Uma das manifestações mais comuns em sala de recuperação anestésica é a náusea, geralmente associada à anestesia. Além do aspecto subjetivo do desconforto, os pacientes que não apresentam melhora desse sintoma podem ter alta retardada, tanto da sala de recuperação anestésica quanto hospitalar. Como conseqüências, temos a demora do retorno às funções normais, a elevação dos custos hospitalares e um menor grau de satisfação do paciente. O objetivo do presente estudo foi realizar uma análise crítica das evidências disponíveis na literatura sobre os fatores relacionados e características definidoras do diagnóstico de enfermagem náusea, no período pós-operatório imediato, por meio de uma revisão integrativa. No desenvolvimento deste estudo, utilizaram-se como fonte de levantamento de dados quatro base de dados: Lilacs, Pubmed, Cinahl e Cochrane - Revisões Sistemáticas, e a amostra constituiu-se de 31 estudos. A análise das publicações selecionadas demonstrou que as náuseas e vômitos no período pós-operatório são considerados eventos relacionados e, na maioria das vezes, avaliados como um evento único. Os fatores relacionados identificados, de acordo com a freqüência de aparecimento e nível de evidência, foram: sexo feminino, não fumante, história prévia de náuseas e vômitos no pós-operatório, história de náusea associada ao movimento, idade, tipo de cirurgia, uso de opióides no trans e pós-operatório, uso de anestésicos voláteis e administração de óxido nitroso. Em relação às características definidoras evidenciamos nos estudos analisados: palidez, taquicardia, aumento na salivação, transpiração, sensação de calor e frio, rubor, consciência do impulso do vômito, tonturas, bradicardia, dilatação pupilar, variações na pressão arterial, respiração profunda, rápida e irregular. A importância de aperfeiçoar e legitimar os elementos que fazem parte da Taxonomia II da NANDA (2006) está em possibilitar aos profissionais enfermeiros que atuam em centro cirúrgico e recuperação pós-anestésica o planejamento da assistência de enfermagem ao paciente nos três períodos da experiência cirúrgica, visando à minimização das complicações no pósoperatório e promover uma reabilitação mais rápida e tranqüila. / Nausea is one of the most common adverse events in the pots-anesthesia recovery room. It is usually associated to anesthesia. Besides the subjective aspect it can be very distressing for patients. The patients who are suffering from nausea and do show any improvement at all may have a late discharge from both the post-anesthesia recovery room and the hospital. The delayed return to normal functions, the high hospital costs, and the lower degree of the patient\'s satisfaction are some of the consequences. The aim of the present study was to perform a critical analysis of the available evidences in the literature about the related factors and the defining characteristics of nursing diagnosis nausea over the immediate postoperative period by means of an integrative review. During the development of this study systematic reviews and four databases for data collection were used: Lilacs, Pubmed, Cinahl, and Cochrane. From the screened reports, 31 of those were potentially relevant for the purpose of this study. The analysis of the retrieved studies showed that vomiting and nausea in the postoperative period are considered to be closely related and most of the time no distinction can be made between nausea and vomiting. The identified factors related according to the rate of appearance and evidence level were the following: female gender, non-smoking, prior history of vomiting and nausea in the postoperative period, history of nausea associated to motion, age, type of surgery, opioid use in a trans- and a postoperative period, use of volatile anesthetics, and nitrous oxide administration. In relation to the defining characteristics we highlighted the following: pallor, tachycardia, an increased secretion of saliva (sialorrhea, salivation), and perspiration, sensation of cold and heat, blush, awareness of the vomiting impulse, dizziness, bradycardia, pupillary dilation, arterial blood pressure changes, deep, fast, and irregular breathing. The importance to improve and to validate the NANDA\'s Taxonomy II (2006) elements is to enable the registered nurses, who work at surgery centers and anesthesia recovery rooms, to plan the nursing care for the patient in the 3-period of surgical experience aiming at to minimizing the complications in the postoperative period and to stimulate a fast and an undisturbed rehabilitation.

Bakgrund: Primär total höftplastik utförs vanligtvis på patienter med höftledsartros när konservativ behandlings smärtlindrande effekter inte är tillräckliga. Efter ingreppet kan postoperativa rörelserestriktioner tillämpas för att minska luxationsrisken. Rörelserestriktionerna har emellertid ifrågasatts då studier visat att något samband mellan tillämpande av restriktioner och minskad risk för luxation inte föreligger. Syfte: Kartlägga tillämpande av postoperativa rörelserestriktioner vid svenska sjukhus som genomför primär total höftplastik med direktlateralt snitt samt undersöka skillnader mellan universitets-/regionsjukhus, länssjukhus, länsdelssjukhus och privatsjukhus avseende tillämpandet av restriktioner. Studien syftade även till att kartlägga icke-standardiserade restriktioner. Metod: Tvärsnittsstudie med en deskriptiv och komparativ studiedesign. Totalt svarade 42 sjukhus på en egenkonstruerad webbenkät som utgjorde underlaget för datainsamlingen. Resultat: Vilka postoperativa restriktioner som tillämpades för flexion över 90°, utåtrotation över 45°, inåtrotation över 45°, adduktion över neutralläge samt flexion över 90° kombinerat med samtidig rotation och adduktion varierade på de deltagande sjukhusen. Det förelåg inga signifikanta skillnader mellan sjukhusgrupperna gällande nämnda rörelser. Flera sjukhus tillämpade icke-standardiserade restriktioner baserade på patients individuella förutsättningar samt kunde variera beroende på protestyp. Även rekommendationer om att undvika extrema rörelser förekom. Konklusion: Det är en variation gällande vilka restriktioner som tillämpas efter primär total höftplastik. Med hänsyn till denna studies resultat samt aktuell evidens bör postoperativa restriktioner fortsatt diskuteras. / Background: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is commonly performed on patients with hip osteoarthritis when conservative treatment no longer reliefs pain sufficiently. Movement restrictions are applied to prevent hip dislocations, although those have recently been questioned since studies have shown that a liberal regimen does not increase the risk of hip dislocation. Purpose: To chart movement restrictions following THA performed with a direct lateral approach at Swedish hospitals and analyzes differences in those between university hospital, county hospitals, district hospitals and private hospitals. This study also aimed to chart non- standardized movement restrictions. Method: A cross-sectional study with a descriptive and comparative design. Data was collected from a self-made web survey, which was answered by 42 hospitals. Results: The appliance of restrictions regarding flexion beyond 90°, external rotation beyond 45°, internal rotation beyond 45°, adduction beyond centerline and flexion of 90° or beyond combined with adduction and rotation varied among the participating hospitals. There were no significant differences between participating hospital groups regarding mentioned movements. Non-standardized restrictions were influenced by the individual factors of the patient as well as the prosthesis type. Patients were also recommended to not perform any extreme movements. Conclusion: There is a variation regarding appliance of postoperative restrictions during the first six weeks postoperatively. In the light of the results of this study, together with recent evidence postoperative, restrictions should be further discussed.

Bakgrund: Postoperativ smärta och illamående så kallad postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) är bland de vanligaste postoperativa komplikationerna och är kopplat till fördröjd återhämtning med ökad komplikationsrisk. Individuella- och processrelaterade faktorer påverkar förekomst av postoperativ smärta och PONV. Tarmopererade patienter skattar jämförelsevis hög postoperativ smärta. Anestesisjuksköterskan har ett stort ansvar att tillgodose god smärtlindring och postoperativ omvårdnad. Syfte: Beskriva fördelning av postoperativ smärta, PONV, patientkaraktäristika i förhållande till kön hos tarmopererade patienter. Även att identifiera könsskillnader relaterat till postoperativ smärta och PONV samt samband mellan postoperativ smärta, PONV, patientkaraktäristika och processdata. Metod: En retrospektiv studie med kvantitativ ansats, patientdata från Svenskt Perioperativt Register (SPOR) användes. Patienter som genomgick operation på tunn- och tjocktarm (KVÅ-kod JF) på ett länssjukhus i Sverige åren 2019 och 2022 inkluderades, totalt 420 patienter. Data redovisades med deskriptiv och analytisk statistik. Resultat: Flera signifikanta samband påvisades; högre ålder korrelerade med lägre skattad postoperativ smärta och längre operationstid korrelerade med högre skattad postoperativ smärta. Patienter med generell anestesi utan tillägg av regional anestesi, elektiv operation och PONV skattade högre postoperativ smärta. Resultatet visade en signifikant könsskillnad, kvinnor drabbades i större utsträckning av PONV än män. Slutsats: Dessa samband och skillnader belyser att postoperativ smärta är komplext. Fler studier bör utföras i syfte att klargöra riskfaktorer för postoperativ smärta och PONV, och för att förstå underliggande mekanismer. Det är viktigt att vårdpersonal i ett tidigt skede förebygger, identifierar och behandlar postoperativ smärta och PONV utifrån patientens bakgrund och kända riskfaktorer. För att detta ska ske måste en individbaserad strategi utarbetas, för god behandling och återhämtning. / Background: Postoperative pain and postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) are among the most common postoperative complications and is associated with prolonged recovery. Individual and surgery-related predictors affect the prevalence of postoperative pain and PONV. Patients who underwent bowel surgery rated postoperative pain comparatively high. The anesthetic nurse has a responsibility in providing effective pain treatment and qualitative postoperative care. Purpose: To describe the distribution of postoperative pain, PONV, patient characteristics in relation to gender among patients undergoing bowel surgery. Also, to identify gender differences related to postoperative pain and PONV, but also correlations between postoperative pain, PONV, patient characteristics and surgery related factors. Methods: A retrospective register study with a quantitative approach, data from the Swedish Perioperative Registry (SPOR) were used. Patients included underwent bowel surgery in an operating ward at a county hospital in Sweden by 2019 or 2022, resulting in 420 patients. Data was performed with descriptive and analytic statistics. Findings: Findings demonstrated several significant correlations; higher age correlated with lower postoperative pain and longer duration of surgery correlated with higher postoperative pain. Patients with general anesthesia without complementary regional anesthesia, elective operation or PONV rated higher postoperative pain. Findings demonstrated a significant difference in gender, women tended to experience PONV more frequently than men. Conclusion: Findings illustrate the complexity of postoperative pain. More studies must be done to clarify risk factors for postoperative pain and PONV and understanding their underlying mechanisms. It’s essential that caregivers prevent, identify, and treat postoperative pain and PONV based on patient background and known risk factors. An individual-based strategy needs to be developed; to provide effective treatment and recovery.

Bakgrund: Konfusion innebär att patienten drabbas av ett akut förvirringstillstånd som bland annat påverkar kognitionen och medvetandenivån. Detta är en vanlig förekommande komplikation i den postoperativa vården. Tillståndet kan leda till ett ökat lidande och längre vårdtider som påverkar både individen, vården och samhället i stort. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva den vuxna patientens upplevelser av en konfusion i ett postoperativt skede och hur vårdandet upplevdes i samband med detta. Metod: En allmän litteraturöversikt med kvalitativ ansats, där elva kvalitativa studier söktes i databaserna PubMed och Cinahl. Kvalitetsgranskningen genomfördes med kvalitetsgranskningmall från Statens beredning för social utvärdering. Resultatanalysen utfördes genom Fribergs analysmodell. Resultat: Totalt framkom tre kategorier och dessa var upplevelser av konfusion, upplevelser av omhändertagandet i vården och upplevelser av närståendes involvering i vårdandet. Resultat visade både negativa och positiva upplevelser av konfusion postoperativt, där majoriteten av upplevelserna skildrades som negativa. De negativa upplevelserna beskrevs som ett lidande och overklighetskänslor. Resultatet visade även upplevelser om omhändertagandet i vården vilket innefattade information, kommunikation, närvaro av personal och miljöanpassning. Patienterna beskrev även närståendes involvering i vårdandet, vilket ansågs ha en positiv inverkan på patienten. Slutsats: Postoperativ konfusion kunde leda till stora psykiska påfrestningar för patienten, vilket medförde ett lidande. Lidandet kunde beskrivas i form av ett vårdlidande, sjukdomslidande och ett livslidande. I framtiden bör fler studier genomföras för att få en ökad förståelse och ökade kunskaper kring området. Fortsatt kan detta vara aktuellt för att kunna möta samt möjliggöra en optimal vård för denna patientgrupp. / Background: Confusion means that the patient is affected by an acute confusional state, which affects cognition and the level of consciousness. Confusion is a common complication in postoperative care. The condition can lead to increased suffering and longer hospitalization, which has affects both on the individual, the health care and the society. Aim: The aim was to describe the adult patient’s experiences of confusion in a postoperative stage and how the care was experienced in connection with the hospitalization. Method: A general literature study with a qualitative approach where eleven qualitative studies, found in the databases PubMed and Cinahl, was applied. The quality review was carried out using the quality review template from the Swedish Agency for Health Technology Assesment and Assesment of Social Services. The result analysis was carried out using Friberg’s analysis model. Results: A total of three categories emerged and these were experiences of confusion, experiences about caring performance in healthcare and experiences of relatives' involvement in the care. The results showed both negative and positive experiences of confusion postoperatively, with the majority of experiences described as negative. The negative experiences were explained as suffering and feelings of unreality. The result also showed experiences about caring performance in healthcare, which included information, communication, presence of staff, and environmental adaptation. The patients also described the involvement of relatives in the care, which was considered to have a positive impact on the patient. Conclusion: Postoperative confusion is described as a psychological stress for the patient, which entailed suffering. The suffering could be described in the form of care suffering, disease suffering and life suffering. In the future, more studies are required to gain an increased understanding and increased knowledge of the area. Furthermore, this can be relevant to meet the opportunities and make an optimal health care for this patient group.

BACKGROUND:Sequential compression devices (SCDs) are commonly used for thromboprophylaxis in postoperative patients but compliance is often poor. We investigated causes for noncompliance, examining both hospital and patient related factors.METHODS:100 patients undergoing inpatient urologic surgery were enrolled. All patient had SCD sleeves placed preoperatively. Postoperative observations determined SCD compliance and reasons for non-compliance. Patient demographics, length of stay, inpatient unit type, and surgery type were recorded. At discharge, a patient survey gauged knowledge and attitudes regarding SCDs and bother with SCDs. Statistical analysis was performed to correlate SCD compliance with patient demographics / patient knowledge and attitudes regarding SCDs / and patient self-reported bother with SCDs.RESULTS:Observed overall compliance was 78.6%. The most commonly observed reasons for non-compliance were SCD machines not being initially available on the ward (71% of non-compliant observations on post-operative day 1) and SCD use not being restarted promptly after return to bed (50% of non-compliant observations for entire hospital stay). Mean self-reported bother scores related to SCDs were low, ranging from 1-3 out of 10 for all 12 categories of bother assessed. Patient demographics, knowledge, attitudes and bother with SCD devices were not significantly associated with non-compliance.CONCLUSIONS:Patient self-reported bother with SCD devices was low. Hospital factors, including SCD machine availability and timely restarting of devices by nursing staff when a patient returns to bed, played a greater role in SCD non-compliance than patient factors. Identifying and addressing hospital related causes for poor SCD compliance may improve postoperative urologic patient safety.
