Anyone Up For Random FACT THROWING??
Here are my 5 facts: 1) +3 pulses are considered normal in children (unlike +2 in adults) 2) Diabetes insipidus--> you pee a lot; SIADH--> you don't pee a lot 3) Most common cause of SIADH is lung cancer 4) Lowest score possible on the Glasgow Coma Scale is 3 5) With total hip replacement, always use abduction (never adduction) and do not let the patient cross their legs (to prevent dislocation)
