Core Tip
Core Tip: Gallstone surgery is the gold-standard treatment for gallstones; however, it may lead to complications and negatively impact patients’ health and quality of life. Perioperative care for patients undergoing gallstone surgery is essential to minimize postoperative complications as much as possible and enhance patient comfort and quality of life. In this study, comprehensive perioperative nursing was implemented for patients undergoing gallstone surgery and compared with routine care. Our results indicated that comprehensive perioperative nursing significantly promotes postoperative recovery, effectively alleviates pain, reduces overall complication rates, and improves patient comfort and quality of life, making it worthy of clinical promotion.
