Objectives:
to construct and validate a serious game to support the teaching of the Central Sterile Supply Department physical structure, flow, and functionality in an undergraduate nursing course.
Methods:
a methodological study, conducted between April and August 2023, with the participation of ten expert judges and 38 nursing students. Validity was based on the serious game structure as a theoretical-methodological framework, using the Content Validity Index.
Results:
the "Rota CME" game simulates the physical layout of the sector for student learning and obtained an overall Content Validity Index of 98.3%. The "game structure and presentation" domain showed lower reliability (α=0.526), and was adjusted according to participants' suggestions.
Conclusions:
the game demonstrated evidence of content and face validity, proving to be a viable pedagogical tool for nursing education, with the potential to enhance learning in the central sterilization unit area.
