Evidence predominantly reflected postoperative care involving multicomponent and nutrition\u2010focused interventions, whereas evidence for nonsurgical treatments and social support interventions remained limited. Qualitative evidence revealed patients' need for multidimensional support across individual, relational, and system levels. Nurses' primary roles included guidance and counselling, whereas evaluation and feedback roles were least reported. Evidence gaps existed in care coordination, particularly for hospital\u2010to\u2010community transitions, with most studies extending only to outpatient follow\u2010up rather than home and community settings.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n Patients with oesophageal cancer require multifaceted, continuous transitional nursing care across the care continuum, yet current interventions inadequately address relational, social, and system\u2010level needs. Evidence gaps exist between patients' experienced needs and available interventions, particularly in hospital\u2010to\u2010community care coordination and nonsurgical treatment pathways.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Implications for the Profession and\/or Patient Care<\/jats:title>\n Clinical nurses should assess the social support systems of patients with oesophageal cancer and their ability to utilize community resources during discharge education. Nursing management should incorporate evaluation and feedback as a core responsibility in transitional care and formalize communication between hospital and community services. Future studies are recommended to target nonsurgical populations and to address unmet coordination needs.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Reporting Method<\/jats:title>\n PRISMA\u2010ScR.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Patient or Public Contribution<\/jats:title>\n No patient or public contribution.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Trial and Protocol Registration<\/jats:title>\n \n Open Science Framework (\n http:\/\/doi.org\/10.17605\/OSF.IO\/86BGR<\/jats:ext-link>\n ).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Impact<\/jats:title>\n \n \n \n Identifies key gaps in transitional nursing care for oesophageal cancer patients across care settings and treatment modalities.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n \n Informs the design of more comprehensive, patient\u2010centered transitional care approaches.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n \n Supports improvements in hospital\u2010to\u2010community care continuity and coordination.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n \n Guides future research and policy initiatives to better address complex patient needs.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n <\/jats:list>\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/jocn.70553","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,15]],"date-time":"2026-10-15T06:00:52Z","timestamp":1792044052000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Transitional Nursing Care for Oesophageal Cancer Patients: A Scoping Review"],"prefix":"10.1111","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0001-6797-6716","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yeonju","family":"Kim","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Nursing Yonsei University Seoul Republic of Korea"},{"name":"Brain Korea 21 FOUR Project Yonsei University Seoul Republic of Korea"},{"name":"School of Nursing University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia Pennsylvania USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Boseul","family":"Cho","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Critical Care Nursing Asan Medical Center Seoul Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kenrick","family":"Cato","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Nursing University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia Pennsylvania USA"},{"name":"Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Philadelphia Pennsylvania USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4694-0359","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mona","family":"Choi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Nursing Yonsei University Seoul Republic of Korea"},{"name":"Mo\u2010Im Kim Nursing Research Institute Yonsei University Seoul Republic of Korea"},{"name":"JBI Yonsei Evidence Based Nursing Centre of Korea University of Adelaide Adelaide South Australia Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_14_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ejon.2024.102638"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.32604\/ONCOLOGIE.2021.016420"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00520\u2010017\u20103801\u2010x"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1188\/22.CJON.239\u2010243"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/NCC.0000000000001359"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/1364557032000119616"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5596\/c14\u2010016"},{"issue":"2","key":"e_1_2_14_9_1","first-page":"1299","article-title":"Rehabilitation and Quality of Life Improvement of Patients With Esophageal Carcinoma Surgery by Psychological Intervention","volume":"13","author":"Baoyindeligeer Z.
