Abstract
ABSTRACT Objective: to identify the state-of-the-art developed about surgical Nursing care in the operating room. Method: an integrative review with search and selection of primary studies conducted in April and May 2022 in four major data sources in the health field, namely: LILACS, SciELO, BDENF and PubMed, from 2018 to 2022. The sample consisted of 13 studies, 8 selected from a universe of 293 articles and 5 obtained through the manual search. Results: three categories were generated: Associating surgical care with care, people and material resources management for patient safety; Surgical care and ethical sensitivity in the search for patients' well-being; and Operating room nurses' manifestation and omission experiences and surgical care. Conclusions: surgical Nursing care in the operating room is varied and is manifested through meeting the administrative demands, ethical sensitivity, body temperature maintenance, preservation of individuality and meeting all the needs in the intraoperative period when patients are more vulnerable, including being duly informed as a way to provide safe surgical care. On the other hand, nurses acknowledge the need to change their world view and direct surgical care towards a more human, social and cultural perspective.
