   SoulSearcherRN replied to SoulSearcherRN's topic in General Nursing

   The ileus story reminded me of taking care of a colostomy. I was always terrified when irrigating one that I would have an explosion and you know how bad those smell! Sounds to me like you have some...

   For those of you that would like to chat, maybe sometime we can meet up a chat room that isn't used much like, www.joehollywood.net at THE BANG or UPSTAIRS

   SoulSearcherRN replied to SoulSearcherRN's topic in General Nursing

   I would agree with your nursing instructor. Although sterile at first, urine doesn't stay sterile for long, from what I've been told. I believe it also has something to do with it hitting the air too....
