Objective. To design and validate, in its appearance, a questionnaire to collect information on risk factors in children with cerebral palsy.
Methodology. Descriptive, methodological study, which included a design phase and a phase of facial validation of a questionnaire. The latter was carried out through the participation of 43 mothers and 10 health professionals.
Results. According to Rutter's theoretical model around risk factors, a questionnaire was designed to collect information on pre- and perinatal conditions, which can be used as part of the documentation of the clinical history of children with cerebral palsy and for research processes. The facial validation of the instrument was carried out, whose results suggested the acceptance of 17 items and the reformulation of 12, equivalent to 41.4% of the totality of questions of the FR-PC Questionnaire.
Limitations. Sample size could have been bigger. In addition, not enough literature was found to allow us to compare our results with other studies.
Value. The product of this research is the RF-PC Questionnaire, a tool that facilitates the organization and integration of data from the clinical history of children with CP, for decision making.
Conclusions. The FR-PC Questionnaire is a clear and understandable tool to collect information on risk factors in children with cerebral palsy.
