1. Ca++ and Threshold potential

   mdubb342 posted a topic in CRNA

   Hey everyone I have a calcium question: In patients with hyperK+, Ca++ blocks the Na+ leak channels reducing the rate of depolarization and may also decrease VRM (please correct me if I am wrong). However, we learned in physiology that Ca++ can be be...

2. Is this what I have to look forward to being a male nurse....

   mdubb342 replied to zoetic87's topic in Male Students

   Not to sound crass, this might be the most absurd post i've read. If a person abuses anyone, it is an interpersonal problem, not a systemic issue within their profession. I wouldnt worry about this unless you have a history of abusing others. I've ho...

   mdubb342 replied to walkerrn2015's topic in SRNA

   Absolutely not. You should take the GRE and apply!

4. TWU CRNA 2018

   mdubb342 replied to walkerrn2015's topic in SRNA

   It all depends how well you did on your GRE, if you're willing to go to any clinical site, and how you interview. What were your other stats if you don't mind me asking?

   Any new updates this week for the Bismark, Denver or DFW sites?

   mdubb342 replied to cardiacrrt's topic in SRNA

   I was told there was a surplus of applications and that admissions is running behind on their response time. Good luck everyone.

7. Should I put this experience on my resume?

   mdubb342 replied to HermioneG's topic in Job Hunt

   you dont need to put it on the resume, but if you can somehow speak about it during your interview and how it impacted you, will make you a better nurse, shows leadership, etc, I would. Good luck

8. New nurse needing advise!

   mdubb342 replied to adr60763's topic in Job Hunt

   Ive never heard of institutions reimbursing for NCLEX and license. I'd almost say its essential to ask all of those questions. You need to know what the next few years of your life will look like. Be sure you comb through your contract thoroughly bef...

9. BSN or MSN

   mdubb342 replied to mpzell's topic in SRNA

   MSN and BSN perform the same functions at hospitals Ive worked. Along with GPA, what you do post-graduation is more telling of who you are as a prospective SRNA than if youre an MS or a BS (GRE, additional chem/stats/science courses, CCRN)

10. Prospective SRNA with Lower GPAs

    mdubb342 posted a topic in SRNA

    Hey everyone. I am a prospective SRNA. I have been wanting to go the nurse anesthesia route for quite some time. Unfortunately, my 18 year old self put grades on the back burner and partying was the priority. Found my focus an was extremely motivated...
