Objective: Central venous access devices (CVADs) are essential to the modern management of patients with hematological malignancies and solid tumors. Educational programs play a crucial role in promoting appropriate patient actions to support patient safety during hospitalization and homecare. This review aimed to identify literature concerning educational interventions to promote patients’ actions to overcome CVAD-related problems and improve self-monitoring and self-management. Materials and Methods: Documentary evaluation of international databases, such as PubMed, CINAHL, Scopus and Cochrane. Searching for data on population, context and concept regarding CVAD self-management. The extracted data was subject to thematic analysis. The following scoping reviews were developed using the five-stage framework outlined by Arksey and O’Malley, and advanced by Levac and colleagues. Results: Of the 2802 articles identified, 19 research articles were selected in this review. Educational programs have been shown to improve CVAD self management, to decrease stress and anxiety related to their use, and to reduce the onset of complications. In addition, nurses have proven to be the professional reference figure for educational interventions. Conclusions: The results of the study lead to the conclusion that programs aimed at improving selfcare and reducing the onset of complications in patients living with chronic and debilitating diseases should be made available to a larger portion of individuals. Both generic and specific programs are needed, in the different contexts of home and hospital, for the short and long term, in order to ameliorate participants’ abilities. The results of this study should, therefore, encourage health professionals to plan, carry out, and evaluate the establishment of educational programs with patient participation.

Abstract

Objective: Central venous access devices (CVADs) are essential to the modern management of patients with hematological malignancies and solid tumors. Educational programs play a crucial role in promoting appropriate patient actions to support patient safety during hospitalization and homecare. This review aimed to identify literature concerning educational interventions to promote patients’ actions to overcome CVAD-related problems and improve self-monitoring and self-management. Materials and Methods: Documentary evaluation of international databases, such as PubMed, CINAHL, Scopus and Cochrane. Searching for data on population, context and concept regarding CVAD self-management. The extracted data was subject to thematic analysis. The following scoping reviews were developed using the five-stage framework outlined by Arksey and O’Malley, and advanced by Levac and colleagues. Results: Of the 2802 articles identified, 19 research articles were selected in this review. Educational programs have been shown to improve CVAD self management, to decrease stress and anxiety related to their use, and to reduce the onset of complications. In addition, nurses have proven to be the professional reference figure for educational interventions. Conclusions: The results of the study lead to the conclusion that programs aimed at improving selfcare and reducing the onset of complications in patients living with chronic and debilitating diseases should be made available to a larger portion of individuals. Both generic and specific programs are needed, in the different contexts of home and hospital, for the short and long term, in order to ameliorate participants’ abilities. The results of this study should, therefore, encourage health professionals to plan, carry out, and evaluate the establishment of educational programs with patient participation.
