Crazy story

Some information is not to 2026 standards…. Colonoscopy should be at age 45. Transfuse blood if hemoglobin is less than 7 unless they have a cardiac history/orthopedic surgery then hemoglobin of 8 is acceptable for transfusion.

Using this as part of my NCLEX review. Great physical assessment reference. Portable and comes with me to work along with my Mosbys drug book. I wish I was a walking encyclopedia but I'm not... :)
