Formal operating room rotation was removed from nursing curricula, impacting student preparation and specialty selection. Reintegrating perioperative nursing offers unique learning opportunities for essential nursing concepts and skills.

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Education
  • Surgical Nursing
  • Curriculum Development

Background:

  • Baccalaureate nursing curricula shifted from medical to conceptual models in the 1960s.
  • This led to the removal of formal operating room rotations, sparking debate on student preparedness.
  • Operating room nurses argued this diminished essential learning experiences and specialty interest.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To reevaluate and revitalize perioperative nursing education within baccalaureate nursing curricula.
  • To propose a model for integrating perioperative nursing experiences.
  • To highlight the value of perioperative nursing for fundamental nursing skill development.

Main Methods:

  • The article reviews the historical context of nursing curriculum changes.

  • It discusses the evolution and scope of perioperative nursing.
  • A "whole-brain approach" is proposed as a model for curriculum integration.

    • Main Results:

    • Perioperative nursing offers a unique environment to teach core nursing concepts like adaptation, safety, and teamwork.
    • Students gain valuable skills relevant to various nursing practice areas.
    • Reintegration can enhance student learning and potentially increase interest in the specialty.

    Conclusions:

    • Perioperative nursing provides a rich learning ground for fundamental nursing concepts and skills.
    • A "whole-brain approach" can revitalize perioperative nursing's role in baccalaureate education.
    • Reintroducing structured perioperative experiences is crucial for student development and specialty recruitment.
