Abstract

Objective: To build and validate a Guide of the SUS Network in Pinheiro-MA. Methodology: This is a descriptive methodological research, qualitative and documentary in nature, which was developed in the following stages: (1) mapping of care units in the municipality, (2) situational diagnosis of health care services, (3) construction of the SUS Network Guide in Pinheiro-MA and (4) local validation of this instrument. After the construction of the Guide from the information provided by the coordinators of the 44 service units available, we went to the validation stage, which, in turn, had the participations of 04 managers, 05 network professionals, 05 health students and 05 users. All those involved had to meet inclusion criteria so that they could be considered judges in this process. The items evaluated were: “Language”, “Accessibility”, “Organization” and “Relevance”. For validation purposes, the percentage of minimum agreement established among the expert judges had to ensure a Content Validity Coefficient (cvc) greater than 80%. Results: A CVC of 93,42% was reached, that is, above the minimum tolerated value. Conclusion: The constructed Guide met all aspects been considered satisfactory for its validation.
