INTRODUCTION The use of educational technologies to mediate the education process among health professionals regarding health interventions expands access to information, facilitates the teaching-learning process, favors the dissemination of knowledge, and causes changes in health care, through devices that influence positive perspectives on the standard of health(1-2). Studies indicate that, for nursing education, the use of information technology facilitates learning from a collaborative and constructivist perspective. In addition, the use of audiovisual resources, when compared to written language, has a greater impact on learning(3-4). From this perspective, the educational video (EV) has been a rich, interesting, and complex resource that helps in the promotion of education. When properly constructed, the material becomes a foundation to support effective understanding and reflection. However, it requires greater care in the structuring and organization of information. Such pedagogical resource has been used in different ways in teaching-learning environments for the explanation of concepts and the vehicle of information, among others(5). It is also noteworthy that access to the EV, available on digital platforms, contributes to reaching the target audience, regardless of their geographical location and time, allowing nurses to update on the subject, with positive effects on the care provided. There are several methodologies used to develop an EV, but in general, three stages are implemented: pre-production (preparation and validation of a script and storyboard, which takes into account the target population and shooting strategies), production (recording and editing of the video, with the use of audiovisual resources) and post-production (review of the video by the target audience)(6). A study whose objective was to validate an EV script and storyboard for an educational intervention on nursing care aimed at the prevention and management of syphilis showed that the educational material produced can contribute to a greater understanding of the issues involving the occurrence of syphilis, its prevention, diagnosis and treatment to nursing professionals. It also provided health service users with the choice of infection prevention methods, as well as the perception of the benefits of their self-care, with regard to behavior change and safe sexual practices(7). Other studies (8-9) showed that the use of EVs contributes to the advancement of knowledge in nursing, the acquisition of practical skills of nursing students and professionals, and methodologically supports the development of other EVs in the health area. In this context, it is proposed to analyze in the scientific literature the methodologies used by nurses in the production of educational videos. It is hoped that the results will be useful both for teaching and for health care in nursing. METHOD This is an integrative literature review, a research method that enables the search, critical evaluation, and synthesis of the knowledge produced on a given subject and also reveals gaps in scientific production that guide future research. In addition, this type of research method makes it possible to identify which professionals investigate the proposed topic the most, and, in general, to verify the current knowledge on the chosen topic and the implications of this knowledge in professional practice(10-11). The study will be guided by the following steps: elaboration of the research question, sampling, categorization of studies, evaluation of studies included in the integrative review, interpretation of results, and synthesis of results(10-11). The review protocol will be registered in the OpenScience Framework (https://osf.io/). For the elaboration of the research question, the PICO strategy was adopted(12), where “P” referred to the study population (nurses); “I” to the intervention studied, or to the variable of interest (educational video); “C” for comparison with another intervention (not applicable in this study); and “O” to the outcome of interest (methodologies used for the production and validation of educational film and video). Thus, the following question was elaborated: “What are the methodologies used by nurses in the production of educational videos?” It is also noteworthy that the PICO strategy will be the framework for the construction of the search strategy through the use of controlled and uncontrolled descriptors. The search for studies will be performed by two independent researchers, after recording the review protocol. The selection of studies will be based on the following inclusion criteria: productions in English, Portuguese or Spanish, primary studies that address the use of methodologies used for the production of educational videos, involving nurses. Exclusion criteria: case studies and editorials, theses and dissertations, and studies that do not clearly address the methodological process of developing educational videos. The selected databases will be the National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health (PubMed), Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL); Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences (LILACS). It should be noted that a search will be carried out in the reference list, with the reading of the bibliographic references of all selected articles to identify new studies. The identification and definition of the descriptors were based on the identification of the controlled vocabulary in the Descriptors in Health Sciences (DeCS), in the Medical Subject Headings (MeSH), and in Titles CINAHL, which are: Nursing; Instructional Film and Video; Planning Technic; Validation Study. For the design of the search strategy, the Boolean operators AND and OR will be used, according to the PICO strategy. In addition to the controlled descriptors, the corresponding synonyms will be identified. Below (Table 1) is a presentation of the search strategy proposed in the databases of this study. Table 1. Search strategy and planned databases in the integrative review Database Search Strategy PubMed ((("Nursing"[Mesh] OR "Nursing" OR "Nursings")) AND (("Instructional Film and Video" [Publication Type] OR "Instructional Film and Video" OR "Instructional Films and Videos" OR "Instructional Films and Video" OR "Instruction" OR "Audio-Video Demonstration" OR "Audiovisual Demonstration" OR "Video-Audio Demonstration"))) AND (("methods" [Subheading] OR "methods" OR "techniques" OR "procedures" OR "methodology" OR "Planning Techniques"[Mesh] OR "Planning Techniques" OR "Planning Technique" OR "Planning Technic" OR "Planning Technics" OR "Planning Methodologies" OR "Planning Methodology" OR "Planning Theories" OR "Planning Theory" OR "Validation Study" [Publication Type] OR "Validation Study" OR "Validation Studies")) CINAHL ("Nursing" OR "Nursings") AND ("Instructional Film and Video" OR "Instructional Films and Videos" OR "Instructional Films and Video" OR "Instruction" OR "Audio-Video Demonstration" OR "Audiovisual Demonstration" OR "Video-Audio Demonstration") AND ("methods" OR "techniques" OR "procedures" OR "methodology" OR "Planning Techniques" OR "Planning Technique" OR "Planning Technic" OR "Planning Technics" OR "Planning Methodologies" OR "Planning Methodology" OR "Planning Theories" OR "Planning Theory" OR "Validation Study" OR "Validation Studies") LILACS ("Enfermagem" OR "Nursing" OR "Enfermería") AND ("Filme e Vídeo Educativo" OR "Instructional Film and Video" OR "Película y Video Educativos" OR "Demonstração Audiovisual" OR "Demonstração com Vídeo e Áudio" OR "Demonstração com Áudio e Vídeo" OR "Filme e Vídeo Educacional" OR "Filme e Vídeo Educativos" OR "Filme e Vídeo Instrucional" OR "Filmes Educativos" OR "Filmes e Vídeos Educacionais" OR "Filmes e Vídeos Educativos" OR "Filmes e Vídeos Instrucionais" OR "Filmes e Vídeos Instrutivos" OR "Instrução" OR "Mídia Visual" OR "Vídeo e Filme Educacional" OR "Vídeo e Filme Educativo" OR "Vídeo e Filmes Educativos" OR "Vídeos Educativos" OR "Vídeos e Filmes Educativos") AND ("Métodos" OR "Methods" OR "Métodos" OR "Estudo Metodológico" OR "Estudos Metodológicos" OR "Método" OR "Procedimento" OR "Procedimentos" OR "Técnica" OR "Técnicas" OR "Técnicas de Planejamento" OR "Planning Techniques" OR "Técnicas de Planificación" OR "Métodos de Planejamento" OR "Planejamento Operacional" OR "Teorias de Planejamento" OR "Estudo de Validação" OR "Validation Study" OR "Estudio de Validación" OR "Estudos de Validação") Source: the author himself After implementing the search strategy in each database, the results will be exported to the EndNote X7 reference manager software (Desktop version)(13), in which duplicates will be removed. For the eligibility of articles, records will be exported to the Rayyan web app(14). In the first phase of selection, the titles and abstracts of the studies will be read, and in the second phase, the full article. Both phases will be performed by two reviewers who will make the selection of studies in a masked way, and in case of divergence, a third reviewer will be called. For data extraction, a script built by the authors will be used, which will include identification data such as the title of the study, year of publication, author(s), and the synthesis of each study, with the description of the objective, methodological design and main found. For the evaluation of the included studies, the methodological approach and research design of the studies will be identified, using the terminology indicated by the authors themselves. Next, the classification of evidence according to different research questions will be used(12). And finally, an analysis of the methodological quality will be carried out through the tool proposed by Johns Hopkins Nursing Evidence-Based Practice(15). The synthesis of the results will be carried out in a descriptive way, with a summary presentation of each study in the form of tables, in addition to the identification of knowledge gaps and directions for future research in this area. Finally, the results will be presented according to the guide Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA)(16). As this is an Integrative Literature Review Protocol, there is no need for consideration by the Research Ethics Committee. REFERENCES 1. Russo LX, Brambilla MA, Costa CKF, Cunha MS.
