    AbstractIn order to counsel the surgical patient, the nurse needs to have a clear picture of home recovery based on the patient's biophysiologic health problems. The purpose of this study was to examine short-stay surgery patients' experiences of pain, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and problems with elimination and wound healing during a 1-week recovery phase at home.
