Thanks for responding. I've tried the equipment company and they weren't to helpful. Itried AORN policies and procedures but found little info. I'll just keep hunting. Maybe a clinical educator will reply with some input. Thanks again. :rolleyes:

Thanks for responding. The system we are researching just uses a pump system and either 1L or 3L bags. They tell me they don't do official recording just a note pad during the procedure then they pitch it. I would like to know if institutions really function like that. With all of the charting and recording we have to do, it seems like the perioperative area is a little lax. Anyway thanks for your help. DRSRN1948

I have a question, how do you record the fluid used as irrigant during hysteroscopy procedures? Do your facilities have standardized flow sheets to keep up with the irrigant I/O and does it go into the patient's record? I am doing some legal nurse consultant work and have not seen any information on how nurses keep these records. I'm not trying to hurt any nurses, just help protect them. Thanks for any information.
