Preoperative care involves preparing a patient for surgery to ensure safety and optimize outcomes. This includes conducting assessments, obtaining medical history, explaining the procedure, ensuring informed consent, providing physical and psychological support, and implementing necessary pre-surgery instructions such as fasting or medication adjustments. Postoperative care focuses on monitoring and supporting the patient’s recovery after surgery, including managing pain, preventing complications like infection or blood clots, monitoring vital signs and wound healing, assisting with mobility, and providing education for home care and rehabilitation.
