Introduction of Disease Condition
![Page 18: Hernias](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050710/5478ee27b4af9f253a8b4575/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
HerniaA hernia is the abnormal protrusion of an
organ,tissue or part of an organ through the structure that normally contains it.Hernia most commonly occurs in the abdominal cavity as a result of a congenital or acquired wakness of abdominal musculature.Hernias can occurs at any age and in either sex.Indirect hernias are most common type and typically occurs in men.Direct hernias found more commonly in elder people.
![Page 19: Hernias](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050710/5478ee27b4af9f253a8b4575/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
There are several types of hernia : -Inguinal hernia -Femoral hernia -Incisional hernia -umbilical hernia -Hiatus hernia -Epigastric hernia -Spigelian hernia -Muscles hernia
![Page 20: Hernias](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050710/5478ee27b4af9f253a8b4575/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Obstructed Inguinal HerniaProtrusion of abdominal cavity contents
through the inguinal canal. They are very common and their repair is one of the most frequently performed operations.
There are two types of Inguinal herniao Direct inguinal herniao Indirect inguinal hernia
![Page 21: Hernias](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050710/5478ee27b4af9f253a8b4575/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Indirect Inguinal HerniaThe abnormal passage of an internal abdominal
organ or structure trough the inguinal canal.In males this will result in a unilateral bulge in the scrotum,in female there will be unilateral swelling in ths region of the labia majora.
Many hernias reduce (go away) on their own but returns at times of straining of lifting
A hernia that does not go away and cause pain is a surgical emergency
![Page 22: Hernias](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050710/5478ee27b4af9f253a8b4575/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

EpidemiologyIt is estimated that over 20 million surgical
procedures for inguinal hernia are performed each year
the disorder predominantly affects men (male:female ratio is 7:1
Approximately 75% of all hernias occur in the groin; two thirds of these hernias are indirect and one third direct

Incidence RateAbout 25% of males and 2% of females
develop inguinal hernias; this is the most common hernia in males and females.
![Page 26: Hernias](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050710/5478ee27b4af9f253a8b4575/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
EtiologyAccording to bookAlthough abdominal hernias can be present at birth,
others develop later in life. Some involve pathways formed during fetal development, existing openings in the abdominal cavity, or areas of abdominal-wall weakness
Any condition that increases the pressure of the abdominal cavity may contribute to the formation or worsening of a hernia
For example- ObesityHeavy liftingCoughingStraining during bowel movement or urination

PathophysiologyIndirect inguinal hernias usually occur because of a
persistent process vaginalis. As the hernia emerges through the deep internal ring
it carries with it fascial linings of the tissue it transverses
The hernia courses along the inguinal canal lateral to the epigastric arteries and emerges through the external ring slightly lateral to the pubic tubercle.
Contents of this hernia then follow the tract of the spermatic cord down into the scrotal sac in men
![Page 29: Hernias](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050710/5478ee27b4af9f253a8b4575/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

TreatmentTreatment can be Non operative and OperativeNon-OperativeObservationIf there are compelling co-morbid medical
conditions that preclude surgery, then a truss, or support hernia belt may be employed. A truss does not repair the hernia defect, but will afford some relief of symptoms
Trusses can provide symptomatic relief -Hernia control in 30% of patient

Prognosis of My PatientMy patient stayed hospital for 2 days after surgery.
During post operative periods no any complication arises and discharged on 068/04/04 so, the prognosis of my patient is good.
![Page 41: Hernias](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050710/5478ee27b4af9f253a8b4575/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Theory application during case study While caring the patient I applied Orem’s theory. There
are three component in Orem’s theory:1. Theory of self care2. Theory of self care deficit3. Theory of nursing system Wholly compensatory Partially compensatory Supportive educative system

Nursing ManagementPre-operative
Closely monitor vital signs and provide routine preoperative preparation. If necessary, When surgery is scheduled
Administer I.V. fluids and analgesics for pain as ordered.
Place the patient in Trendelenburg's position to reduce pressure on the hernia site.
Pain related to swelling and pressure
![Page 43: Hernias](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050710/5478ee27b4af9f253a8b4575/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Post operativeProvide routine postoperative care. Don't allow the patient to cough, but do
encourage deep breathing and frequent turning.
Apply ice bags to the scrotum to reduce swelling and relieve pain; elevating the scrotum on rolled towels also reduces swelling.
Administer analgesics as necessary. In males, suspensory bandage may be used to
provide support

Discharge TeachingTell the postoperative patient that he'll probably be able
to return to work or school and resume all normal activities within 2 to 4 weeks.
Explain that he or she can resume normal activities 2 to 4 weeks after surgery.
Remind him to obtain his physician's permission before returning to work or completely resuming his normal activities.
Before discharge, Instruct him to watch for signs of infection (oozing, tenderness, warmth, redness) at the incision site. Tell him to keep the incision clean and covered until the sutures are removed.
Follow up visit in OPD for stich removal
![Page 61: Hernias](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050710/5478ee27b4af9f253a8b4575/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
Inform the postoperative patient that the risk of recurrence depends on the success of the surgery, his general health, and his lifestyle.
Teach the patient signs and symptoms of infection: poor wound healing, wound drainage, continued incision pain, incision swelling and redness, cough, fever, and mucus production.
Explain the importance of completion of all antibiotics. Explain the mechanism of action, side effects, and dosage recommendations of all analgesics.
Caution the patient against lifting and straining.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR KIND ATTENTION

Treatment Options
All hernias should be surgically corrected to remove the risk of incarceration and strangulation.
If there are compelling co-morbid medical conditions that preclude surgery, then a truss, or support hernia belt may be employed. A truss does not repair the hernia defect, but will afford some relief of symptoms.
Modern methods of repair include open primary closure of the defect with sutures (Shouldice or "Canadian" Repair, Bassini Repair); patch closure with prosthetic materials (Polypropylene or Gortex) tension-free (Lichtenstein-type) and laparoscopic repair.
