Had in the seminar the other week the discussion about nursing common conditions and the way that they should be managed.
I was refuted for suggesting that enteric (sugar) coated aspirin should be considered in patient who was on aspirin by another [gobby] student who was all for suggesting a member of the medical team prescribe a proton pump inhibitor such as Lanzoprazole or Ranitadine. I may be wrong here, but as the sugar coating means reduced risk of gastric irritation, surly it is better [holistically thinking] that the patient has to take one small tablet rather then two: One small and the bullets which pass as P.P.I's.
"He who shouts the loudest gets heard". Yes, but if he who is shouting is sprouting mis-informed hot air simply because they ALWAYS have to be giving the answer and like nothing better then listening to the sound of their own voice, surly this is not the best thing of an alleged "Team" effort.
