Rectal Prolapse

A prolapsed umbilical cord can be a life-threatening situation for the baby. The compression of the cord causes oxygen deprivation which can cause death of the fetus. It often occurs when the membranes rupture during delivery. A few emergent interventions that the nurse should take include administering oxygen via nasal cannula, call for help and prepare the mom for an emergency cesarean section. The nurse may also insert a sterile glove inside the vagina to relieve pressure on the umbilical cord and help restore blood flow to the fetus. Possible complications that the mother may experience include birth canal trauma if forceps are used rapidly during vaginal birth and blood loss or infection during a cesarean birth. Possible complications

The name for these erosions is aphthous ulcers. These erosions, after a while, start to deepen and grow in diameter. Once they reach a certain size, they can be referred to as ulcers. These ulcers can cause scarring and they can also cause the bowel to become stiff and lose its elasticity. As Crohn’s worsens, the bowel becomes obstructed once the passageways narrow enough. This obstruction can cause a buildup of food that is still being digested, fluid and gas that comes from the stomach. This obstruction will then prevent all of those products from entering into the colon. This will cause severe abdominal cramps, nausea, vomiting, and even abdominal distention. If the ulcers located in the walls of the bowel become large or extreme enough, holes can form in the walls of the bowel. Once those holes are formed in the bowel, the bacteria normal to the bowel can then pass through those holes and spread to nearby organs and into the abdominal cavity causing what are called fistulas. These fistulas are like a channel/tunnel that is formed between the ulcer and the adjacent organ. Then when a fistula is created between the affected intestine and the bladder, it is called an enteric-vesicular fistula which can lead to UTI’s and feces being presented during urination. Next, when the fistula is formed between the intestine and skin, it is called an enteric-cutaneous fistula. What this fistula, pus and mucous exit the body through a painful opening found in the skin of the

When pockets develop in the wall of the colon, this is called diverticulosis. The pockets that form are called diverticula; the pockets pick up fecal matter as the body’s waste is propelled through the colon.

It is also caused by your slowed digestion and the pressure your uterus places on your rectum.

Have you undergone surgery recently? Have there been complications since? There are attorneys that you can call to help you identify your rights no matter what form of documents you signed. You are entitled to file a lawsuit that will compensate you for additional medical bills you may have had to pay to fix your issues caused by the mesh. Pain and suffering is not something that you have to just "deal with" when you can hire a lawyer to file a lawsuit and take care of it for you.

This week in my clinic I learned about what to check for when looking at a fecal sample under the microscope. After being given the sample, I put together a fecal exam for a direct smear and a fecal floatation. My mentor then showed me how to work the microscope and what to look for in a sample through an example chart. She then made me look at the sample and tell her what I saw. With this particular patient I was able to see Roundworms/Hookworms eggs on the fecal exam. Roundworm eggs are in a round shape with a lighter outer membrane whereas Hookworm eggs are oval with cluster of round eggs in the middle. This was an exciting moment for me due to the fact that I have never had the chance to try and search for fecal worms on my own. Most of the time if one of the nurses saw something

“Relapse is a blended definition of relapse is a breakdown or setback in a person's attempt to change or modify a target behavior following an initial setback, a return to the previous problematic behavior, and the continuous return to substance use or to the dysfunctional patterns of compulsive behavior” (PCN-100 Lecture 5, 2016). Next, a lapse in an individual differs from a relapse, yet can be the focal point or beginning as a one-time use after a capsule time of sobriety, which can lead to a full relapse in the individual.

Straining frequently while passing stool can bring about piece of the rectum — the end of the large intestine — to project outside the anus (rectal prolapse). At the point where this happens in children, it might be an indication of cystic fibrosis.

• Proctosigmoidoscopy. This test allows your health care provider to look inside the rectum for signs of disease or other problems that could cause this condition.

Most often this disorder begins in the teen years all the way to the twenties. A straining effort is necessary to expel stools. These stools are not frequent and are hard in nature. The abdomen becomes distended or bloated with movement of

There was a time I use to consider the colon as a passage for waste products. However, after reading a couple of health related articles, I found that the colon plays many roles in the body, and not just as a passage for waste products. Unfortunately, it is one of the less recognized organs in the body.

This activity puts “stress” on the body and the urethral sphincter and or pelvic floor muscles cannot hold urine within the bladder. Overactive bladder is when the one feels the want to take a restroom break even though the bladder is not full. This is caused by muscles of the bladder send signals to the brain that it is full and needs to be emptied. When both SUI or OAB occur together it is called mixed incontinence and can prove to be tough to handle. Overflow incontinence is seen more so in men, although it can affect women, and is when the bladder does not ever fully empty. The bladder is unable to empty due to a blockage that closes the urethra. Functional incontinence occurs when a person has some sort of ailment that affects their urinary tract. For example, one may have a lack of awareness to use the restroom because their medication impedes their thinking processes. Reflex incontinence is a consequence of neurological damage. This nerve damage impedes the ability of the bladder to send signals to the brain. The bladder contracts and as a result urine trickles. (Publishing)

I will still continue the same process in manging this case with adding several more components during the screening process. Since the trunk instability could affect the lower limb, I woulde investigate about the lumbo-pelvic stability to see if thre is any instablity or weaknes in those area. Additionally, I would add in this process a screnning for the central sensitisation. Sence the injury hapend long time ago, the soft tissu that injuried should be healed. However the brain may still think the injury still there, thus produce pain bilaterally. I would screen for the stress when the injury occured and if there are any stress in the family as well as if there are any history of other injury, which indicat central sensitisation. Moreover,

Piles often occur on them in old age. Or can also occur in those who work too hard, or sit too long in the same place. But not infrequently also ambeien occur in pregnant women.

Colorectal cancer mainly starts at colon or the rectum. They are common in most of the way like features, but they have different treatment. What is the different between colon cancer and rectal cancer? Colon cancer happens first four to five feet of the large intestine and rectal cancer happens in the last few inches of the large intestine where it is connected to anus. (cancercenter.com)
