Track: ENT Healthcare in Nursing

ENT healthcare in nursing focuses on providing specialized care to patients with conditions related to the ear, nose, and throat. Nurses working in ENT settings are crucial in helping manage and treat various ENT disorders, from acute infections to chronic diseases. Their role includes patient education, preoperative and postoperative care, and assisting in diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.
Ear Infections (Otitis Media)
Nurses play an essential role in caring for patients with otitis media, which involves inflammation or infection of the middle ear. Treatment may include administering antibiotics, pain management, and educating patients on preventing future infections. Nurses also help with ear drainage and monitor for complications, like hearing loss.
Post-Surgical Care (Tonsillectomy, Adenoidectomy)
After ENT surgeries, such as tonsillectomy or adenoidectomy, nurses provide postoperative care, monitoring for complications like bleeding or infection. They assist with pain management, educate patients on recovery protocols, and ensure proper hydration and nutrition to prevent dehydration during the healing process.
Nasal and Sinus Care
For conditions like sinusitis or nasal polyps, nurses help administer treatments like nasal sprays, saline irrigation, and ensure patients understand proper hygiene techniques. They also assist in preparing patients for diagnostic procedures like nasal endoscopy.
Hearing Loss Management
Nurses working in ENT settings help manage hearing loss by assisting patients in adjusting to hearing aids or cochlear implants. They educate patients on how to use these devices, schedule follow-up appointments, and offer support to those adapting to hearing loss.
