The economic reality of skyrocketing health care costs has dramatically stimulated the shift from inpatient to outpatient surgery in the last decade. Although the stress of inpatient surgery and hospitalization is well documented in the literature, little has been written about the stressors of families whose children undergo day surgery. This descriptive study explored the perceptions of parents' stressors as their children underwent day surgery. The following categories of parental stressors were identified: intrapersonal, interpersonal, or extrapersonal. Recommendations to minimize the stressors of families are given. Results of the study may guide planning and implementation of nursing practice changes in pediatric ambulatory surgery.
在过去十年中，医疗保健成本飞涨这一经济现实极大地推动了从住院手术向门诊手术的转变。尽管住院手术和住院治疗的压力在文献中有充分记载，但关于孩子接受日间手术的家庭所面临的压力源却鲜有著述。这项描述性研究探讨了父母在孩子接受日间手术时对压力源的认知。确定了以下几类父母压力源：个人内部、人际间或个人外部。给出了将家庭压力源降至最低的建议。该研究结果可能会为儿科门诊手术护理实践变革的规划和实施提供指导。
