Wow Gwenith,

Thanks for the great links...they're excellent!

WOW!

You started with the right one.

I made copies from the web of Marks FAQ for our orientation notebook. I gave a new CCRN the professionally printed copy.

The AACN has updates. Short, sweet, and helpful.

Getting our hospital to adopt them may take some time.

Also excellent clinical updates:

Ventilator associated pneumonia

Dysrhythmia monitoring

Pulmonary artery pressure measurement.
