hi,im back! hehehe:chuckle well,think "Hotdog in a BUN"
(BUN)Blood Urea Nitrogen,is a by product of metabolism. An elevated BUN is a sign of dehydration,renal failure or GI bleeding. A key to remember the normal value of BUN level is to;
Think of the junk food thatmost people in the 8-20 y/o age group eat:hamburgers,hotdogs.Then associate it with hotdog buns and hamburger buns.Thus 8-20mg/dl is the normal BUN range.
well,it varies in different books...:roll
Mag Sulfate
(:Melody: Sung to the tune of "Achy,Breaky Heart")
Decreased BP,
Decreased Pee Pee,
These are toxic signs of Mag Sulfate.
Drop in respiratory rate,
Patellar reflex there ain't,
Give antidote calcium gluconate!
