description Objective: To describe the process of validating an instrument for assessing skin lesions in a maternal and child hospital. Methods: A methodological study of evidence of content validity was carried out between May and July 2022 in a mother and child service.

Conclusion: The methodological validation process applied showed a high level of agreement, representing a cohesive instrument in the theoretical a...
