This scoping review protocol outlines a plan to examine mobile health (mHealth) applications for wound care. It will identify and summarize existing self-supporting mobile wound care applications used by nurses.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Informatics
- Digital Health
- Wound Care Management
Background:
- Mobile health (mHealth) is increasingly vital for computerizing wound care globally.
- Self-supporting mobile wound care applications are emerging tools for nurses.
Purpose of the Study:
- To present a transparent process for a scoping review protocol.
- To systematically search and review evidence on mobile wound care applications for nurses.
Main Methods:
- Adherence to Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodology for scoping reviews.
- Comprehensive literature search across multiple databases (MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, etc.).
- Independent screening of titles, abstracts, and full texts by two reviewers; data extraction using a pre-designed form.
Main Results:
- An overview of current self-supporting mobile wound care applications used by nurses will be generated.
- Identification of existing applications and current nursing knowledge regarding their utilization, development, and evaluation.
Conclusions:
- Synthesis of available literature on the impacts of mobile wound care applications.
- Provides a foundation for understanding the landscape of mHealth in nursing wound care.

Nursing Clinical Information System
A Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS) is a specialized type of healthcare information system tailored to meet the unique needs of nursing practice. It incorporates the principles of nursing informatics to streamline information management and improve the quality of care delivery.
Critical attributes of NCIS include:
Peripheral Artery Disease V: Postoperative Nursing Management
Specialized Care Centers and Settings-II
Rural health centers are specialized care facilities in remote locations with very few medical personnel. The primary care providers who run the centers are mostly Registered Nurse Practitioners. Here, emergency treatment is provided to critically ill or injured patients before they are transferred to the closest hospital. Fortunately, due to advancement in technology, many rural healthcare facilities and professionals have easy access to diagnostic and treatment...
