I have found that I keep seeing some information over and over again. Here are some of them....
- Hot spot questions (valve locations, Erb's point)
- troponin is best indicator of MI
- lots of questions on hypER/hypOthyroidism (surgery, tx, s/sx)
- theophylline (weird, i know, but i have had a question on it for pretty much every practice test), therapeutic levels are 11-20 mcg/mL
- platelet levels (150k-400k)
- i wasn't prepared for all of the insulin questions (duration, peak, onset)
- 1 oz=30mL and 1tsp=5mL
- ABG values
- I read on the allnurses forum "RNs don't delegate what they can EAT (Evaluate, Assess, Teach)"
- Aluminum: constipation, Magneium: diarrhea
Here is a link to random facts to study for the nclex.....
If you have any to add, put them in the comments section.
