| Sumario: | Objective: To validate the content of the Risk Factors Mapping Instrument for Female Urinary Incontinence (IMFRIU-Fem) considering the context of young adult women. Method: This is quantitative methodological research, developed from April 2020 to December 2021, in three stages: integrative literature review, instrument construction and content validation. Results: Through the integrative review, 55 risk factors were identified and grouped into dimensions in the structure of the instrument, considering from sociodemographic aspects to body systems. The instrument was validated by the content validity index (CVI) and was assessed by 7 judges. For most of the dimensions of the instrument the judges presented a unanimous answer, expressing a percentage of 91 % as to clarity and understanding, which means that such dimensions present functionality in the face of the objective of mapping the risk factors for female urinary incontinence. The global CVI of the dimensions showed to be extremely significant, with CVI = 0.91. Conclusion: It is expected that the IMFRIU-Fem may help nurses to identify early risk factors for urinary incontinence, providing longitudinal data that allow the elaboration of a care plan that considers the integrality of women’s health. |
