And why do you think it would be important to know somebody's fluid balance? Did they teach you about cardiac output, congestive heart failure, renal failure, dehydration, diuretics, anything like any of that? Don't you know that the nurse will be responsible for keeping an eye on that?

yes we learned for which patient we have to put a close eye on the input and output. but we just learned now that how much is one cup is or a cup of jello; and how we also calculate emesis, wound irrigation and all that. infact I should say they stressed on measuring weight and teaching patients to measure their weight for kidney, CHF,...patients.

I'm also worried about the ATI final predictor because I won't be able to take the NCLEX if I don't pass that, or i guess our director won't send the affidavit to BON unless we pass it..:madface:
