Digital technology and teaching methods in nursing education: a scoping review protocol.
Article in BMJ open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionIn a rapidly evolving world shaped by digital transformation, digital technologies are increasingly being used in healthcare. To use them effectively, nursing staff, patients and their caregivers need the appropriate skills. To date, digital literacy in general, digital skills and (digital) technologies have played a minor role in German nursing curricula. In addition, little is known about the use of technology in nursing education and about effective ways to enhance digital competence. This scoping review aims to identify current literature on innovative and experiential-based teaching and learning methods for developing competence in technology and digitalisation for nurses and informal caregivers, as well as digital technologies that are being used in this educational context. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This scoping review, which will be designed and conceptualised using the Joanna Briggs Institute methodology for conducting scoping reviews, will take place from April 2025 to January 2026. The search will be conducted on the databases CINAHL, Emcare, Embase, Medline and ERIC. Screening and extraction will be peer reviewed and follow predefined criteria, as well as opportunities for free-text responses. The extracted data will be analysed using absolute and relative frequencies. Free-text responses will be analysed using qualitative content Analysis. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: As an ethics vote is not required to conduct a scoping review, this will not be obtained. The results will be disseminated via open access publication in a peer-reviewed journal and through presentations at conferences.
