Summary
WeChat-based mobile health (mHealth) interventions effectively enhance women's health outcomes, improving information access and self-management. This review highlights the growing use of WeChat for personalized women's healthcare.
Area of Science:
- Digital Health
- Women's Health
- Nursing Informatics
Background:
- Mobile health (mHealth) offers personalized monitoring and guidance for women's health.
- WeChat, a dominant social media platform in China, shows promise for mHealth applications.
- Systematic evidence on WeChat's use in women's healthcare is currently limited.
Purpose of the Study:
- To systematically review WeChat-based nursing interventions in women's mHealth.
- To clarify the application status, intervention modalities, and target populations.
- To evaluate the effectiveness of these interventions.
Main Methods:
- Comprehensive literature search across major databases (e.g., PubMed, Scopus) from 2011-2024.
- Data extraction and quality assessment by two independent reviewers.
- Bibliometric analysis using VOSviewer and InCites to analyze trends and collaborations.
Main Results:
- 31 studies (2014-2024), mostly randomized controlled trials, utilized WeChat groups, official accounts, applets, and private chats.
- Key focus areas included prenatal care, breast cancer, gynecological cancer, and gestational diabetes mellitus.
- Publications surged post-2018, with most studies exhibiting high risk of bias due to non-blinding.
Conclusions:
- WeChat interventions enhance women's health by improving information access, self-management, and communication.
- This review addresses a research gap in WeChat mHealth for women's health.
- Future research should prioritize methodological rigor, long-term follow-up, and integration with other health technologies.

01:30Current Trends in Nursing II
Trends in nursing are multifactorial and associated with changes in society, within the nursing profession, and in other professions. Notably, telehealth and remote nursing contribute to successful healthcare delivery for numerous patients and help reduce stress for nurses due to nursing shortages. Nurses can reach patients, monitor their conditions, and interact with them using computers, audio, visual accessories, and telephones—for example, remote patient monitoring systems. Likewise,...
01:29Nursing Interventions II: Selecting and Classifying the Nursing Interventions
Creating and executing a nursing diagnosis helps nurses plan care and guide patient, family, and community interventions. They are developed based on a patient's physical evaluation and support measuring the outcomes. It is not recommended to select random interventions throughout the planning process. Instead, consider the following six essential factors when choosing interventions:
01:27Nursing Clinical Information System
Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS)
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:

01:03Nursing Interventions I: Taxonomy of Nursing Interventions
Nursing interventions are chosen as part of the planning process to achieve patient outcomes. Once nursing diagnoses are determined, the goals and outcomes are specified, then the nursing interventions are selected and individualized according to the patient's situation.
A nursing intervention is a treatment or action based on scientific concepts and knowledge from the nursing, behavioral, and physical sciences. Identifying and prioritizing nursing interventions based on the desired outcome is...

01:15Nursing Implementation
Implementation is the execution of the nursing care plan developed during the planning phase.
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.

01:25Role of Communication in the Nursing Process I: Assessment and Diagnosis
The nursing process uses scientific reasoning, problem-solving, and critical thinking to guide nurses in providing patients with appropriate care. This process is a systematic approach to recognize, avoid, and treat current or potential health issues while promoting the patient's well-being.
The nursing process considers the patient's emotional and physical well-being. The process can be repeated or stopped at any point if judged essential. Assessment is the first step in the nursing process.
