Area of Science:
Nursing Healthcare Administration Patient Assessment Background:
Preoperative assessment is crucial for surgical patients. Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU) nurses require effective tools for patient evaluation. Sister Callista Roy's adaptation model provides a framework for understanding patient responses. Purpose of the Study:
To develop a preoperative assessment tool for PACU nurses. To organize preoperative assessment based on Roy's adaptation model. To determine a surgical patient's position on the health-illness continuum. Main Methods:
Utilized Sister Callista Roy's adaptation model as the organizing framework. Developed a preoperative assessment tool for PACU nurses.

Assessed patients' biopsychosocial needs through four adaptive modes: self-concept, physiological function, role function, and interdependence.
Identified adaptive or maladaptive behaviors based on assessment data.
Conducted a Level II assessment for maladaptive behaviors, collecting data on focal, contextual, and residual stimuli. Main Results:
The developed tool categorizes patient behaviors as adaptive or maladaptive. Maladaptive behaviors trigger a Level II assessment to gather further data on stimuli. The assessment data informs nursing diagnoses, expected outcomes, interventions, and evaluations for patient care plans. Conclusions:
The preoperative assessment tool, based on Roy's adaptation model, aids PACU nurses in identifying patient needs. The tool facilitates a systematic approach to preoperative patient evaluation. This systematic assessment supports the development of individualized patient care plans for improved surgical outcomes.
