So, I'm and IR nurse and have a random weird question about paracentesis.

By

So, I have been doing this a few years and I see paras multiple times a day, everyday. We use a thickener in the fluid to make disposal a little neater. I'm hoping that's the norm as this question. Relies on knowledge of this process.

Normally the thickener disperses evenly in the fluid or settles to the bottom then spreads evenly. This time the thickening powder is floating on top and not breaking up or dissolving. It's so strange to see it. It looks like a floating layer of something.

Any guesses as to why? I've never seen it do this before.

I dont know the exact makeup of the powder.

Onetonline salary search change?

By
Did this change? I am having a hard time finding the same lists I saw 2 months ago. https://www.onetonline.org/link/summary/29-2034.00#AdditionalInformation https://www.onetonline.org/link/localwages/29-2034.00?st=OR&p=hourly I used to be able to see wage by area and sort it by state and see the differences per state and per city in every state. I can't seem to find this same list anymore. I can see a bell curve but I can't sort by state or wage or anything. Thanks! submitted by /u/xxDamnationxx [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/h9oqup/onetonline_salary_search_change/

Radiology program

By
I’m from New York looking to attend a Rad tech program. I work for Northwell and recently came across a flyer for John Patrick University. it is an online AS program with clinicals in person (which my job will allow me to do) It seems as if this program is not accredited by JCERT but the school is accredited by ACCSC. I reached out to the director of the school and also the arrt and they say that there would be no issue taking boards. I haven’t really heard of anyone going through online program so I wanted to make sure everything checks out. Since this was being advertised at work I couldn’t see why they would put something that wouldn’t be accepted out.
