The care is a determining factor of its evolution and the appearance of complications. Therefore, we sought to describe the level of knowledge of patients surgically treated at the time of hospital discharge. The study was quantitative, descriptive, prospective, cross-sectional and observational. The sample was non-probabilistic, for convenience. The variables knowledge level in healing of surgical wounds, signs and symptoms of alarm, medication administration and feeding were studied. The data collection instrument was a survey of multiple responses to be filled out by each patient. Forty patients who underwent surgery at the time of hospital discharge were interviewed. The results showed that 60% had sufficient knowledge about surgical wound healing, while in 27% this was regular and 13% insufficient. Regarding signs of alarm and administration of indicated medications, 98% showed sufficient knowledge, only 8% showed regular knowledge. As for food at home, 98% of patients had sufficient knowledge and only in 2% this was regular. While in general sufficient knowledge was observed in patients before discharge, it is necessary to deepen their training in terms of the most appropriate solutions for wound healing as well as healing techniques and the taking of analgesics after food. Todo paciente sometido a intervención quirúrgica requiere un tratamiento postquirúrgico integral,  atendiendo a sus necesidades para favorecer el adecuado cuidado y la cicatrización de las heridas. El  cuidado es un factor determinante de su evolución y de la aparición de complicaciones. Por ello, se buscó describir el nivel de conocimiento de pacientes intervenidos quirúrgicamente al momento del alta hospitalaria.El estudio fue cuantitativo, descriptivo, prospectivo, transversal y observacional. La muestra fue no probabilística, por conveniencia. Se estudiaron las variables nivel de conocimiento en curación de heridas quirúrgicas, signos y síntomas de alarma, administración de medicamentos y alimentación. El instrumento de recolección de datos fue una encuesta de respuestas múltiples a rellenar por cada paciente. Se entrevistaron 40 pacientes intervenidos quirúrgicamente al momento del alta hospitalaria. Los resultados mostraron que el 60% tenía conocimientos suficientes sobre curación de herida quirúrgica, mientras que en 27% esto era regular y en 13% insuficiente. En lo referido a signos de alarma y administración de medicamentos indicados, el 98% evidenció conocimientos suficientes, solo 8% mostró conocimientos regulares. En cuanto a la alimentación en el hogar, el 98% de los pacientes tenía conocimientos suficientes y sólo en el 2% esto fue regular. Si bien en general se observaron conocimientos suficientes en los pacientes antes del alta, es necesario profundizar su capacitación en cuanto a las soluciones más adecuadas para la curación de las heridas así como las técnicas de curación y la toma de analgésicos luego de los alimentos.
