摘要
Healthcare workers’ mental health has been a topic of growing interest. However, despite the significant prevalence of mental health disorders in this population, there are many barriers to care. The recent development of e-Health might present solutions to these challenges, allowing the prevention and early detection of mental health disorders. This paper aims to provide an overview of the existing research on e-Health applications focused on healthcare workers’ mental health. A scoping review was conducted based on PRISMA-ScR guidelines. A total of 6 databases (PubMed, Science Direct, Web of Science, Scopus, IEEE Explore, ACM Digital Library) were searched from inception to December 2022 without limits on the dates and types of publications. Studies were included in the review if they had incorporated e-Health in any application to healthcare workers’ mental health and had been published in English, Portuguese, or Spanish. In addition, publication-related information, mental health disorders studied, population profession, method of recruitment, and type of e-Health intervention or usage were extracted from each study. A total of 7 articles were included in this review. Two types of studies were found. The first type of study was strictly observational, while the other involved interventions utilizing e-Health to promote mental health improvement. There is a small number of studies pointing to a gap in the literature on this topic, with a necessity of further studies, considering studies design that mitigates the heterogeneities observed in this review. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2024.
