Summary
Mobile devices enhance nursing students' professional skills, particularly clinical abilities, through apps and digital tools. Further research is needed to integrate diverse skills using a single educational platform.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Digital Health
- Educational Technology
Background:
- Mobile devices are increasingly integrated into healthcare education.
- Developing professional skills is crucial for nursing students' competency.
- Existing literature needs mapping to understand mobile device impact on nursing skills.
Purpose of the Study:
- To systematically map scientific literature on mobile device utilization for nursing student professional skill development.
Main Methods:
- A scoping review guided by Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) recommendations.
- Inclusion of six databases and gray literature, with rigorous study selection and data extraction.
- Descriptive, tabular, and graphical presentation of extracted data.
Main Results:
- Analysis of 13 studies (from 264 identified) primarily from Asia, with interventions lasting 1-12 weeks.
- Predominant use of mobile applications (Apps) to develop clinical skills, techniques, procedures, decision-making, and problem-solving.
- Mobile devices demonstrate potential in enhancing learning dynamics and effectiveness.
Conclusions:
- Mobile devices significantly contribute to improving nursing students' clinical capabilities and learning processes.
- A knowledge gap exists regarding the integration of multiple professional skills via a single digital educational tool.
