This article aims to understand the implications of information and communication technologies (ICT) in the process of permanent education in health. This is an integrative review accomplished through the search in the Virtual Health Library (BVS) and the Scientific Eletronic Library Online (SciELO), using: the descriptors “information technology” and “distance education”, and the keywords “continuing education” and “health education”. From the application of the inclusion and exclusion criteria, remained 15 articles, which were analyzed by levels of evidence and divided into two categories: “the insertion of the ICT in the process of permanent education in health using distance education” and “the relation between tutor/participant as facilitator in the process of permanent education in health through the ICT”. In short, ICT have positive implications in the process of continuing education of health professionals, despite some challenges to be overcome.
