Purpose:
To validate the content of the nursing intervention "0565 - ultrasonography: bladder."
Method:
The content validation study was conducted from September to November 2022, with a sample of 22 specialists who evaluated the components of the nursing intervention "0565 - ultrasonography: bladder," according to the Nursing Interventions Classification, considering the pertinence, relevance, and clarity of the title, definition, and 17 activities of the intervention as well as education level and estimated time to perform. Data collection used an online form followed by a focus group. For analysis, the content validity index with a minimum agreement proportion of 85% was used. Items that did not achieve agreement through the online form were discussed in the focus group.
Results:
Of the 21 items evaluated, 13 were validated in the first stage of the study. The remaining eight were evaluated in the focus group, modified, and consensually approved.
Conclusion:
The nursing intervention "0565 - ultrasonography: bladder" had its content completely validated.
Implications For Nursing Practice:
