Assessment of Respiration01:23

Assessment of Respiration

1.3K
The respiratory system's basic structures and primary functions lay the foundation for nurses' comprehensive respiratory assessments. This assessment includes subjective and objective data to gauge the patient's respiratory health.
Subjective Assessment: Nurses interview the patient to gather information directly during the subjective assessment. It includes questions about the individual's medical history, medications, and symptoms, focusing on past respiratory conditions like...

Guidelines for Writing Outcome01:11

Guidelines for Writing Outcome

3.1K
When developing expected outcomes for a patient care plan, the nurse should adhere to the following recommendations:
Patient outcomes reflect the patient's response to the goal rather than what the nurse aims to achieve. Terminology should be observable and measurable to avoid the reader's interpretation. The desired outcome should be realistic and achievable in the designated care timeframe. Expected outcomes should align with adjunctive therapies. The outcome should enhance care...

Respiratory Assessment: Purpose and Indications

1.3K
Respiratory assessment is a cornerstone of nursing assessments, crucial for the early detection of patient deterioration. This evaluation transcends routine procedures, representing a critical skill nurses must master to ensure optimal patient care.
Objectives and Importance:
The primary goal of respiratory assessment is to evaluate patients at early risk of clinical deterioration. Since respiratory distress often precedes other signs of declining health, breathing patterns and sounds become a...

Endoscopic Studies II: Thoracocentesis01:26

Endoscopic Studies II: Thoracocentesis

573
Thoracentesis(Thoracocentesis), commonly known as pleural tap, is a medical procedure where a 22 gauge needle is inserted into the pleural space, the area between the lung and chest wall. This procedure is commonly performed to diagnose or treat various respiratory disorders.
Description
Excess pleural fluid or air may accumulate in some respiratory disorders in the thoracic cavity. To treat pleural effusion, a physician conducts thoracentesis by carefully piercing the chest wall and entering...

Endoscopic Studies I: Bronchoscopy and Thoracoscopy01:30

Endoscopic Studies I: Bronchoscopy and Thoracoscopy

282
Endoscopy is a non-surgical medical technique used to examine a person's internal organs and vessels. This lesson will focus on two types of endoscopic studies: bronchoscopy and thoracoscopy.
Bronchoscopy
Description
Bronchoscopy is a procedure that involves direct visualization of the larynx, trachea, and bronchi for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. A flexible fiber optic or rigid bronchoscope is used to carry out the procedure. The fiber-optic bronchoscope is more frequently used due...

Methods of Documentation II: POMR01:26

Methods of Documentation II: POMR

1.1K
The Problem-Oriented Medical Record (POMR) revolutionized medical record-keeping by introducing a systematic approach focusing on the patient's problems rather than merely listing symptoms. Dr. Lawrence Weed's introduction of this method in the 1960s marked a significant advancement in medical documentation. The POMR framework consists of four key components: the database, problem list, plan of care, and progress notes.

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Routine patient-reported outcomes (PROs) assessment in thoracic surgery is effective, achieving a 65.7% completion rate. Future work should improve PROs collection for disadvantaged patients.

Area of Science:

  • Surgical Outcomes Research
  • Health Services Research
  • Patient-Reported Outcomes

Background:

  • Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) are crucial for evaluating surgical success and patient care.
  • This study investigated the effectiveness of integrating routine PROs into an academic thoracic surgery practice.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the feasibility and success rate of routine PROs collection in thoracic surgery.
  • To identify barriers and challenges in PROs data acquisition.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized the NIH-sponsored Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) for PROs assessment (pain, function, dyspnea).
  • Collected data electronically via a web-based platform from April 2018 to January 2021.
  • Monitored questionnaire completion rates and implemented adjustments, including a mobile health platform, to address declines.

Main Results:

  • Collected PROs data from 3551 patients across 6899 visits.
  • Achieved an overall questionnaire completion rate of 65.7%.
  • Observed significant variability in monthly completion rates (20%-90%), with a notable decline in April 2020.

Conclusions:

  • Routine PROs assessment is feasible and minimally disruptive in thoracic surgery clinics.
  • Future research should focus on enhancing PROs collection among underserved patient groups and expanding implementation.
