LION pit?

[NurseNHowell]

I'm studying and keep seeing this pop up related to decels/pitocin. I can only assume its an acronym but I can't for the life of me figure out what it stands for.

Anyone knows and wanna share?

jesus I really should've been able to figure that one out lol. I did hate L&D though. Only because people are allowed to make such stupid choices. I just hated watching people make ridiculous choices that effected a baby's life. That and watching a circumcision is the one thing that can make me faint. I've done wound care for almost a decade. Worked in the ER seeing brains spilling out. Seeing a chest cracked open and a heart beating. Working subacute with sputum. All good! Seeing a baby strapped down and cut just I can't.

Thats my line. I know we all have something we can't handle and that mine.

Thank you for helping me with that acronym! My boards are monday so hopefully I get that question!
