Tiivistelmä
This thesis, commissioned by Lapland University of Applied Sciences, focused on creating a video and a guide for performing sterile indwelling catheterisation and removal on female patients. The purpose of this thesis is to produce a video to teach and demonstrate how to successfully perform female indwelling catheterisation and removal in a sterile and aseptic manner. The aim is to expand the knowledge and skills of international nursing students on the female catheterization process and its aseptic technique. This thesis explains and demonstrates the process of sterile insertion and removal of female indwelling catheters.
The thesis report is divided into three sections: theory, implementation, and evaluation. The theory section covers the urinary system, types of urinary catheters, complications associated with catheterisation, the importance of sterile technique in female catheterisation, and patient safety guidance. Emphasizing safety is essential to help students prevent infections and ensure high-quality care. Various resources were utilized, including the school library, e-articles, and online publications. Additionally, guidelines for catheterization provided by THL were carefully followed.
The video was filmed at the Lapland University of Applied Science Kemi campus and edited with the iMovie application. Voice-over narration and supporting images were added to explain each step. The final video will be saved and uploaded to the commissioner YouTube channel, making it accessible as a teaching resource for other students.
