One of the most frequent complications in the PACU room is Hypoxia.Post-Anaesthesia Team Handover (PATH) using SBAR is expected to reduce the incidence of hypoxia in the PACU, reduce handover interruptions, improve communication and information between health workers. The study aimed to determine the effects of Post Anesthesia Team Handover (PATH) on Hypoxia in Post-Anaesthesia Care Unit (PACU). This study used a pre-posttest quasi-experimental design with a control group. Purposive sampling was applied to recruit 68 respondent to participate in the study.
