ResumoBackground: Postoperative complications can be understood as an ineffective response of the Roy adaptation model to the coping process generated by elective cardiac surgery.Objectives: To identify the complications in the immediate postoperative period of adults and elderly patients submitted to elective cardiac surgery with extracorporeal circulation; To categorize immediate postoperative complications as ineffective responses of the physiological mode of the human adaptive system.Methodology: Retrospective, cross-sectional, exploratory, and descriptive observational study.The immediate postoperative records of 230 patients who underwent surgery with extracorporeal circulation performed between January and December 2013, 2014, and 2015 were analyzed.Results: In the immediate postoperative period, 423 complications were identified, mostly related to fluid, electrolyte, and acid-base balance and endocrinal function.Conclusion: The reading of postoperative complications as ineffective adaptive responses extends the need for evaluation and intervention of the nursing team during the postoperative period, ensuring unique disciplinary management.
