Method: this is a descriptive, methodological study based on Paulo Freire’s assumptions. The development of the script and video storyboard were based on scientific evidence, on the researchers’ experience, and that of nurse experts, as well as on a virtual learning environment. Results: the items related to the script were approved by 97.2% of the nurses and the video was approved by 96.1%. Conclusion: the educational instrument was considered to be appropriate and we believe it will contribute to professional training in the nursing field, the updating of human resources, focusing on the educational process, including distance education. We believe it will consequently improve the quality of care provided to patients with central venous catheters.

Catheter-related infection, especially catheter- Given the previous discussion, we opted to related bloodstream infection (CRBI), is a concern given developed a learning objective to lead users to its severity and lethal nature. It presents a complex reflect and act on, and consequently, transform the and multi-factor etiology. Studies show that the main context of healthcare. Hence, this study’s aim was to determinants include: the patient’s clinical condition, develop and validate an educational digital video that type and composition of the catheter, insertion technique, approaches the dressing of short-term, non-cuffed, site, type of dressing, frequency with which the system non-tunneled central venous catheters in hospitalized is manipulated, and duration of catheter placement(1-3). adult patients. It is worth noting that there is considerable interest among researchers, professionals and health facilities Method in reducing the incidence of catheter-related infections to improve the quality and safety of care provided The objective of this descriptive methodological to patients. Such efforts should be multidisciplinary study was to develop a reliable, precise, and useable and focus on patient behavior and adherence to instrument to be employed in other studies(12). recommendations during the insertion and handling of Its methodological process was based on Paulo catheters, epidemiological surveillance of infections, and Freire’s theory. A script was validated before the video assessment of results(2,4). was developed, as previously done by other researchers. Even though there is no consensus regarding An instrument, a storyboard with detailed description of the best approach to reduce this type of infection, the content to be included, was also developed in which researchers suggest that training programs and the the scenes and audio were established. The instruments qualification of health providers effectively contribute to to validate the script and video were previously reducing infection rates(1-4). submitted to apparent and content validation(6,9,13-14).

The use of Freire’s theory is justified due to the Experts selected according to pre-established principles of dialogue, as a living exercise of dialogue: criteria validated the script(16).
