Nurses play an important role in the preassessment of surgical patients. With the rise in free-standing surgical clinics and the move of many surgical procedures to office-based surgical clinics, quality patient care could be compromised. Preassessment of surgical patients in office-based and hospital clinics ensures quality patient care from the moment patients enter the office to when they are discharged from care. The process of preoperative evaluation is essential in assessing the medical condition of patients, evaluating their overall health status, determining risk factors, and educating them. Surgical preassessment benefits patients, physicians, and nurses by not only improving surgical outcomes and patient satisfaction but also ensuring patient safety. Nurses employed in office-based surgical suites require specialized knowledge and clinical skills to offer continued, well-informed care to their patients.
护士在外科手术患者的术前评估中发挥着重要作用。随着独立外科诊所的增加以及许多外科手术转移到门诊外科诊所，患者护理质量可能会受到影响。在门诊和医院诊所对手术患者进行术前评估可确保从患者进入诊所到出院期间的优质护理。术前评估过程对于评估患者的病情、评估其整体健康状况、确定风险因素以及对他们进行教育至关重要。手术前评估不仅可以改善手术效果和患者满意度，还能确保患者安全，从而使患者、医生和护士都受益。在门诊外科手术室工作的护士需要具备专业知识和临床技能，以便为患者提供持续的、信息充分的护理。
