Abstract
This study aimed to analyze published evidence about how the Internet is used in mental health interventions for nurses. This integrative literature review searched MEDLINE (PubMed), Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS), Base de Dados em Enfermagem (BDENF), and the Web of Science. Data was collected in July 2020. Six articles addressed the research question - "What Internet-based mental health interventions exist for nurses?" -, of which five were randomized clinical trials (2 protocols and 3 completed trials) and 1 was a cohort study. Identified intervention programs consisted of 4 interactive webpages and 2 smartphone apps, based on cognitive behavioral and holistic approaches. The intervention programs were effective in reducing stress, anxiety, and depression among nurses; however, there was a lack of scientific evidence on the subject and a research gap regarding other approaches.
