Abstract:
Fistulas are defined as abnormal connections between 2 organ, vessels, or structures. They can often present in the genitourinary tract as a result of iatrogenic injury during pelvic surgery. A 46-year-old female presents many years after a hysterectomy for persistent vaginal leakage with concern for a vesicovaginal fistula. Computed tomography urogram, intravenous retrograde pyelogram, and cystoscopy were negative for vesicovaginal fistula; however, a vaginal sinus tract was noted and further explored. This case report will describe the use of both laparoscopy and concomitant vaginoscopy to diagnose and, ultimately, surgically excise a salpingovaginal fistula.

Assessment of apical pulse
Assessing the apical pulse is a critical nursing procedure, particularly indicated for:
Assessment of apical radial pulse
The A-R pulse assessment involves simultaneous evaluation of the apical and radial pulses. When the apical and radial pulse rates vary, this assessment helps identify a pulse deficit.

ECG Interpretation of Arrhythmias I: Sinus Arrhythmias
Types of Arrhythmias
Sinus Node Arrhythmias
Sinus Bradycardia: Originating from the sinoatrial (SA) node, sinus bradycardia involves slower impulses, resulting in a heart rate of less than 60 beats per minute (bpm). Causes include sleep, vagal stimulation, beta-blockers, hypothyroidism,...
