Abstract:

Objectives: We examined the washing evaluation method of the flusher disinfector installed in the medical site by visual evaluation using an ISO test soil and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) measurement. Methods: The test soil shown in ISO15883-5 was applied to the bedpan using 2 methods (N = 10) and was then visually evaluated using a 4-step scale. The ATP value on the surface of the bedpan corresponding to each scale was measured, and the correlation with the visual scale was confirmed. In addition, a visual evaluation was performed using a different flusher disinfector and bedpan (N = 3). Resu

Applications include its use to pasteurize a broad range of foods and beverages, the control of microbial contamination of blood products, and treatment of bone tissue transplants and vaccines. In the pharmaceutical industry, water heated to 65°C to 80°C is used to sanitize high-purity water systems. In healthcare, it has been employed for decades to disinfect patient care items ranging from bedpans to anesthesia equipment. There is a goo

BACKGROUND: Coronary precautions were common when coronary care units were instituted in the 1960s. However, research has failed to provide evidence of the validity of most of these restrictions. Only the avoidance of the Valsalva maneuver is clearly indicated as a universal precaution in patients who have experienced acute myocardial infarction. OBJECTIVES: To determine if nurses continue to restrict iced and hot fluids, caffeine, rectal temperature measurement, and vigorous back rubs, and to feed and mandate bedrest for acute myocardial infarction patients.

Abstract:

Introduction Since its creation in the 18th century, bedpan has remained more or less the same. Its unique material composition varies from one model to another, but its shape remains relatively similar. The environment is one of the four pillars of the nursing paradigm. It is therefore essential to question this device in the nursing discipline. Aim To assess perceived patient comfort and ease of bedpan handling by nurses and their assistants.
