ABSTRACT: Introduction: The pre-anesthetic consultation (PAC) is considered a fundamental step in the perioperative phase, and it is a moment of communicationbetween the anesthesiologist and the patient, where the patient can be informed and clarified, characterizing this a communicative and therapeutic process. However, its benefits are still generally unknown. Educational videos are surfacing as fast-access media that can reach a wide audience. Some studies havehighlighted the benefits of using educational videos about PAC. In this context the current study provides an experience report about the process of creation and validation of an educational video about PAC. Methods: In order to choose an educational product, the technical aspect, as well as the cognitive, multisensory stimuli and personality structure of individuals must beobserved. This educational video was made based on the CTM3 method consisting of the following stages: Educational product Conception (C); Theoretical framework (T); and Methodological framework (M3), this last one is basedon 3 theories: Transactional Analysis, Multisensory Exploration, and Neurolinguistics. Results and Discussion: The creation and validation of this educational video comprised seven stages. The video length was approximately 2 minutes 24 seconds, and it was projected in 10 scenes. Finally, the video was submitted to a validation process by an ad hoc committee. The advantages of educational resources, particularly videos for health education, are well defined being an increasingly used resource especially in interventions. The use of the CTM3 Method was fundamental because its methodology involves particularly the cognitive and sensory aspects and the specificities of each person. Conclusion: The use of CPA educational videos, due to their great capacity to attract attention of viewers, can help to inform the patient. Based on previous studies about the use of videos, as well as cognitive and sensory aspects, it is also concluded that this educational video is relevant and has the potential to promote CPA information to its target audience.
