Imagine you are on a night out in the city and decide to go wild in a pricey night club, suffering an svt episode due to doing copious amounts of cocaine and alcohol and your friend drives you to the hospital. There they do an ablation... declaring it as an emergency surgery but it destroys your heart's conductive system instead. You end up with burned valves and a stunned right ventricle.... "Their rhythm is always fucked up when they come out of surgery. That's why keep them here with us in the CVICU." But why are you so pale? Why does your pulse throb all odd, a meek irregular pulsing instead of a strong regular one?
I would wake up terrified out of my mind as my heart barely beats. Perhaps a doctor in the CVICU takes an interest in this poor, battered heart of mine

I just switched to pediatric cvicu from adult cvicu and the amount of baby cuddles is just 馃ス like a lot of our kids are tinys still and have open chests but when they get extubated they just wanna be held so I鈥檒l just hold them and chart it鈥檚 the best part of my day. I like have to keep myself on track sometimes because I just wanna hold them and comfort them lmao
HEYYY I REMEMBER YOU ANON YOU WERE THINKING ABOUT (OR JUST HAD SWITCHED) TO PEDS CVICU A FEW MONTHS AGO RIGHT? IM GLAD YOURE LIKE IT!!

Hey, sweet tumblr friends and followers!
I was debating on sharing this publicly, but then I realized I wanted to keep people I interact with in the know.
Life has a funny way of getting your attention; for me, it was waking up in pain, and within a few short hours, I was admitted into the CVICU. Gah, that sounds so dramatic, and sure, in the moment, it was a very scary experience. But please know: I am fine, I am getting stronger every day, and the best news, my heart is strong (I was just stressing it out a bit).
I don't tell you all of this to make anyone worry or to seek some kind of weird attention. I wanted to share this info for 2 reasons:
1. Eep! Please forgive me! I can already hear some of y'all saying, "don't be sorry!", but seriously: I am so very behind on reblogs, responding to DMs and Asks. I'm asking if y'all can please be patient and gracious as I attempt to catch up (and it's quite possible that I won't). If I have overlooked you, please know it was not intentional.
2. I'm back! I know, I know... it really hasn't been that long, but it's been a long 2 weeks for your girl. 馃槣 I'm finally feeling like myself again, and I even opened up my docs yesterday, so my hope is to start interacting with y'all again this week.
I love and miss y'all dearly! Thank you so much for your understanding! 馃枻

Exciting news I wanted to share since you鈥檙e a NICU rn :) I accepted a new job in a very prestigious CVPICU ppl fly from all over the world to have their heart operated on there!!! (It鈥檚 mostly babies and some kids waiting for new hearts! I was feeling so drained being in adult CVICU and now I feel so excited and like a new nurse again I start in a few weeks ! Plus I get to wear any color scrubs I want I鈥檓 thinking pink 馃ぃAny tips for transitioning to caring for babies? Hope you have a happy weekend!!!
AHHHH THAT'S SO EXCITING!!!!!! IM SO HAPPY FOR YOU :)
I'VE ONLY EVER TAKEN CARE OF BABIES BUT I GUESS THE BIGGEST THING IS THAT THEY CAN'T TELL YOU WHAT'S WRONG SO YOU REALLY HAVE TO GUESS!! IT'S A LOT OF TRIAL AND ERROR, AND A LOT OF CRYING AND FIGURING OUT IF ITS BECAUSE THEY'RE WET, THEY WANT TO CUDDLE, OR IF ITS JUST ALL AROUND THEY DON'T FEEL GOOD BUT A CRYING BABY IS A BREATHING BABY WHICH IS WHAT YOU WANT!!
THE LEVEL OF CARE YOU'LL BE DOING WOULD BE HIRE THAN ANYTHING I'VE DONE SO I CANT REALLY GIVE YOU TIPS AS FAR AS HEART KIDS BUT I WISH YOU THE BEST OF LUCK!

So I鈥檝e been a new nurse like and grand total of 4mos. I鈥檓 on a cardiac step down unit, but I was in the cvicu for about month but decided to downgrade to pcu cuz my facility鈥檚 icu was very intense and too much for a new grad. Anyway, the more I鈥檓 on the floor, the more I realize that I don鈥檛 care to have long term relationships with my patients and I鈥檓 thinking of doing cath lab at some point. The only thing that concerns me is being on call cuz I live like 40 - 50 min away from my job depending on how heavy traffic is and I being called and then having to work your scheduled shift can be a doozy.
Answering this super late I鈥檓 sorry but omg hey new grad! 馃挀
I鈥檓 coming up on a year of being new surgical tech and I totally feel you on trying to figure out the areas that fit you and also just what you鈥檙e willing and able to do and give. It鈥檚 so good to have an early idea of those things like what level of patient interaction and care do you want to have, the level of intensity for where you鈥檙e at, your hours, all of that yep!
A lot of the OR nurses I work with have said they went from working on the floor to going to cath lab and stuck with it for a long time and liked it so it probably would be a good fit for you. Being on call does make things kinda iffy sometimes I totally get why you have worries about it, I live a good 25 minutes away from the hospital I work at and I really do be cutting that 30 minute call back time soooo close sometimes
And yes being called and then having to work your shift after can be rough, that鈥檚 happening to me only once and I did get a few hours knocked off my shift so I could rest and then come back in just later but I was still like ~recovering~ lol so I absolutely understand the hesitation. Depending on how often you鈥檇 even have to be on call and whether you鈥檇 be taking evening call or overnight call there may be some flexibility though so you never know! It. may be doable if you feel it鈥檚 right, rooting for you whatever the outcome is!

I'm working in the neuro ICU this week (and next) and y'all, I may have found my people ... I like the busyness of CVICU and how much you have to know, but I really enjoy this patient population
did I just become a neuro nurse???
