Abstract

ABSTRACT Objective: to perform the content and face validation of a checklist and a banner on pressure injury prevention in patients in prone position. Method: this is a methodological study of content and face validation with 26 nurses with specialization. Professionals assessed the checklist and the banner in relation to clarity, theoretical relevance, practical relevance, relation of the figures to the text and font size. The Content Validity Index was calculated for each item, considering one with a value equal to or greater than 0.8 as valid. Results: all the actions described in the checklist and in the banner had a Content Validity Index greater than 0.80, with standardization of verbal time and esthetic adjustments in the banner’s layout, as suggested. Conclusions: the checklist and the banner were validated and can be used in clinical practice to facilitate pressure injury preventions in patients in prone position.
