  1. patient videos

    i was concerned that hospitals and physicians were attempting to somehow videotape a patient's procedure without adequately informing the patient of the possibility this may occur. i felt that it...
  2. patient videos

    i was reading some of the remarks from 2010 post concerning patient modesty in conjunction with surgical procedure. one poster stated that, in her hospital, they tape their trauma surgeries, and...
  3. patient videos

    thank you for including a copy of the consent form used at thr hospital where your surgeries were done. it is certainly short, concise, and very easily understood. my feeling is now that adding the...
  4. patient videos

    i have no experience with the medical ethics which govern teaching hospitals, but from previous posters it seems that practically all procedures are taped to some degree. this is fine with me. as i...
  5. patient videos

    i wanted to comment on the last remarks from weepingangel about me thinking the MD is showing my colonoscopy video to all his friends...... your attempt at humor was in very poor taste and was not...
  6. patient videos

    my one and only hospitalization was in february of 1995. i was admitted for a cardiac catheterization and was told i would stay overnight and be discharged the next day. after arriving at the...
  7. patient videos

    i guess what i am really asking is why the patients are not informed of the videotaping possibility by the surgeon when he/she obtains informed consent for the patient's original procedure? do you not...
  8. patient videos

    i have no fear of these procedure videos ending up on you tube. i do strongly feel, however, that such videotaping and photography are very serious privacy issues for the patient, and as such,...
  9. patient videos

    since my last comments, i have done more research on the internet dealing with patient consent issues on videotaping of patient procedures. i feel that relegating this as an aside on the consent form...
  10. Any other cold hearted nurses out there?

    the following comments are for esme12 and anyone else kind enough to comment on my earlier post. last monday afternoon i had an appointment with my long time primary care physician and asked him if he...
  11. 24/7 Video Cameras in ICU rooms

    my question deals with how each patient is informed that there will be a camera watching them. in almost all instances this is inserted as an aside in the consent form which, when signed by the...
  12. Patient fx hip after family refused alarm

    i am also from the old school and believing in assuming resposibilities for my actions. it is easy to determine from my post there are specific things i cannot tolerate, with any type of restraint...
  13. Patient fx hip after family refused alarm

    how restraining is a bed alarm? i consider myself to be the pickiest, anxious, most restless patient a poor nurse could ever have to endure. i am very severely claustrophobic and, as a result, am...
  14. Any other cold hearted nurses out there?

    i was not aware that this was a vent thread for nurses and i humbly apologize for disrespcting nurses. my only real contact with nurses as a patient occured in 1995 when i underwent cardiac bypass...
  15. Any other cold hearted nurses out there?

    sorry this so late but just had to comment. before you put your freshly polished halo to bed for the night i think you should consider another side of this issue. i suffer from very severe...
  16. patient videos

    again thank you for answering. i, too, would expect all patients to read the entire consent form and voice any objections at that time. i feel assured that if did object then no videotape would be...
  17. patient videos

    sweet_wild_rose------thank you for your answer. i feel that by intending to videotape a patient's procedure without directly informing him is somehow an invasion of his privacy. it seems the physician...
  18. patient videos

    the original thread was started by creinkent on 12-19-06, entitled "patient modesty concerns pertaining to surgery". followup comments referring specifically to videotaping of procedures were by...
  19. patient videos

    does the patient or his family have the right to object to any recording or taping by adding a note on the consent form that he nor the family definitely does not consent? i do not object to the...
  20. questions on versed usage

    i have just read an interesting account on the internet concerning the use of versed, either alone for conscious sedation, or in conjunction with other anasthesias for surgical procedures. the article...
  21. patient consent issues

    while surfing the web, i came upon a full discussion of the dax cowart case. he was severely burned in a gasoline explosion, suffering major burn injuries over most of his body, even his eyes. he...
  22. questions on versed usage

    i did not mean to infer that the drug versed was used as sedation prior to urinary catheterization. in fact, i have been told by emergency room nurses that patients in the ER are not sedated for...
  23. questions on versed usage

    your response was, as were all the responses, very thought provoking. the whole point of my original post was to question how the amnesic properties of this drug were used. i continually asked myself,...
  24. nursing protocol

    i just finished reading on the internet details on a court case, marsingill v. o'malley. some things were mentioned in the discourse that i would like some clarification on. a lady (marsingil) called...
  25. nursing protocol

    it seems quite a bit of the family's argument is based upon the effects of the doctor telling the patient that she most likely would have a nasogastric tube inserted. it was still the patient's choice...
