| Abstract: | E-cigarettes have rapidly gained popularity among youth in recent years. This scoping review identifies opportunities for school nurses to incorporate e-cigarette prevention strategies into their practice and identifies gaps for future research in school nursing evidence-based practice. Using the methodological framework developed by Arksey and O'Malley and advanced by Levac et al., a literature review was conducted using PubMed, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health (CINAHL), and Education Resources Information Center (ERIC) databases. A total of 15 articles were included in the final review. Articles for inclusion addressed interventions aimed at reducing e-cigarette use in K-12 schools. The results highlight two general types of school-based interventions: (1) universal e-cigarette prevention education and (2) targeted e-cigarette use-cessation programs. Each of these types of interventions presents a leadership opportunity for school nurses to engage within all domains of their scope of practice. |
