I've always been interested in the fictional Illuminati...or are they!? And 88 is for the year I was granted entry into this wonderful world :)

Hi, Look into what physiological processes occur in hyperglycemia, what the body resorts to when glucose is not available for energy, and by products of amino acid breakdown. That should help you on the path :)

Heart failure is usually described as systolic and diastolic. To answer your first question, Diastolic heart failure is when the ability of the ventricles to relax and fill during diastole is impaired. When this is impaired, it results high filling p...

You need to stop comparing your level of intellectual competency with others; that is your first problem. If you have passed the first semester, that is a GREAT start because a lot of students do not so feel accomplished about that if you have passe...

I did read your post. I'm not disagreeing with you. But the point to my posts was in the case of a pt with an acute exacerbation of the disease, opoid analgesics are given IE. sickle cell crisis.

And in the case of the pt having a sickle cell crisis? From what I understand, narcotics are usually part of the treatment. So for the OP's situation, the prescribed PRN morphine would be given in a crisis.

I'd be sure that this program is accredited for you folks going into it. I've come to know people taking certain nursing programs to find out later that they cannot take their boards because they weren't accredited through the state.

With regards to the difference in the Rh factors, those with Rh factors being positive are also recipients to Rh negative. This cannot be said in those with an Rh factor being negative as they are recipients to only Rh negative. Maybe your classmat...

There's a lot of certificate programs out there. Medical assistant, PCT, CNA, Anaesthesia tech., hemodialysis tech., EKG tech. Etc.. Anything that shows you have had some direct patient care would def. make you stand out.

Try volunteering. It's a great way of getting into a hospital/clinical system. Although you wont be using your clinical skills, you can certainly gain reputation within the volunteer department and that could open up the door to a wealth of opportuni...

In what format is this question written as? Multiple choice or do you need to write out the answer? Either way, it seems like the stem of the question is asking what effects would the solution have on the body.

I had my hopes up of starting the program earlier then the estimated two year waitlist back in May of 2009. But no luck in that hope. It's been exactly two years and I just got my acceptance letter for the Spring/Summer.

What is it about clinicals that you don't like? Instructors? Students? Staff? Maybe patient care? It's your second semester you might as well finish the last few steps, you are so close! If ER sparked your interest then maybe nursing isn't the issue...

Calculations look good to me. Therapeutic range is in question since the minimum dosage is 200mg and 120mg is ordered...

If I'm reading it right, the med. is to be given every 8hrs over a 30min interval.

Most hospitals in my area will hire those in their first clinicals of Nursing school. I would check with the HR department at the hiring hospital and have them elaborate on whether if that would be an exception to not having a CNA licensure. Most wou...
