Development and validation of an educational booklet for postpartum health and well-being

Abstract

Objective: to develop and validate the content and appearance of an educational booklet for the self-care of puerperal women. Methods: methodological research, consisting of five phases. In Phase 1, an integrative review and focus group were carried out to select the content. In Phase 2, the illustrations were created. Phase 3 was the development of the first version of the material. In Phase 4, the content was validated by 26 specialists. In Phase 5, fifteen puerperal women validated the appearance of the second version of the booklet. Results: content and appearance validities obtained validity indexes of 0.80 and 0.96, respectively; and agreement percentage of 94.75% and 100.0%, respectively. Conclusion: adequate indexes of validation of the educational booklet for health and well-being in the postpartum period were obtained.

Produção e validação de material educativo: instrumento educativo para o cuidado domiciliar ao recém-nascido prematuro

“…Com índice ligeiramente inferior a esse, em pesquisa recente, realizada em Fortaleza, Brasil, em que foi validada tecnologia educacional voltada para a sala de amamentação, obteve-se IVC global de 0,81 (39) . Somado a este estudo, outra pesquisa desenvolveu e validou uma cartilha educativa para a saúde e o bem-estar no pós-parto, com IVC global de 0,80 (40) .…”

Educational material production and validity: educational instrument for home care for premature newborns

“…With an index slightly lower than this, recent research, conducted in Fortaleza, Brazil, in which educational technology was validated for the breastfeeding room, obtained overall CVI of 0.81 ( 39 ) . In addition to this study, another study developed and validated an educational booklet for postpartum health and well-being, with an overall CVI of 0.80 ( 40 ) .…”

Instrument about knowledge, attitudes, and practices of pregnant women about the hypertensive disease of pregnancy

“…Igualmente imprescindível ao fato de alcançar valores considerados ideais para validação interna de um artefato (11) , é a necessidade de serem considerados os pontos de melhorias sugeridos pelos juízes; considera-se que quanto maior o número de sugestões, melhor a tecnologia deverá ser revista (16) . O pequeno número de sugestões de mudanças para o artefato validado nesse estudo pode justificar o valor de IVC global obtido, o qual é superior a uma pesquisa de desenvolvimento tecnológico realizada recentemente (17) e similar a outra (18) .…”
