    Altered mental status (AMS) can be an early warning sign of serious conditions, yet it's often overlooked or dismissed as simple confusion. In this episode, critical care nurse practitioner Christian Guzman breaks down the complexities of AMS and its many causes. Christian walks us through a systematic approach to assessing and managing patients with AMS, from performing key neurological exams to interpreting critical lab values. You'll learn about surprising medications that can affect cognition, especially in older adults, and how to differentiate between common causes of confusion and more urgent scenarios.

I love this podcast!!!

I am a clinical nurse II, and just passed the one year as a nurse mark. I’m a Nephrology nurse and learned things on the Dialysis session. Thank you so much for all of the content and interviews you are doing!

Wealth of information!

I am entering nursing school in the fall and stumbled upon this podcast. I absolutely love it!!! The content has already helped me apply and make connections with the content I am learning in my classes. I have learned so many things I hope to take with me as I enter the hospitals and to be a better nurse and advocate for my patients. I even got my mom, who has no desire to enter the medical field, hooked on the podcast! Annie and her guests do an awesome job of giving technical information and also explaining it in a way a person who has minimal medical background can learn from. Keep up the awesome work!!

THIS! Thank you!

This is what we need in the profession, comfortable conversations with doctors and nurses that are geared towards working and experienced nurses filling in gaps and discussing these topics. I really appreciated listening to this and hope there is more down the road. Also relate to losing my dad from heart attack suddenly while I was in nursing school and I really enjoyed that episode as well as the potassium and bp discussion.
