I will be using the strategies learned in ED 108 as I prepare for my next didactic class next month in Respiratory Nursing. I have always remembered a mnemonic that I was taught in my associate degree nursing program of how to remember the 12 cranial nerves " On Old Olympus's Towering Top, A Finn And German Viewed A Hop"-Olfactory, Optic, Oculomotor, Trochlear, Trigeminal, Abducens, Facial, Acoustic, Glossopharyngeal, Vagal, Accessory (Spinal), Hypoglossal. Now all I have to do is come up with something clever to remember the differences between respiratory and metabolic acidosis/alkalosis.
