- Abstract
Aims: to confirm and refine the multidisciplinary care protocol structure for people with venous ulcers treated in primary care. Method: a methodological, quantitative study, carried out in three steps: development of the instrument from the literature review; and validation of the content, through the Delphi technique in two stages: one with 51 judges and one with 35. The analysis used the Kappa index ≥0,81 and Content Validity Index (CVI)> 0.80, and the Wilcoxon test for comparison between the two validation steps. Results: it was found that, from the 15 categories of the protocol, 12 had better scores in phase Delphi 2. For the assessment requirements of the protocol, it was found that the points awarded by the judges in the second phase were higher in nine of the 10 items, confirming the validity of the instrument. Conclusion: the elaborate and validated version by a professional consists of an approach script for patients with venous ulcer in primary care.
