Course Overview:The "An Understanding of Oropharyngeal Suctioning" course is designed to provide healthcare professionals with comprehensive knowledge and practical skills required for safe and effective oropharyngeal suctioning. Oropharyngeal suctioning is a critical procedure used to clear secretions and maintain airway patency in patients who are unable to effectively clear their own airways. This course offers in-depth exploration of the techniques, equipment, and considerations involved in oropharyngeal suctioning. Course Duration: 1/2 day (3 hours) Course Content:By the end of this course, participants will be able to:1. Outline the indications and contraindications of suctioning2. List the relevant anatomy and physiology3. Explain the risks and benefits of suctioning4. Describe the checks, safeguards and precautions relevant to the procedure and equipment5. Outline monitoring of the individual6. Explain the importance of following the individual’s health care plan and prescription7. Practice suctioning in simulation 8. Describe the importance of hand-over, communication and record keeping Course Objectives:1. Recognise the importance of oropharyngeal suctioning: Understand the significance of maintaining a patent airway through proper oropharyngeal suctioning techniques, which is crucial for patients who are unable to clear their secretions effectively.2. Learn about indications and contraindications: Familiarize yourself with the situations in which oropharyngeal suctioning is necessary, as well as cases where it might be contraindicated.3. Acquire skills in oropharyngeal suctioning: Develop hands-on skills in safely and effectively performing oropharyngeal suctioning using appropriate equipment, techniques, and infection control measures.4. Understand patient assessment and preparation: Learn techniques for assessing patients who require oropharyngeal suctioning, identifying signs of airway obstruction, and preparing them for the procedure.5. Address infection control measures: Understand the importance of adhering to infection prevention protocols during suctioning procedures to prevent the spread of pathogens and ensure patient safety.6. Develop communication skills: Learn effective communication techniques to educate patients, caregivers, and family members about the oropharyngeal suctioning procedure, its purpose, and potential complications.7. Address potential complications: Recognize possible complications related to oropharyngeal suctioning, such as trauma, hypoxia, and aspiration, and learn strategies to prevent and manage these issues.8. Ethical considerations and patient-centered care: Explore ethical issues related to patient autonomy, informed consent, and providing care with dignity, respect, and empathy. Assessment and Certification:Participants will undergo a practical skills assessment and a written examination to evaluate their understanding of the course content. Successful completion will lead to a certification of achievement in "An Understanding of Oropharyngeal Suctioning."Note: This course overview is a general guideline and can be customised to suit specific local requirements and preferences, therefore, we recommend that you contact us to discuss your requirements prior to making a booking.
