The objective was to validate an educational hypermedia about peripheral venipuncture. This is a methodological study, conducted from January to October 2012, among nursing specialists and students. Binomial and paired t-tests were used for the analysis, where values of p<0.05 were considered statistically significant. The hypermedia content was considered effective by the specialists, because the values of the proportion among the specialists were greater than 85%. The hypermedia was classified as "very good" and "good" by 92.3% and 7.7% of students, respectively. It was deemed to be a resource that facilitates and complements the teaching-learning process. The hypermedia will assist the practice of nursing in the area of peripheral venipuncture, providing opportunities for future nurses to be qualified and able to promote health among the patients in their care.
