description Since their emergence, the use of information and communication technologies has achieved greater competitive advantages in companies and public organizations, including the health sector, although there is little scientific evidence about it. The objective of the research was to validate a questionnaire to measure the competitive performance of health institutions in the state of Baja California, through the use of information and communication technologies. The study approach is quantitative, with a retrospective descriptive scope and a non-experimental cross-sectional design. The questionnaire developed based on the literature review was administered between September 2020 and May 2021 to a sample of health professionals (n = 203). It consisted of 59 items, as a result of measuring 9 dimensions, where its content validity index for n = 13 experts was classified as adequate (0.79). The reliability obtained in the pilot test was high (Cronbach’s Alpha = 0.86). To evaluate the construct validity, an exploratory factor analysis was carried out, which determined 9 factors that explain 84.5 % of the total variance and a strong correlation between the variables. The obtained instrument presented adequate psychometric properties of reliability and validity, which in turn made it possible to measure the impact of information and communication technologies on the competitive performance of health institutions.

Desde su surgimiento, la utilización de las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación ha logrado mayores ventajas competitivas en las empresas y organismos públicos, incluyendo el sector salud, aunque sobre este hay poca evidencia científica. El objetivo de la investigación fue validar un cuestionario para la medición del desempeño competitivo de las instituciones de salud del estado de Baja California, mediante el uso de las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación. El enfoque del estudio es cuantitativo, con alcance descriptivo de tipo retrospectivo y diseño no experimental de corte transversal. El cuestionario elaborado con base en la revisión de literatura se aplicó entre septiembre de 2020 y mayo de 2021 a una muestra de profesionales de la salud (n = 203). Constó de 59 ítems, como resultado de la medición de 9 dimensiones, en donde su índice de validez de contenido para n = 13 expertos fue catalogado como adecuado (0.79). La fiabilidad obtenida en la prueba piloto fue alta (alfa de Cronbach = 0.86). Para evaluar la validez de constructo se llevó a cabo un análisis factorial exploratorio, que determinó 9 factores que explican el 84.5 % de la varianza total y una fuerte correlación entre las variables. El instrumento obtenido presentó adecuadas propiedades psicométricas de confiabilidad y validez, que a su vez permitieron medir el impacto que tienen las tecnologías de la información y comunicación sobre el desempeño competitivo de las instituciones de salud.
