Verified ownerIt is simple straight to the point . Many good diagnostics and txt however I expected at least some major heart rhythms to be included, I donāt see why that has to be separate. Thatās what tele is about. But overall very useful quick info and solutions
Verified ownerI canāt speak if these work for a getting a job yet but just buying the flashcards and looking at what they say, wow!!! Thereās so much helpful information and from glancing at all of them, thereās questions I never would have guessed would be asked. So much good info has been put on these. Will add another review after my next interview! Thanks so much Hailey!
Verified ownerI have purchased several of these cheat sheets and love every single one of them. They are very well organized. Highly recommend
I recently purchased an ER cheat sheet, and I canāt recommend it enough! Itās an incredibly helpful tool for anyone working in the Emergency Department. The cheat sheet is well-organized and covers a wide range of topics, including medications, assessment protocols, and critical care guidelines. The information is concise yet comprehensive, allowing me to quickly find what I need without wasting time. Itās especially useful for handling emergencies like trauma cases or cardiac issues, providing quick reminders on best practices.
Verified ownerShort and simple, straight to the most important details. Good for a new practicing RN

About Us
Hello there and thanks for stopping by! My name is Hailey, and I am the founder of RN New Grads! RN New Grads was developed in 2019 when I was a freshly graduated nursing student. I struggled to find a centralized resource that provided information on hospitals that accepted RN new grads or had RN New Grad Programs.
After countless hours of research, I composed a word document of all the RN New Grad Programs in Southern California. I thought, āIf I am having this problem, others must be too.ā So, I decided to create RN New Grads to help the job search easier for others. Since our inception, RN New Grads has grown into a comprehensive platform for all things nursing.

YES I promise I listen to you when you guys tell me what you need help on. DKA is a highly requested topic so I created the ultimate study aid for understanding Diabetic Ketoacidosis! This 6-page guide simplifies DKA, breaking down the pathophysiology, every symptom, treatment, and lab value to help you understand the ššµš behind each component. We cover everything from pathophysiology to critical interventions, to complications so youāll gain a complete grasp of this complex condition. Plus, a bonus quick-reference page is included to make last-minute reviews easy and efficient.ā£
ā£
š¦šš²š½ š: The cornerstone of DKA is insulin deficiency. A hormone vital for transporting glucose into cells, where it serves as a primary energy source. This deficiency prevents cells from absorbing glucose, causing glucose to accumulate in the bloodstream. Without insulin, the bodyās ability to absorb glucose is impaired leaving cells āhungryā for energy forcing the body to seek alternative pathways to fulfill itās energy needs. Without enough insulin, cells are unable to take in glucose, their main source of fuel.ā£
ā£
š¦šš²š½ š®: Ketone Production. Now, with insufficient insulin, The body turns to fat as an alternative energy source, breaking it down into ketones. It breaks down fat stores and releases free fatty acids (FFAs) into the bloodstream. The liver then converts these free fatty acids into ketone bodies which serve as alternative energy sources. Initially, the body can manage these ketones, but as insulin deficiency persists, their overproduction leads to ketosis, which leads to metabolic acidosis which we will go over in part 2.ā£

GI Cocktails in the ER! š
A GI cocktail is a mix of medications we use to relieve severe abdominal pain and GI symptoms quickly. Hereās a breakdown of whatās in it and why:
ā¢ Magnesium & Aluminum Hydroxide: These antacids help neutralize stomach acid, giving fast relief from heartburn.
ā¢ Viscous Lidocaine: Numbs the esophagus and stomach lining to reduce pain.
ā¢ Simethicone: Eases gas and bloating.
ā¢ Hyoscyamine Sulfate: Relaxes stomach muscles to decrease cramping.
ā¢ IV Pepcid: Blocks histamine to lower acid production and provide lasting relief.
Together, this combo can make a huge difference for patients experiencing GI distress. Have you used a GI cocktail in your practice? Let me know! š

Second degree heart block type 1, also known as Wenckebach or Mobitz 1, is a type of abnormal heart rhythm that affects the electrical conduction system of the heart. It is characterized by a progressive lengthening of the PR interval on an electrocardiogram (ECG) until a QRS complex is dropped. The PR interval is the time it takes for the electrical impulse to travel from the atria to the ventricles.ā£
ā£
In second-degree heart block type 1, there is a delay in the transmission of electrical signals through the AV node, leading to a progressive lengthening of the PR interval (the time it takes for the electrical impulse to travel from the atria to the ventricles). ā£
ā£
The characteristic pattern of second-degree heart block type 1 is as the electrical impulses repeatedly pass through the AV node, the PR interval progressively lengthens until one impulse fails to reach the ventricles, resulting in a ādropped beat.ā Following the dropped beat, the cycle begins again with a shorter PR interval and gradually lengthens until the next dropped beat occurs. This cyclic pattern of PR interval lengthening followed by a dropped beat is known as the Wenckebach phenomenon.ā£
ā£
Causes of second-degree heart block type 1 can vary and may include structural heart disease, medications (such as beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, or digoxin), myocardial ischemia (reduced blood flow to the heart muscle), or degeneration of the electrical conduction system. In some cases, it can occur transiently during sleep or as a physiological response to increased vagal tone (parasympathetic nervous system dominance).ā£
ā£
Treatment for second-degree heart block type 1 depends on the severity of symptoms. Asymptomatic cases may not require any specific intervention. For symptomatic individuals or those at risk of progression, treatment options may include medications, temporary or permanent pacemaker implantation, and addressing any underlying causes or contributing factors.ā£
