A significant portion of Acute Coronary Syndrome patients have few ECG changes. They are diagnosed based largely on positive enzymes and those aggressively treated early have much better outcomes.

In an effort to not prolong achieving the Register Nurse (RN) profession I would say, "Think community college first." That is unless you really want to pursue the Bachelors in Nursing (BSN) directly. Still, I'll assume for the time being you are interested in progressing to the RN in the shortest time frame. Each school has different requirements. What I will do is give a general (not specific) idea of what you will need. Many community colleges offer a LPN to RN Completion Program. Typically, the general education courses you will need at the associates degree level particular to the RN program are as follows: * English Composition I and II * General Psychology * Child Psychology ( unless Developmental Psychology is prescribed by the college) * Principles of Sociology * Humanities electives (possibly two) * Human Anatomy and Physiology I and II * Microbiology * Chemistry for Allied Health I would strongly recommend that you complete all the general education courses first before starting the professional phase courses in nursing. Today, there are vast numbers of individuals applying for RN programs. In comparison to all those who start the program, very few graduate. One the major contributing factors for failure to achieve is attempting to combine professional phase courses with general education courses. It's just too much for most individuals to handle. When you start your clinical courses, that's all you want to concentrate on. That being said, most colleges will require you finish the general education courses anyway. After completion of these courses, the college should grant you approximately 20 credits toward your RN from your LPN licence. Some of the introductory nursing courses will be waived. Thus, the program will be somewhat different than the generic program. It will also take less time to complete the RN requirements. As stated before, each college may have a different approach, but here are some issues the institution will be concerned about. * Where you took your LPN program (college or other institution) * Any general education courses that have been completed (if at a college) * Accreditation of college * Grades received and grade point average (if taken at a college) Warning!! Always take your course work at a regionally accredited college. I would not recommend taking your course work through a hospital school of nursing. This could very well have a negative affect later should you decide to pursue your BSN, or any other college degree at the bachelors' level in terms of transfer credit. Check with your home county community college first, and inquire about the RN completion program (they may call it something different). If they do not offer it, then try some of the surrounding counties as well. I hope this helps some.

They are several types of nursing diagnosis images available. They also vary depending on the topic which are pain assessment and care plans. You can find some of these on nursing websites and also by purchasing a book on amazon.

the nurse that gets paid the most is the LPN

About $25000fjd per annum,depending on which field...acute,general,intensive care etc etc

Virginia A. Henderson (1897-1996) earned the title "foremost nurse of the 20th century." She is compared to Florence Nightingale, in regards to her contributions, because of their far-reaching effects on national and international nursing communities.

Mechanical ventilation is ordered for patients in acute respiratory distress, and is often used in an intensive care situation. In some cases, mechanical ventilation is a final attempt to continue the breathing function in a patient.
Mechanical ventilation may be required only at night, during limited daytime hours, or around the clock, depending on the patient's condition. Some patients require mechanical ventilation only for a short period,

It is the act of taking care to a person-healthy or sick- physically and emotionally.

i thought it would be an allergic reaction to Vancomycin?

If you got shot in the shoulder and the bullet wound was not treated properly, you would have to walk with the cane. Possibly for the rest of your life maybe just a few week or a couple of months.

There are many types of businesses nurses can open. One example of a business is starting a CNA school. CNAs are in big demand and CNA schools make a lot of money. I teach at a CNA school and the owner makes over $8000 per money!

Anyone can open the school but you must have a RN over the program, and LPN/RN teaching the classes. There are a lot of regulations to starting a CNA school.

Type your answer here... My regular nurse always seems very happy when she tells me to pull down my pants and bend over for a shot.

I always label the sample container in front of the patient and check their details at the same time, to ensure correct patient - correct sample

It is not an MD. An MD is a medical doctor. Nurse practitioners have a masters, or doctorate in nursing.

Elevate the head of the bed.

Nurses should be caring, sympathetic, responsible, and detail oriented. They must be able to direct or supervise others, correctly assess patients' conditions, and determine when consultation is required. They need emotional stability to cope with human suffering, emergencies, and other stresses.
