Fractures: Bone Repair01:27

Fractures: Bone Repair

3.8K
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...

Flail Chest-II01:26

Flail Chest-II

261
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.

Restorative Care01:19

Restorative Care

2.1K
Restorative care is provided once a patient has been discharged from a healthcare facility and requires additional services. The additional services include home care, rehabilitation programs, and extended care. Restorative care centers help the patient regain their previous level of functioning or acquire a new level of functioning due to the incapacitating effects of a disease or a disability. It aims to assist patients in enhancing their quality of life by encouraging independence,...

Tracheostomy Care I: Pre-procedural Steps

411
A tracheostomy is a surgical technique that involves making an incision in the neck to provide access to the trachea. It is frequently used in medical conditions such as airway obstruction and prolonged mechanical ventilation. Effective nursing management is crucial for the long-term success of a tracheostomy.

PPE Use in Healthcare Settings I: Donning

1.3K
Donning PPE must be completed before contact with the patient. This process protects from infectious agents. The sequence and action included in each donning are critical, and the steps must be systematic to avoid exposure to pathogens. The institutional policy also needs to be followed while donning PPE. The pre-donning preparations are gathering equipment, inspecting the PPE equipment for tears, holes, or damage, removing jewelry, removing any garments below the elbows, and tying the hair...

Tracheostomy Care II: Procedure01:25

Tracheostomy Care II: Procedure

505
Tracheostomy care is an essential nursing skill that involves cleaning and maintaining a tracheostomy tube to prevent infection and other complications. Here's a step-by-step guide explaining each procedure with its rationale. Note that disposable gloves are to be worn at all times and changed as often as needed to maintain a sterile work environment, and to protect both patient and healthcare worker.
Step 1: Perform hand hygiene, and put on personal protective equipment: gown, gloves, mask...

Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Special Needs Care

Background:

  • Clinical dental treatment is a demanding procedure for individuals with special needs.
  • It involves precise instrumentation near sensitive oral tissues, airway, and face.
  • Despite 90% of patients being manageable in general practices, a trend towards sedation is observed.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the shift in managing patients with special needs in dental settings.
  • To discuss the implications of increased pharmacologic management.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current clinical practices for patients with special needs.
  • Analysis of trends in sedation and general anesthesia use.

Main Results:

  • A significant shift towards pharmacologic management (sedation, general anesthesia) for patients with special needs.

Conclusions:

  • The trend towards pharmacologic management in dentistry for special needs patients warrants further investigation.
  • Exploring alternatives to sedation and anesthesia for routine dental care is crucial.
