Validação de gerontotecnologia educativa para pessoas idosas no domicílio

Abstract

Objective: to validate three-dimensional educational gerontotechnology in the form of a model for elderly people at home. Method: methodological, descriptive study, comprising the creation of gerontotechnology, carried out in 2022, Brasília-Brazil. Prepared in three phases: 1) creation of a floorplan, 2) construction and 3) validation. 12 expert judges participated. The appearance and content were validated by completing a structured questionnaire and a Content Validity Index ≥ 65%. Results:the experts' assessment revealed a CVI of 0.840. Agreement ranged from 73% (kitchen) to 98% (technology). For reliability analysis, Cronbach's alpha was used, which presented reliability indices of 0.916 (95% I.C. 0.828 –0.971), which indicates very high reliability and consistency. After validation, gerontotechnology was modified to its 2nd version according to the suggestions made by the expert judges. Conclusion: Gerontechnology in the form of a validated three-dimensional model represents an enhancing resource in the nurse's consultation by providing precise guidelines aligned with a traditional home adapted for elderly people.
