Thank you for your videos i am counting on your videos because I am a Caregiver in the Philippines
Thanks for watching!
your videos are super informative!
Glad you think so and thanks for watching!
Great job explaining
Thank you for your feedback!
Very informative. I was ready to remove my wife’s in the hospital but she wouldn’t let me 😢
What is missing and i would like to know is. What to expect after the removal? How long before i start peein normally. Is it normal to feel like the bladdder is not completely empty. Should I drink alot of water or as little as possible? Why does it hurt after i pee.
Great questions. The urethra and bladder will be a little sore after catheter removal. There may be some discomfort with urination, depending on how long the catheter was in place. You may also experience some bladder spasm. All of this is expected but should resolve after a few days. It is best to stay hydrated to flush out any sediment and to get the bladder back to functioning normally, unless contraindicated by any other medical conditions. These are all general recommendations; for specific questions about your own situation, please consult your healthcare provider.
Thanks for watching!
Hospitals need standards instead of a bunch of nurses and doctors who all say something slightly different it’s horrible how nobody is ever on the same page in hospitals.
Great point. Each hospital has their own policies and procedures on how to perform certain skills.
@@NursingSchoolExplained not in my many many experiences they are all over the place don’t know who said what and have different ways of doing things and information. Most here that are nurses and such are looking for a check you can tell when they gotta clean up or do certain things and hear them talking about it later to other staff and being rude you pretty much know who is there for a check and who actually cares for there patients. Not many care
How often does the indwelling catheter need to be changed out and a new one put in?
Hi Marc, great question. The length of time depends on the patients' individual situation and on the reason for the catheter and needs to be determined by their provider. From my experience, patients with long-term catheters typically get it changed every 30 days or sooner if the need arises.
Thanks for watching!
@@NursingSchoolExplained One more question, please. Does changing the catheter out and a new one installed require revisiting a urologist or can it be done safely by a home visit from a nurse? Thanks.
@@marcmoshman7823 anyone who is licensed to do so can change a catheter with a doctor's order.
u the bomb
Thank you! 😃
🎉
Or am easier way is just cut the port and water will flow out
That is an option, however, it does not allow you to check the volume that the balloon was inflated with and could harm the patient if deflated incompletely. Catheter sizes and balloons come in different sizes and the balloon may contain as little as 5 ml or as much as 30 ml.
Oh wow ok thanks so much! @@NursingSchoolExplained
