  2. R on T phenomenon

    RE Agent posted a topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    My patient in the GI lab came out to recovery with way to many PVC's, > 6/min. Some the PVC R waves fell right in the middle of the T wave. She did not have any cheat pain, and her b/p was fine....

  3. R on T phenomenon

  4. Substandard Healthcare d/t high Patient to nurse ratios

    RE Agent replied to shandy84's topic in General Nursing

    The truth, nothing is going to happen to fix the problem. Why? The powers that could fix the problem will never receive substandard care, nor will their families. The truth is, we little people who...

  5. Rookie RN - Serious Questions

    RE Agent replied to flashyrn2be's topic in General Nursing

    O.k this was covered school, I hope. Your instructor is full of it. Patients code, and you never see it coming. What state did you go to school

  6. Bedside surgery with no sedation

    RE Agent replied to Kiwi's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Why not give the meds before the procedure? A B/P in the 190's after a stroke is asking for trouble. Who can you report this doc to? I would not let this go unaddressed, and I would refuse to help...

  7. What's up with Human Resources

    RE Agent replied to payday's topic in General Nursing

    Good for you!!! That did go somewhere, and I'll bet it got attention. More nurses should be doing this kind of thing. If the patient is abusive, or their family call security. You can also call...

  8. What's up with Human Resources

    RE Agent replied to payday's topic in General Nursing

    I applied for a position at a certain hospital, had my interview, and agreed to take the position. Then along came HR. They were so rude, and the treatment was real bad. I changed my mind about...

  9. I miss the Navy Nurse Corps

    RE Agent posted a topic in Government, Military

    I encourage all nurses who can, and who are willing to join the military. I spent 10 years active duty in the navy, and one year in the reserves. I had to leave the reserves because I could no...

  10. Blatant Nursing "No-No's"........what's your worst???

    RE Agent replied to anndoodle's topic in General Nursing

    A nurse on shift with me, years ago had a diabetic patient who was a hard IV stick. The IV abx ran in very very slow, so this nurse decided to fill the IV bag with air, and place a B/P cuff around...

  11. Tenet Hospital

    RE Agent replied to Choircat's topic in General Nursing

    Get help for your emotions, and stick it to this guy. As long as you let your emotions rule you on this, justice will never be done. He will do it again, and again. Be strong and go for it. This...

  12. Intradermal lidocaine for IV starts

    RE Agent replied to hardworkingrn's topic in General Nursing

    EMLA cream is the best, but the waiting time can be a problem. Sometimes IV have to be started quickly. This is good for the peds patient. I've never seen a policy for lido use, we just used it,...

  13. Do I LOOK Like A Nurse To You?

    RE Agent replied to Haunted's topic in General Nursing

    Just poot, and blame it on them. Shame on

  14. Nurses and Defibrillation

    RE Agent replied to bobnurse's topic in General Nursing

    If the patient needs to be difibed, then do it. Just think if your family member, or you were the patient, and the nurse stood by waiting for the doc to get there. This is want nurses do, we save...

  15. Be-littling CRNA's

    RE Agent replied to forane2001's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Sounds like you work with some real unhappy people. It's not your fault, and they have to live with themselves. Don't tolerate it. If someone says something mean to you, tell them it's not nice to...

  16. Meet the Fockers

    RE Agent replied to MikeyBSN's topic in General Nursing

    The movie was great. I did not see the male nurse as being belittled. He delivered the baby, and it is good to see male nurses on T.V. As long as nurses think in the negative realm, then the...

    RE Agent replied to nursemid02's topic in LTC: Directors, Assistant

  19. Military vs. Civilian CRNA's

    RE Agent posted a topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    When I was in the navy nurse corps we used CRNA's for everything, and they were very independent. I have not worked with CRNA's in a very long time since in left the navy. I wanted to go to school...

  20. Do You Like Agency Nurses?

    RE Agent replied to Haunted's topic in General Nursing

    As nurses we should like any nurse that is willing to come into the hospital and help out. Things are not easy in the profession right now. We need to keep the nurses we have, and treat them

  22. I was punched

    RE Agent replied to Still Riding's topic in General Nursing

    Do not let this go. Nurses have been putting up with abuse for a vary long time, and most say nothing. Nurses keep quite because they don't want to lose their job, or not finish school. What a...
