INTRODUCTION
In this context, it is crucial to prioritize the prevention of cardiovascular diseases and implement strategies that reduce vulnerability factors through health promotion initiatives aimed at improving quality of life, thereby influencing the health–illness process. However, for health education to be truly effective and dynamic, it is essential to employ active methodologies during interventions that engage participants and enhance their learning experience. Consequently, the use of Educational Technologies (ET) that encourage active participation in health promotion activities stands out(5).
Reflecting this understanding, educational technologies are carefully designed and developed tools grounded in scientific knowledge, intended to function as educational resources that enhance the teaching-learning process. They include a variety of digital and non-digital tools that are employed creatively and proactively throughout the teaching/learning process(6).
This research project is justified by the limited scientific literature on HV in individuals with heart disease, as well as the scarcity of educational tools aimed at mitigating these vulnerabilities in patients with cardiovascular conditions. This study holds significance because its primary outcome is an engaging educational resource that effectively imparts essential information to promote cardiovascular health and consequently reduces health vulnerabilities. Therefore, the findings of this research will benefit vulnerable populations in need of guidance, while also providing healthcare professionals with an additional tool for care and contributing to the broader scientific community(7).
Given the above, this study aims to describe the development and validation of both the content and design of an educational booklet aimed at mitigating health vulnerabilities in patients with heart disease.
METHODS
This methodological study was conducted in Sobral, Ceará, Brazil, following the stages of construction and validation of educational technologies. First, a bibliographic review was conducted to support the development of the subject matter. Subsequently, the educational technology in question was developed. Finally, expert judges validated the content and design of the material. Data collection was conducted remotely via email and social media from August 2021 to April 2022(8).
Initially, an integrative literature review was conducted in August 2021. Searches were performed across the following databases: PUBMED Central - PMC and SCOPUS, and the Virtual Libraries SciELO and Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS) [Virtual Health Library]. The descriptors used were “doenças cardiovasculares OR “cardiovascular diseases” and “vulnerabilidade em saúde OR health vulnerability”, combined using the Boolean operator “AND.” The inclusion criteria for selecting relevant articles consisted of primary studies addressing health vulnerabilities in individuals with cardiovascular diseases, published in English, Portuguese, or Spanish. A total of 46 potentially relevant articles were identified. Of these, 36 were selected for full-text review, with nine articles included in the final sample(7,9).
The results from this search were used to construct the theoretical framework to be covered in the booklet. Furthermore, to better understand the experiences of patients with cardiovascular diseases, key findings from interviews conducted with hospitalized patients suffering from heart failure and acute myocardial infarction were incorporated. These interviews were part of the study entitled “Health Vulnerabilities in People with Cardiovascular Diseases”(7).
Initially, to develop the educational booklet, the main topic was introduced to provide readers with a clear understanding of its purpose. To create an engaging and dynamic reading experience, a self-assessment questionnaire was developed based on the subdimensions of HV. The choice of this theoretical framework was based on the study “Health Vulnerabilities in People with Cardiovascular Diseases,” which used the same approach in patient interviews to effectively identify the key factors contributing to health vulnerabilities. Once the content of the booklet was defined, the design and layout were completed by a professional graphic designer(10).
Next, the booklet’s content and design were validated by 11 professionals with experience in clinical practice, teaching, and/or research in the fields of health vulnerabilities and/or cardiovascular diseases. To select the experts, a scoring system adapted from the nursing diagnosis content validation model was applied, requiring a minimum of seven points for eligibility. Experts were recruited using convenience sampling, followed by the snowball technique, with referrals from professionals specializing in health vulnerabilities and cardiovascular diseases(11).
Each expert was invited via email and, upon agreeing to participate, received the following materials: a Free and Informed Consent Form, the initial version of the booklet, a sociodemographic questionnaire, an instrument for validating the health education content, and another instrument for validating the design of the educational technologies used in healthcare. Experts were given a thirty-day period to evaluate the material, complete the instruments, and return them to the researcher. They were also free to include suggestions or comments about the material, if desired(12-13).
The judges assessed the material for both content and presentation of illustrations and text, using the following criteria: clarity of the description and understanding of the illustrations, alignment with the proposed topic, applicability to professional practice, and the overall relevance of both images and text within the material. They also evaluated the characteristics of the images, including shapes and colors used, effectiveness in conveying the information, connection to the daily lives of vulnerable populations, as well as quantity, size, and visual harmony of the images with the accompanying text. Each topic of the evaluation instrument contained statements related to these items. After reading each statement, the judges rated the items using the following response scale: 1= inadequate, 2= partially adequate, 3= adequate, and 4= fully adequate. The responses were initially recorded in a Microsoft Excel database and later analyzed using absolute and relative frequencies, as well as descriptive statistics (mean, median, and standard deviation). To verify the content validity of the booklet, the Content Validity Index (CVI) was used. The Item-level Content Validity Index (I-CVI) was calculated for each item on the instrument, as well as the overall CVI. A CVI of 0.78 or higher was considered acceptable for content validation. The statistical analysis of agreement for each item on the instrument was carried out by evaluating the proportion of experts who agreed on the relevance of the educational booklet(12-14).
The project was approved by the Research Ethics Committee (Portuguese Acronym: CEP) of the Universidade Estadual Vale do Acaraú, under report No. 4.321.649. The ethical guidelines established in Resolution No. 466/2012 of the National Health Council were strictly followed.
RESULTS
The bibliographic review identified various health vulnerability factors related to cardiovascular diseases, including risk factors such as smoking, alcohol consumption, poor diet, physical inactivity, obesity, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, high triglyceride levels, exposure to high temperatures and air pollution, low educational levels, lack of access to information, a history of hospital admissions, susceptibility to depression, psychiatric symptoms, and poor sleep quality(7).
Based on this and the subdimensions of HV—Human Person, Co-presence, and Care—the educational booklet titled “Take Good Care of Your Heart: A Guide to Health Vulnerabilities in People with Cardiovascular Diseases” was developed. The booklet features a red and white color scheme, extends across twenty pages, and uses “Open Sans” as the main font. The material was divided into four sections, as follows: 1. Introduction: The topic was contextualized with epidemiological data and information on health promotion strategies. 2. Health Vulnerabilities and Cardiovascular Diseases: The concept of health vulnerability (HV), its impacts, and dimensions were explained. 3. Cardiovascular Vulnerabilities: An explanation was provided for each dimension and its corresponding subdimensions. Questions were then posed about the patient, based on the presented subdimension, to identify HV situations. Alongside each question, strategies were outlined to help alleviate these vulnerabilities and improve the patient’s quality of life. 4. Booklet’s Ending: In the final section, the character "Coraçãozinho"[Little Heart] reinforces the key messages of the booklet, presenting strategies to mitigate the identified health vulnerabilities. Additionally, the importance of seeking professional healthcare support was emphasized(10).
Regarding the dimensionalities of health vulnerabilities (HV), questionnaires were used based on the defined categories, consisting of objective questions designed to help readers identify HV situations. These were paired with strategies aimed at alleviating and even preventing the identified vulnerabilities. Once the content was finalized, a graphic designer was enlisted to manage the layout and illustrations of the booklet. The CANVA design platform was used to define illustrations. A character named “Coraçãozinho” [Little Heart] was used to engage the reader and make the reading experience more enjoyable and relaxed(10).
Based on the above, the first version of the booklet was developed with the aim of mitigating health vulnerabilities in individuals with CVD (Figure 1).

The booklet was submitted for evaluation by 11 expert judges. Regarding the characterization of the judges: nine were female, with an average age of 40.33 (± 9.49) years. Ten of the judges were nurses, with an average of 17 (± 17.18) years of training. All held a master’s degree, and five had completed their doctoral studies. The items evaluated for content, along with their respective Content Validity Index (CVI) values, are shown in Table 1.

At the end, the overall Content Validity Index (CVI) for the validation of the booklet’s content and appearance was calculated, resulting in a value of 0.91. This value exceeded the threshold set for the booklet’s validation in this study, indicating high reliability and agreement among the responses. Participants’ suggestions included replacing technical terms that might be difficult for the general audience to understand, as well as eliminating acronyms that could cause confusion during reading. They also recommended a change in the font used in the character’s speech bubbles. Some images were also replaced to encourage behavioral changes among the target audience. There was no need to conduct a new round of validation because the suggestions were promptly implemented, and the booklet achieved a high overall CVI in the first round. Thus, the suggestions were accepted, and the final version of the booklet was established accordingly.

DISCUSSION
Vulnerability situations leading to cardiovascular illness involve physiological, social, economic, and even environmental factors, requiring a multidimensional approach to identify solutions that address and/or mitigate the risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (CVD). However, patients often show little interest in health education activities. This remains one of the greatest challenges for healthcare professionals, as low adherence to these initiatives adversely affects not only the population’s quality of life but also the effectiveness of healthcare (7,14).
Moreover, the development of educational materials aims not only to inform readers about a specific topic but also to facilitate decision-making that promotes lifestyle changes, ultimately enhancing quality of life and mitigating risks and conditions that may lead to illness. The use of soft-hard technologies such as booklets, brochures, storybooks, manuals, and infographics—due to their engaging and instructive nature—makes health promotion more effective by capturing the participants’ interest. Additionally, individuals can take these materials with them, use them at home, and share them with family and friends, thereby spreading knowledge and encouraging others to follow the recommended care and guidelines(15-17).
Thus, it is important to note that educational materials are designed to inform and educate the population on topics that are often unfamiliar or unknown to them. Therefore, some terms and concepts may be unfamiliar or even distant from the target audience’s reality, and this lack of information is one of the factors contributing to their vulnerability in such situations. This aligns with a validation study conducted in Nigeria, where, considering the country’s economic situation, limited access to tertiary healthcare services, lack of technology, and low health literacy rates, educational materials on maternal depression were developed. Considering all these factors, the decision was made to develop educational materials—posters, brochures, and songs—that could be freely distributed to the population in a simple, easy-to-understand format(18).
Corroborating these findings, other methodological studies on the development of educational booklets also validated their materials with high statistical indices: an educational booklet on childhood asthma control and management achieved an overall Content Validity Index (CVI) of 0.93, while a booklet on self-care for pressure injury prevention was validated with an overall CVI of 0.93. A booklet focused on care for children with gastrostomy achieved an overall CVI of 0.9319-20. On the other hand, in another methodological study validating an educational booklet supporting breastfeeding, the overall CVI was 0.81—slightly lower but still considered adequate for use according to the applied criteria(21).
It is worth highlighting that although the booklet was well evaluated by the judges, they provided valuable suggestions to enhance the quality of the educational material to be used by the target audience. These contributions prompted revisions, including the replacement of specific terms and the addition of further illustrations to enhance the overall quality of the material. The judges’ feedback played a crucial role in enhancing the material’s suitability for the target audience, as their input helped identify areas for improvement(20).
In line with the above, a study validating an educational booklet designed to promote bonding between mothers and newborns in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit received positive evaluations from experts. However, suggestions for improvement were made, which the researchers accepted and implemented. These adjustments led to an increase in the booklet’s CVI when assessed by the target audience. This underscores the importance of incorporating expert feedback—even when the initial CVI is considered satisfactory—as it can significantly enhance the overall quality of educational materials(21).
Based on studies assessing the content and design of educational booklets, it has been observed that when appearance validation is conducted by technical judges with expertise in graphic design, their feedback tends to focus more on the quality of the illustrations and the overall layout of the booklet. This often leads to more detailed evaluations and lower Content Validity Index (CVI) scores. In contrast, when appearance validation is conducted by healthcare professionals, feedback typically focuses on the comprehensibility and appropriateness of the images for the target audience, as well as their alignment with the content, often resulting in satisfactory CVI scores(22).
Using educational materials in nurse-patient interactions is a highly effective strategy for promoting health across all stages of care. It is important to highlight the close relationship between nursing professionals and patients, as nurses are the ones who support patients throughout every stage of their journey, whether in hospital settings or in primary care. In this context, the use of educational technologies improves patients’ understanding and assists nurses in delivering health education, making the experience more interactive and engaging(23).
Furthermore, educational materials developed by healthcare professionals should be broadly disseminated to support public health promotion, encourage self-care, and enhance individuals’ overall quality of life. Thus, both printed and digital educational materials have been used by health professionals as health education tools. Therefore, having this material validated by experienced professionals ensured that the key topics were accurately identified and that the most effective approach was adopted to fully meet the needs of the target audience(25).
A notable limitation of this study relates to the sample of expert judges. Although the sample size met the recommended number for validating educational technologies, some judges were unable to respond within the specified timeframe. Additionally, it was not possible to include technical judges specializing in graphic design to validate the appearance of the educational technology.
CONCLUSION
The educational booklet titled “Take Good Care of Your Heart: A Guide on Health Vulnerabilities in People with Cardiovascular Diseases” was developed as a self-explanatory resource aimed at enabling patients to recognize daily situations of health vulnerability through the questions provided in the material. Thus, to promote health and help reduce these situations of HV identified by the patients, practical strategies were provided for everyday use. A character was also created to guide patients through the material, making the learning process more engaging and enjoyable. Additionally, images and brief texts were incorporated. Next, the educational material underwent content and appearance validation by healthcare professionals, achieving excellent CVI scores and strong agreement among the expert judges. The feedback improved the educational booklet, which was recognized as a valid and innovative resource aimed at identifying and helping reduce HV situations to which patients with cardiovascular disease are prone. The evaluated version of the booklet achieved an overall CVI of 0.91, making it suitable for use with the target audience.
This material will support nursing care for cardiac patients by helping them identify and prevent HV situations in their daily lives, ultimately improving treatment and rehabilitation outcomes while reducing hospital readmissions and health setbacks. Therefore, it is recommended that further studies be conducted to implement the educational material as a supportive tool for nurses caring for hospitalized patients with CVD. Moreover, these studies should assess whether the educational technology effectively enhances learning and promotes the intended behavior changes.
