Pre-Procedural Guidelines for Assessing Blood Pressure01:10

Pre-Procedural Guidelines for Assessing Blood Pressure

563
Accurate blood pressure assessment is crucial for diagnosing and managing various health conditions. To ensure the reliability of these measurements, healthcare professionals must adhere to standardized pre-procedural guidelines. These guidelines enhance patient safety and improve the overall quality of healthcare. The following steps are essential for obtaining accurate and consistent blood pressure readings, from using the appropriate tools to ensuring effective communication with the...

Pulse rhythm01:30

Pulse rhythm

797
Pulse rhythm refers to the pattern of pulsations within specific intervals, offering valuable insights into the regularity or irregularity of the heart's beats as observed through the pattern of pulsation within specific intervals. A regular pulse exhibits a consistent heart rate with uniform waveforms and pulsation force, variations of which can be classified as normal, weak, or bounding.
Conversely, an irregular pulse pattern is termed dysrhythmia, stemming from disruptions in cardiac...

Assessment of the Cardiovascular System III: Palpation

337
Palpation involves feeling the body to evaluate texture, size, consistency, and tenderness for assessing cardiovascular health. The following steps are organized in a head-to-toe order:
Jugular Venous Pressure (JVP) Measurement
Position the patient at a thirty- to forty-five-degree angle or in a semi-fowler's position. Look for the highest point of pulsation in the internal jugular vein and measure the vertical distance to the angle of Loius or sternal angle. A normal JVP is 3-4 cm above...

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Patient Engagement
  • Mobile Health

Background:

  • Healthcare consumers need effective resources for navigating complex medical needs.
  • Existing resources may not always be optimally designed for user needs.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the utility, usability, and feasibility of the IV Passport mobile health application.
  • To assess the experiences of children, families, and adults using the IV Passport for long-term intravenous therapy.

Main Methods:

  • A multi-site, parallel, multi-method, prospective cohort study.
  • 46 participants (20 adults, 26 children/family) used the IV Passport for up to 6 months.
  • Data collected through participant reporting on experiences.

Main Results:

  • 78.3% of participants found the IV Passport useful, with high planned future use, especially in the pediatric cohort.
  • Acceptability was high (9/10), with primary use for documenting devices and complications.
  • Qualitative analysis identified themes of patient advocacy, healthcare complexity, and app design.

Conclusions:

  • The IV Passport is a safe and appropriate tool for supporting healthcare consumers.
  • Patient/parent feedback indicates its value for record-keeping and clinician communication.
  • Recommendations include enhancing 'how-to' guides and scheduling features.
