Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan01:13

Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan

143
Radiological investigations are paramount in the diagnosis and management of various pulmonary diseases. Two essential investigations are the Pulmonary Angiogram and the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Scan.
Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...

Cardiomyopathy VII: Pre and Post Operative Nursing Management

22
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 Studies I: Bronchoscopy and Thoracoscopy01:30

Endoscopic Studies I: Bronchoscopy and Thoracoscopy

258
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...

Nursing Interventions I: Taxonomy of Nursing Interventions

2.7K
Nursing interventions are chosen as part of the planning process to achieve patient outcomes. Once nursing diagnoses are determined, the goals and outcomes are specified, then the nursing interventions are selected and individualized according to the patient's situation.
A nursing intervention is a treatment or action based on scientific concepts and knowledge from the nursing, behavioral, and physical sciences. Identifying and prioritizing nursing interventions based on the desired outcome...

Endoscopic Procedures IV: Sigmoidoscopy and Laproscopy01:26

Endoscopic Procedures IV: Sigmoidoscopy and Laproscopy

149
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...

Area of Science:

  • Interventional Radiology
  • Oncology
  • Pharmacology

Background:

  • Interventional radiology (IR) is crucial in managing malignant neoplasms through ablative and endovascular therapies.
  • Optimizing patient outcomes and experience in IR procedures requires careful consideration of the periprocedural period.
  • Pharmacologic agents are vital for managing infections, pain, and side effects during IR interventions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review commonly used medications in interventional oncology procedures.
  • To highlight the role of pharmacologic agents in enhancing patient care during IR interventions.
  • To discuss strategies for managing complications and side effects associated with IR procedures.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of common medications used in interventional oncology.
  • Discussion of pharmacologic classes including antibiotics, narcotics, sedatives, and antiemetics.
  • Analysis of medication roles in infection prevention, pain management, and side effect mitigation.

Main Results:

  • Antibiotics are essential for preventing infectious complications.
  • Narcotics and sedatives are frequently used for pain control and patient comfort.
  • Antiemetics help manage nausea and vomiting, improving the patient experience.
  • Other medications play supportive roles in managing side effects and optimizing procedural success.

Conclusions:

  • Appropriate pharmacologic management is integral to successful interventional oncology procedures.
  • Medication selection and administration directly impact patient safety, outcomes, and overall experience.
  • A comprehensive understanding of periprocedural medications is necessary for interventional radiologists and oncologists.
