Nursing assistance in the surgical center: Humanized and scientific care

Abstract

Objective: To report the nursing care in the surgical center from the perspective of humanized care. Method: This
is a systematic literature review study, where elements of the PICO strategy were used, through guiding questions. Articles were
selected in the online databases LILACS, MEDLINE and SciELO, held in March 2022 and of these, 10 articles were chosen for our
research. Results: The literature points to the importance of welcoming in the surgical center in a humanized way, as a way of
welcoming users in a holistic way, thus providing a relationship of trust. It was also observed some actions that make the practice
of humanization fail by professionals: work overload, bureaucratic requirements, high user turnover. Conclusion: It is concluded
that the practice of humanization in the surgical center offered by the multidisciplinary team offers the patient more security,
reception and a holistic view, favoring trust and proximity to these professionals.
