  1. Neuro ICU patient population?

    Chaserr posted a topic in Neuro Intensive Care, ICU

    Out of curiosity, what kind of patients are seen in Neuro ICU? Most common

  2. Does it bother CRNA's that MDA's get so much more...?

    Chaserr replied to ICU, RN, BSN, B.S.'s topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Exactly

  3. Does it bother CRNA's that MDA's get so much more...?

    Chaserr replied to ICU, RN, BSN, B.S.'s topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    surely there are multiple factors in play here. If it was strictly same job - same outcomes - same pay, then we wouldn't see ACT practices today skewed towards MDA>CRNA income. The only place I see...

    Chaserr replied to ICU, RN, BSN, B.S.'s topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I understand why a MDA gets paid more than a CRNA even for the same job with the same outcomes across the board. I believe MDAs have different experiences and thus bring different views into practice...

    Chaserr replied to Betenhauser's topic in Men in Nursing

  7. Beard as a male nurse?

    Chaserr replied to Jarl Redbeard's topic in Men in Nursing

    I work in an ICU where all the men have some sort of beard and we wear the papr respirator with TB patients - NBD. Also if your institution can't provide a papr in a timely manner before you are...

  8. Never wanna take students again.

    Chaserr replied to remotefuse's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I know a nurse with gen med experience in orientation on a VERY busy neurosurgical ICU who has no ICU experience acting as a know-it-all who is facing termination because of it. It's a very dangerous...

  10. I made a big mistake

    Chaserr replied to Birdy2's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    What you SHOULD have done was requesting a STAT chest xray and worry about his pneumo getting larger or maybe an ABG to see if he was retaining CO2? SpO2 and pCO2 do not have an inverse...

  11. hiv and infections

    Chaserr replied to Toadd35's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    You realize it's quite difficult to get HIV from even a needle stick let alone having if be splashed on you. I wouldn't worry about it one

  12. Alteplase infusion for clotted port

    Chaserr replied to Cincinatti1978's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    I'm kind of at a loss for words. Indwelling TpA and infusing TpA and completely different therapies as mentioned above. if the clot is INSIDE of the port then there would be no facial swelling and...

    Chaserr replied to russianbear's topic in Patient Medications

    Well if she had itchy eyes and a puffy face obviously it could be a sign of an allergic reaction in which you are right to suggest benedryl because it shows your thought process and what you're...

  16. Does it bother CRNA's that MDA's get so much more...?

    Chaserr replied to ICU, RN, BSN, B.S.'s topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I believe a lot of people are misunderstood in this forum about the role of the CRNA and what the future holds. I believe it is a state by state basis, but there are CRNA independent groups to where...

  17. anybody from Minneapolis School of Anesthesia

    Chaserr replied to gwapo's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Chaserr replied to catamounts303's topic in MICU, SICU

    I have my BSN and associates in science. I did an organic chem class during my associates, do CRNA schools accept organic chem that's from 2 year school? Also, is there a time frame in which I would...
