Abstract
Objective: to develop and validate the content of a leaflet to guide health professionals in the assessment, prevention and treatment of friction injuries. Method: To create the leaflet, an integrative literature review was carried out using the MEDLINE®, Lilacs and SciELO virtual library databases. Articles published between 2019 and 2023 were researched. The leaflet was validated by 98 nurses who were experts in the field, using the Delphi technique. For data analysis, the Content Validity Coefficient test was adopted. Results: in the first evaluation cycle, the Content Validity Coefficient varied between 0.75 and 0.86. After corrections requested by the judges, the leaflet was resent for the second evaluation cycle, with the related Content Validity Coefficient varying between 0.93 and 1.0. Conclusion: the leaflet to guide health professionals in the assessment, prevention and treatment of friction injuries was evaluated by specialist nurses in the field, who reached a consensus regarding the content in the second evaluation cycle.
