Abstract
In parallel with the development and design of different technological advances, competencies in nursing have advanced. With the development of robotics, it is expected that nursing robotic competencies will also increase. The aim of this study is to review the competencies in nursing robotics. A review was conducted between January 2017 and December 2023. The search strategy was carried out in the MEDLINE database (through PubMed). This review explores the developmental competencies in nursing robotics and informatics. The data extraction in this review included an intentional search for competencies and learning outcomes in engineering and robotic programs. A total of 340 competencies and program outcomes were reviewed. The synthesis of the data established a total of 17 developmental competencies in nursing robotics based on this knowledge extraction, which we organized into five categories: assessment, diagnosis, planning, intervention (implementation) and evaluation. This review suggests that nursing robotic competencies for the development of care robotics are still scarce, and there is an opportunity for the development of competencies and the definition of new roles in the area of nursing informatics in order to adapt to the new health care demands of society.
