Mission impossible? Educating an emergency nurse
1Upland and Darby, PA.
Abstract:
As an emergency nurse, finding time to familiarize oneself with arterial-line monitoring or a new piece of equipment is often impossible. A group of staff nurses recognized the need for more "hands-on" learning and pursued a method to make our education more meaningful. A hospital general nursing skills day offered little benefit to ED nursing staff who are tasked with more specialized skills. It was imperative to develop an efficient process to prepare the ED nurses to provide best practice and care to their patients.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Ventilation Perfusion Scans are two radiological investigations that offer detailed diagnostic images of the body, particularly lung structures.
MRI
MRI uses magnetic fields and radiofrequency signals to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissues. This technology provides a more detailed diagnostic image than CT scans, enabling it to characterize pulmonary nodules, stage bronchogenic carcinoma, and evaluate inflammatory activity in...
