Abstract:

This work aimed to validate a toy and a story as an educational technology directed to orienting children that will be submitted to cardiac catheterization. Content validation was done by 23 expert judges (storytellers, child educators, nurses, medics, psychologist, psychopedagogue and occupational therapists) by using a form considering the following domains: goals, structure and presentation, and relevance. Quantitative data was analyzed through the Content Validation Index (CVI) and a cutoff of 0,80 was adopted. Qualitative data was submitted to thematic content analysis. The toy is composed of: dolls representing the child, the healthcare team, and the person
responsible for the child, prototypes of the angiography equipment and the anesthesia equipment, and objects used in hospital for anesthetic induction and venous puncture. The story approaches the physical structure of the Hemodynamics room and all steps comprising pre, trans and post-cardiac catheterization in a playful way. The technology was validated by the judges with a total CVI od 0,95. The validated toy and story constitute a dialog between health, education and art that might contribute to integral and humanized care to the child.
