title: Content validation of standards of nursing care for the child with asthma.
abstract: Standards of nursing care for the child with asthma were developed utilizing outcome criteria to evaluate the patient's status. These standards were submitted to three experts in the field of pulmonary nursing to enable calculation of a content validity index (CVI). The experts also provided qualitative comments to improve clarity of the standards. The CVI for the standards was 0.85. The standards were revised to reflect the CVI and the qualitative comments by the three experts.
