  • Purpose
    The purpose of this study was to develop a performance appraisal tool (PAT) for postoperative anesthesia care unit (PACU) nurses.
  • Methods
    This study was a descriptive, non-experimental methodological study. The PAT was developed through a literature review and tests for validity and reliability.
  • Results
    Subsequent to a review of the literature on nursing performance of PACU nurse, a 63 item questionnaire was developed. Through factor analysis, 61 items in 3 domains with 8 factors were derived. Cronbach's α coefficient of the final instrument was .99.
  • Conclusion
    This tool is an efficient PAT for PACU providing meaningful feedback for professional growth in PACU nurses.
