You will be taken into an area where you will be asked to remove all of your clothing and jewelry and you will be given a hospital gown. This is sometimes called the Pre-Operative Holding Area.
Post-operative care begins once the procedure has ended, with the patient being reviewed in the anaesthetic recovery room, then have their vital signs monitored once they are deemed safe enough to be transferred from the recovery room to the ward.
The final phase, known as the postoperative phase, is the period immediately following surgery. As with the preoperative phase, the period can be brief, lasting a few hours, or require months of rehabilitation and recuperation.
The combination of narcotics, immobility, and dietary changes following surgery can lead to significant morbidity. We become more concerned when there is significant pain, nausea or vomiting, fever, or cessation of gas passage. These would all be indications to seek immediate medical help.
