May 21, 201511 yr Really? This goes well with the thread about taking accurate BP's without a BP cuff. Why would this be state specific? Would this not be patient or facility/physician protocol specific? I can guarantee the amount I can safely obtain from my 7yr old patient with urinary retention and abdominal distention is not the same as a 6'2" 200# 60 year old patient.
