Tiivistelmä
The use of general anesthesia is considered safe, but it comes with certain risks. General anesthesia has countless minor and major complications. The recognition and treatment of the complications is important when providing good-quality care. Nurses working in the perioperative field carry a major responsibility of recognizing and acting upon various complications, which, if untreated, may lead to slow recovery, permanent damage or even death.
The aim was to study the post-operative complications of general anesthesia. The purpose of this study was to use the retrieved information to provide a compact, informative and easy-to-use learning material in the format of a video presentation for nursing students undertaking their perioperative studies.
The study was carried out using methodologies based on evidence-based development. A database literature search for current, evidence-based medical and nursing literature was performed in order to achieve a reliable and professional end result. The presentation was made using pedagogical principles, and it utilizes video and sound so as to make it an attractive learning tool.
