Objectives: To analyze the incidence of surgery suspension, to categorize surgical cancellations into medical specialties, and to identify its
main causes. Method: Quantitative, descriptive, and retrospective study carried out in a teaching hospital in the Northeast region of Brazil. The population
was composed of 1,600 elective surgeries scheduled from January to September in 2013. Data analysis was performed through descriptive statistics.
Results: The overall rate of surgical procedure cancellation was 19.5%. The most frequent suspensions occurred in pediatric, oncology, and general
surgeries. Twenty-three causes for surgery cancellation were found in the institution, amongst them patients’ absence and institutional conditions represented
mainly by problems with material, human, and organization service-related resources. Conclusion: The rate of surgery cancellation refers to the
need of reducing it; for such, it is necessary to monitor this indicator continuously and to implement strategies for its reduction.
