1st - Airway- Esophageal Atresia is a medical emergency

2nd- Pyloric stenosis-is important but the other is more ER

3rd- PKU patient one day old...

I am really trying to think what is something that NCLEX would ask......Ok I know...What name the 12 cranial nerves and what you would be assessing with each....Its been a while since I have done this, so it should be a good refresher....
