  1. I am a RN working with an Agency. For the last 2 weeks I have been getting cancelled. They say it is always slow in the summer. Is anyone else having this problem. I work Baton Rouge/New Orleans. I am really thinking about travel nursing. Any advice would be helpful. A little background: I am a single mom with a 16 year old son, just purchased a home. So I am getting a little worried about work. Thanks.
  2. It is a rhythm that occurs when there is a fast, strong stimulus from an ectopic focus above the ventricles and belw the SA node and the heart conducts every beat. rate 150-250 bpm. Example: It can result from inadequate refilling time, similar to squeezing a sponge fast under water and never allowing it to open or fill completely. This can result in low blood pressure and a person's heart cannot sustain this thythm for long because the muscle itself gets tired. This comes from a book entitled "Flip and See ECG" very, very simple to understand things using this book. I hope this helps. I am Linda, Cardiac Nurse. To make even more visual think of the water as your SA node, the sponge as the inside of the ventricles and your hand is the ectopic focus causing the water not to communicate with the sponge, since the ectopic focus is below the SA node you doing your job by firing and because you do not get a answer from the ventricles you start firing a faster response but no matter how hard you work that hand does not let the ventricles fill up instead it just squeezes harder so after awhile your hand gets tired.
