Abstract
Abstract Objective To build and validate checklist content for neonatal perioperative nursing care in cardiac surgery. Methods This is methodological research, developed from October 2020 to September 2021, in two sequential stages: checklist item construction based on an integrative literature review and content validity by seven experts in neonatology, selected from a search in resumes. For analysis, the Content Validity Index was used, considering values ≥ 0.8. Results A checklist was created with 57 structured items for pre-, intra- and postoperative interventions in cardiac surgery, with care actions designated according to the legal competence of nursing professional (technician and nurse) categories. In the validity process, 24 items were modified and four were excluded. The minimum level of agreement among experts for the items was 0.86, except for one item (0.75). Conclusion The checklist achieved content validity with a satisfactory standard for use in the perioperative period of cardiac surgery.
