Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To map care strategies for children with tracheostomies in school settings. METHOD: A scoping review was conducted following the JBI® methodology. A comprehensive search strategy was employed across health, education, and gray literature databases in July 2024. The included studies described guidelines, care policies, and the experiences of family members, healthcare professionals, and education professionals regarding the care of children (6-12 years old) with tracheostomies who regularly attend school. RESULTS: The 30 texts retrieved that met the eligibility criteria identified three models of school healthcare: family-based, health-education intersectoral, and school health outpatient-based. CONCLUSION: The successful inclusion of children with tracheostomies in educational settings necessitates intersectoral health-education coordination in the development of guidelines.
