ABSTRACT

Objective:

Construct and validate by agreement an educational booklet on the use of immunosuppressive drugs after kidney transplantation.

Method:

Methodological study carried out in an outpatient follow-up clinic for post-transplant patients, from December 2019 to August 2020. It was developed in two phases: construction of the booklet and validation by agreement of the material by expert judges. A minimum level of agreement of 80% was necessary for the validation of the material.

Results:

Of the 30 items evaluated in the booklet, in the first phase, 15 were modified. After the modifications in the material performed in the second phase, only one item had an agreement value lower than 80%.

Conclusion:

The booklet was validated in content and appearance. Thus, the material could be used to assist health professionals in the health education process and support the care provided to kidney transplant patients.
