Abstract
There is clear evidence in the nursing literature that preoperative visits conducted by theatre nurses have a therapeutic benefit for surgical patients. However, it would appear that the actual uptake of this practice is limited (Wicker 1995). The aim of this study is to investigate the prevalence of preoperative visiting in Wales and to identify factors associated with its occurrence or non-occurrence.
