log rolling//log roll Explanation: ¡Hola! Creo que se refiere a "log rolling". In medicine, in particular, in emergency medicine, the log roll or logrolling is a maneuver used to move a patient without flexing the spinal column. Patient's legs are stretched, the head is held, to immobilize the neck.[1] Some sources recommend patient's arms crossed over the chest,[1] while others suggest that to minimize the amount of lateral spinal displacement the arms must be stretched along the sides, with palms resting on the thighs.[2][3] After that the patient is carefully rolled in the desired direction without twisting or bending the body. Log-rolling Typically logrolling into a supine position is used for transport of a casualty. Other cases include logrolling on a side, e.g., to facilitate vomiting.,[3] or from side to side, for medical examination.[4 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logrolling_(medicine) Lifting and handling the patient The purpose of log-rolling is to maintain alignment of the whole spine while turning and moving a patient who has a spinal surgery or who is suspected of having one (Groeneveld et al, 2001). The standard log-roll technique requires a minimum of five staff. The nurse at the head of the bed is responsible for manually supporting the cervical spine (even if a hard collar is in situ) and for coordinating the move. The nurse controlling the head/neck must ensure immobilisation from the base of the skull through all the cervical vertebrae. The patient’s upper leg must be kept in alignment throughout the turn to prevent movement at a thoraco-lumbar site. Pillows may be placed along the length of the trunk and legs to tilt the patient 30-90° (Harrison, 2000). It should be stressed that the use of a head immobiliser attached to the bed is a very dangerous practice, as sudden movement, coughing or vomiting will cause the body to pivot and cause movement at the neck (Cooke, 1998). Scoop stretchers and spinal boards are suitable for transferring patients having a computerised tomography or magnetic resonance imaging scan. Where it is necessary to slide a patient who may have a cervical injury on to the CT scanner, a minimum of seven staff should be employed to maintain spinal alignment (Harrison, 2000). When using scoop stretchers, care should be taken to prevent soft-tissue trauma to the patient who has little or no skin sensation. A sheet must always be in place between the patient and the stretcher, therefore. https://www.nursingtimes.net/clinical-archive/pain-managemen... |

| Reference: Findings Reference information: TÉCNICAS DE MOVILIZACIÓN DE PACIENTES [...] CON TRES PERSONAS (Movilización en Bloque) Si el enfermo no puede moverse en absoluto serán necesarias tres personas; La camilla se coloca perpendicular a la cama, con la cabecera de la camilla tocando los pies de la cama; (ambas deberán estar frenadas) Las tres personas se sitúan frente a la cama, adelantando un pie hacia la misma; Doblan las rodillas al unísono y colocan sus brazos bajo el paciente: el primero, uno por debajo de la nuca y hombros y el otro en la región lumbar; el segundo, uno bajo la región lumbar y otro debajo de las caderas, y el tercero, uno debajo de las caderas y el otro debajo de las piernas; Después vuelven al paciente hacia ellos haciéndole deslizar suavemente sobre sus brazos. Éstos se mantienen cerca del cuerpo para evitar esfuerzos inútiles; Se levantan, giran los pies y avanzan hacia la camilla, luego doblan las rodillas y apoyan los brazos en la misma. Los movimientos han de ser suaves y simultáneos para dar seguridad al enfermo y evitar que se asuste. http://www.auxiliar-enfermeria.com/movilizaciones.htm -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 32 mins (2017-04-17 01:08:06 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Based on above it seems to be a bed-to-stretcher transfer |
