Questions about upcoming TAH
Hi;
I am sorry for my stupid question, but what is a telememetry unit?? and what is an ent tube??
what type of surgery are you having? were you able to ask him "why" he was placing you there and why the tube??
dont be afraid to ask your doctor questions, that is why he is there for, you have to be put at ease, and feel comfortable and have faith in your doctor before surgery...

Questions about upcoming TAH
A telemetry unit is where they monitor patients' vitals 24 x 7. All the patients are hooked up to monitors which beep if they get in trouble.
I was on a General Surgery floor and it was okay.
Do you have some other condition? I too have never heard of an ENT tube.
