The Eat Deplete Repeat Manifesto

Eat. Deplete. Repeat. The Manifesto By Eric Sartori This is dedicated to you and all of my friends in the timed eating, intermittent fasting, prolonged fasting and ketogenic community who have yet to reach your goal but refuse to give up. Your tenacity inspires me. May this new process deliver to you hope and the results your hard work deserves. Cheers!

Frank's sign is one of those outward signs that can point to some big problems. Think of it like the canary in the coal mine. Poor canaries!

Coronary Artery Disease and Risk for Stroke are both associated with the…

Nurse Eric - Bedside Skills Implementing A Fluid Restriction

"How can you allow me to become dehydrated like this? I feel like you are trying to kill me. I need my water."

Have you ever been a patient and felt like this? Have you ever had a patient who's said something like this? Are you looking for a better way to manage a fluid restriction? Let's do this!

Often Nurses have a patient with a fluid restriction (FR). With the fast pace of nursing care, and hearing out many unhappy, thirsty patients, I've noticed an opportunity for improvement.

Let's sum this up in SBAR form:

Situation - Patients often feel frustrated when a doctor orders a fluid restriction, especially later in the day when they have already consumed all or most of their daily limitations. In a situation of poor planning or implementation, patients can become frustrated and nurses are faced with either finding a way to help the patient cope with their feelings or begin to make exceptions to t…
