    Although I do have a question, on the neuro chart, there's only space for 1 pupil size. So do I chart the before or after size?

    • @NurseMinder
      @NurseMinder  3 года назад +2

      It is usually the before, and then there might be a place where you note they are reactive

    Where I’m from we use PEARL “pupils equal and reactive to light”

    • @NurseMinder
      @NurseMinder  11 месяцев назад +1

      So you miss the “round” and reactive - how do you define shape of pupils?

    • @Honestly_take_the_hint
      @Honestly_take_the_hint 11 месяцев назад

      @@NurseMinder we denote deformities and damage of the pupil separately. The PEARL is the basic assessment, but the roundness and and pupil damage is addressed depending if ocular damage has occurred or if it’s a genetic defect we review and assess it independently as the prime purpose of pearl is a base line.

    Thank you for posting this!!! Surprisingly a lot of nurses assess the eyes differently and there is some discrepancy on how to properly do this neuro exam! If there is only one option for pupil size, is it more appropriate to record and report pupil size with room light or direct light with pen light? Thanks!

    • @NurseMinder
      @NurseMinder  2 года назад +4

      Typically we report the size pre light, and then you will note they were reactive and equal to light in your notes

  • @priyankachakraborty6496

    • @NurseMinder
      @NurseMinder  3 года назад +3

      Yes you can do that. Over time you will get comfortable just looking at them and sizing them

    @SamSam-ke9zy 2 года назад +2

    I'm so frustrated with accommodation in charting. For 1 it's locked in with all the others as an all or none and 2 I can say it's charted more than 99% of the tjme without ever being checked. And worst of ALL is 90%+ of the nurses don't know what it really is.

    • @NurseMinder
