Surgical patients during the intraoperative period may be affected by various adverse events due to intraoperative positioning, the most frequent being pressure injuries. The following critical review aims to describe the evidence of the use of support surfaces to avoid complications due to surgical positioning in patients undergoing surgery. It is carried out due to the demand of surgical patients in the constant use of support surfaces during surgical procedures, with respect to these we formulated the following clinical question: What is the evidence of the use of support surfaces to avoid complications due to surgical positioning in patients undergoing surgery? Guided by the EBE methodology, different search strategies were carried out in the following databases; Pubmed, Epistemonikos, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. Eleven articles were selected and screened by means of Gálvez Toro's Validity and Apparent Usefulness Guide, 04 articles were set aside, and the PRISMA list was applied to the latter to determine their methodological quality. As an answer to the clinical question, if there is enough evidence on the use of support surfaces to avoid complications due to surgical positioning in patients submitted to surgery, this critical review presents to the surgical center nurses the benefits of the use of adequate support surfaces to avoid complications due to intraoperative surgical positioning and therefore provide a good quality of care. According to the SIGN classification, due to the scarce information in the study on biases, the review had a level of evidence 1+ and, according to the GRADE grading system, an A for recommendation.
