Limited research exists examining video communication among cognitively intact nursing home residents to connect with family. This scoping review evaluated existing literature for video communication usage with nursing home residents, family, and nursing homes. A comprehensive search was completed using PubMed and EBSCOhost (including AgeLine, CINAHL, and PsycINFO) between 1972 and 2016 to locate English-language articles. The analysis identified five eligible studies (four involved an intervention, one assessed family views) meeting inclusion criteria. Findings included, seeing family members separated by distance, seeing other parts of their life, and visually monitoring resident's health. Participants described frustration with technology limitations, such as video or audio lag. Current literature does not show a comprehensive assessment of video communication usage for residents, family, and nursing homes. Future studies should address the complexity of the intersection of the person, nursing home, and families in terms of potential benefits and capability of video communication use with residents.
针对认知功能正常的养老院居民与家人进行视频沟通的研究十分有限。本研究通过范围综述评估了养老院居民、家属和养老院使用视频沟通的现有文献。本研究于 1972 年至 2016 年期间，在 PubMed 和 EBSCOhost（包括 AgeLine、CINAHL 和 PsycINFO）上进行了全面检索，以定位英文文章。分析确定了符合纳入标准的五项合格研究（其中四项涉及干预，一项评估了家属意见）。研究结果包括，与远距离的家人见面、看到他们生活的其他方面、以及直观监测居民的健康状况。参与者表示对技术限制感到沮丧，例如视频或音频延迟。现有文献并未全面评估居民、家属和养老院使用视频沟通的情况。未来的研究应该解决人与养老院和家庭相互交织的复杂性问题，从潜在的利益和视频沟通使用能力方面来评估居民的情况。
