Patient safety during anesthetic procedures is a fundamental pillar in medical practice, aiming to mitigate risks and prevent adverse events. In this context, the implementation of effective strategies plays a crucial role in ensuring patient well-being. Objectives: Implement effective strategies in anesthesia to prevent adverse events, ensuring patient safety during surgical procedures. Methodology: The articles found were read, upon reading the articles were subjected to inclusion and exclusion criteria, within the inclusion criteria original articles were considered, which addressed the topic researched and allowed full access to the content of the study, published in the period of 2015 to 2023, in Portuguese and English, totaling 22 articles for the present study. The research was carried out through online access to the National Library of Medicine (PubMed MEDLINE), Scientific Electronic Library Online (SCIELO), Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences (LILACS) databases in March 2024. Results and Discussions:  Consistent application of safety protocols significantly reduced the incidence of adverse events in anesthesia. The effectiveness of these strategies such as the checklist before the procedure, during and after the procedure is highlighted, emphasizing the continuous importance of monitoring and improving practices carried out in the surgical environment during the anesthesia process, further improving patient safety. Conclusion: In summary, the implementation of preventive strategies proves to be crucial in reducing adverse events in anesthesia, strengthening patient safety. The constant evaluation and improvement of these approaches are essential to ensure increasingly safe and effective anesthetic practices.
