Using safe tools, such as institutional educational videos, in order to better inform about the prevention against coronavirus has become a routine in digital media. This study aims to retrieve publications in national and international literature of educational videos aimed at mental health care to minimize the psychological distress caused by the covid-19 pandemic. Thus, an integrative review was carried out, using the Prism method, where the following search strategy was used: “video” AND “Covid-19” AND “mental health”. Searches for studies were performed in the following electronic databases: Virtual Health Library (VHL), Science Direct, Web of Science and CINAHL. There were 10 studies left for analysis after the research refinement steps. The results showed that educational videos promote social support and self-help for people of different age groups. In addition, it minimizes depression and anxiety generated by the fear of contracting the infection, reduces the feeling of loneliness and serves as a mental health therapy, in addition to being viable, effective and accessible for the majority of the population.
