Prostatitis is inflammation of the prostate gland that is caused by infectious agents like bacteria or other conditions. There are four main types: acute bacterial prostatitis, chronic bacterial prostatitis, chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome where the cause is unclear, and asymptomatic inflammatory prostatitis. Prostatitis causes symptoms like perineal pain and difficulty urinating and is most common in men under 50. Treatment involves antibiotics, alpha-blockers, pain medication, and sitz baths. Chronic forms are difficult to treat due to poor antibiotic diffusion into prostatic fluid.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), also called prostate enlargement, is a noncancerous increase in size of the prostate gland. Symptoms may include frequent urination, trouble starting to urinate, weak stream, inability to urinate, or loss of bladder control.
The urethra's main job in males and females is to pass urine outside the body. This thin tube also has an important role in ejaculation for men. When a scar from swelling, injury or infection blocks or slows the flow of urine in this tube, it is called a urethral stricture. Some people feel pain with a urethral stricture.

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a bacterial infection that affects the urinary system, including the bladder, urethra, ureters, and kidneys. Common symptoms include frequent urination, burning sensation during urination, and lower abdominal pain. UTIs are usually treated with antibiotics, and preventive measures such as good urinary hygiene and staying hydrated can help reduce the risk. UTIs are more common in women, but can affect men, children, and the elderly as well. Prompt diagnosis and appropriate treatment are important to prevent complications and promote recovery.

Polices for intensive care units / critical care units ANILKUMAR BR
What is a Policy?
A Policy is a statement, verbal, written or implied, of those principles and rules that are set by Board of Directors as guidelines on organizations actions.
There should be written polices for the intensive care units or critical care units which will guide the personnel working there.
The polices making body, there should be representation from administrative team, medical team and the nursing team.
ADMISSION POLICES: This should specify whether the patients can be admitted directly to CCU /ICU or through the casualty department.
There should be polices regarding the admission of medico-legal cases.
RESUSCIATION EQUIPMENTS IN INTENSISIVE CARE UNITSANILKUMAR BR
Intensive care unit (ICU) equipment includes patient monitoring, respiratory and cardiac support, pain management, emergency resuscitation devices, and other life support equipment .
They are designed to care for patients who are seriously injured, have a critical or life-threatening illness, or have undergone a major surgical procedure thereby requiring 24-hour care and monitoring.
Intensive care unit equipment includes
Patient monitoring devices
Life support and emergency resuscitation devices, and
Diagnostic devices.
Nursing management of critically ill patient in intensive care unitsANILKUMAR BR
Critical care nursing: it is the field of nursing with a focus on the utmost care of the critically ill (or) unstable patients.
Critically ill patients : critically ill patients are those who are at risk for actual (or) potential life threatening health problems.

quick Check Assessment in CCU.
Infection control protocols in intensive care unitsANILKUMAR BR
Hospital acquired infections (HAIs) are common in intensive care unit (ICU) patient and are associated with increased morbidity and mortality.
The main reason being severity of illness, interruption of normal defense mechanism (e.g. mechanical ventilation), malnutrition & inability to ambulate make it more susceptible to multi drug resistant organism (MDRO).
The most frequent mode of transmission is Contact transmission, this may be direct or indirect other modes include droplet transmission, airborne transmission, common vehicle such as ventilator etc.
Abnormal development or deformities of the ear anatomy can cause a range of complications, from cosmetic issues to hearing and development problems.
An estimated 6 to 45 percent of children are born with some sort of congenital ear deformity.
Normally, the pleural space contains a small amount of fluid (5 to 15 mL), which acts as a lubricant that allows the pleural surfaces to move without friction.
But if fluid builds up from either increased production or inadequate removal pleural effusion results.
Pleural effusion B/L or unilateral (parapneumonic process)
Refers to any significant collection of fluid within pleural space.
Any imbalance in formation, absorption lead accumulation of pleural fluid. Common condition:
CHF
Bacterial pneumonia
Malignancy(chest tumor)
Pulmonary embolism
Pleura effusion is a condition refers to a collection of fluid in the pleural space. It is almost secondary to other conditions.
Hearing is one of our primary modes of communication. 360 million people worldwide have disabling hearing loss.
Hearing loss may result from genetic causes, complications at birth, certain infectious diseases, chronic ear infections, the use of particular drugs, exposure to excessive noise and ageing.
Hearing loss may be mild, moderate, severe or profound.
It can affect one ear or both ears, and leads to difficulty in hearing conversational speech or loud sounds. it may occur in one or both ear.

There are many types of cancer treatment. The types of treatment that patient receive will depend on the type of cancer, stage of cancer and how advanced it is.
Some people with cancer will have only one treatment. But most people have a combination of treatments, such as surgery with chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy.
Prostate cancer or tumor is the most common cancer in men other than non-melanoma skin cancer.
The majority (more than 75%) of cases occur in men over age 65.
Prostate cancer is a malignant tumor of the prostate gland.
Nursing management of patients with oncological conditionsANILKUMAR BR
Cancer is a group of diseases characterized by uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells.
Cancer is caused by external factors and internal factors which may act together to initiate or promote carcinogenesis.
External Factors - chemicals, radiation, viruses, and lifestyle.
Internal Factors – hormones, immune condition, and inherited mutations.
Oncology branch of medicine deals with etiology, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of cancer.
Onco - is a Greek word meaning tumor .
A group of eye disorders, glaucoma is characterized by high intraocular pressure (IOP) that damages the optic nerve.
Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of irreversible blindness in the world and is the leading cause of blindness among adults in the United States.
Glaucoma may occur as primary or congenital disease or secondary to other causes, such as injury, infection, surgery, or prolonged use of topical corticosteroids.
Primary glaucoma has mainly two forms :
1. Open angle glaucoma ( chronic, simple, or wide angle glaucoma)
2. Angle –closure glaucoma( Acute or narrow angle glaucoma)
Angle –closure glaucoma occurs suddenly and may cause permanent or irreversible vision loss in 48 to 72 hours.
An inflammation of the conjunctiva commonly known as pink eye. Conjunctivitis is usually acute condition and self- limiting.
Conjunctivitis may be unilateral or bilateral.
It may also be chronic, possibly indicating degenerative changes or damage from repeated attacks.
It transmitted by contaminated towels, wash cloths, or the client own hands and it usually spreads very rapidly from one eye to otCommon causes are
Bacterial
Viral and chlamydial infection
Less common causes
Allergy
Parasitic disease and fungal infection
Occupational irritants

Nursing assessment and management of patients with hepatic disordersANILKUMAR BR
Liver or Hepatic disorders are common and may result from a virus or exposure to toxic substances such as alcohol.
Another liver disorder is cancer: hepatocellular carcinoma is a highly malignant tumor that is difficult to treat and often fatal.
Liver function is complex, and liver dysfunction affects all body systems.
For this reason, the nurse must understand how the liver functions and must have expert assessment and clinical management skills to care for patients undergoing complex diagnostic and treatment procedures.
The liver plays additional roles in detoxification of chemicals and synthesis and storage of important nutrients and The liver is especially important in the regulation of glucose and protein metabolism .
Ototoxicity is, quite simply, ear poisoning (oto = ear, toxicity = poisoning), which results from exposure to drugs or chemicals that damage the inner ear or the vestibulo-cochlear nerve (the nerve sending balance and hearing information from the inner ear to the brain).
Nursing assessment and Management clients with Pancreatic disordersANILKUMAR BR
The pancreas, located in the upper abdomen, has endocrine as well as exocrine functions .
The secretion of pancreatic enzymes into the gastrointestinal tract through the pancreatic duct represents its exocrine function.
The secretion of insulin, glucagon, and somatostatin directly into the bloodstream represents its endocrine function.
Pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas) is a serious disorder. The most basic classification system used to describe or categorize the various stages and forms of pancreatitis divides the disorder into acute or chronic forms.
Acute pancreatitis can be a medical emergency associated with a high risk for life-threatening complications and mortality, whereas chronic pancreatitis often goes undetected until 80% to 90% of the exocrine and endocrine tissue is destroyed.
Acute pancreatitis does not usually lead to chronic pancreatitis unless complications develop.
Pneumonia is an inflammation of the lung parenchyma caused by various microorganisms, including bacteria, mycobacteria, fungi, and viruses.
Pneumonitis is a more general term that describes the inflammatory process in the lung tissue that may predispose and Pneumonia is an inflammation of the lung parenchyma that is caused by a microbial agent.
place the patient at risk for microbial invasion.
Pneumonia is classified into four: community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) and hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP), pneumonia in the immunocompromised host, and aspiration pneumonia.
Nurses are primarily involved in the administration of medication across various settings. Nurses are also involved in both dispensing and preparation of medication. Research on medical administration errors (MAEs) shows an error rate of 60%, 34 mainly in the form of wrong time, wrong rate, or wrong dose.
There are many ways to prevent medication errors and one way of which is understanding the 10 “rights” of drug administration:
Thoracentesis (thor-a-sen-tee-sis) is a procedure that is done to remove a sample of fluid from around the lung.
The lung is covered with a tissue called the pleura. The inside of the chest is also lined with pleura.
The space between these two areas is called the pleural space.
This space normally contains just a thin layer of fluid, however, some conditions such as pneumonia, some types of cancer, or congestive heart failure may cause excessive fluid to develop (pleural effusion).
Thoracentesis, also known as pleural fluid analysis, is a procedure in which a needle is inserted through the back of the chest wall into the pleural space (a space that exists between the two lungs and the anterior chest wall) to remove fluid or air.
Pleural fluid analysis is the microscopic and chemical lab analysis of the fluid obtained during thoracentesis.
IndDiagnostic: determination of pleural effusion etiology (e.g. transudative versus exudative) usually requires the removal of 50 to 100mL of pleural fluid for laboratory studies. Most new effusions require diagnostic thoracentesis, an exception being a new effusion with a clear clinical diagnosis (e.g. CHF) with no evidence for superimposed pleural space infection
Therapeutic: reduce dyspnea and respiratory compromise in patients with large pleural effusions. This is typically achieved by removing a much larger volume of fluid compared to the diagnostic thoracentesis

Nephrotic syndrome may be caused by primary (idiopathic) renal disease or by a variety of secondary causes. Patients present with marked edema, proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia, and often hyperlipidemia.
Nephrotic syndrome is a primary glomerular disease characterized by the following:
Marked increase in protein in the urine (proteinuria)
Decrease in albumin in the blood (hypoalbuminemia)
Edema (The swelling (edema), can be most noticeable on the face, around the eyes, around the feet and ankles, and in the belly area (or the abdomen).
High serum cholesterol and low-density lipoproteins (hyperlipidemia)
Nephrotic syndrome is a clinical disorder characterized by marked increase of protein in the urine ( proteinuria ), decrease in albumin in the blood (hypoalbuminemia ),edema, & excess lipids in the blood ( hyperlipidemia )
Pathophysiology
Nephrotic syndrome can occur with almost any intrinsic renal disease or systemic disease that affects the glomerulus.
Although generally considered a disorder of childhood, nephrotic syndrome does occur in adults, including the elderly. Causes include:
Chronic glomerulonephritis
Diabetes mellitus with intercapillary glomerulosclerosis
Amyloidosis of the kidney
Systemic lupus erythematosus
Multiple myeloma and renal vein thrombosis.
NSAIDs
Pre eclampsia

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

2. Prostatitis is an inflammation of the
prostate gland, that is caused by infectious
agents (bacteria, fungi and mycoplasma)
or other conditions including urethral
stricture, prostatic hyperplasia.
4. Prostatitis is a broad term that describes a
group of inflammatory conditions affecting the
prostate gland.
It is the most common urologic problem in
men younger than 50 years of age.
5. Both acute and chronic Bactrial prostatis,
generally result from orginsms reaching the
prostate gland by one of the following routes :
1. Ascending from the urethra (upward)
2. Descending from the bladder (down wards)
and invasion via the blood stream or the
lymphatic channels.
6. Common orginsms are such as
Escherichia coli
Klebsiella
Pseudomonas
Enterobacter
Proteus
Nisseeia gonorrhea and group D streptococi
7. Chronic Bactrial prostatis involves recurrent
episodes of infection.
Chronic prostatitis (CP) or chronic pelvic pain
syndrome (CPPS) is a new term that describes the
syndrome with prostate and urinary pain in the
absence of an obvious infectious process.
The Etiology or causes of CP or CPPS is unclear.
It may be associated with STDs
8. Asymptotic inflammatory prostatis is usually
diagnosed in individuals who have no
symptom, but are found to have an
inflammatory process in the prostate.
9. Perineal discomfort
Burning, Urgency and frequency
Pain with ejaculation
prostatodynia (pain in the prostate gland)
Acute Bactrial prostatis may produce
sudden fever and chils a and
Perineal,rectal and low back pain.
10. Dysuria, frequency, Urgency and Nocturia
may occur some patients do not have a
symptoms.
11. Swelling of the prostate gland
Urinary retention
Epididymitis (information of the
Epididymis)
Bactermia and Pyelonephritis
12. History collection and physical examination
Culture of the prostate fluid or tissue and
occasionally histological examination of the tissue
urine analysis and culture
WBC
MRI and Transabdominal ultrasound
13. The goal of therapy for acute Bactrial prostatis is
avoid the complications of abscess formation and
septicemia.
Antibiotics commonly used for acute or chronic
Bactrial prostatis antibiotics therapy involves for
up to 10 to 14 days.
14. The patient is encouraged to remain on bed
rest to alleviate symptoms quickly.
Comfort is provided with analgesics to relieve
pain, anti spasmodics medications and
bladder sedatives (to relive bladder irritability)
sitz bath and stool softners. Etc
15. Chronic bactrial prostatis is difficult to treat
because most antibiotics diffuse poorly from
the plasma into the prostatic fluid.
Treatment includes alpha – adrenergic
blockers to promote relaxation of the bladder
and prostate.
16. Others treatment modalities include for
chronic prostatitis including the retention of
prostatic fluid by ejaculation through sexual
intercourse, others Anti spasmodic, sitz bath
and stool softners .
17. Nursing management including assess the
patient’s conditions.
Administrating of prescribed antibiotics and
provision of comfort measures, including
prescribed analgesics agents and sitz bath.
18. If the patients with chronic prostatitis is
usually treated an OPD basis and needs to
be instructed about the importance of
continuing Anti biotics therapy.
