This work aimed at providing elements that will lead to reflections on the scenario concerning perioperative nursing. Accordingly, based on literature, authors have made considerations regarding evidence-based nursing practice, general concepts, its importance and the obstacles to its implementation in professional practice, aiming at encouraging surgical nurses to seek for scientific knowledge by developing research and applying its results.

[Acute and transient psychotic disorders (ICD-10: F23). Empirical data and implications for therapy].

The defining clinical features of acute and transient psychotic disorders (ICD-10: F23) are an acute onset and a duration of psychotic symptoms not exceeding 1-3 months. Previous empirical investigations show that patients with this diagnosis have a favourable prognosis, but also a high risk of relapses (58-77%). The diagnostic stability in the further course of illness seems to be low (34-73%) with a frequent diagnostic change to schizophrenia and affective disorders being observed. As yet, data from controlled clinical trials regarding therapy do not exist. The implications for the treatment of acute and transient psychotic disorders are discussed with this background.
