Introduction:
Major ambulatory surgery has experienced a growing increase in recent years. This modality has gone hand in hand with new challenges for nursing professionals, who carry out postoperative follow-up of these users by using different telehealth tools.
Objective:
To identify, in scientific databases, the main telehealth tools used in the follow-up of patients who received major ambulatory surgery.
Methods:

Using the PRISMA methodology, the keywords Teleenfermería [Tele-nursing], Procedimientos quirúrgicos ambulatorios [ambulatory surgical procedures], Monitoreo ambulatorio [ambulatory monitoring], telemedicine [telemedicine], and Cuidados posoperatorios [postoperative care] were used, with the operators AND and OR. Ten articles were selected and content analysis was carried out with them.
