A study of pre operation nursing visit about the nurses’ view from the surgery room of a university hospital

Abstract

This study to do an analysis of the PONV`s importance, by nurses from the Daily’s Surgery Room of an University Hospital, through forms distributed to them and to apply the written communication instrument on the PONV,proposed by NORONHA & ARAÚJO (1995). The results this research were: 92,9% of the nurses from the Daily’s Surgery Room think that it is important the performance of the PONV to the patient and Nursing aid, and 85,7% think the PONV is important for the nurse who works in a Surgery Room. The written communication instrument on the PONV was applied with success, being really easy to fill it in with clear questions , showing so to be a lot of viable but some items of the instrument like blood group and FATOR RH couldn’t be filled even after the records check. In this way, I think it is worth the suggestion o9f sitting the written communication instrument proposed by ARAÚJO AND NORONHA (1995) at this State University, proposing however, inclusion on the patients’ records data about blood group and FATOR RH.
