by Francisca Brunna de Carvalho Costa Vasconcelos

Introduction: Primary Blood Stream Infections (IPCS) stand out as the main causes of morbidity and mortality in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). In this perspective, it is observed that strategies made possible by Educational Technology (ET) have contributed to the adherence of professionals to good health practices and prevention of adverse events. Objective: To build and validate an Educational Technology (ET) in video format for health professionals about the prevention of primary neonatal bloodstream infection. Methods: Methodological study regarding the construction and validation of an educational technology in video format on the theme Prevention of Primary Neonatal Blood Stream Infection, from August 2021 to July 2022. The research was conceived with the assistance team of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of a tertiary hospital, in the interior of Ceará. The video was built from scientific evidence about good practices in the prevention of IPCS in neonatology. Validation was performed by 18 expert judges and 28 professionals working in the NICU (target audience); items with concordance rates greater than or equal to 70% were considered validated. The final version of the video was adapted as recommended by the evaluators and edited with the help of the designer. Ethical precepts related to resolutions were metNo.466/2012; No.510/2016 e No.580/2018. Results: The content and appearance of the video images were validated by the judges with an average agreement rate of suitability of 98.14% and 98.78% among the target audience. Most of the judges (77.8%) considered the ET totally suitable for promoting learning in different hospital contexts in the area of neonatology. In addition, 100% of the judges stated that the material addresses the issues necessary for training the target audience. It was highlighted that 17.9% of the target audience stated that they had never had access to educational material on the prevention of IPCS in neonatology and emphasized that video will help in professional performance and can also be used by any professional working in the neonatology area. Conclusion: The video was validated in all evaluated domains and can be used as a permanent education tool by the team of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
