Operation Room Finale

My OR experience was so far the best I've had in my nursing education. that's why i'm pretty sad because tonight was our last duty in the OR. oh well... my regret: when i scrubbed in for a minor surgery, the only thing i did was gave a sponge to a doctor... that's it! too bad, i was quite excited for it (but anxious at the same time). major surgery: i only retracted the bladder retractor.... sighs... i wish i had the experience of assisting in actual, giving out instrument. anyway, well be having our duties back in OR nxt school year.

it was my 1st time to observe a Uterine hysterectomy procedure. the uterus and cervix was actually out if the body! it's really tiny! you'd think how can a baby fit in such a small space.



the minor procedure was an internal bleeding in the knee. the patient seemed to be in pain inspite of the general anesthesia. the doctor applied a cylindrical mold after the procedure.

after the surgeries, we had our return demonstration for scrubbing, gowning and gloving. mr. tan was our CI. he's a fun teacher. i really apprecieate that he handled our class. ms. aala was the greatest. :)

after that, well, we all played pinoy henyo. haha. killed time. had fun.... our new funny word... "beyjtabols".... hahahaah!!!!!
