In response to the reported mechanism of injury, the ED team sequestered him in a secluded area away from the rest of the patients. The team believed that this was highly suspicious of a bio-terrorism event.

His hands were placed in a natural position with the fingers wrapped around gauze rolls and touching his lateral thighs. The new anesthesia provider, who had never seen a robotic prostatectomy, was concerned about anesthesia implications when the patient would be repositioned into extreme Trendelenburg for the dissection and anastomosis. The circulating nurse assured her that they would implement protective measures and work together to ensure the best patient outcome. Select all of the potentially harmful effects of extreme 45-degree Trendelenburg in a robotic pr - Answer-Respiratory compromise and ventilation resistance Shearing injury to soft tissues .A 325-pound male is scheduled for a 6-hour abdominal surgery.

She will be positioned in left lateral position for her procedure. Based on the perioperative nurse's preoperative assessment, identify three position-related nursing diagnoses for this procedure and four relevant nursing interventions. Select from the options to fill in the blanks. - Answer-Hypothermia; impaired skin integrity; falls; remain at patient's side during induction; use under- and over-body forced air warming blanket; use at least four people to assist with lift and transfer; pad all bony prominences with foam or gel pads. .A minimally invasive video-assisted thyroidectomy (MIVAT) procedure relies on Miccoli instruments added to the standard thyroid or neck dissection setup, a 30-degree endoscope, and an ultrasonic (harmonic) scalpel with scissors to ligate and divide the vessels. An important risk reduction strategy for any minimally invasive procedure would be - Answer-consider and plan for the possibility of conversion to open thyroidectomy .A needletype frequently used in microsurgery is - Answer-cutting taper
