The Project Team on a Perioperative Model was charged with finding or creating a theoretical model for perioperative nursing. Team members evaluated 15 existing theories and decided to use the conceptual model developed by AORN's Data Elements Coordinating Committee. The Perioperative Patient Focused Model is logical, and the concepts and principles are supported in practice environments. AORN J 71 (May 2000) 1030–1037.
