    Reminder: Carotid arteries should be auscultated (listened to) before palpated. If there is a bruit, we don't palpate because you don't want to accidentally break off the buildup attached to the artery (potentially causing a stroke). Great video overall! Cheers!

    Huge help! I start clinicals tomorrow, haven't done test outs on head to toe assessments yet, however I know this will be a huge part of clinicals. Thank you for clarifying this in a no nonsense-this is how I do it-approach. This is exactly what I needed.

  • @NJgirl4eva89
    @NJgirl4eva89 6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I'm in my first semester in the ADN program at my school and will be tested on this next week. I was actually pretty nervous because our instructors kind of leave us to our own devices and we have to figure things out on our own (unless we ask questions), but this video made it so much easier. Just hearing someone talk it through the whole thing helps a lot. I'm so glad I found your video, it's really helpful. New subscriber for sure!

    I'm an LPN (for about 12 years now) currently in the process of getting accepted into an RN program. They are making us do skills check offs, one being a head to toe assessment, which isn't something that is all that common for LPNs to do. I have been a nervous wreck, going over landmarks in my sleep!! This is the most helpful video and info I have found yet. Thanks!!

    Thanks Nurse Bass. Just got signed off on my Pharmacology Clinicals. Moving on to Med-Surg thanks to you. Teacher asked me at the end: What do you think you missed? I was thinking real hard but I need I covered all your steps. Told her I didn't think I missed anything because I remembered all your steps. She said you didn't. I need you to be more confident. Yep, I was nervous but I did it.

  • @Adendum82
    @Adendum82 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    My biggest like for this vid is the way you make this general assessment flow. I think that's sometimes the hardest part of learning all of the individual assessment separately. There's no flow...and every prof says, "you'll develop your own style and sequence". But it's nice to see (or hear) a nurse putting it together, Profs don't repeat their expected flow more than a couple of times. This is helpful to practice to and develop a timely routine for a H2T assessment. I also love that you are very verbal...it helps to absorb info even when I'm busy with housework or something and can't watch the screen. Thanks Nurse Bass!

    @nursebornproducts6121 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great information! I always started my assessments backward, starting at the toes. For some reason it always felt more comfortable for me to start that way ~ I would start with checking pedal pulses, heels for ulcers, etc and work my way up. It seemed to put patients at ease. Just my personal technique ~ Of course, if I was doing a focused assessment such as a mental status or pulmonary assessment, I would start at the point of concern.

But your video was nice and well done so thank you very very much for sharing!

    This is a very generalized 'Head - To - Toe' Assessment video, however remember your lecture in nursing school regarding about certain areas such as Edema's etc.
    You have to remember that in NCLEX it's mentioned that you have to use the 4 basic techniques for assessment which includes (IN THIS ORDER) Inspection, Palpation, Percussion, and Auscultation. This order is important to remember as it is different in the abdominal area (the order changes into Inspection, Auscultation, Percussion, and Palpation). The rationale for that is the patient might have abdominal pain and if you palpate right away bowel sounds will get disturbed, or general assessment data might not be accurate as the patient will complain 'everything hurts',so palpate last in the abdominal area.
    Second, for checking Edemas press down on the skin, remember it's graded to either +1,+2,+3, or +4. Each grade has a significance in terms of measurement (Or how bad the patient's edema is), which in this case +1 is 0-2mm , +2 2-4mm, +3 4-6mm +4 more than 7mm depression.
    Every nursing school is different as to how they teach these, but these are the very basic all nursing student's should know. Remember that when your studying, every knowledge your obtaining will be applied for a person who will be under your care.

    This has been so helpful! Really broke down how to do a head-toe in a way that makes sense. I have to do my first head-toe demonstration next week so I will be thinking of this video :)

    such a great video. I've been looking for a simple yet clear and easy to understand head to toe assessment for a long time. this would help me a lot in my 1st nursing job. (which I just got recently and I'm really nervous every time I do an assessment) you summarized everything really great.

    excellent video ! going into clinical today in a few hour (evening shift, woot) and it feels like forever since I got to assess an actual patient instead of virtual, so this was a perfect review, thank you!

    Thank you I felt you was right here doing it infront of me physically. I'm a visual learner and I wish you were one of my instructors.
    right now I would like to see how you would write up a Nursing diagnosis

    Thanks so much! I am just starting my second semester and this is the first chapter we are doing. Seeing it done after reading (and before practicing in lab) is making it make more sense (it's a loooong chapter!).
    Thanks again!

    • @NurseBass
      @NurseBass  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Pamela G Haha you're very welcome!! Just remember, practice makes perfect!! So just hit that open lab and do it over and over and over! :)

    thank you for this. we've been trying to figure this out all semester during Clinicals. my biggest problem so far is asking the patient to sit up and move and stuff like that because I feel like I'm really inconveniencing them

    • @NurseBass
      @NurseBass  9 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      +Kirby Bradshaw Yea, it's very awkward at first having to turn on lights, wake up patients, have them move and turn every which way. But you'll get used to it with repeated practice. But you're welcome for the video and I hope it is helpful! Share it with your classmates if you think they'd benefit from it! :D

    This is an excellent basic rundown of a Head to Toe Assessment! Obviously there are other details that one needs to assess for their patient, but to give someone a refresher or a general idea of how this goes this video is so helpful. Thanks Nurse Bass!

    • @NurseBass
