  1. NBCRNA and the AANA... WOW!

    Got this in my email.. since I am not a member of the AANA I do not know where this is coming from. Is the AANA's panties in a wad over the recertification plan? I think the recert plan is karma for the assenine DNP push. If this works out, CRNA's wi...
  2. OG tubes......

    I have noticed a trend in new CRNA graduates.....Everyone gets an OG tube... Do any CRNAs here put an OG or NG tube into EVERYONE? If you do.. why?
  3. Difficulty of CRNA school

    I'm speaking of an undergrad GPA..Cs WILL get you into a program...Florida and Texas come to mind...What you get as a GPA in CRNA school is an arbitrary number.. The Puppy Mills will pass you regardless of you aptitude.

  7. Isoflurane possibly better than ECT for refractory depression

    Dr Miller disagrees with you...Volatile anesthetics are all bronchodilators, but some controversy remains about which volatile anesthetic exerts the most potent bronchodilation. In many studies using animal models, it appears that halothane has th...
  8. Are NP online degree frowned upon?

    I thought you were a CNS not an NP.
  9. Did being unattractive hurt your career?

    You're kidding, right? I would LOVE to have a sugar momma take care of me.....
  10. Why do you visit allnurses.com?

    To amuse myself... This place is funnier than The Onion!!!
  11. Did being unattractive hurt your career?

    The sad fact is. If you are an unattractive female.. it's like being a guy... you are just going to have to work for the rest of your life.
  12. Difficulty of CRNA school

    CRNA school is really no harder than any science degree.. It is, however and order of magnitude more difficult than a BSN. In a BSN you waste an inordinate number of hours learning worthless stuff like nursing diagnoses, nursing theory, professional ...
  13. So THAT would account for a LOT in the VA health system..
  14. I wonder why there is an Association Of Veterans Affairs Nurse Anesthetists.
  15. SOOOO HOT AT WORK!!

    Why would you not put a pregnant woman in an isolation room?
  16. Out of Work Nurse

    Quit being reasonable, logical, thoughtful and well informed.. You will make heads conservative explode.
  17. Out of Work Nurse

    A more likely scenario is MORE nurses will be needed to take care of all the people who will now be getting health care.
  18. Tattoos are taboo at work. Yes? No?

    We have a few doctors with sleeve tattoos. It does not diminish their skills one iota.
  19. Isoflurane possibly better than ECT for refractory depression

    We were discussing this study the other day when I was doing ECTs..The future of ECT might be non electric but magnetic. The one problem I see about the Iso is I have seen practitioners who have never used it!.. Ketamine is showing real promise as an...

    What's a "Bong"?
  21. Funny things patients say !

    I woke a young gangbanger up from anesthesia for a.. you guessed it.. GSW. and he became quite combative attempting to pull out his A line, IJ cordis and NG tube which I had so thoughfuly put in him.. Reasoning with him was worthless and he was fi...
  22. A little too proud to be a nurse?

    I think what you meant the title to be was "A little too proud of being a nurse..." Syntax is everything.
  23. Keeping Trauma nurses employed

    Teen drivers and motorcycle riders are my bread and butter in trauma anesthesia...Keep texting while driving kids.. I want some overtime.
  24. Was 41 when I graduated... BUT.. 20 years ago SRNAs were treated differently....Can't say it was nothing I could not easily handle. Being old in stressful situations can have it's advantages.
  25. Should this stop me from being an RN

    Find another line of work...We do not need any more nurses who are " Grossed Out" by aspects of the job involved in personal care of sick people...
