Lista de verificación de cirugía segura: propuesta de validación de contenido para trasplante de hígado

ABSTRACT

Objectives:

to develop the safe surgery checklist for liver transplantation according to the original model of the World Health Organization and perform content validation.

Methods:

a methodological research developed in four stages: integrative review; expert participation; consensus among researchers; and content validation using the Delphi technique in two rounds, by five judges. For data analysis, the Content Validation Index was used.

Results:

the first version of the checklist consisted of four surgical moments with 64 items of verification, with an average Content Validation Index of 0.80. After adjustments, in the second round the checklist maintained four surgical moments with 76 items and a Content Validation Index of 0.87.

Conclusions:

the checklist was validated and adequate for the safety of liver transplantation in the surgical environment, given that each item established must be mapped and managed for the success and effectiveness of the procedure.
