Has he experienced decreased force of urinary flow, decreased ability to initiate voiding, urgency, frequency, nocturia, dysuria, urinary retention, hematuria? Does the patient report associated problems, such as back pain, flank pain, and lower abdominal or suprapubic discomfort? Has the patient experienced erectile dysfunction or changes in frequency or enjoyment of sexual activity? This information helps determine how soon the patient will be able to return to normal activities after prostatectomy. Preoperative Nursing Diagnoses 251 Anxiety about surgery and its outcome Acute pain related to bladder distention Deficient knowledge about factors related to the disorder and the treatment protocol Postoperative Nursing Diagnoses Acute pain related to the surgical incision, catheter placement, and bladder spasms Deficient knowledge about postoperative care and management Collaborative Problems/Potential Complications Based on the assessment data, the potential complications may include the following: Hemorrhage and shock Infection Deep vein thrombosis Catheter obstruction Sexual dysfunction Planning and Goals The major preoperative goals for the patient may include reduced anxiety and learning about his prostate disorder and the perioperative experience. The major postoperative goals may include maintenance of fluid volume balance, relief of pain and discomfort, ability to perform self-care activities, and absence of complications. Preoperative Nursing Interventions Reducing Anxiety The patient is frequently admitted to the hospital on the morning of surgery. Because contact with the patient may be limited before surgery, the nurse must establish communication with the patient to assess his understanding of the diagnosis and of the planned surgical procedure. The nurse clarifies the nature of the surgery and expected postoperative outcomes. In addition, the nurse familiarizes the patient with the preoperative and postoperative routines and initiates measures to reduce anxiety. Because the patient may be sensitive and embarrassed discussing problems related to the genitalia and sexuality, the nurse provides privacy and establishes a trusting and professional relationship. Guilt feelings often surface if the patient falsely assumes a cause-and-effect relationship between sexual practices and his current problems. Relieving Discomfort If the patient experiences discomfort before surgery, he is prescribed bed rest, analgesic agents are administered, and measures are initiated to relieve anxiety. If he is hospitalized, the nurse monitors his voiding patterns, watches for bladder distention, and assists with catheterization if indicated. An indwelling catheter is inserted if the patient has continuing urinary retention or if laboratory test results indicate azotemia (accumulation of nitrogenous waste products in the blood). The catheter can help decompress the bladder gradually over several days, especially if the patient is elderly and hypertensive and has diminished renal function or urinary retention that has existed for many weeks. For a few days after the bladder begins draining, the blood pressure may fluctuate and renal function may decline. If the patient cannot tolerate a urinary catheter, he is prepared for a cystostomy (see 252 Chapters 44 and 45). Providing Instruction Before surgery, the nurse reviews with the patient the anatomy of the affected structures and their function in relation to the urinary and reproductive systems, using diagrams and other teaching aids if indicated. The nurse explains what will take place as the patient is prepared for diagnostic tests and then for surgery (depending on the type of prostatectomy planned). The nurse also describes the type of incision, which varies with the surgical approach (directly over the bladder, low on the abdomen, or in the perineal area; in the case of a transurethral procedure, no incision will be made), and informs the patient about the likely type of urinary drainage system, the type of anesthesia, and the recovery room procedure.

The tear film is destabilized when the surface tension of the instilled solution is much lower than the surface tension of the lacrimal fluid cialis 5mg low price. The normal osmolality of tears varies from 290 to 310 mOsmkg−1 cheap cialis 5 mg mastercard, which is almost equivalent to that of normal saline solution. Variations in osmotic pressure between 100– 640 mOsmkg−1 appear to be well tolerated by the eye; beyond these values irritation takes place, eliciting reflex tears and reflex blinking. When the eye surface is covered with a hypotonic solution the permeability of the epithelium is increased considerably and water flows into the cornea. The corneal tissues swell, increasing the pressure on the nerves and causing an anesthetizing action on the cornea. In the case where the eye surface is covered with hypertonic solution, water flows from the aqueous layer through the cornea to the eye surface. A desquamation of superficial cells is also observed after instillation of hypertonic solution in rabbits. Although the instillation of a non-isotonic solution will cause a change in tear osmolality, it will regain the original value within 1 to 2 minutes following dosing. In general, however, hypotonic solutions are well tolerated in the eye and can lead to better corneal absorption of the drug due to a concentration effect on the formulation and increased permeability of the cornea (both by virtue of uptake of water from the formulation by the corneal tissue). Conjunctival absorption is nonproductive and constitutes an additional loss following instillation of a topical dose. Most drugs cross this membrane into the intraocular tissues by either intercellular or transcellular diffusion. Lipophilic drugs are transported via the transcellular route, and hydrophilic drugs penetrate mainly through the intercellular 305 Figure 12. There is little evidence that ophthalmic drugs penetrate into ocular compartments by active transport. In general, corneal penetration is mainly governed by the lipophilicity of the drug but it is also affected by other factors, including solubility, molecular size and shape, charge and degree of ionization. These pathways and the factors affecting the absorption by these mechanisms are discussed in detail in Section 1. There are three pathways for drug penetration across the sclera: • through the perivascular spaces; • through the aqueous media of gel-like mucopolysaccharides; • through the empty spaces within the collagen network. The noncorneal route is usually not productive, as drug penetrating the surface of the eye beyond the corneal- scleral limbus is picked up by local capillary beds and removed to the general circulation. This route in general precludes drug entry into the aqueous humor, which would have an impact on ocular drug delivery. It is interesting that the noncorneal route of absorption may be important for hydrophilic compounds with large molecular weights such as timolol maleate and gentamicin. This route may also be attractive in 306 potentially facilitating the transport of peptides and proteins, either as drugs or drug carriers, to their target sites within the eye. A drop is placed in the inferior cul-de-sac by gently pulling the lower lid away from the globe and creating a pouch to receive the drop. After gently lifting the lid to touch the globe, a small amount of liquid is entrapped in the inferior conjunctival sac, where it may be retained up to twice as long as when it is simply dropped over the superior sclera. Drainage from the cul-de-sac may further be reduced by punctual occlusion or simple eyelid closure, which not only maximizes the contact of drug with the periocular tissues but also slows the rate of the systemic absorption. Following dosing, the normal manoeuvre results in a gradient across he eye as illustrated in Figure 12. This suggests that dosing under the upper lid would improve delivery: however, this method of dosing would be difficult for the patient. The local/systemic effect balance can be improved by reducing the size of the eyedrop and tips capable of delivering a drop of 8–10 μl have been designed by varying the relationship between the inner and outer diameters of the end of the tip. The use of smaller eye droppers results in a reduced systemic drug absorption, but their use in commercial containers has not been popular. Although a smaller drop may be retained longer in the conjunctival sac, the instilled volume less than 8 μl is not recommended due to the difficulty in making up a suitable concentration for the eyedrop. The process of passive diffusion initially involves partition of a drug between the aqueous fluid at the site of the application and the lipoidal cell membrane. The drug in solution in the membrane then diffuses across the membrane followed by a second partition of drug between the membrane and the aqueous fluids within the site of absorption. Two approaches can be used to enhance corneal drug permeability: • modify integrity of the corneal epithelium transiently; • modify the chemical structure of the drug. Flow from the lacrimal gland dilutes the concentration of drug in the tear film pulled up from the lower marginal strip The first approach can be accomplished by exposing the eye to compounds such as chelating agents and surfactants, but it has hardly been explored due to the sensitivity of this particular tissue.
