- Abstract
People with dentofacial deformity may need correction through orthognathic surgery for aesthetic, functional and anatomical improvement of the face. This study aims to identify the care of the nursing team in the post-operative period of patients submitted to orthognathic surgery. The methodology used was a descriptive, exploratory qualitative study, with content analysis of Bardin, performed in a public hospital, through a semi-structured interview with 23 members of the nursing team. In the results, the interviews were transcribed, analyzed and grouped into categories: care provided in the post-operative period of orthognathic surgery; difficulties in the post-operative care; guidelines offered in the immediate post-operative period and post-discharge care. It is concluded that the nursing care offered to patients after orthognathic surgery has been performed precariously, restricted and conditioned to medical orientations, but it is noted that the team is concerned about providing correct and quality care, since they understand that they help in a good recovery of the patient.
