Keywords: Nursing diagnosis, Perioperative nursing, Qualitative research, Nursing process, Post-operative care

Abstract

Objective: to qualitatively validate the nursing diagnosis Delayed surgical recovery based on patients' perceptions. Method: a qualitative study was conducted with 20 patients from a reference hospital six days or more after surgery. A semi-structured interview was conducted as the data collection technique, and the thematic content analysis method was used for data analysis. Results: three categories were obtained: Description of the defining characteristics and related factors based on the patients' statements, Perception of surgical recovery, and Repercussions of delayed surgical recovery on the patients' lives, health, and well-being. Final considerations: the patients' perceptions were closely linked to the postoperative period and length of stay, which corroborates the definition of Delayed surgical recovery. Qualitative investigations help to understand the patient's experience regarding the diagnosis phenomenon and situate person-centered care. It can also help design assertive nursing interventions to achieve full recovery.
