Hi guys, I came across this on the internet and thought it might be useful to have a few more scenarios, they aren't full of detail but might give a few more opportunities to practice patient scenarios.

__**URINARY CATHETERS - PRETESTING BALLOONS?**__ Hey everyone, email playing funnybuggers so added to the wiki for you! EmmaBxxxx

Hi Chris! I remember in our skills session looking at the urinary catheters we were told that we should pre-test the balloon for defects but since seeing catheterisation being carried out I've found this isn't the usual practice. I've checked out the Marsden Manual and it doesn't state to pre-test the balloons. There has been debate on whether pre-testing is beneficial or not with some advisories showing manufacturer's testing is sufficient enough. Pre-testing silicone balloons apparently is not recommended as this can cause creases resulting in further trauma to the urethra during insertion (silicone catheters used in Community settings as long term). I have spoken with the DNs here and they haven't heard of pre-testing the balloon and advised reps who come to show them brands of catheters do not say to do this. I can't remember who had taught us in this session but I wondered if this advice could be circulated perhaps?

__**POSTER PRESENTATION**__ Ok so here is my final version poster (apologies for the amount of words but its still large font when up to size). I have also compiled all our research into one mammoth reference document. Not 100% is in there and its a bit of a mish mash but thought it worth consolidating stuff. Updated ref doc from Rachel B's comments:

Let me know what you think, I can edit over the weekend if need be....


 * Emma -** Nurse's role as patient educators/advocates[[file:Emma - Nursing Evolution - patient educators_advocates.odt]]
 * Helen -** summary + notes on KSF: [[file:KSF.doc]]
 * Sarah de G -** template with space for text [[file:Sarah_Poster_2.pub]]
 * Chloe -** Summary of patient choice [[file:Summary of patient choice.docx]]
 * Sarah de G** summary on telecare/telehealth [[file:telecare telehealth.docx]]
 * Sarah A -**here's my expert paient stuff...i hope it all makes sense, I feel a little confused so please let me know if I have totally missed the point
 * Rachel B -** Here's my summary - please feel free to edit and change it as you want! [[file:Sick role summary.docx]]
 * Sarah de G -** everyone: regardless of what our poster template looks like we all need to prepare an executive summary on each of our sections - one page MAX which we will either submit along with poster or we will put this informaiton into that horrible template. Please can we all do our summaries BY TOMORROW and post them on the wiki? Izi is going to present our information by way of operatic **performance.[[file:28.02.12.pub]]**
 * Sarah de G -** I have e-mailed Chris to check that it's OK to present with such a simple poster and we will prepare separate notes pages to submit to the rest of the cohort. if it's not OK i'll let y'all know. if not we will adapt the original template and cram it full of really small text...
 * Chloe -** I'm happy with the way the poster looks, its eye - catching and not too crammed which will allow us to talk about our individual points
 * Sarah de G -** proposed format for poster. let me know what you think re text on slide. have only included main white papers.. first draft! i have poster in MS publisher format so if you want to play i'll post that file on instead.

Hey - here are some diabetes notes I made to add to the collection! Rachel B xx
 * __CONFLICT RESOLUTION THEORY powerpoint presentation__**

__**Chloe: DIABETES Notes**__ Hi guys, I've added my Endocrine System and Diabetes Notes to the page. They are in the Pages. It is best to look at the Endocrine Notes first, then Diabetes A and P, Diabetes Notes and finally Diabetes Long Term Complications. Sorry it's so long xx

Thanks Chloe! I'm also adding the Diabetes training slides I had when I was in IOW :) EmmaBxxxx

__**Izi: Notes on NURSING MODELS**__ It's taken me ages but here finally are my (very brief) notes on what different nursing models involve. Some are a bit odd so I hope it makes sense!



Hi guys. Kate asked me for my notes on PUs - I've attached my general notes (completely plagiarised be warned) and my question write up (not plagiarised) which wasn't amazing (60%) but it outlines general stuff. Feel free to read and snigger.

Also attached is notes on **Hypokalaemia**. Enjoy!
