2. Glaucoma and Valium

   cjar107013 replied to BellsRNBSN's topic in Student Assist

   The study I found: http://www.agingeye.net/glaucoma/glaucomadrugtreatment.php (scroll to the bottom and read the pdf in the Marijuana and Glaucoma section) basically says the mechanism of action for marijuana decreasing IOP is unknown. So, to toss ou...

3. How do you incorporate faith into your daily nursing tasks?

   cjar107013 replied to orangepink's topic in Spirituality

   I think you are right (ETA: Nascar nurse) and I think we could break it down even further. I've observed that there's a huge difference between... black and white, rich and poor, BSN and ADN, adjective and other adjective. Us versus them is ugly, no...

5. Help: Need Money for School

   cjar107013 replied to Alum08's topic in General Nursing

   You mentioned you had an MBA so you might have heard of the three Fs of small business: friend, family, and fools. YMMV.

9. Need Help Trying to Understand Pedi Math Question

   cjar107013 replied to live&love&heal's topic in General Students

   Something I have noticed with these math problems is that they tend to throw in numbers that don't mean anything for the question being asked. Your question asked how much to be administered. And it gave you a dose available. There is the math proble...

10. OK we get it STUD, you're straight

    cjar107013 replied to bigrigcowboy's topic in Male Students

    I've posted in some of these threads, so if my use of the word normal seems to imply that being homosexual is abnormal then it was poor wording on my part. Sorry. But I don't think that me mentioning that I am married and normal is any sort of slight...

11. Is it me, or is there a dichotomy for male nurses??

    cjar107013 replied to Mike32110's topic in Male Students

    Which is what 99% of guys are going to say no matter what their hair color is, their shoe size is, their bowling average, their relationship status and sexual preference is, or their job is. I don't think your first post was total garbage. I think w...

12. How does BON handle + marijuana screens from nurses in states that have legalized it?

    Look at the counties that voted for it: AZ - Election Results This might indicate that not all of Arizona is as conservative as you think (hint- Flagstaff and Tucson). Also, Arizona as a whole didn't used to be so conservative; they've passed medical...

13. Dehydration Q

    cjar107013 replied to glovedgoddess's topic in Student Assist

    That was bad terminology on my part. By shunting to the core I meant not just the core of the body, but the core systems: heart, lungs, and brain.

14. Dehydration Q

    cjar107013 replied to glovedgoddess's topic in Student Assist

    I can't help on #2 but hopefully I can on #1: This guy has a good article that relates to your question: Making Light: Trauma and You, Part Two: Shock Dehydration equals lowered volume. Lowered volume equals hypovolemia. Hypovolemia equals the body s...

    cjar107013 replied to pinkfluffybunny's topic in Student Assist
