This research was linked to a research workshop which was held during the ACORN & ASIORNA Conference in 2018.  The aim of the workshop was to explore the research evidence supporting the ACORN Standards for Perioperative Nursing.  Gaps in the evidence and challenges associated with implementing the standards were also explored.  Potential areas for further research were identified, which created the impetus for the current study. The aim of the study was to prioritise research topics identified during the workshop held in Adelaide, and to identify gaps for consideration and inclusion in the ACORN standards.  
This presentation will include an overview of the research project and present potential topics identified in the study.
