The priorities for perioperative nursing research identified by the experts who participated in this Delphi study give direction to future research that can enhance a research-based nursing practice. Patient outcomes, future roles, clinical issues, staffing, and health care delivery topics frame the intricate picture of perioperative nursing research priorities. The results of this Delphi study are consistent with priorities identified in the 1988 "AORN policy, plan, and priority statement on nursing research." Perioperative nurse experts desire a professional practice that is based on scientific knowledge. Future research should generate scientific knowledge for recommended practices and activities that lead to desired patient outcomes by forging a proactive future for perioperative nursing.
