Description

Cláudia Santiago and co-authors present a 2025 study validating a website that teaches nurses how to keep a brain-dead organ donor's body stable until surgery. Donor maintenance is exacting work, and the EMPDO site packages the best evidence as a training tool. Validation came in two passes: nurses judged the scientific content, and web designers judged the teaching design.

Nurses rated the content almost perfect, with a validity index of zero point nine seven, and designers awarded nearly full marks for language, illustrations, and cultural fit. Critiques from both panels fixed inconsistencies before release. The authors describe the finished site as an innovative, first-of-its-kind support for a niche where mistakes cost organs.
