Cardiac Catheterization IV: Nursing Management

403
Nursing responsibilities before cardiac catheterization include:Assess for allergies and establish baseline health status.Before cardiac catheterization, assess the patient for allergies to contrast dye. Perform a comprehensive baseline assessment, including vital signs, heart and breath sounds, and a neurovascular assessment of the extremities, noting distal pulses, skin color, and temperature. Instruct the patient to fast for 8-12 hours before the procedure. Evaluate baseline laboratory...

Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography

701
Introduction:
Abdominal ultrasonography, commonly known as abdominal ultrasound, is a vital, non-invasive medical imaging technique widely used in healthcare.
Procedure:
This diagnostic tool allows the clinician to visually inspect internal structures within the abdomen, including vital organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen.
The abdominal ultrasound process begins with applying a special gel to the patient's skin over the abdomen. This gel enhances the...

Summary

A new simulation-based mastery learning curriculum significantly improved nurses' ultrasound-guided peripheral intravenous catheter (USGPIV) insertion skills and confidence. This training enhances patient care for those with difficult intravenous access (DIVA).

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Education
  • Medical Simulation
  • Vascular Access

Background:

  • Difficult intravenous access (DIVA) is a common challenge in hospitals.
  • Ultrasound-guided peripheral intravenous catheter (USGPIV) insertion is an effective solution for DIVA.
  • Optimal training for nurses in USGPIV insertion remains underexplored.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a novel, sustainable simulation-based mastery learning (SBML) curriculum for nurses performing USGPIV insertions.
  • To assess the impact of the SBML curriculum on nurses' skills, self-confidence, and clinical practice.

Main Methods:

  • A prospective cohort study evaluated an USGPIV SBML program over 12 months.
  • Skills and self-confidence were measured pre- and post-training.
  • Nurse progression to independent practice, proctor, and instructor roles was tracked.
  • Procedure logs and surveys assessed real-world patient USGPIV utilization 3 months post-intervention.

Main Results:

  • USGPIV skill scores significantly increased post-training (median 29.0 vs. 6.0, P < 0.001).
  • Nurse self-confidence in USGPIV insertion substantially improved (mean 3.85 vs. 2.32, P < 0.001).
  • 62% achieved independent status, 47.5% became proctors, and 11.3% became trainers.
  • At 3 months, nurses performed an average of 35.6 USGPIV insertions with an 89.5% success rate.

Conclusions:

  • The novel USGPIV SBML curriculum effectively enhances nurses' insertion skills and self-confidence.
  • This training program leads to improved patient care through successful USGPIV insertions in hospitalized patients with DIVA.
  • The developed curriculum offers a sustainable model for advanced nursing procedural training.
