Resumo

Introdução: A Mpox (infeção pelo vírus Monkeypox) é uma doença infecciosa emergente que, após o surto de 2022, se tornou um desafio global de saúde pública. Os enfermeiros têm papel central na prevenção e gestão da doença; contudo, a preparação dos estudantes de enfermagem permanece pouco explorada.

Objetivo: Mapear a evidência sobre conhecimento, educação, compreensão e conscientização dos estudantes de enfermagem relativamente à Mpox.

Métodos: Revisão scoping conduzida segundo o Joanna Briggs Institute, concluída em setembro de 2025. A pesquisa incluiu bases de dados internacionais e literatura em português, inglês e espanhol.

Resultados: Foram incluídos oito estudos publicados entre 2023 e 2025. Verificaram-se níveis de conhecimento variáveis e insuficientes. A compreensão revelou-se limitada e a conscientização instável, muitas vezes condicionada por fatores externos. Intervenções educativas, presenciais e digitais, mostraram melhorias consistentes em conhecimento, atitudes e preparação.

Conclusão: A integração curricular de metodologias ativas e de literacia digital em saúde é essencial para consolidar conhecimento e preparar futuros enfermeiros para responder eficazmente a surtos de doenças infecciosas emergentes.
