I’ve been retired for 11 yrs after practicing for 38 yrs. came across this video and thought, oh, I already know all about IV fluids. Well…..mind blown! Amazing how much I’d forgotten. Thank you for your presentation. Next up ACLS review! Wish me luck. My first ACLS course was in 1986,
On my 6th month being an ICU nurse and this channel has been such a godsend for me. Thank you!
It's definitely the best critical care related channel on YouTube. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us for free!
I've been an ICU nurse for 1 year now, and it's amazing the amount of things you learn everyday staying in the ICU This video served as a great brush up on my info, and I was surprised by some of the info in it highly appreciate it thank you you just gained a new subscriber
I just had an exam on this content in nursing school and wish I would have came across your channel prior to it. FINALLY a video on IV fluids that MAKES SENSE!
Only a CNA student, but holy cow are these videos amazing! I want to become an ICU nurse, learning this stuff now is going to be so helpful! Keep it up!
Just came across this awesome channel. Have two pediatric Type 1 diabetics and an adult son with Type 1. We live a very rural life and knowing about fluid relationships is critical for us.
Wonderful video. I am a Med/Surge nurse but always had questions about the fluids and why one is chosen over the other and why at a certain speed. I would ask the doctors, some we nice and keen to help, but mostly they didn't wanna help. I am appreciative for the video that did answer some of my questions.
Thank you so much for your videos -- I just landed a dream position in lv1 Trauma ICU and your videos are absolutely wonderful. They're packed full of juicy info without the ridiculous amount of product placement that is pervasive on other nursing channels <_>. I love your teaching style - you keep everything well-paced and for someone with audio processing issues (thanks ADHD <3), your voice is so clear and I don't have to "work" to decipher what you're saying. Thank you again!!!
I have been managing critically ill neonates, this information has empowered me more.
Thank you so much for putting up quality nursing content!!! When I had my orientation in the ICU, the nurses didn’t give me a chance. I barely learned anything. They made me feel dumb. After watching your channel for weeks now, it all makes sense. I wish you had been my preceptor when I was a new nurse!! Thank God for senior nurses like you.
By far the best video explaining fluids I have ever seen. Thank you so much!
Nice. NS is iso-osmotic in patients plasma water, which is the compartment that counts. Heavy in chloride, but you need to give about 4 liters to start to see that. I use LR generally as NS is a weak acid, but it has it's uses...a liter or two hurts no one, and for metabolic alkalosis, it's the charm! Cheers!
Thank You! I have linked my entire 4th Semester Nurse fellow students to your videos! So simple, straightforward and succinct! (I find myself going back over the same material several times so that I can basically memorize it!)
This is the best lecture about fluid types ever. I understood every single word, appreciate your efforts !
You explain difficult topics so clearly. Good job! Can’t wait to watch all your videos. I’ve been an ICU nurse for 26 years. Wish we had your videos when I was starting out. You’re really helping a lot of anxious new ICU nurses. Thank you for your efforts.
I am new in liver transplant ICU and this video now helped me to clear all the doubts 😍😍
I really appreciate these videos. I will be starting my nurse residency in the step down ICU in July and a lot of this I learned my first semester in 2020. Nice to have a refresher.
4th year US medical student here. Just came across your content, excellent work!
