Phases of Perioperative Period
1. Preoperative - begins when the decision for
surgical intervention is made and ends with the
transference of the patient to the operating room
table
ROLE OF THE NURSE:
- Establishing a baseline assessment of the patient in
clinical setting or at home
Carrying out a preoperative interview ( physical, emotional assessment, previous anesthetic
history, allergies, genetic problems that may
affect surgical outcomes)
- preadmission testing providing preparatory education about recovery from anesthesia and postoperative care
I - PREOPERATIVE PERIOD
ROLE OF THE NURSE ON THE DAY OF SURGERY:
- review patient teaching
- Verify patient’s identity and the surgical site
- confirm informed consent is confirmed
- start an intravenous infusion
- verify availability of safe transport and the presence of
an accompanying responsible adult ( If the patient is
going home the same day)
- perform or update the preoperative patient assessment
and address questions of the patient or family
I - PREOPERATIVE PERIOD
Nursing process overview

- Nutritional status
- Respiratory status ( difficulty of breathing, bronchial Asthma, Blood gas
analysis)
- Cardiovascular Status
- Hepatic and Renal Function
- Endocrine Function (life threatening hazard: hypoglycemia, glucosuria)
- Immunologic function (Allergy, Blood transfusion Reactions, Immunosuppressive
medications
- Effects of aging ( hydration status, modified lifestyle)
- Prior drug therapy (history of drug use ( adrenal steroids, diuretics,
phenothiazines, antidepressants, insulin, antibiotics ( “Mycin “ drugs)
