During the preoperative visit, Mrs H,
a 40-year-old woman admitted for
investigations of melena requiring
sigmoidoscopy, greeted the anaesthetic
nurse specialist with a firm hand shake
and a smile. Mrs H had insulin dependent
diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and her condition
was stable at present as documented in
her admission nursing and medical notes.
She managed her condition by checking
blood glucose levels four hourly and selfadministering
subcutaneous insulin as
required. She settled into the ward, was
reading a book, watching TV and looking
forward to receiving her visitors. Mrs
H indicated that this was not her first
experience of sigmoidoscopy and felt
relatively assured of what was to occur
during her perioperative journey.
This contrary case clearly demonstrates
the lack of the defining attributes of
vulnerability. This lady managed her IDDM
and was empowered, independent and in
control of her regimen. She settled into
the ward and relaxed, as demonstrated
in the coping mechanisms displayed by
reading and watching TV. She displayed
no distress or signs of anxiety even though
she required an investigative procedure
and care delivery within the perioperative
