Answer to Question 2

A
A primary focus of intraoperative care is to prevent injury and complications related to anesthesia, surgery, positioning, and equipment use, including use of the electrical cautery grounding pad for prevention of burns. The perioperative nurse is an advocate for the patient during surgery and protects the patient's dignity and rights at all times. Evaluation of many goals and outcomes does not occur until after surgery. Signs and symptoms of infection do not have the time to present during the intraoperative phase. During the intraoperative phase, the patient is anesthetized and unconscious and typically has an endotracheal tube that prevents conversation and complaints. These complaints typically begin in the postoperative phase of the experience.
