Perioperativ omvårdnad är de vårdhandlingar och vårdaktiviteter som utförs av en anestesi- och operationssjuksköterska under de pre-, intra- och postoperativa fa-serna i samband med en patients operation. Syftet med litteraturstudien var att belysa patienters upplevelser av perioperativ omvårdnad med inriktning mot peri-operativ dialogmodell. Forskningsprocessen inspirerades av Goodmans sju steg och metoden som användes var en litteraturstudie som grundade sig på tio veten-skapliga artiklar. Som teoretisk referensram har Orlandos omvårdnadsteori an-vänts. Resultatet visade att när den perioperativa omvårdnaden var organiserad enligt perioperativ dialogmodell upplevde patienterna bland annat att sjuksköters-kan hade tid för dem, operationen var något de skulle genomföra tillsammans och sjuksköterskan upplevdes se patienten som en resurs. Vidare framkom i resultatet att hälsa i perioperativ omvårdnad innebar en gemenskap i en sammanhängande helhet genom dialog. / Perioperative nursing is the nursing acts and nursing activities which are made by an anaesthetic- and operation nurse during the pre-, intra- and post operative phases in connection with a patient’s operation. The purpose with the study was to show the patients’ experiences of perioperative nursing aiming the periopera-tive dialoguemodel. The research process was inspired by Goodman’s seven steps and the method used was a literature study which was based on ten scientific arti-cles. As a theoretical setting Orlando’s nursing theory has been used. The result showed that when the perioperative nursing was organized as a perioperative dia-loguemodel the patients experienced that among others the nurse had ample time for them’ that the operation was something which they would undertake together and the nurse viewed the patient as a resource. The result also indicated that health in the perioperative dialogue meant a community in a continuous whole true dialogue.
