I don't know why instructors on KZbin are 10x better than the one I pay for in school.

[@avagarcia2900]

Agreed! Lol

[@deborahbeaupre3340]

100% agree!

[@kmina9972]

Agree, God bless these kind people

I wish I had a nursing educator like you . Beautifully explained.

[@joshieeats376]

Why is an increase of serum lipase, amylase indicative of pancreatitis when the enzymes are trapped in the pancreas? Thank you for the video.

[@sobiakhurram4955]

Dr. Lupica you are the best! A gift for us nursing students. Simple and to the point. Much appreciated

[@zbrown02]

Sobia Khurram yes she is great

[@orianadiazmoffa]

what binds to calcium that brings down serum levels?

[@gaillupica9187]

Lipids

[@damsbb2440]

Good Question

[@JeffreyOsb]

You are correct about the one who explained the pain to you, I was a soldier for six years and have had many "pains" in my life but pancreatitis was by far, the worst. My enzyme levels were around 5,400.

[@MashiroRedo]

is it always severe? I have all these symptons but it's not severe just discomfort. I plan to go to the doctor, but currently on contract atm =(

[@AngelaAlexander-b7m]

Thanks fot the video. You stated we give morphine for pancreatitis but I thought it was contraindicated? I may be wrong but please feel free to educate me.

[@kmina9972]

Thank you so much for this video! And frankly, all of you others. They're short and to the point. Agree with other people, you have a gift ! Please make more videos for nursing

[@gaillupica9187]

Can you do a review on the ventilator?

[@lipsmadu2339]

Thank you, you are a blessing to us.

[@camilaacero6813]

No opioids with pancreatitis Check morphine contraindications 👍👍

Ms. Lupica, I love your videos. I wish I had found you sooner in my nursing school journey. I am in my final semester. Your videos are extremely helpful and resourceful. I love sharing them with my friends and classmates. Thank you again.

Thank you very much. It was very informative and in short time span. And the visual is nice as well. It let's me know everything i need to know and look for so i can upstage my game while doing my orientation for work on the med surg floor.
