A

Transurethral resection (TURP for bladder) or fulguration (electricity to kill unhealthy cells)
Followed by bacille Calmette–Guérin (BCG) treatment
Cystectomy (remove bladder)
Urinary diversion

28
Q

how often to monitor urine output after surgery?

A

every hour

29
Q

nursing care after surgery

A

stoma and skin care, test urine, encourage fluids, education about ostomy

30
Q

most ostomies involve

A

bladder and urethra

31
Q

continent diversion (the bowel is a continent)

A

using part of bowels to create a bladder

32
Q

continent

A

can manage flow of urine without external devices

33
Q

ileal conduit (Ileana drains bc shes not a contintent)

A

Ileal conduit – used after bladder removal where the ureters are re-routed and drain freely into part of the ileum. Needs an external bag. non-continent, can be perm or temp. most common.

34
Q

main nursing diagnosis for pre-op

A

imbalanced nutrition

35
Q

post-op ostomy - nursing diagnosis

A

risk for impaired skin integrity, acute pain, disturbed body image, sexual dysfunction.

36
Q

won’t be tested on

A

diversions

37
Q

urinary stoma

A

more a pale pink, and they are smaller. pouch with a spout at the end, not a bag.

38
Q

calculi -urine test - tests for what? (Cuspv Calculi test)

A

24-hour urine for calcium, uric acid, sodium, pH, volume

39
Q

Indiana pouch (Indiana is a continent)

A

a continent urinary diversion that is drained by catheterization

40
Q

Mitrofanoff (Mitro is also a continent)

A

Mitrofanoff continent urinary diversion

41
Q

Orthotopic Neobladder (Neo is valsalva)

A

– replaces the old bladder with a new one constructed form bowel
Voiding is accomplished by the Valsalva maneuver
Used for those who can maintain their sphincter muscle
Scheduled voiding
Pelvic floor exercises

42
Q

End stoma

A

End stoma –is formed when the proximal end of the small intestines or colon is used to make the storage pouch for the urinary diversion

43
Q

Ureterostomy

A

Ureterostomy – involves both ureters being brought through the abdominal wall. There may be two small stomas.

44
Q

stoma characteristics

A

Pale pink in color is appropriate for a urinary stoma
Moist and glossy
Protrude about 2.5 cm above skin level
Might appear edematous post op; older stoma may have more texture, grooves and folds

no more than 3 times/week

46
Q

race with highest incident of kidney stones

A

white males

47
Q

stones are made of what? 3 things

A

increased concentrations of calcium oxalate, calcium phosphate & uric acid = supersaturation

48
Q

Factors that increase stone formation depends on stone type (struv is an alchy)

A

Decreased calcium metabolism- anything that slows urine drainage-infection, urinary stasis, immobility
Hypercalcemia & hypercalciuria
Uric Acid stone – assess for gouT
Struvite stones – have they had a lot of UTIs, alkaline environment, bacteria

49
Q

edema from stone is from

A

3rd spacing, infection, and obstruction

50
Q

alpha adrenergics for stones

A

reduce ureteral spasm, increase pressure proximal to the stone, and relax the ureter in the region of and distal to the stone.

51

if stone is larger than 10 mm, need to

have surgery

A

2 weeks to 4 months

Q

side effects of BPH meds

A

wave passes through urethra, heats inside of prostate and causes shrinkage
