One wild night

Posted on October 02, 2008 in Antibiotic

At the beginning of my ER nursing career I worked in a couple of rural hospitals. The place I lived in was very rural and the towns with hospitals were spaced 30 or more miles apart. There was no such thing as diversion, you just dealt with what you got. Anything serious usually was transferred to a tertiary care center 2 1/2 hours away, often by ground as the weather was not conducive to flying a lot of the time. It was the 3 - 11 shift in our ten-bed ER. We were staffed with three RN's. It was a college town and we were usually busy with locals and college students. The ER was packed that night. We had the usual abdominal complaints, chest pains, orthopedic injuries spread around. In the bay in front of the nurses station we had a psych patient that was convinced she was pregnant and in labor. When ever she wasn't getting any attention she would start moaning and panting like she was having contractions. Never a dull moment. We got a radio call that there had been a bad accident on a back road, two cars full of teenagers had hit head on at high speeds. Two were dead at the scene and they were bringing us the other 5. Five traumas in an ER staffed with one doc and three nurses! Yikes! Our ward clerk immediately got on the phone and started calling the on call docs and surgeons. It was bad, all five had serious injuries. Two of them obviously had bad head injuries. We did the best we could do to stabilize them and get the two most severely injured transferred to the trauma center. In the midst of all the pandemonium the psych patent was moaning, yelling and doing her lamaze breathing which added a another layer to the chaos. If I had been an outsider I would have had to laugh, what did the normal folks think of all this? Only in the ER. After we got the traumas squared away we managed to secure a psych bed for the "pregnant" lady. By then the shift was over. No breaks, no dinner, not even time to pee. Ah....the life of an ER nurse.

Student wants monkey released from UMC

Posted on October 02, 2008 in Diabetes erectile dysfunction

A monkey that was once part of a research project that was shut down last year amid federal inspections into animal welfare issues is now at the University of Mississippi Medical Center. "The monkey is in excellent health," UMC said in a written statement. "Like all animals owned by the Medical Center, he receives daily care by a well-trained veterinary staff." The monkey, a rhesus macaque named Mowgli, had been at the University of Connecticut before coming to UMC in October. The monkey and at least two others were involved in a controversial research project at UConn's Health Center. The other monkeys are dead. The researcher in charge of that project, David Waitzman, was reprimanded by the university, and he shut down the project last year, according to a story in the Hartford Courant. Those actions came as the U.S. Department of Agriculture found violations in the lab. Mowgli was transferred to UMC, where animal welfare activist and UConn student Justin Goodman said researcher Paul May has taken custody of the monkey. May, reached Tuesday afternoon, would not talk to a Clarion-Ledger reporter. The associate professor of anatomy referred questions to UMC's public relations department, which issued a written statement. Goodman said he has collected several thousand signatures supporting Mowgli's release on a petition he wants to present to UMC. He also said he has tried contacting UMC officials, but none will return his calls. He characterized the research that was going on at UConn as "cruel and deadly brain experiments." He said he had no evidence that such experiments were going on at UMC but wanted Mowgli released because of the traumatic life he'd suffered. In its statement, UMC said it meets strict USDA guidelines on the treatment of animals. Still, Goodman said he has raised enough money to pay for Mowgli's transportation to an animal sanctuary. "It doesn't cost anything to let him go," he said. Story here . monkeys Labels: monkey, research, student
