Summary
If you've ever wondered why your patients with low albumin also have edema, hit play and I'll explain. You'll see that the "why" behind this connection makes total sense and it will stick with you forever. This is a quick episode that covers what albumin is and does in the body, what happens when it's low (hello edema!), where you'll most likely see this clinically and your nursing priorities when you see low albumin. ___________________ Nursing School Survival Blueprint - Feeling overwhelmed or unsure how to approach nursing school?
