Tracheostomy Care I: Pre-procedural Steps01:16

Tracheostomy Care I: Pre-procedural Steps

A tracheostomy is a surgical technique that involves making an incision in the neck to provide access to the trachea. It is frequently used in medical conditions such as airway obstruction and prolonged mechanical ventilation. Effective nursing management is crucial for the long-term success of a tracheostomy.
Required Equipment
The equipment necessary for tracheostomy care includes:

Area of Science:

  • Robotic Surgery
  • Surgical Education
  • Team Training

Background:

  • Bedside assistants are crucial in robotic operations, but training pathways vary significantly.
  • Standardized skills are needed for effective team collaboration in robotic surgery.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop consensus guidelines for essential bedside assistant skills.
  • To define skill requirements for all members of the robotic surgery team.

Main Methods:

  • A Delphi process was employed with 14 experts in robotic bedside assistant education.
  • An initial skill list was generated from literature, training materials, and expert input.
  • Two rounds of consensus-building were conducted, with 80% agreement defining consensus.

Main Results:

  • Consensus was reached on 253 out of 305 items (83%).
  • Specific skill sets were defined for basic (52 skills) and advanced (60 skills) bedside assistants.
  • Skill requirements were also established for surgeons (54), surgical technologists (25), and circulating nurses (17).
  • Agreement was reached on universal communication skills and basic robotic system knowledge for all team members.

Conclusions:

  • Consensus guidelines for robotic surgery team skills were successfully developed.
  • These guidelines can inform the design of training programs and assessment tools.
  • Hospitals can utilize these guidelines to standardize expectations for robotic surgical teams.
