Recent Advances in Non-Invasive Digital Nursing Technologies for Chronic Pain Assessment and Management: An Integrative Review.
Review in Journal of advanced nursing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
aimThis integrative review aims to identify what nurses currently offer through digital technology and their success in managing chronic pain.
designAn integrative review guided by Whittemore and Knafl was conducted. DATA SOURCES: Five databases-CINAHL, Medline, PsycINFO, PubMed, and Scopus-were utilised to gather relevant studies from January 2018 to November 2024. REVIEW
methodsSelected studies were assessed using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool and the Joanna Briggs Appraisal Tool. Braun and Clarke's thematic analysis was applied to identify pertinent themes.
resultsDigital nursing technologies such as telehealth and web-based interventions effectively deliver interventions to assess and manage chronic pain; these technologies can reduce healthcare resource utilisation and increase accessibility. This review highlights that nurses commonly deliver exercise, cognitive-behavioural therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy and self-management techniques through digital technology.
conclusionThis review indicates that web-based interventions and telemedicine are the primary digital technologies employed by nurses for chronic pain management providing psychosocial interventions, with evidence supporting their effectiveness. Digital and web-based technology is essential to bridge healthcare access gaps as nurses can provide this successfully with minimal nursing support and cost to the patient. IMPACT: Evidence supports nurses in providing psychosocial interventions for the management of chronic pain, particularly web-based psychosocial interventions. Nurses need to adopt digital technology to improve access to care and patient outcomes and to maintain professional development in an increasingly digital world. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: No patient or public contribution was used for this study.
