A nasogastric tubes skills demonstration developed by the Learning Resource Center for NURS 111 students at the Frances Payne Bolton School of Nursing in Cleveland, Ohio.
it depends of the type of the tube. The temporary ones ( PVC made ) are good for 3 days but other kind of tubes can be inserted and kept in place for 1 month ( silicone). Usually you have to remove and insert a new one in the other nostril every week to limitate skin irritation.
Why do all nursing instructors get to have awesome nails yet we aren't even allowed polish? Then again, idk why i'm complaining about nail lenght. Before every test i chew mine off anyway :(
I appreciate all of the videos of yours I have viewed. My only concern with this video is it inaccurately gives the impression nails of that length is ok, but..... we know those are bacteria carrying length nails and are not appropriate for procedures such as this.
client here, client there... i do not like that. Makes medicine seem like a business. What´s wrong about calling them patients? Anyway, great tutorial. Thanks!
Advice- 1. Use sterile gloves, not clean gloves. 2. Do not touch the tube before having sterile gloves on! 3. Aim it towards the ear not the middle of the face! Ugh, I will stop there.
ok na tana except for the fact that the one performing the procedure has long beautiful nails''' gush, quite distracting, It makes me think, of the fact that nurses should have short plain nails'for long nails could harbor microbes'''' if she would be wearing gloves, either clean or sterile it would only be soiled'''' sorry for this anyway, just a thought
