Objective: To describe the development and validation process of a booklet with perioperative guidelines for surgical patients.
Method: This is a methodological, quantitative study, divided into three stages: narrative review, booklet preparation and validation with 23 judges, nurses specialized in patient safety/perioperative nursing, who answered the online Educational Content Validation Instrument. The booklet was considered valid when each item obtained a Content Validity Index equal to or greater than 0.8.
Results: The elaborated material was divided into four items: surgical patient safety; preoperative guidelines; the surgical center; guidelines after surgery. The overall Content Validity Index in the validation with judges was 1.0, considered gold standard.
Conclusion: The booklet was validated by experts regarding objectives, structure/presentation and relevance.

Background: Despite cataract surgery being a safe procedure with a low incidence of perioperative complications rates, poor knowledge, concerns about the effectiveness of treatment and cost-benefit analysis of the procedure significantly hinder cataract surgery uptake rates in Africa. This study describes the effect of a decision aid on knowledge and decision conflict on cataract patients in Africa.
Methods And Analysis: 120 patients with cataracts reporting to a tertiary hospital in Ghana were randomly assigned to receive a decision aid containing information on the possible outcomes of cataract surgery or a control booklet containing general knowledge about cataracts without information about cataract surgery.
