Al). This includes the increase in dexterity, the restore of proper hand-eye coordination, and improvement of visualization (Meyers et al.). In Cameron Scott’s article from the Healthline News, “Is da Vinci Robotic Surgery a Revolution or a Ripoff?,” he states that robotic devices including the da Vinci surgical device succeeds well in urology and the removal of prostate. Prostate removal is extremely difficult for open surgery practice, however the da Vinci made is easier with about 90 percent of these kinds of surgeries are now done robotically (Scott). Some evidence even suggest that with robotics used in prostatectomy, there is less blood loss, faster recovery, and fewer internal scarring (Scott.). There are many other examples from hospitals and manufactures that support the uses of robotic surgery and its benefits. However, even though these new technologies of robotic devices are supposedly be helping patients and making surgeries less invasive, they are still many concerns of how they should be properly regulated.

A catheter is used in an event of an individual that has either had trauma or surgery and as a result has temporary urinary retention (Patton & Thibodeau, 2013)

It should be noted that during almost all violent outburst Mr. Beaird has been diagnosed with a UTI. He had the catheter removed and now wears a urine bag on his leg connected directly to his bladder. Removing the catheter has helped with number of UTI Mr. Beaird experiences. However, the bag must be emptied and cleaned multiply times throughout the day and Mr. Beaird is not physically able to assist in this daily

Your blood pressure, heart rate, breathing rate, and blood oxygen level will be monitored until the medicines you were given have worn off.

Clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) is a procedure to remove urine from the bladder by placing a small, flexible tube (catheter) into the bladder though the urethra. The urethra is a tube in the body that carries urine from the bladder out of the body.

You will receive calming medicines (sedatives), especially if sedatives are given to put you in a semi-conscious state of relaxation (deep sedation). This is because the amount of sedative needed to produce this state can be hard to predict, and too much of a sedative can produce general anesthesia.

The rectum will be moved and then pulled down to the new opening on the bottom.

Catheters are tubes that are used to drain fluids from the body. They are often employed in removing the fluid from the urinary bladder and therefore, are an important element in urology care. It is important to understand their importance and correct use, if you are looking to take care of a patient. It used in a variety of environments.

Numbing medicine injected directly into your wrist area (local anesthesia). You may also get medication through an intravenous line (IV) to make you sleepy and relaxed (sedation).

When visiting with your urologist they will probably schedule you for an inpatient or outpatient procedure to do a cystoscopy. For this exam, a urologist will place a cystoscope, which is a slender tube with a light and lens through the opening of the urethra and moves it into the bladder. Sterile salt water is then injected through the scope to expand the bladder and allow the doctor to look at the inner lining of the bladder. Usually, the first cystoscopy will be done in the office and if another one is needed it will be done in the hospital. If an abnormal growth is found it will be biopsied. A thin

• Rib resection. This is the removal of a small rib bone near the thoracic outlet.

He explained that the night before the procedure I would be expected to consume a colon cleansing agent. It would assure that he could get an intimate view of my innards. On that day he would insert a tube up my butt—a tube with a camera on the end. With it he would be able to take pictures of any proliferating polyps.

Your health care provider will inject a small amount of radioactive tracer through the tube.

• You may have small, flexible tube (catheter) draining urine from your bladder into a bag outside of your body. The catheter will be removed as soon as possible.

Have you ever had a colonoscopy or endoscopy – where they take a camera and look through your mouth down into your stomach; or a camera that goes in your rectum that looks through your bowel and intestines?
