title: [The teaching of the perioperatory nursing assistance in undergraduate courses in nursing].
abstract: In the present study, the authors describe the reality of the perioperatory nursing assistance, analyzing and outlining its trends among professors of undergraduate courses in nursing that teach this subject. Perioperatory nursing assistance, as a process carried out by nursing professionals, in a specific phase of attention to the patient prior to the anesthetic-surgical procedure, involves strategies and orientations that are expressed in the nurse's praxis. In this study, the teaching of perioperatory nursing assistance, as a dynamic activity of the actions of the professors of Nursing in the Surgical Center, developed in a collective process, emerges as a ritual praxis of the system's realm, of the instrumental technical reason, moving away from the consensual understanding, from the communicative reason and from the encouragement to the alternatives directed towards the social/emancipatory praxis.
