Abstract
ABSTRACT Objective: to verify the validation evidence of an educational booklet focused on the care of patients with vascular accesses for hemodialysis. Method: the methodological study was structured into three different aspects: content validity by expert judges based on calculation of the Content Validity Index; face evaluation by design expert judges; and pilot implementation, carried out with the target population, consisting of 30 patients in a nephrology clinic from Picos, Piauí, Brazil. Data collection took place from December 2020 to April 2021, and included a descriptive and inferential analysis of the findings. Results: the final version of the booklet had 32 pages, and its overall Content Validity Index was 0.88, thus proving its content validity and indicating clarity of the language, theoretical relevance and practical pertinence of the educational technology. The design expert judges rated the booklet as adequate or as with superior quality. The mean of the overall agreement rate by the target audience was 0.99. Conclusion: the educational booklet presented satisfactory validation evidence, based on its face and content, with good potential for use in the clinical practice.
