Pulse rhythm01:30

Pulse rhythm

924
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...

Types of Reports III: Telephone and Verbal Reports

807
Telephone and Verbal Reports in healthcare settings are two communication methods for conveying therapeutic instructions from healthcare providers to nurses or other healthcare staff.
Here's an overview of each type:

Hospitals-II

827
Hospitals provide inpatient and outpatient services. Inpatient services provide care to patients that stay in the hospital for an extended period, ranging from days to months. Examples of inpatient services include intensive care units, hospital wards, or surgeries. Outpatient services provide care to patients who come to a hospital for a diagnostic or treatment but do not stay overnight —for example, diagnostic tests, surgical procedures, or health education.

Cardiac Catheterization IV: Nursing Management

191
Nursing responsibilities before cardiac catheterization include:Assess for allergies and establish baseline health status.Before cardiac catheterization, assess the patient for allergies to contrast dye. Perform a comprehensive baseline assessment, including vital signs, heart and breath sounds, and a neurovascular assessment of the extremities, noting distal pulses, skin color, and temperature. Instruct the patient to fast for 8-12 hours before the procedure. Evaluate baseline laboratory...

Endoscopic Procedures V: ERCP01:26

Endoscopic Procedures V: ERCP

883
Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a diagnostic procedure that combines endoscopy and fluoroscopy to diagnose and treat conditions related to the bile ducts, pancreatic ducts, and gallbladder. This procedure is beneficial for identifying and addressing blockages, gallstones, strictures, and tumors within the biliary or pancreatic systems. ERCP is both diagnostic and therapeutic, offering the ability to visualize and treat identified problems in one session.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Technology
  • Surgical Care
  • Nursing Informatics

Background:

  • Continuous vital sign monitoring is crucial for early detection of postoperative complications.
  • Traditional manual monitoring is time-consuming and provides intermittent data.
  • Wearable devices offer potential for enhanced early warning systems and reduced nurse workload.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the implementation and feasibility of continuous monitoring using photoplethysmography (viQtor device) in a surgical ward.
  • To assess the impact of wearable technology on nursing workload and workflow usability.

Main Methods:

  • Prospective observational implementation study (REQUEST study) over 8 months.
  • Continuous monitoring of 500 postoperative patients using viQtor device (heart rate, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation).
  • Comparison of manual spot checks versus wearable device as primary monitoring tool; assessment of nursing workload and usability.

Main Results:

  • Staff training completed; full implementation ongoing.
  • Preliminary findings on usability and workload expected July 2025.
  • Device performance metrics, questionnaires (EBPS, SUS), and focus groups will be analyzed.

Conclusions:

  • The study will provide insights into the practical implementation of continuous vital sign monitoring in surgical settings.
  • Findings may support the future adoption of wearable technology in clinical workflows.
