  1. Adonis K. Lomibao 12/3/11 Special Advanced Procedures Unit 51

  2. Objective • Have a basic understanding of special procedures and their indications. • Identify proper steps in performing procedures.

  3. Introduction • Scope and type of assignments given to PCT are influenced by: -Basic operation & experience -advanced training in procedural skills -Facility policy -State laws that specify range of practice

  4. Collecting a Specimen from Closed Urinary Drainage System • Keep in mind urine must be fresh. • Specimen may not be taken from bag. • Procedure to follow depends on kind of foley in place.(p. 908) • Proper technique to avoid introducing infectious organisms into system.

  5. Removing an Indwelling Catheter • May be removed to reduce risk of infection, if obstructed, or for routine change. • Monitor voiding if new catheter isn't inserted by nurse. • Notify nurse if pt. Hasn't voided in 4-6 hours, or complaints of abdominal pain. • Procedure on p.910

  6. Foley Catheter

  7. Ostomies • Ostomy-artificial opening in abdomen for elimination of solid waste and flatus. • Colostomy-colon brought to abdominal wall • Stoma-the mouth of the opening. • Appliance- disposable drainage pouch for stoma. • Problems at stoma site may include, leakage, odor control, and irritation of area.

  8. Colostomy

  9. Ostomy

  10. Ostomies Cont. • Assist pt. With colostomy by: -Keep area clean and dry. -perform routine stoma care. • Initial irrigation done by nurse. • If colostomy to be permanent, patients taught to irrigate themselves.

  11. Care of Patient with Ileostomy • Permanent artificial opening in the ileum draining through a stoma. • Liquid form and contains irritating dig. Enzyme • Considerations for care: -Nurse does care for a NEW ileostomy -Routine care given by PCT's -Drainage is irritating to skin -Fit ring so leakage does not occur

  12. Sterile Technique • Nursing procedures using sterile technique include: -Invasive procedures -Procedure that breaks skin -Procedures that enter body cavity -Changing surgical dressings -Central IVC Dressing changes -Procedures involving severe destruction of the skin

  13. Sterile Technique

  14. Sterile Technique-Environmental Conditions • Environmental conditions: -Clean, dry, flat, stable surface -No airborne contamination -Instruct pt. To avoid touching field & talking, coughing or sneezing over sterile field.

  15. Setting up Field • 1-inch border is NOT sterile • Only top area of surface is sterile. • Sterile supplies can only touch sterile field. • Sterile Gloves-allows you to touch sterile items • Transfer forceps- used to add supplies to sterile field.

  16. Intro to Advanced Airway Management • Advanced airways treat hypoxemia. • Advanced health care providers, nurses, and RCP's manage airways and ventilation devices. • PCT's need to identify the airways and ventilation devices and understand basic care. • PCT's need to identify a patient who is in distress.

  17. Oropharyngeal Airway • Curved plastic device inserted in mouth to pharynx. • Prevents tongue from obstructing airway. • Keeps airway open in unconscious patients. • PCT Care: Standard Precautions!, do not stop pt. From pulling out,Check respirations, keep airway open!

  18. Oropharyngeal Airway

  19. Nasopharyngeal Airway • Soft rubber device inserted through nostril. • May be used in responsive patients. • Used for those with recent oral surgery, loose teeth, mouth trauma, and those in need of frequent suctioning. • Contraindicated for those with anticoagulant meds, nasal deformities, bleeding disorders, or sepsis.

  20. Endotracheal Intubation • Complete airway control! • Passed through mouth or nose to patient's lungs. • Used for ventilation and suctioning. • Used in surgery and CPR situations. • Only nurse, RCP, or physician can care for ET tube.

  21. ET Tube

  22. Endotracheal Intubation • Care for pt. With ET Tube: -Patient can't sleep. -Being mechanically ventilated. • Ventilator-mechanical device that forces air into the patient's lungs. • Pt may be restrained--> total nursing care i.e. turning, repositioning, restraint care. • Standard precautions & aseptic technique! • Bag-Valve Mask- manual ventilation for pt.

  23. BVM

  24. Suction • Used to remove fluid, food, and secretions from pt.'s nose, mouth, and airway to reduce risk of aspiration. • Can use a flexible plastic suction catheter, or a rigid plastic suction (Yankauer catheter)(For Oral). • Sterile procedure done by the nurse, RCP, or advanced provider.
