Objective:
describe the process of translation and cross-cultural adaptation of the Mayo High Performance Team Scale into Brazilian Portuguese.
Method:
descriptive study of validation and cross-cultural adaptation of the scale, carried out virtually, following assumptions proposed by Beaton and collaborators. It had a sample of 40 experts, and carried out two rounds, one for validation and one for final assessment.
Results:
after following all translation steps, the scale was presented to the committee of experts who reached a consensus (IVC between 0.9 and 1.0) that there was no discrepancy, after evaluating the semantic, idiomatic, experiential and conceptual equivalences between the original scale and the translated version.
Conclusion:
The Brazilian Portuguese version of the MHPTS was adequately translated and validated, revealing excellent potential for use in clinical simulation contexts for multidisciplinary scenarios.

01:31Translation
Translation is the process of synthesizing proteins from the genetic information carried by messenger RNA (mRNA). Following transcription, it constitutes the final step in the expression of genes. This process is carried out by ribosomes, complexes of protein and specialized RNA molecules. Ribosomes, transfer RNA (tRNA), and other proteins produce a chain of amino acids—the polypeptide—as the end product of translation.
