Background: The use of educational health technologies in virtual environments as a teaching and learning strategy has been increasingly used. The development of nursing rehabilitation protocols allows nurses access to knowledge, contributing to the learning process.
Objective: To describe the process of developing an educational technology, focusing on neurogenic bowel rehabilitation, for use in the teaching-learning process.
Method: methodological study, carried out in four phases: survey of the theoretical framework, planning, textual insertion and diagramming and layout. The information for the development of the technology was obtained by searching for materials based on scientific evidence, the texts underwent vernacular and grammatical correction and the information was deposited on the Canvas® platform.
Results: The technology consists of flowcharts, figures and tables containing the definition, cause and classification of neurogenic bowel, bowel emptying manoeuvres, guidelines on diet and physical exercise and a care plan mapped out in the light of Wanda Horta's Basic Human Needs Theory.
Discussion: The use of continuing education strategies with nursing professionals is essential to have access to health updates. In this context, methodological research can enrich and innovate nursing educational actions, promoting an environment conducive to the teaching and learning of assistive interventions
Conclusion: The conclusion is that the technology developed could facilitate the teaching-learning process for nurses in the clinical practice of caring for people with neurogenic intestines, making it an option for a teaching resource to be used as a health education strategy.
