"Pediatric surgery has such a variety of diagnoses and surgical interventions. To be able to care for children in the perioperative time frame can be complex and gratifying at the same time."

Morgan Mocniak, Pediatric Nurse Practitioner, General Surgery, Nationwide Children's Hospital - Toledo

[venovenous]

One day has passed and my manager hasn't responded to my email even though I think she was in office today. Well. Was waiting for her blessing but I reached out to the perioperative nursing recruiter asking to shadow. I feel like my current management would be fine with me relocating if they feel it's good for me (it is) but she's probably waiting to respond because she wants to get the educators and everyone on board and have an in person meeting with me to try and see if I can stick it out and stay where I'm at now, since I complete a five month long critical care orientation this week. I started thinking about this conversation, which led to me thinking about my grandfather, which led to me tearing up from the combined stress of today's shift and everything else that's going on. I can visibly tell I've lost weight from the stress and I feel so awful. I don't think I can sustain this and I have no choice but to leave my current position for one with way less stress. Buh bye

[impossiblepluto]

OH ME, ME! Try me!! Research topic! What are you presenting on?! I lowered my expectations of ever doing that, even though I’m in DNP school and am gonna do a DNP project that I could potentially present at a conference… I’ve been to one conference (American society of blood and marrow transplant) in 2021 - so entirely virtual 😭😭 One day I’ll go to one in person 🤪

I'm presenting on the risk factors for and prevention of corneal abrasions in the perioperative setting. Honestly, I was coerced into submitting an abstract and thought there was no way it would ever be selected. Jokes on me. I am having massive amounts of imposter syndrome about it.

A few years ago, when I first started with the surgery center, I had a few patients who came back with corneal abrasions post op, and those seemed to be more painful than their surgeries. So this project has spanned a few years now. Superstition makes me hesitate to mention this aloud but we haven't had any type of eye injuries since implementing the interventions over a year ago! The biggest surprise, but also made sense once I thought about it, the correlation between bair huggers and other warming devices and increased ocular dryness and irritation.

You are going to have so many opportunities to present at conferences and publish papers, especially as you continue and achieve your DNP! I'm about to hit up your askbox to give you the chance to brag on your project

I went to one in person conference like 10 years ago now. Was supposed to go to one in 2020 but that was cancelled. I haven't been to a virtual conference. I feel like that would be tough. Every time I have a virtual meeting or something I am always so grateful I wasn't in nursing school in the midst of 2020 and needing to do everything online

However don't worry she is a nurse..she only wants to help…

Bio: Young lady talented in skills of nursing and poison. She is dual working her way to become a surgeon or some funky mad doctor witch who knows?! She is quite silly seeming on the surface or maybe can sense what lurks underneath that smile of hers.

[dausy]

quick 5 min mock up using a mouse but lol..

I made a pattern and ordered some fabric that hopefully turns out ok but I want a new custom scrub cap.

periop staff should recognize versed/fentanyl I think.

I've done every stage of surgery in my past 12 years as a nurse except circulating and I'm just now getting trained in minor procedures. I'm honestly not sure if I'm made for the actual OR room. Its fine, I don't hate it but the lead is literally killing my back. My shoulders and upper back hurt so bad. I'm also headache prone anyway so its giving me a headache. It probably doesn't help that the lead is just too big for me, maybe a fitted led would help but jeez, my back. Send me back to pre-op.

Surgical Instrument Tracking: Revolutionizing Modern Surgery The Indispensable Role of Minimally Invasive Techniques

The Importance of Instrument Tracking in Surgery Surgery is an intricate and complex medical procedure that requires precision from medical professionals. From the first incision to the final stitch, countless surgical instruments are used inside the sterile operating field. With so many tools being passed between surgeons and nurses, it’s easy for an instrument to get misplaced or left inside the patient unintentionally. This presents serious risks to patient health and safety. To mitigate these risks, hospitals have increasingly adopted surgical instrument tracking systems. Surgical sponges and other small items left inside patients after surgery, known as retained surgical items or “gossips”, remain a serious problem. Studies show retained items occur in about 1 in every 5,500 to 18,000 surgeries performed. While rare, when they do happen the consequences can be life-threatening or disfiguring for the patient. Not only that, but unintentionally retained items also expose hospitals to legal liability and malpractice claims amounting to millions of dollars each year. Comprehensive surgical instrument tracking helps prevent such incidents from occurring in the first place. How Instrument Tracking Systems Work Modern Surgical Instrument Tracking systems use advanced radio-frequency identification (RFID) or barcode scanning technology to account for each instrument used during a procedure. Small RFID or barcode tags are attached to individual instruments. As instruments are brought into and out of the operating room, they are scanned into a dedicated tracking computer or software system. Before closing the surgical incision, staff perform a final instrument and sponge count using the tracking system. Any discrepancies between what was scanned into the room versus what is accounted for after surgery trigger an alert. This final count helps provide a clear audit trail confirming all items were properly removed from the patient’s body before stitching up the incision. The Benefits of Instrument Tracking Implementing a comprehensive instrument tracking solution yields several important benefits for hospitals: Patient Safety - As mentioned, accurate accounting for all items used during surgery helps prevent life-threatening retained surgical items. Instrument tracking adds an extra layer of safety for patients. Reduced Risk of Liability - Clearly documenting the use and removal of all items helps protect hospitals legally if questions ever arise about whether something was unintentionally left inside a patient. Increased Revenue - Fewer medical malpractice lawsuits related to retained items means less payouts and legal expenses for hospitals over time. Less time is also spent managing liability issues. Process Efficiencies - Automatic identification and counting of instruments streamlines perioperative workflows. Less time is spent manually counting items, searching for missing objects, or filling out paperwork. Staff can instead focus on direct patient care tasks. Asset Management - Tracking technologies provide real-time visibility into instrument locations and usage. This information helps with equipment maintenance planning, usage reports, and inventory management across the hospital system. Overall, a well-designed surgical instrument solution should save hospitals money in the long run through reduced risk and greater process efficiencies, while more importantly enhancing patient care and safety. When implemented and utilized comprehensively, these systems have been shown in studies to virtually eliminate unintended retained surgical items.
