Objective:
To validate an educational video about humanized childbirth, aimed at healthcare workers, in order to strengthen and encourage public health practices that ensure respect for the rights of mothers and promote the well-being of the mother-infant dyad.
Methodology:
Validation of educational technology in video format. A bibliographic search and a selection of contents were carried out. A script was created and a video was produced, which was validated by 6 specialists, selected according to their resume, and by 222 health professionals who work with pregnant women. Evaluators were contacted by social networks, using a “snowball " sampling. The content validity index was calculated, and was considered acceptable when greater than 0.60.
Results:
A 2 minutes and 20 seconds video presented the rights of pregnant women and mothers in order to motivate their compliance to treatments. For video validation, 6 specialists participated, 4 hold a master's degree and 2 hold a doctorate, who rated the content validity index with the highest score. The target population, mostly doctors and nurses, assigned the content validity index between 0.92 and 0.99, with a concordance of 97.87. Both groups made positive comments and approved the video.
Conclusion:
A short educational video was obtained, qualified with high validity rates by specialists and target audience, who considered it useful to strengthen humanized childbirth practices among healthcare workers and encourage respect for the rights of mothers.
