Assessing Body Temperature - Axilla01:14

Assessing Body Temperature - Axilla

1.2K
Procedural Guide for Assessing Axillary Body Temperature using a Digital Thermometer:
Step 1: Perform hand hygiene and put on clean gloves to maintain infection control and prevent cross-contamination.
Step 2: Prepare the patient by explaining the procedure to ensure understanding and cooperation. Ensure privacy, expose the axilla, and inform the patient that minimal movement is crucial for an accurate reading.
Step 3: Adjust the patient’s clothing to expose only the axilla. It minimizes...

The Parathyroid Glands00:59

The Parathyroid Glands

4.3K
The two pairs of parathyroid glands embedded within the posterior surface of the thyroid gland are restricted by a dense capsule around them. These glands comprise two distinct cell populations—parathyroid oxyphil and parathyroid principal cells- pivotal in calcium homeostasis.
Oxyphil cells, whose functions remain elusive, emerge during late puberty, adding a layer of complexity to the parathyroid gland's intricacies. In contrast, principal parathyroid cells undertake a vital role by...

Area of Science:

  • Endocrinology
  • Minimally Invasive Procedures
  • Medical Technology

Background:

  • Thyroid and parathyroid ablation are emerging as minimally invasive alternatives to surgery.
  • Standardized protocols for these procedures are currently lacking.
  • Anatomic proximity necessitates similar procedural considerations for both glands.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a practical guide for thyroid and parathyroid ablation.
  • To standardize essential aspects including qualifications, procedures, techniques, and evaluation.
  • To enhance efficacy and minimize risks associated with these ablations.

Main Methods:

  • Focus on practitioner qualifications and necessary training.
  • Detail preprocedural preparations, anesthetic, and technical considerations.
  • Describe ablation techniques, emphasizing hydrodissection for complication prevention.

Main Results:

  • Outlines essential elements for successful thyroid and parathyroid ablation.
  • Recommends hydrodissection to prevent complications and tissue adhesion.
  • Utilizes contrast-enhanced ultrasound for immediate post-ablation effectiveness evaluation.

Conclusions:

  • Standardization of thyroid and parathyroid ablation protocols is crucial.
  • Proper training, patient selection, and technique are key to efficacy and safety.
  • This guide aims to establish consistent practices for improved patient outcomes.
