high-tech nursing

Today a lot of skilled nurses use many high-tech tools, these nurses work at schools or other places and especially in hospitals.
They use high tech tools such as the automated external defibrillator or AED; this can shock a person’s heart with an electric stun and restart a heart that isn’t breathing well. Another is measuring a patient’s oxygen level called the pulse oximeter that clamps the end of the patient’s finger nails to get the oxygen level of the person’s blood. Or delivering the exact amount of medication to a patient called the infusion pump.
The high-tech harvesting is a tool called an endoscope that removes the largest vein in the leg without hurting or tearing the tissue in the leg. Paul Smith a specially trained nurse said this is the best thing he has done because it doesn’t damage the tissue and loosens the vein from the surrounding tissue and pulls it from the leg.
The virtual training most nurses go through is the simman a mannequin that is lifelike and the students practice on these. The mannequin tells the students what they did wrong and what they did right. Some nurses use video game technology that helps them give better patient care.
