Insertion and removal of a male urethral stent catheter is demonstrated in this clinical-skills video. Urethral stents are used to keep the urinary channel open, most often in relation to prostate enlargement. A procedure resource for urology and nursing trainees. Procedure education only — not personal medical advice.
An older clinical recording, this video shows how an enema is administered, demonstrating the equipment and the steps involved in the procedure. It serves as a clinical-skills demonstration for students and caregivers. Procedure education only — not personal medical advice.
Placement of an intrauterine device (IUD) is shown step by step in this gynecology video, from preparing the instruments to positioning the device inside the uterus. The IUD is a long-acting, reversible form of contraception fitted during a short clinic procedure. A learning resource for students and patients. Educational only — not medical advice.
A rectal examination performed by proctoscopy is demonstrated in this physical examination video. The recording shows assessment of the rectum with the patient in the jackknife position. It is a training resource for students learning gastrointestinal examination skills. The content is offered for educational purposes for learners in health fields.
Fetal heart sounds recorded with a handheld monitor are presented in this short cardiology clip. Listening to the fetal heartbeat is a routine part of prenatal assessment, used to check the baby's rate and rhythm before birth. A brief learning clip for students.

ectal exam is an internal examination of the rectum such as by a physician or other healthcare professional.
The digital rectal examination (DRE, Latin palpatio per anum or PPA) is a relatively simple procedure. The patient is placed in a position where the anus is accessible and relaxed (lying on the side, squatting on the examination table, bent over the examination table, etc). The physician inserts a gloved and lubricated finger into the rectum through the anus and palpates the insides.
The DRE is inadequate as a screening tool for colorectal cancer because it examines less than 10% of the colorectal mucosa; colonoscopy is preferred. However, it's an important part of a general examination, as many tumors or other diseases are made manifest in the distal part of the rectum.
This examination may be used: * for the diagnosis of rectal tumors and other forms of cancer; * in males, for the diagnosis of prostatic disorders, notably tumors and benign prostatic hyperplasia; * for the diagnosis of appendicitis or other examples of an acute abdomen (i.e. acute abdominal symptoms indicating a serious underlying disease); * for the estimation of the tonicity of the anal sphincter, which may be useful in case of fecal incontinence or neurologic diseases, including traumatic spinal cord injuries; * in females, for gynecological palpations of internal organs * for examination of the hardness and color of the feces (ie. in cases of constipation, and fecal impaction); * prior to a colonoscopy or proctoscopy. * to evaluate haemorrhoids
The DRE is frequently combined with an FOBT (fecal occult blood test), which may be useful for diagnosing the etiology of an anemia and/or confirming a gastrointestinal bleed.
Sometimes proctoscopy may also be part of a rectal examination.
Vaginal delivery is the most common and safest type of childbirth. When necessary in certain circumstances, forceps (instruments resembling large spoons) may be used to cup your baby's head and help guide the baby through the birth canal. Vacuum delivery is another way to assist delivery and is similar to forceps delivery. In vacuum delivery, a plastic cup is applied to the baby's head by suction and the health care provider gently pulls the baby from the birth canal.
Male urethral catheterization is demonstrated here using sterile technique, showing how a urinary catheter is passed into the bladder. The video is a procedure-skills resource for medical students, nurses, and clinicians. Procedure education only — not personal medical advice.
This short clinical-skills video demonstrates an intramuscular injection being given to a female patient. Intramuscular injections deliver medication deep into the muscle tissue, and correct site selection and technique are essential parts of everyday nursing and clinical practice.
A complete head-to-toe assessment of a pediatric patient is presented in this teaching video, following the Bates visual guide format used in clinical training. It works through each body system in examination order. A study resource for students learning pediatric examination. Educational only — not medical advice.
