## Abstract

to develop and validate the content of a multidisciplinary booklet for patients who have undergone kidney transplantation.

this methodological study was conducted in five stages: 1) literature review; 2) identification and organization of domains; 3) content validation; 4) formatting of the booklet; and 5) evaluation by the target audience. Content validity was analyzed using the Content Validity Index (CVI) and modified Kappa. The Content Validity Ratio (CVR) was also calculated to assess relevance.

the booklet was validated after four rounds of evaluation by a panel of experts, achieving a global average of CVI = 0.98, modified Kappa = 0.97, and CVR = 0.77. The target audience evaluation reached a 99.7% agreement rate.

the developed booklet demonstrated evidence of content validity, being clear, engaging, and informative, making it suitable for use by both professionals and the target audience.

construir e validar o conteúdo de uma cartilha multiprofissional para pacientes submetidos a transplante renal.

estudo metodológico dividido em cinco etapas: 1) revisão bibliográfica; 2) organização dos domínios e inclusão de figuras; 3) validação do conteúdo; 4) formatação; e 5) avaliação do material pelo público-alvo. A validade de conteúdo foi analisada pelo Índice de Validade de Conteúdo (IVC) e Kappa modificado. Para análise da relevância, foi calculada a Razão de Validade de Conteúdo (RVC).

a cartilha foi construída e validada após quatro rodadas de avaliação, com média de IVC = 0,98, Kappa = 0,97 e RVC = 0,77. A avaliação do público-alvo alcançou 99,7% de concordância.

a cartilha demonstrou evidências de validade de conteúdo, sendo clara, interessante e contendo informações necessárias, podendo ser utilizada por profissionais e pelo público-alvo.
