Postoperative Nursing Management for Kidney Transplant PatientsPostoperative nursing management care includes monitoring the surgical site, encouraging early movement, and promoting lung health through breathing exercises. Nurses also administer prescribed medications like H2-blockers, such as famotidine, or proton pump inhibitors, like omeprazole, to help prevent gastrointestinal ulcers and bleeding. Fungal infections in the mouth and bladder can result from immunosuppressive and antibiotic...

Endoscopic Procedures IV: Sigmoidoscopy and Laproscopy

548
Sigmoidoscopy and laparoscopy are distinct medical procedures that enable physicians to internally inspect different parts of the GI tract. Although they serve different purposes, each is essential for diagnosing and, in some cases, treating various medical conditions.
Sigmoidoscopy
Sigmoidoscopy is a diagnostic procedure that uses a flexible sigmoidoscope equipped with a light source and camera to examine the rectum and sigmoid colon. The procedure involves inserting the tube through the anus...

Cardiomyopathy VII: Pre and Post Operative Nursing Management

278
Patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction who remain symptomatic despite optimal medical therapy may undergo a septal myectomy (Morrow procedure). This procedure involves excising a portion of the hypertrophied septum below the aortic valve using a heart-lung machine to improve blood flow through the LVOT. Effective preoperative and postoperative nursing management ensures successful patient outcomes, minimizes complications, and...

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Gastroenterology
  • Healthcare Transition

Background:

  • Increasing number of children with complex gastrointestinal diseases survive to adulthood with significant surgical histories.
  • The transition from pediatric to adult surgical care presents challenges, increasing the risk of patients being lost to follow-up.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the literature on the transfer of care from pediatric to adult surgical services.
  • To provide actionable interventions for optimizing this transition, with a focus on rural environments.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of current practices and challenges in pediatric to adult surgical care transition.
  • Identification of patient, pediatric surgeon, adult surgeon, and system-based factors influencing successful transitions.

Main Results:

  • Successful transition requires patient/family education, gradual patient ownership, early initiation by pediatric surgeons, education of adult surgeons, and multidisciplinary clinics.
  • System support, including staff and financial resources, is vital.
  • Rurality presents unique challenges for transitioning patients and providers.

Conclusions:

  • Optimizing surgical care transitions for pediatric patients requires a multidisciplinary approach involving patients, families, pediatric and adult surgeons, and healthcare systems.
  • Specific strategies are needed to address the unique challenges faced by rural populations.
