description ABSTRACT Objective: To develop digital technology for patient and family integration into the Intensive Care Unit care team, aiming to subsidize decision-making for the prevention of infections related to healthcare. Method: Methodological research of technological production in three phases: pre-production, production, and post-production in a teaching hospital in southern Brazil. Sixteen intensive care unit nurses participated. Results: The research produced six videos: general guidelines on the Intensive Care Unit, Preventing infections: hand hygiene; Pneumonia associated with mechanical ventilation; Catheter-associated primary bloodstream infection; Catheter-related urinary tract infection. Final considerations: The proposed technology was developed and aims to assist nurses in bringing patients and families closer to the routines of the intensive care environment to provide safety in the contact of the patient of intensive care units with family members and in the active participation for the prevention of infections related to healthcare.
