Abstract

Systemic arterial hypertension is a cardiovascular disease with clinical manifestations of multifactorial origin that constitutes one of the greatest public health problems today. Educational technologies are health education resources that seek to expand users' knowledge and favor changes in life habits. In this perspective, this study aims to Know the educational technologies validated for people with systemic arterial hypertension and their contributions to health management. This is an integrative literature review carried out in March 2022 using the words “Educational Technology and Hypertension” in the Latin American Health Sciences Literature database and “Educational Technology” and “Arterial hypertension” in the SciVerse Scopus and in the Scientific Electronic Library Online Portal, totaling seven studies, with no time frame. The analysis was performed through the analysis of evidence and thematic. The contributions of scientific productions on educational technologies for people with systemic arterial hypertension refer to the learning experiences shared by exchanging information, establishing bonds and sharing doubts for behavioral changes related to the practice of physical exercises, healthy eating, self-care and prevention and/or control of risk factors. The health area produces academic works related to the theme, however, in an incipient way about the validation of educational technologies for people with systemic arterial hypertension.
