Introduction: The elements of the NANDA-I nursing diagnosis "Caregiver role strain" may not be able to adequately express the phenomenon, as experienced by family caregivers of elderly, in our sociocultural context. Objective: To validate the NANDA-I nursing diagnosis "Caregiver role strain" in family caregivers of dependent elderly. Method: This is a methodological research subsidized by the validation model of the Hoskins' nursing diagnosis: concept analysis, expert validation and clinical validation. In order to perform the conceptual analysis, we adopted the model proposed by Walker and Avant and the methodological steps of integrative literature review. In the second stage, we had the participation of 30 expert nurses, who assessed the relevance of the elements achieved in the conceptual analysis of the diagnosis under study. In the stage of clinical validation, we had the participation of two diagnostician nurses and 40 family caregivers of dependent elderly cared for by the Home Care Service of Joao Pessoa-PB, in order to verify, in the clinical environment, the elements identified through conceptual analysis and expert validation. Data collection took place from February 2014 to September 2015, and the analysis was held in a quantitative approach. This study was appreciated by the Ethics Committee of the Health Sciences Center of the Federal University of Paraiba and approved under the Protocol record n° 029/14 and CAAE: 26449113.6.0000.5188. Results: In the stage of concept analysis, we identified new elements (definition, defining characteristics and related factors) of the nursing diagnosis under analysis and elements similar to those contained in the NANDA-I, which were defined in the theoretical and operational scope. These findings subsidized the elaboration of the data collection instrument of the stage of expert validation. After appreciation of experts, we identified 48 defining characteristics and 50 related factors relevant to the diagnosis, as well as a new definition. These elements were appreciated in the clinical environment, thereby resulting in the validation of 29 defining characteristics, eleven of which are not covered by the NANDA-I Taxonomy, 28 related factors, seven of which are not included in this Taxonomy, and the following definition for the nursing diagnosis "Caregiver role strain": dynamic state of change in the biopsychosocial welfare of the caregiver, multidetermined and cumulative, resulting from the process of caring for a relative or other significant people. Lastly, when considering the total scores of the analyzed diagnostic of 0,72, concerning the stage of by expert validation, and 0,69 in the stage of clinical validation. Conclusion: We can conclude that the validation of the diagnosis "Caregiver role strain", in our context, was estimated as appropriate. This is a pioneering study with regard to the validation of the diagnosis "Caregiver role strain" in the Brazilian context, thereby subsidizing important contributions to research, teaching and nursing practice.
