Anyone else feel like they can't get through a case without spending half the time answering pages? Today I did an operative laparoscopy for a ruptured ectopic and I was on the phone for most of the case with the floor and OB triage. The attending even asked me to call a lady at home...she was 6 mo. pregnant and having spotting and pressure. I felt really stuck...it's not like you can just ignore them...one page was about a lady with a BP of 78/45! But on the other hand, I'm the nurse for the patient in the OR, not the secretary for the doctor. I know I should just put it on speakerphone and stop relaying information and orders back and forth, but the docs all seem to get really annoyed when I put the phone on seaker and sometimes it is hard to hear. AHHH make it stop! My perfect OR would be one with no pagers!
