  1. CRNA vs. anesthesiologist

    SuperSleeper replied to jermaughan0814's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Thank you, GASping, for an intelligent reply. I think most agree with the fact that not all MDAs can be lumped into the bad apple category. We all appreciate the schooling that MDs endure/aquire. As...

  2. NCP for patient with breathing difficulty

    SuperSleeper replied to Sad Hilly's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Going another direction: You may want to address the chest pain as the primary issue. Difficulty breathing can be caused by cardiac problems. This certainly does not mean that breathing problems don't...

  3. question regarding lab values

    SuperSleeper replied to s_le2006's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    In answer to your question: Yes. Both of these values can be traced to the dx of CHF. As I am sure you know, CHFers do not pump blood well and end up backlogged. Due to decreased hydrostatics,...

  4. Is this path to CRNA accepatble?

    SuperSleeper replied to benjaminlox's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    That path is just fine. In fact, it shows determination in goal attainment. The CRNA programs need you to have a BSN. They don't care how you got it (accredited, of course). Then, the ICU...

  7. What undergraduate minors should I consider?

    SuperSleeper replied to forchunet's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I did not minor, nor did any of my classmates. The focus of interest is on your nursing program. Your sciences come with your prereqs plus any you may have taken prior to nursing school. You are...

    SuperSleeper replied to TNSICU's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  10. How Does CRNA school and clinicals compare to RN school??

    SuperSleeper replied to LovePurple's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  13. Anyone recently accepted in UT (Chatt) CRNA program?

    SuperSleeper replied to TNSICU's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Jeesh. The originally chosen got some time. I won't know about finances until I find out if they want me. But, they'll just want to know immediately. That's a $1000 gamble for me. *sigh* Nuttin's...

  14. Anyone recently accepted in UT (Chatt) CRNA program?

    SuperSleeper replied to TNSICU's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Thanks for the heads-up DeDe. Congrats on the call! Did they give you a timeline for a confirmation or denial, like two weeks or so? Have you already been accepted to your other school? Go with...

    SuperSleeper replied to SuperSleeper's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I'm number 2 on the alternate list. I'm in "little georgia town", too. I would call and ask them if I were you. I agree about the getting to know the candidate aspect of your complaint. It's not...

    SuperSleeper posted a topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I have an interview at UTChat on Friday and the closer it gets the more UNintelligent I'm feeling. It's a control thing, I know. I am a great type-A nurse for it, though. I just have a hard time not...

    SuperSleeper replied to jbp0529's topic in CCU, Coronary, Cardiac

    I've had days like that in my CVICU. We are superhuman... .apparently....as nurses. I never had a lung transplant, but I pulled an extra at night once (I'm on days) and had a type I aortic...
