Objective: To understand the experiences of nurses about their practices in preventing surgical site infection (SSI). Method: This is an exploratory qualitative study of nurses from the general surgery service of a public hospital in Northeastern Brazil. Between December 2018 and January 2019, a semi-structured interview was conducted for data collection. It was recorded in digital audio and lasted about 20 minutes. We analyzed the transcribed accounts using the Discourse of the Collective Subject technique. Results: Nine nurses participated in the study, mostly female, with a mean age of 40.9 years. The following thematic categories were listed: measures to prevent SSIs; adequate nursing care to prevent SSIs; qualified nursing staff; adequate working and material conditions; and ongoing training. Conclusion: We identified concern for minimizing risks of SSI in patients through the adoption of preventive actions, such as hand washing, use of personal protective equipment, daily dressing change using the aseptic technique, in addition to the use of adequate supplies, balanced technical-scientific knowledge, and effective team-buildingReferences
