SUCTIONING SERIES (2 Programs)
This update of Medcom's classic suctioning course provides healthcare professionals with demonstrations of the fundamentals of airway suctioning. Now in a more convenient two-part format, this series demonstrates current practices and techniques to provide nurses with an understanding of nasotracheal, oropharyngeal and both open and closed in-line endotracheal suctioning, and the indications for the use of each.
SUCTIONING NASOTRACHEAL SUCTIONING AND MONITORING COMPLICATIONS
This program describes the anatomy of the airway, demonstrates methods designed to mobilize respiratory secretions, demonstrates nasotracheal suctioning techniques used to remove accumulated secretions, and describes potential complications to monitor.
After completion, the learner should be able to:
*List the physiological effects of accumulated respiratory secretions.
*Describe the technique for nasotracheal suctioning and indications for its use.
*Identify assessment findings used to establish the need for suctioning.
*Name potential complications of the suctioning procedures.
SUCTIONING OROPHARYNGEAL AND ENDOTRACHEAL TECHNIQUES
This program describes the anatomy of the airway, demonstrates oropharyngeal suctioning techniques, and both open and closed in-line endotracheal suctioning techniques used to remove accumulated secretions.
After completion, the learner should be able to:
*List the physiological effects of accumulated respiratory secretions.
*Describe the technique for nasotracheal suctioning and indications for its use.
*Identify assessment findings used to establish the need for suctioning.
*Name potential complications of the suctioning procedures.
EACH PROGRAM IS 22 MINUTES AND AVAILABLE SEPARATELY AND WITH CLOSED CAPTIONING
