Abstract

Several good combinations of photographic equipment are available today for recording arthroscopies. Some of them are so simple to use that everyone can obtain good still pictures through the arthroscope. It is usually preferable to enlarge the arthroscopic pictures in order to get better slides for presentations during lectures and at scientific meetings. Movie film and video tape offer a more dynamic recording but are both fairly expensive. The use of video tape can cause problems during presentations to larger audiences. Video tape, however, can be transferred to 16 mm. movie film, which is the international standard in the teaching world. Color TV has three different standards in different parts of the world and there are at least four different video casette systems available today.

[Retained foreign bodies from the view of the OR nurse].

Patient safety in the operating room is of high priority for the surgical team and for all healthcare workers involved. Counting procedures contribute to minimizing potential risks for the patients, especially in preventing them from leaving the operating room with retained, unintended foreign bodies. A total of 64% of operating room nurses involved in a survey are reported as having been involved in a surgical procedure in which the correct count prevented foreign bodies from being left in the patient. In addition, the strengths and potential weak points of the counting procedures could be identified. The results of the survey and drafts for a standard counting control as well as procedural recommendations are presented for discussion. A recommendation can be provided for each surgical department in order to check their own counting methods for avoiding potential risks.
