Cardiomyopathy VII: Pre and Post Operative Nursing Management01:28

Cardiomyopathy VII: Pre and Post Operative Nursing Management

27
Patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction who remain symptomatic despite optimal medical therapy may undergo a septal myectomy (Morrow procedure). This procedure involves excising a portion of the hypertrophied septum below the aortic valve using a heart-lung machine to improve blood flow through the LVOT. Effective preoperative and postoperative nursing management ensures successful patient outcomes, minimizes complications, and...

Endoscopic Procedures IV: Sigmoidoscopy and Laproscopy

158
Sigmoidoscopy and laparoscopy are distinct medical procedures that enable physicians to internally inspect different parts of the GI tract. Although they serve different purposes, each is essential for diagnosing and, in some cases, treating various medical conditions.
Sigmoidoscopy
Sigmoidoscopy is a diagnostic procedure that uses a flexible sigmoidoscope equipped with a light source and camera to examine the rectum and sigmoid colon. The procedure involves inserting the tube through the anus...

General Anesthesia: Overview01:24

General Anesthesia: Overview

275
Anesthesia is a medical procedure that uses drugs for CNS suppression to enable painless surgeries and procedures. The selection of anesthetics is influenced by their pharmacokinetic properties, side effects, and patient characteristics. Various types of anesthesia include general, local, regional, spinal, and inhalational.
General anesthesia induces unconsciousness in the whole body, while the others target specific areas or sensations. It is administered to minimize adverse effects, maintain...

Area of Science:

  • Perioperative Medicine
  • Surgical Care Improvement
  • Healthcare Quality Improvement

Background:

  • Perioperative medicine offers integrated, patient-centered care throughout the surgical journey.
  • High-quality perioperative care is linked to reduced complications, improved patient outcomes, enhanced satisfaction, and lower healthcare costs.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline key concepts of perioperative medicine.
  • To explore practice transformation for improved perioperative care.
  • To present findings and recommendations from the Getting It Right First Time (GIRFT) national report.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of key findings and recommendations from the GIRFT national report on perioperative medicine.
  • Information gathered from 72 visits and 119 surveys from NHS trusts in England.
  • Identification of exemplary practices and variations in perioperative care provision.

Main Results:

  • Exemplary perioperative care practices exist across the country.
  • Significant variation in access to and provision of perioperative care was identified.
  • An implementation gap in adopting best practices was noted.

Conclusions:

  • Transformation of perioperative care pathways is required to address unwarranted variation.
  • A patient-centered approach and multi-professional collaboration are essential for improving care.
  • Widespread adoption of best practices is necessary to enhance perioperative medicine outcomes.
