Fluid Management in Scopes
Captions available
The idea
Endoscopic procedures such as arthroscopy and cystoscopy circulate fluid, usually saline, to create space and keep the view clear.
In practice
The amount of fluid used is tracked, warmed fluids help prevent hypothermia, and spilled fluid is cleaned up promptly.
Where people slip
Wet floors are a common cause of slips in the operating room.
