  1. What's you highest...?

    kevagonia replied to talaxandra's topic in General Nursing

    glucose of zero. I believe the pt was not on regular glu checks, but the chem 7 from the morning showed a zero, they called us, se confirmed with fingerstick, then she coded and died minutes later.

  2. any info about baptist hospital

    kevagonia replied to rainarn2's topic in Tennessee Nursing

    Hey, sorry for what you're going through, obviously. But you did make a statement about all of the nurses at Baptist. And my blood pressure statement was fair as well. No one's pressure runs that...

  3. What is your policy/procedure for drawing blood for PTT from Central line....

    kevagonia replied to nursenatalie's topic in MICU, SICU

    I'm interested in knowing the real data about this issue. I can certainly see how a peripheral stick would be better policy, but that's just an assumption. Anyone know of a study? It is not in our...

  4. any info about baptist hospital

    kevagonia replied to rainarn2's topic in Tennessee Nursing

    I find it very difficult to believe that your blood pressure was not taken for two days, and even tougher to believe that you're qualified to make statements about "all" of the nurses at Baptist. As...

    kevagonia posted a topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I am interested in applying for MSN in Anesthesia over the next one-two year period and would like some help regarding admission criteria. I graduated from BSN in 2002. I am specifically interested...

  6. Scary doctors!!!

    kevagonia replied to LadyBugLass's topic in General Nursing

    I disagree that speaking about these things is "bad for morale'. It's free speech, can actually be constructive. Think of relatively new nurses like myself who sometimes don't know the difference...

    kevagonia replied to alatta58's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    woah! not good. it matters to him, he;s just willing to settle, maybe? Hey, i work hard for my overtime and consider it a MAJOR affront that someone would rob us of this. If they take it, I WILL not...

  9. Raunchy advertisement

    kevagonia replied to Repat's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    hmm... I dont see the big deal. schoolteachers and nurses are hot. It's an ad. It will do nothing for our image, one way or another. Anyone who's looking at Sketchers ads basically wouldn't affect...

  10. I'm starting to hate ICU nurses

    kevagonia replied to Mayflye's topic in MICU, SICU

    I hear you. I am an ICU nurse and have broken the ice pretty well, but they're no different here. First of all, who cares about their opinion, the bottom line? They're jealous. They're jealous that...

  11. Scary doctors!!!

    kevagonia replied to LadyBugLass's topic in General Nursing

    well, this guy's basically a walking breach of ethics. a creepy bible-thumping sort of fanatic that has actually overridden DNR orders and then admitted ot the ICU on vent/pressors and re-written...

  12. Scary doctors!!!

    kevagonia replied to LadyBugLass's topic in General Nursing

    once I took care of a patient I had a bad feeling about, re: what we were supposed to be doing with them (nearly brain dead). the middle of the day comes around, and we are dialyzing this patient. a...
