Abstract
For public health, situational diagnosis constitutes a fundamental pillar of research since it facilitates the identification of needs and priorities; the monitoring of indicators related to the clinical pictures will allow the systematization of specific information on this risk group.Objective: To validate the instruments for the analysis of the situational diagnosis of people with disabilities, to determine the incidence of clinical pictures and analyze the correlation with their clinical pictures.Methodology: A cross-sectional, exploratory, descriptive, evaluative, correlational field research is carried out. A pilot test was used to establish the validity, relevance and coherence to determine the degree of reliability of the designed instruments that were validated by expert judgment.Eighteen people with disabilities were surveyed, randomly selected, and one participant was selected for their willingness to collaborate. Results: For the first instrument a reliability score of 91.0 is obtained, in Combrach alpha a reliability coefficient of 0.91.The reliability of the second instrument gave an average of 98 and for factor: Intra-family relationship, a percentage of 94.98 was obtained. Social acceptance 96.98 and Individual perception 94.98.Conclusion: the instrument has been approved for its reliability and validity, making it suitable to be applied to the sample that represents this research
