Development and validation of educational hypermedia for family members and caregivers of people with epidermolysis bullosa.

Abstract

to develop educational hypermedia to support the care of people with epidermolysis bullosa; and validate its content, functionality, usability, and efficiency. methodological study, based on five phases: analysis and planning; modeling; implementation; evaluation; and distribution. Hypermedia was evaluated by expert judges, using the content validity index, index of agreement, and exact binomial distribution test, considering p > 0.05 and 0.80 agreement ratio to estimate the statistical reliability of CVI and IOA. in the validation with the judges, hypermedia presented excellent indices of total content validity (CVIt=0.99) and agreement for functionality, usability, and efficiency (IOA=100%), with p > 0.05 in all evaluated items. the developed hypermedia was considered adequate, with good screens, descriptions, and animations, presenting itself clearly and objectively to be used by patients with epidermolysis bullosa and their family members/caregivers.
