80.7% of perioperative nursing professionals with moderate to high stress.	Base unit: “Exposure to stressors in daily professional life and symptoms of generalized anxiety”.	In the perception of those investigated, moderate and high stressors include the deficit of human resources and the lack of mutual support between co-workers, which causes work overload.
49.1% of perioperative nursing professionals with generalized anxiety present: 36.8% with moderate anxiety and 12.3% with severe anxiety.	Base unit: “Exposure to stressors in daily professional life and symptoms of generalized anxiety”.	A significant portion of the professionals investigated had moderate anxiety. This outcome can lead to psychosomatic symptoms such as skin lesions and also an increase in food intake.
Strong and direct correlation between high level of stress and generalized anxiety disorder (r=0.827; p^‡=0.001).	Central category: “Everyday professional life as a generator of anxiety and stress”. Base unit: “Exposure to stressors in daily professional life and symptoms of generalized anxiety”. Three categories of analysis: “Sometimes we cannot handle it: Work overload”; “Weaknesses in teamwork” and “Symptoms of anxiety and stress: environment and work routine repercussions”.	In the statements, daily professional life was considered a severe/high stressor for the outcome of anxiety symptoms. Work overload was highlighted as a possible key factor related to stress and anxiety. There is a work scenario with factors that contribute to this overload, such as deficits in staffing, high demands for agility or performance and lack of standardization. Professionals find themselves stressed and anxious in the face of adversities and self-reported weaknesses in the perioperative work environment. These include little interprofessional collaboration and governance over work routines, and dichotomy between management and care practice. These weaknesses directly influence the work practice carried out by them. Nursing professionals working in perioperative units, stressed and anxious, can have an impact on patient safety, with occurrence of incidents. There is negative feedback between working conditions and patient safety. The lack of human resources for a high demand for work in the investigated units is a stressor that causes anxiety.
Professionals with very high (n=3; 100%) and high (n=17; 70.8%) stress had anxiety (p<0.001).
