Abstract

Objective: the aim of this study was to develop and analyze the evidence of validity of a prototype application to assist in health education and self-care for patients using oral anticoagulants. Method: this is a methodological study based on Contextualized Instructional Design. The contents were validated between February and April 2021 by eight specialists in the areas of health and technology (including two doctors, a biomedical doctor, three nurses, a nutritionist and a systems analyst). Data was collected in a virtual environment using the Health Education Content Validity Instrument and the Content Validity Index calculation. The experts were encouraged to identify weaknesses and propose suggestions for improvement. Results: the prototype included the creation of 83 screens, covering topics such as diet (with an emphasis on the relationship between food composition and vitamin K intake), drug interaction, alerts and other functionalities. The mean experience of the experts who evaluated the screens was 19.75 years. The prototype's total content validity index reached 0.929, while the instrument's index for evidence of validity was 0.972; Cronbach's alpha showed a result of 0.943. Conclusion: the prototype showed evidence of validity as assessed by the experts, including functionalities that could improve care for patients taking oral anticoagulants.
