Abstract
The objective of this review update is to evaluate the most recent available research on the effectiveness of nurse-led preoperative assessment clinics or services on patient and organizational outcomes.
More specifically, the objectives are to identify: the effectiveness of nurse-led preoperative assessment services on reducing adverse surgical events, improving patient satisfaction, decreasing anxiety, cancellation of surgery, incidence of non-attendance for scheduled surgery, recognition and fulfillment of postoperative care needs; reducing inpatient days and reducing the number of overnight stays for day or ambulatory surgery patients having elective surgery in comparison to day of surgery assessment or other “usual care” admission assessments.
