Abstract
Objective: To develop and validate the content of an interactive virtual simulation based on a branching scenario for the prevention of unplanned extubation in adult Intensive Care Units.
Method: Technological production developed through the stages of Contextualized Instructional Design and methodological study of content validation. Content validation (objectives, structure and presentation, relevance, general aspects) was carried out by five judges, with the Content Validity Index, Content Validity Ratio, and Content Validity Coefficient being calculated.
Results: The virtual simulation contains five branched scenes, structured and implemented on a free virtual platform. The judges' average score was 4.3 and the agreement >0.8 in all metrics for validation.
Conclusion: The virtual simulation was developed and validated in terms of content, and is recommended as an educational strategy for nurses. Digital educational technology can support nurses to promote patient safety by preventing the occurrence of unplanned extubation in the intensive care unit.
