This is a concept of perioperative care that includes a set of procedures aimed at faster and safer recovery after surgical procedures.
The positive impact of this new method of care has been proven to increase the quality of the treatment and nursing process, reduce postoperative complications, and shorten the length of hospitalization.
Before surgery, an outpatient educational meeting with a nurse is conducted.
Ideally, 2 to 6 weeks before the procedure.
Sufficient patient information is provided so they know what to expect and how everything will proceed.
Patients can better prepare themselves physically and mentally for the surgery.
They can arrange suitable home conditions for the postoperative period in advance.
