| Summary: | Background and Objectives: Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy is a minimally invasive surgery for or conducting gallbladder removal, providing faster recovery times and fewer complications compared to conventional open surgery. This study aims to evaluate and compare the standard of post-operative nursing care provided to patients who undergo Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy procedures in surgical units at teaching hospitals and understand statistical tools' performance in evaluating care quality.
Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study design, involving fifty nurses via non-probability (purposive) sampling technique, who had been working in the surgical unit. The data were collected through the use of the observational checklist, which consisted of two parts; the first part includes information about the socio-demographic characteristics of respondents, and the second part is about the assessment of Postoperative nurses' care items consisting of five main domains. The data were collected from October -2023 to February -2024 after approval of the proposal by the Ethical Committee, using statistical tools to analyze the data.
Result: The finding of the study showed that most study items responding to the questionnaire showed significant differences and that there is insufficient provision of high-quality postoperative nurse interventions for patients undergoing Laparoscopic cholecystectomy at surgical wards at Erbil City teaching hospitals.
Conclusion: This study concludes that several demographic factors, such as age, marital status, and level of education, among nursing staff significantly correlate with the quality of nursing care provided in surgical wards. Despite their educational background, many nurses lacked adequate professional skills and training in postoperative nursing interventions for care.
