Fractures: Bone Repair01:27

Fractures: Bone Repair

Treatment for a fracture is based on the type of break, the bone affected, and the patient's age.
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the procedure...

Peripheral Artery Disease V: Postoperative Nursing Management

During the postoperative period, it is crucial to focus on maintaining circulation, identifying and managing potential complications, and planning for discharge.Nursing AssessmentVital signs monitoring: Regularly monitor vital signs, including blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, and temperature, to detect early signs of complications such as bleeding and infection.Circulation assessment: Monitor pulses, perform Doppler assessments, and check capillary refill, color, temperature, and...

Aneurysm IV: Nursing Management

Vigilant monitoring for aneurysm rupture is essential for patients undergoing aortic surgery.Preoperative Nursing ManagementContinuously monitor the patient for manifestations of aneurysm rupture, such as pallor, weakness, tachycardia, hypotension, abdominal, back, groin, or periumbilical pain, changes in consciousness, and a pulsating abdominal mass. Regularly assess the patient's peripheral pulses.Instruct the patient to consume a clear liquid diet the day before surgery and administer...
Flail Chest-II01:26

Flail Chest-II

Managing flail chest, a condition characterized by a segment of the chest wall moving independently from the rest of the thoracic cage, requires a comprehensive approach. It includes a thorough assessment of the patient's condition, a diagnostic evaluation to determine the extent of the injury, and the implementation of appropriate medical interventions tailored to the individual's needs.

Summary

Nursing staff addressed surgical delays for pediatric trauma patients. Implementing a flowchart and whiteboard improved the admission process, enhancing care for children and families awaiting surgery.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Healthcare Management
  • Action Research

Background:

  • Delays in surgical theatre for pediatric orthopaedic trauma patients cause concern for staff and families.
  • Current care processes may lack clarity and efficiency, contributing to prolonged waiting times.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate and reduce delays in the surgical admission process for pediatric orthopaedic trauma patients.
  • To improve the care experience for children and their families awaiting surgery.

Main Methods:

  • A facilitated action research approach was employed.
  • Information was gathered from various sources to understand the issue.
  • Changes to the care process were introduced, including a flowchart and a whiteboard for patient information.

Minimally Invasive Treatment for Thoracolumbar Burst Fracture Using Sagittal Alignment Screws and A Trauma Reduction Device

Published on: November 8, 2024

Main Results:

  • A flowchart was developed to delineate admission stages and involved staff.
  • A whiteboard was implemented to track 'trauma' patient information.
  • The action research process facilitated skill development in research and change management for staff.

Conclusions:

  • Facilitated action research provides a practical method for healthcare staff to address process inefficiencies.
  • The implemented changes aimed to streamline the admission process for pediatric trauma surgery.
  • This approach empowers staff to develop transferable skills in research and change management.
