Clinical Placement D4

Day 4 : 19 th May 2016 My colleague (Fatin) and I listened and involved in the passing report. So we only had one patient which was admitted in the afternoon of 18 th May 2016. This patient has Supra Ventricular Tachycardia (SVT). The SVT is an abnormally fast heart rate of more than 60 beats per minute. This patient has around 115 beats per minute. So during the doctors' round, the patient has questions and answers session with the doctors. The doctors explained to him what should be done to reduce the heart rate per minute. The doctor gave opinion of first, taking medicine and see the outcomes and if the medicine do not show any positive outcomes, operation would be the ones.

One patient to transfer out to the medical ward. Whereby one patient to have a CT Scan (Computerized Tomography Scan) to RIPASH as the CT scan machine in SSBH is still under maintenance.

Clinical Placement

Day 1 : 16 th May 2016 Today is the first day of our 7 th rotation of Clinical Placement. So this rotation, I was assigned in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) in Suri Seri Begawan Hospital (SSBH) in Belait District. There are four of us assigned in this unit. I was a bit nervous because this is the first time we were located in different hospitals among our colleagues. Some at Tutong Hospital, Renal Centre in Kiaraong and Rimba, and others are at RIPAS Hospital. The staffs are very welcoming us in the unit and do a short briefing/orientation around the unit itself. Then we were called by the Matron and Sisters to meet them for the first time. They gave us briefing and a short welcoming speech. Then we had a 'hospital-round' to familiarize with the hospital setting or layout. We even went to the Medical and Surgical wards as well as the Obstretic and Gynaecology ward. Briefing from the Sister regarding the ICU settings. The roles of the staffs in the ICU T...
