Objective: to assess the effect of an educational booklet on postoperative care for general surgeries, focusing on knowledge and adherence to care. Method: a randomized controlled clinical trial with 42 participants, allocated to a control group and an intervention group (1:1). Data collection occurred between January and February 2023, in two phases: at discharge, the control group received the institution's protocol, while the intervention group was exposed to the booklet. After seven days, both groups answered questions regarding knowledge and adherence to postoperative care. The research was approved by the Research Ethics Committee. Results: there was an improvement in the experimental group's knowledge across all items. In the control group, improvement was observed only in care related to diet (p=0.032) and medication (p=0.000). Regarding adherence, the intervention group demonstrated better assimilation of the care. Conclusion: The educational booklet had a positive impact on patients' knowledge and adherence to postoperative care.
