Trouble in Texas: Tort Reform and Loss of Rights By Pat Iyer @avoidmederrors @patiyer #nurseup #nursefriendly

Trouble in Texas: Tort Reform and Loss of Rights By Pat Iyer @avoidmederrors @patiyer #nurseup #nursefriendly:"The leg pain Connie Spears felt was excruciating and familiar. She’d had blood clots before, and doctors had installed a filter in one of her heart’s main veins. At a Christus Santa Rosa hospital in San Antonio, where Mrs. Spears sought help the Friday before Memorial Day, the emergency room doctor ran some tests and discharged her with “bilateral leg pain.” He told her to follow up with her primary-care physician.

Three days later, Mrs. Spears was delirious and her legs were the color of red wine when she called 911 and was transported to a different hospital in the area. Doctors determined that her vein filter was severely clotted and had led to tissue death in her legs, as well as kidney failure."

#Trauma #Patient, In #Shock And In Decline, ER #Physician Does Not Transfer: #nursefriendly #Casestudy:"When a patient from a trauma scene arrives at the hospital, initial assessments and evaluations are critical. In this case, a patient involved in a Motor Vehicle Accident was brought in with symptoms indicative of Shock. On evaluation the decision was made to treat the patient on site. The patient then would die soon after admission. Should the ER physician have transferred her?
The female patient was transported to the hospital via ambulance following a motor vehicle accident."

Obesity in Nurses Linked to ‘Adverse Work Schedules’ Released: 8/3/2012 #obesity #obese #nursing #nurseup #nursefriendly

Obesity in Nurses Linked to ‘Adverse Work Schedules’ Released: 8/3/2012:”For nurses who work long hours or other “adverse work schedules,” the risk of obesity is related to lack of opportunity for exercise and sleep, suggests a study in the August issue of Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, the official publication of the American College of Occupational and Environmental Medicine (ACOEM).

Alison M. Trinkoff, ScD, RN, and colleagues of University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, analyzed data on more than 1,700 female nurses. The study focused on factors related to obesity in nurses with “adverse work schedules”— long hours, high work burden, required on-call/overtime, and/or lack of rest.

Obesity-related factors were compared for approximately 700 nurses meeting these criteria versus 1,000 nurses with more favorable work schedules. About 55 percent of nurses in both groups were overweight or obese.”

Nurse fired after online comments about fatality, August 01, 2012, #yuma #arizona #nurseup #nursefriendly

Nurse fired after online comments about fatality, August 01, 2012:"A nurse's social media comment blaming the victim of a fatal collision between an ambulance and motorcycle ignited a storm of online anger that led to her dismissal Tuesday from Yuma's hospital.

Nurse Angela Gusta commented on YumaSun.com that the deceased, Todd McIntire, was at fault when his motorcycle struck an ambulance making a U-turn Sunday on Highway 95.

Officials with Yuma Regional Medical Center, responding to numerous furious online responses, announced Tuesday via its own social media comment that Gusta's contract with the hospital had been terminated."
