Development and application of intraoperative specimen collector for urinary endoscopy / 中华护理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To solve the problems of flushing fluid overflow pollution in urinary endoscopy surgery and specimen run-off in flushing fluid.Methods An intraoperative specimen collector was designed and developed.Totally 212 patients were enrolled and divided into the experimental group (n=106) and the control group (n=106).Effects of application were evaluated by comparing contamination rate due to flushing fluid leakage,degree of patient comfort and degree of nursing satisfaction.Results Contamination rate due to flushing fluid leakage in the experimental group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P＜0.05).Degree of patient comfort and degree of nursing satisfaction in the experimental group were significantly better than those in the control group (P＜0.05).Conclusion The application of intraoperative specimen collector in urinary endoscopy surgery can effectively reduce pollution of staff and environment in operating room,improve retention rate of surgical specimen,increase patient comfort and satisfaction,and guarantee the success of the surgery.
