Favorite exhibit booth (other than allnurses.com of course)

Since I'm in nephrology, I liked the new FAST equipment which provides you with a GFR immediately. Very nice when dosing in the ER!

I spent all my time taking to people who were actually hiring nurses. I didn't spend a lot of time on the floor looking at exipits this year. I've done a couple other conferences and have played with most of the tools. I spent way to much time in sessions and then smoozing with the places I was interested in moving to .

Ok I guess now that I've thought about it some, the Blood Bank and learnign about TRALI and Acute Lung INjury. But then again I admit that I'm a geek.

Hmmm.. I liked the arctic sun, and massimo. But I really wanted another smoothie from GE...yummy!!

i spent some time with the spacelab people learning about their new noninvasive cardiac output machine. I work in a CCU where that info is very valuable BUT from what i understand its not real reliable and works best with pts in a NSR. . . NONE of my patients are in a normal sinus rhythm. Our hospital has bought one of these to trial but none of our physicians really believe in it yet. . are any others having these concerns??
