Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic caused tremendous disruption of health systems worldwide. Patients with diabetes are at a high risk of COVID-19 exposure because face-to-face consultations have been standard for diabetes management. This study describes the development and validation of a mobile application for nursing students on diabetes education during the COVID-19 pandemic. The application was developed by a certified diabetes educator nurse and by a freelance programmer and, in the next step, validated in terms of content and appearance by a group of expert nurses on diabetes (n = 29), nursing students (n = 40), and information technology experts (n = 11). Validity indexes of 0.99 for content and 0.92 for appearance were obtained, and usability values of 78.9 (±15.3) and 78.2 (±10.8) were obtained from nursing and information technology experts, respectively. The self-assessment and satisfaction items evaluated by nursing students had a total agreement of 96.3% and an intraclass correlation coefficient of 0.91. Both the content and the appearance of the application were considered adequate, and the usability scores indicate that the application is useful and easy to use.

Construction and validation of an Educational Content Validation Instrument in Health

Luciana Vieira de Carvalho, Sarah Leite, Aline Áfio … (2018)

ABSTRACT Objective: to construct and validate the Educational Content Validation Instrument in Health. Method: methodological study that includes the establishment of the conceptual structure; definition of objectives and population; construction of items and response scale; selection and arrangement of items; instrument structuring; opinion of experts; pre-test and content validation. Results: an instrument with 15 items was constructed and, after expert evaluation, eighteen items were obtained, divided into three domains: objectives (four), structure/presentation (nine), and relevance (two). Six items were modified since they presented a percentage of agreement below 0.8. Items of the total instrument presented good internal consistency (0.877) regarding domains. Conclusion: an Educational Content Validation Instrument in Health was elaborated and validated, presenting good reliability, and may contribute to the practice of researchers and health professionals in the development of educational content.
