Introducción: La epilepsia es la enfermedad neurológica más frecuente en niños. Dado que estos permanecen una gran parte de su vida en el colegio, es necesario que sea un entorno seguro donde puedan desarrollarse a nivel físico, mental y social. La presencia de la enfermera escolar en las escuelas es esencial para proporcionar esta seguridad mediante su atención y cuidado, así como para la capacitación de los docentes para actuar en caso de emergencias médicas, como son las convulsiones. Objetivo: Identificar las necesidades de los niños con diagnóstico de epilepsia en el entorno escolar así como el rol que la enfermera escolar cumple en su atención y cuidado. Metodología: Se realizó una revisión narrativa a través de las bases de datos: PubMed, Cinahl, Web of Science, Cochrare Library y el buscador académico Google scholar. Se utilizó el lenguaje controlado (DeCs y MeSH) y se combinó mediante los operadores booleanos. Para la selección de artículos se establecieron criterios de inclusión y exclusión. Resultados: Se seleccionaron 22 artículos, a partir de los cuales se expusieron los resultados divididos en: necesidades de los niños con epilepsia escolarizados en fase estable, necesidades de los niños con epilepsia escolarizados en el manejo de una convulsión y el rol de la enfermera escolar. Conclusiones: Los niños con diagnóstico de epilepsia necesitan que su entorno conozca su condición y sepan actuar ante una convulsión. Para ello es necesaria la capacitación continuada del entorno escolar y esta capacitación debería ser recibida por parte de profesionales sanitarios cualificados, como es la enfermera escolar. A su vez, ésta debe realizar intervenciones educativas para disminuir el gran estigma que rodea a la epilepsia.
Introduction: Epilepsy is the most common neurological disease in children. Since these children spend a large part of their lives at school, it is necessary for it to be a safe environment where they can develop physically, mentally and socially. The presence of the school nurse in schools is essential to provide this safety through their attention and care, as well as to train teachers to act in case of medical emergencies, such as seizures. Objective: To identify the needs of children with a diagnosis of epilepsy in the school environment as well as the role of the school nurse in their attention and care. Methodology: A narrative review was conducted through the databases: PubMed, Cinahl, Web of Science, Cochrare Library and the academic search engine Google scholar. Controlled language (DeCs and MeSH) was used and combined using Boolean operators. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were established for the selection of articles. Results: 22 articles were selected, from which the results were exposed divided into: needs of children with epilepsy schooled in stable phase, needs of children with epilepsy schooled in the management of a seizure and the role of the school nurse. Conclusions: Children with a diagnosis of epilepsy need their environment to be aware of their condition and to know how to act in the event of a seizure. This requires continuous training of the school environment and this training should be provided by qualified health professionals, such as the school nurse. In turn, the school nurse should carry out educational interventions to reduce the stigma surrounding epilepsy.
