Abstract Cerebral Vascular Accident (CVA) is characterized as a neurological deficit attributed to an acute injury of the central nervous system due to a vascular cause. It is one of the main causes of death, affecting mainly the elderly population and, given the disabilities imposed by stroke, the need for care arises, which is often carried out by the family caregiver. This study aimed to build an educational technology aimed at family caregivers of elderly post-stroke patients, dependent on basic care for activities of daily living, that is, a technology in video format, constituting the product of this research. This is a methodological study, carried out in an inpatient unit for neurological patients in a large university hospital located in the southern region of the country. The sample was made up of 14 judges specializing in neurology and/or gerontology from the national territory and 15 family caregivers of the elderly. Data collection took place from December to February 2024. The study consisted of three stages 1) Preproduction construction of the synopsis, argument, script and storyboard of the educational video, for this stage an integrative review was carried out, aiming at theoretical foundation for the development of the script for educational technology with subsequent validation of the video content by expert judges, through the Health Educational Content Validation Instrument (IVCES). To analyze the instrument, the Content Validity Index (CVI) was used and the value was considered acceptable when the result of the proportion of agreement between the expert judges was equal to or greater than 0.78; 2) Production construction of the educational video and evaluation of the video by family caregivers of elderly people hospitalized in Neurology, using the Suitability Assessment of Materials (SAM) instrument, with content evaluation, literacy requirements, illustrations, layout and presentation and cultural suitability; 3) Postproduction editing and final version of the educational video for subsequent dissemination. As a result of the research, the literature identified what guidance caregivers and/or family members of elderly people who suffered a stroke should receive regarding post-stroke care in preparation for hospital discharge. The video script was produced, which was validated by the agreement of the expert judges (IVC= 0.93). The video was composed of 51 scenes in Full HD resolution, lasting 8 minutes. There was 99% agreement among family caregivers of participating elderly people, making it appropriate and validated. After completing this stage, the application was completed to issue the Brazilian product certificate for the educational video at the National Cinema Agency, published on the YouTube digital platform. The video proved to be a tool that helped in the acquisition of fundamental knowledge on the topic, as it is a way of disseminating information in an attractive, simple, dynamic and democratic way. The developed product has the potential to be replicated in other units of the institution that serve the same patient profile, as the technology provides guidance and clarification to family caregivers of elderly people on the topic.
