Suctioning the Oropharyngeal Airway01:25

Suctioning the Oropharyngeal Airway

206
In preparing for oropharyngeal airway suctioning, a nurse must gather all necessary equipment, including a suction unit with tubing, a prepackaged suction kit, sterile gloves, water or saline for irrigation, a water-soluble lubricant, and additional personal protective equipment (such as a gown, mask, and goggles) to control infections.
After assembling the equipment, the nurse should practice hand hygiene and don appropriate PPE according to infection control guidelines to avoid the...

Tracheostomy Suctioning II: Procedure

222
Tracheostomy suctioning is a vital nursing procedure that involves removing secretions from the tracheostomy tube to maintain airway patency and prevent respiratory complications. Nurses need to understand the proper technique for tracheostomy suctioning to ensure patient safety and comfort. In this guide, we will outline the step-by-step process for performing tracheostomy suctioning, including preparing the sterile field, donning personal protective equipment (PPE), lubricating and connecting...

Handwashing I: Introduction and Types of Equipment

4.1K
Handwashing is hand hygiene with plain or antimicrobial soap and water to physically remove dirt, organic material, and microorganisms. However, it may not kill all microorganisms. The handwashing procedure requires a hand wash basin, liquid soap, paper towels, a domestic waste bin, and disposable nail cleaner as optional equipment.
Hand wash basins in clinical areas should have faucets that can be turned on and off without using the hands; that is, they should be non-touch or lever-operated....

Assessment of the Rectum and Anus

202
Evaluating the rectum and anus plays a crucial role in conducting a thorough physical examination of the gastrointestinal system. Although it may be uncomfortable and often embarrassing for the patient, it holds immense diagnostic value, particularly in detecting gastrointestinal diseases and abnormalities. This guide will explain how to perform this assessment using inspection and palpation methods.
Rectal Inspection
Begin by inspecting the perianal and anal areas for color, texture, rashes,...

Parentral Nutrition: Centeral and Peripheral Parental Nutrition01:27

Parentral Nutrition: Centeral and Peripheral Parental Nutrition

144
Parenteral Nutrition (PN) delivers essential nutrients directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. It is commonly used for individuals with severe digestive disorders or conditions that prevent normal nutrient absorption.
PN can be administered through two primary routes:
1. Central Parenteral Nutrition (CPN):
CPN involves delivering a high concentration of nutrients through a large vein. This is typically achieved using a Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) or,...

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Nursing
  • Qualitative Research

Background:

  • Clean intermittent self-catheterisation (CISC) is a common method for bladder management in patients with voiding dysfunction.
  • CISC is associated with a lower risk of complications and urinary tract infections compared to indwelling catheters.
  • Understanding the patient experience is crucial for effective management and adherence.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the quality-of-life impacts of CISC in men.
  • To identify challenges faced by men undergoing CISC.
  • To provide insights for nurses teaching CISC to improve concordance and adherence.

Main Methods:

  • This study conducted a narrative review of existing qualitative research.
  • The review focused on studies examining the male experience with CISC.
  • Analysis synthesized findings related to quality of life and adherence challenges.

Main Results:

  • Men experience unique challenges with CISC affecting their quality of life.
  • Factors influencing concordance and adherence in men were identified.
  • Qualitative data revealed specific psychosocial impacts of CISC on men.

Conclusions:

  • Nurses require specific insights into the male experience to optimize CISC teaching.
  • Addressing identified challenges can improve patient concordance and adherence to CISC.
  • Informed clinical practice can enhance the quality of life for men using CISC.
