Blind Procedures

13.4K
Ideally, the people who observe and record the children’s behavior are unaware of who was assigned to the experimental or control group, in order to control for experimenter bias. Experimenter bias refers to the possibility that a researcher’s expectations might skew the results of the study. Remember, conducting an experiment requires a lot of planning, and the people involved in the research project have a vested interest in supporting their hypotheses. If the observers knew which...

Handwashing II: Pre-procedure and Initial Procedure Steps

1.5K
The pre-procedure steps of handwashing include removing jewelry and rolling up sleeves. However, many organizations allow staff to wear wedding rings.
The hand washing procedure itself includes the following steps. First, cover cuts, if any, on hands with a waterproof dressing. Cuts and abrasions can become contaminated with bacteria hindering the ability to clean the area thoroughly. In addition, repeated hand washing can worsen an injury.  The nails must be short and clean, without nail...

Tracheostomy: Procedure and Tubes01:28

Tracheostomy: Procedure and Tubes

3.2K
A tracheostomy is a surgical procedure that creates an artificial opening into the trachea, typically at the second or third cartilaginous ring level. This opening allows the insertion of a tracheostomy tube, which can replace an endotracheal tube, provide mechanical ventilation, bypass an upper airway obstruction, or remove accumulated tracheobronchial secretions.
Tracheostomy tubes can be made of semiflexible plastic (polyurethane or silicone), rigid plastic, or metal, and they come in...

Tracheostomy Suctioning II: Procedure

1.7K
Tracheostomy suctioning is a vital nursing procedure that involves removing secretions from the tracheostomy tube to maintain airway patency and prevent respiratory complications. Nurses need to understand the proper technique for tracheostomy suctioning to ensure patient safety and comfort. In this guide, we will outline the step-by-step process for performing tracheostomy suctioning, including preparing the sterile field, donning personal protective equipment (PPE), lubricating and connecting...

Endoscopic Procedures I: Esophagogastroduodenoscopy

1.1K
An Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is a diagnostic procedure in which an endoscopist uses a flexible, lighted endoscope to visualize the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The procedure includes visualizing the oropharynx, esophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine, the duodenum.
During an EGD, the endoscope can be used to:

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Regenerative Medicine

Background:

  • Traditional otologic procedures have limitations in visualizing certain middle ear structures.
  • Advancements in endoscopic technology offer new possibilities for diagnosis and treatment.
  • The need for improved outcomes in conditions like tympanic perforations and hearing loss is ongoing.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the impact of endoscopy on otologic practice.
  • To describe endoscopic techniques for myringoplasty and retraction pocket evaluation.
  • To review the utility of intratympanic injections for specific otologic conditions.

Main Methods:

  • Review of endoscopic applications in otologic surgery and clinical settings.

  • Analysis of intratympanic injection therapies for sensorineural hearing loss and Meniere's disease.

Main Results:

  • Endoscopes improve visualization of anterior tympanic perforations, broadening criteria for in-office repair.
  • Endoscopic techniques for myringoplasty using tissue-engineered and porcine-based grafts are detailed.
  • Endoscopic inspection provides valuable pre-operative assessment of deep retraction pockets.
  • Intratympanic injections show potential benefits for sudden sensorineural hearing loss and Meniere's disease.

Conclusions:

  • Endoscopy significantly enhances otologic surgical and clinical practice.
  • Novel endoscopic techniques and graft materials are advancing myringoplasty.
  • Endoscopic evaluation improves surgical planning for complex tympanic membrane issues.
  • Intratympanic injections represent a promising therapeutic avenue for specific inner ear disorders.
