Suctioning the Oropharyngeal Airway01:25

Suctioning the Oropharyngeal Airway

In preparing for oropharyngeal airway suctioning, a nurse must gather all necessary equipment, including a suction unit with tubing, a prepackaged suction kit, sterile gloves, water or saline for irrigation, a water-soluble lubricant, and additional personal protective equipment (such as a gown, mask, and goggles) to control infections.
After assembling the equipment, the nurse should practice hand hygiene and don appropriate PPE according to infection control guidelines to avoid the...

Suctioning the Nasopharyngeal Airway

Nasopharyngeal suctioning is a procedure to remove secretions from the upper part of the respiratory tract that the patient cannot clear independently. It helps maintain airway patency and prevents complications such as aspiration pneumonia.

Comparative Excretory Systems

Animals have evolved different strategies for excretion, the removal of waste from the body. Most waste must be dissolved in water to be excreted, so an animal’s excretory strategy directly affects its water balance.

Area of Science:

  • Obstetrics and Gynecology
  • Medical Device Technology

Background:

  • Vacuum-assisted delivery is a common obstetric procedure.
  • Single-use vacuum devices offer potential benefits in terms of infection control and ease of use.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare the effectiveness of two single-use vacuum devices: the Kiwi Omnicup and the Mitysoft Bell.
  • To evaluate secondary outcomes including fetal scalp trauma and maternal perineal lesions.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective study comparing Kiwi Omnicup (Jan 15-Mar 14) and Mitysoft Bell (Mar 15-Jun 15).
  • Primary outcome: successful vaginal delivery.
  • Secondary outcomes: fetal scalp trauma, maternal perineal lesions.
  • Deliveries performed by similar clinical teams.

Main Results:

  • Kiwi Omnicup group: 39 patients; Mitysoft Bell group: 48 patients.
  • Mitysoft Bell had significantly more cup detachments (41.7% vs. 10.3%; p<0.01).
  • Mitysoft Bell demonstrated a higher failure rate (31.3% vs. 12.8%).
  • No significant difference in fetal scalp or maternal perineal trauma between devices.

Conclusions:

  • The Mitysoft Bell is less successful in achieving vaginal delivery compared to the Kiwi Omnicup.
  • The difference in effectiveness may be attributed to the Mitysoft Bell's cup design.
  • Further research into device design and its impact on delivery outcomes is warranted.
