This study aimed to map and analyze the available evidence on the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) during pregnancy and their implications for obstetric nursing.<br> <b>Methods:</b> A scoping review was conducted according to JBI guidance and reported in accordance with PRISMA-ScR. The initial searches were conducted in December 2023 and updated in May 2026, covering records indexed from database inception through May 2026 in MEDLINE, EMBASE, LILACS, Scopus, and ScienceDirect. Controlled and uncontrolled terms based on MeSH, DeCS, and Emtree were used. Primary and secondary studies employing quantitative, qualitative, or mixed-methods approaches were eligible, with no restrictions on language or publication period. The findings were synthesized descriptively and thematically.<br> <b>Results:</b> Twenty-five studies were included. The evidence indicates that ICTs, including mobile applications, websites, and digital platforms, facilitate access to health information, promote self-care, and improve adherence to prenatal care. However, their effectiveness depends on three factors: digital literacy, information reliability, and integration into professional care. Barriers include digital inequality, low health literacy, information overload, cultural and linguistic limitations, and a lack of content regulation. Despite these challenges, benefits such as increased knowledge of warning signs, greater self-efficacy, and support for decision-making were observed.<br> <b>Conclusion</b>: ICTs play an important role in supporting maternal care and strengthening health literacy during pregnancy. Their effective use depends on the interaction among digital literacy, information reliability, and professional mediation.</span></span></div> Pregnant Women (Pregnant People), Pregnancy, Prenatal Care, Antenatal Care (Prenatal Care), Health Literacy, EHealth (Telemedicine) Literacy, Digital Health Literacy, Information Technology 0 0 http://nmj.goums.ac.ir/browse.php?a_code=A-10-2418-1&slc_lang=en&sid=1 Emanuela Gomes Falcão emanuela.falcao@aluno.uece.br 100319475328460018305 0009-0009-4097-9819 Yes Programa de Pós-graduação em Cuidados Clínicos em Enfermagem e Saúde (PPCCLIS), Universidade Estadual do Ceará (UECE), Fortaleza, CE, Brazil Antônio Alves de Sousa Filho niofillho@gmail.com 100319475328460018306 100319475328460018306 No Programa de Pós-graduação em Cuidados Clínicos em Enfermagem e Saúde (PPCCLIS), Universidade Estadual do Ceará (UECE), Fortaleza, CE, Brazil Edina Maria Araújo lanasofia11@gmail.com 100319475328460018307 100319475328460018307 No Programa de Pós-graduação da Universidade Aberta do Brasil, Universidade Estadual de Roraima (UERR), Roraima, RO, Brazil Saiwori de Jesus Silva Bezerra dos Anjos saiwori.anjos@uece.br 100319475328460018308 100319475328460018308 No Programa de Pós-graduação em Cuidados Clínicos em Enfermagem e Saúde (PPCCLIS), Universidade Estadual do Ceará (UECE), Fortaleza, CE, Brazil
