It is also designed to be of use to Registered Nurses already working in or preparing to work in this area, and other Operating Room staff such as anaesthetic technicians. It is a standalone text that discusses the roles and responsibilities involved in perioperative nursing, some technical aspects such as wound care, the changing face of perioperative nursing with a greater emphasis on day surgery, anaesthesia, medico-legal aspects and professional development. It is not intended to address surgical procedures which is covered in-depth in existing resources, but rather it is designed to contextualize essential information in the hospital setting.
