Pain01:20

Pain

472
Pain serves as a critical warning signal that alerts the body to potential or actual harm. When mechanical pressure on the skin is intense, such as from a sharp pinch, the sensation transitions from touch to pain. Similarly, extreme temperatures, like a hot pot handle, convert the sensation of heat into pain. Pain can also result from overstimulation of other senses, such as blinding light, loud noise, or the intense heat from habañero peppers. This ability to sense pain is essential for...

Blood and Nerve Supply to the Bones01:29

Blood and Nerve Supply to the Bones

10.8K
Bones are dynamic organs that require a rich supply of oxygen and nutrients. Around 5% to 10% of the cardiac output supplies blood to the bones. A typical long bone has three main sources: the nutrient artery, the metaphyseal and epiphyseal arteries, and the periosteal arteries.
Nutrient Artery
The nutrient artery is the main blood vessel that enters the diaphysis via the nutrient foramen. While most long bones have only one nutrient foramen, large bones, such as the femur, may have two. This...

Pneumothorax-II

135
Pneumothorax is a medical condition defined by the buildup of air in the pleural space between the lungs and the chest wall. This accumulation of air can lead to partial or complete lung collapse, resulting in a range of clinical manifestations. Understanding the clinical presentation and effective management strategies is crucial for healthcare professionals in providing timely and appropriate care to individuals with pneumothorax.

Appendicitis-I: Introduction01:22

Appendicitis-I: Introduction

102
The appendix, a small, narrow, blind tube extending from the inferior part of the cecum, is widely regarded as a vestigial organ, having lost much of its original function through evolution. Despite its diminished role, the appendix can become inflamed, a condition known as appendicitis.
Etiology: Appendicitis can arise from various causes, primarily rooted in the obstruction of the appendix lumen. Factors contributing to this obstruction include fecal accumulation, lymphoid hyperplasia and, in...

Analgesia and Pain Management01:25

Analgesia and Pain Management

560
Pain is critical to various clinical pathologies, provoking an urgent need for effective management. Pain, whether acute or chronic, is a complex neurochemical process. Its alleviation depends on the type, with nonopioid analgesics effective for mild to moderate pain, such as musculoskeletal or inflammatory pain, while neuropathic pain responds best to anticonvulsants, tricyclic antidepressants, or serotonin/norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors. For severe acute or chronic pain, opioids may be...

Pneumothorax-I01:26

Pneumothorax-I

190
A pneumothorax is a condition where air builds up in the space between the lung and the chest wall, causing the lung to collapse. This condition arises when air enters the space between the parietal and visceral pleura, disrupting the negative pressure essential for lung inflation. This can lead to a partial or complete collapse of the lung.
Pneumothorax can be even further classified as spontaneous, traumatic, and tension pneumothorax.

Summary

Implementing a functional pain assessment tool in inpatient settings showed promise. While preferred by staff and patients, improved compliance requires further education and support for a successful cultural shift in pain management.

Area of Science:

  • Pain Management
  • Clinical Practice Improvement
  • Healthcare Informatics

Background:

  • Current pain management relies heavily on subjective verbal rating scales.
  • Multi-agency guidelines advocate for objective functional pain assessment tools.
  • Inpatient settings face challenges in consistent and effective pain management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the adoption of a functional pain assessment tool in inpatient clinical practice.
  • To optimize the effectiveness of functional pain assessment for diverse patient groups.
  • To evaluate the impact of a new pain documentation approach on patient care.

Main Methods:

  • Development of an electronic Pain Assessment Tool and Pain Observations Chart.
  • Pilot study conducted across five inpatient wards.
  • Provision of staff training and ongoing support during the pilot.

Main Results:

  • Staff and patients reported a preference for the new functional pain assessment approach over previous methods.
  • The pilot study demonstrated the conceptual viability and effectiveness of the developed tools.
  • Documentation compliance with the new system did not meet initial expectations.

Conclusions:

  • The functional pain assessment tools are effective for pain management in inpatient settings.
  • Successful integration requires addressing barriers to documentation compliance.
  • Further education and support are crucial for embedding this cultural shift in pain management practices.
