Perioperative nurse training in cardiothoracic surgical robotics.
The exponential growth of OR technology during the past 10 years has placed increased demands on perioperative nurses. Proficiency is required not only in patient care but also in the understanding, operating, and troubleshooting of video systems, computers, and cutting edge medical devices. The formation of a surgical team dedicated to robotically assisted cardiac surgery requires careful sele...
متن کاملPerioperative Nurse Training in Cardiothoracic Surgical Robotics
T hroughout the 1980s, technology enabled a sharp increase in the number of video-assisted endoscopies performed in multiple specialties. As the use of lasers and focused energy devices increased, more demands were placed on perioperative nurses to become technically adept. During the past 10 years, technology has grown exponentially, and the complexity of new devices and their applications has...
متن کاملSimulation in coronary artery anastomosis early in cardiothoracic surgical residency training: the Boot Camp experience.
OBJECTIVE We evaluated focused training in coronary artery anastomosis with a porcine heart model and portable task station. METHODS At "Boot Camp," 33 first-year cardiothoracic surgical residents participated in 4-hour coronary anastomosis sessions (6-7 attending surgeons per group of 8-9 residents). At beginning, midpoint, and session end, anastomosis components were assessed on a 3-point r...
متن کاملMicroporous polysaccharide hemosphere absorbable hemostat use in cardiothoracic surgical procedures
BACKGROUND Topical hemostatic agents are used to reduce bleeding and transfusion need during cardiothoracic surgery. We report our experience with Arista® AH Absorbable Hemostatic Particles (Arista® AH), a novel plant-based microporous polysaccharide hemostatic powder. METHODS Data were retrospectively collected for patients (n = 240) that received cardiothoracic surgery at our institution fr...
متن کاملSurgical treatment of chylothorax caused by cardiothoracic surgery in children.
Four pediatric cases of chylothorax after cardiothoracic surgery, which were managed surgically, are reviewed retrospectively. All patients underwent right thoracotomy and mass ligation of the right thoracic duct without detecting the true site of leakage. Although 1 patient died from heart failure the day after operation, the other 3 recovered quickly without sequelae. Based on our limited exp...
