Aims:

We aimed to evaluate the number and success rate of procedures performed by the paediatrics residents in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) such as intubation, umbilical venous catheter (UVC), and epicutaneous cava catheter (ECC) placement.

Methods:

We prospectively collected data for NICU residents from 1 May 2020 to 1 May 2022. They reported online the number of procedures they performed, their success, and answered a motivational questionnaire.

Results:

Eighteen residents participated. They performed a median number of 11 (1-24) intubation attempts, with a success rate of 116/171 (68%). After four successful attempts in a row, residents exceeded a 75% success rate. They performed a median number of 10 (2-26) UVC insertions, with a success rate of 162/174 (93%) attempts after procedures lasting 40 (12-90) min. Residents did not acquire skills in ECC placement, with only 91/250 (36%) successful attempts after 14 (4-24) attempts and a procedure duration of 55 (25-180) min. The residents who repeated the most procedures were the most competent.

Conclusions:

Residents attempted an average of 11 intubations, 10 UVCs, and 14 ECCs placements during their semester. Intubation and UVC placement may be acquired by residents after one semester in the NICU. A follow up of their skills may improve their learning.

Techniques of therapeutic communication I: Active Listening, Sharing Observations, Validation, and Using Touch

The history of therapeutic communication can be traced back to Florence Nightingale, who emphasized the importance of developing trusting relationships with patients. She taught that the presence of nurses with patients results in therapeutic healing.
Therapeutic communication is not the same as social interaction. Social interaction has no goal or purpose and consists of casual information sharing, whereas therapeutic communication has a plan or purpose for the conversation. Therapeutic...

Assessment of Airway, Skin Color, and Use of Accessory Muscles

A thorough assessment of respiratory health is paramount in clinical settings to identify and manage respiratory distress and ensure adequate oxygenation. This article elaborates on the critical aspects of respiratory evaluation, including airway assessment, skin color examination, and the observation of accessory muscle use, which are integral to effectively diagnosing and managing patients with respiratory conditions.
