Bathing newborns in a bucket: production and validity of an educational video

This is applied and methodological research, of technological production, developed in three phases: pre-production, production and post-production from December 2020 to February 2022. In pre-production, the script and storyboard were elaborated and staff recruitment and resources. In production, content validity and script and storyboarding appearance and recording of scenes and in post-production, scene editing and video composition. The validity process of the script, storyboard and edited video was carried out with PhD nurses, social communication professionals and the nursing team. The items objective, content, relevance, environment, verbal language, inclusion of topics, functionality, usability, efficiency, audiovisual technique, environment and procedure were assessed by a Likert scale and the agreement among judges analyzed from the Content Validity Index and Cronbach’s alpha above 0.80.

Results

The educational video on how and why to bathe in a bucket was entitled “Good practices: bathing newborns in a bucket” and organized into three scenes: before bathing, during bathing, after bathing; lasting seven minutes and 48 seconds.

Conclusion

The video was developed and validated by nursing and social communication experts and may contribute to the actions developed in the field of neonatology as an adequate health education tool carried out by nurses for families who wish to adopt this type of bath.
