"I will be able to lend my support to nursing regulators to fulfill their mandate to protect the public."
"I would like to use my experience to provide solutions to the growing mental health concerns in our society."
"I have ideas for a universal approach to empathetic care in nursing which I'd like to share with hospital systems nationally."

While community-focused, this doesn’t directly relate to the benefits of ANA membership.

Innovative, but not directly connected to ANA benefits.

Correct Answer is ["A","B","C"]
Explanation
A. Monitoring volume status
Maintaining adequate fluid balance prevents hypotension and cerebral hypoperfusion, which can worsen ICP.
B. Ensuring proper ventriculostomy transducer levels
Accurate positioning of the transducer at the level of the foramen of Monro (tragus of the ear) ensures valid ICP readings.
C. Managing sedation
Sedation can reduce cerebral metabolism and help control ICP, especially in agitated patients.
D. Completing hourly endotracheal suctioning
Frequent suctioning increases ICP and should only be done as needed with pre-oxygenation.
E. Elevating the head of the bed 15°
The head of the bed should be elevated 30° (not 15°) to promote venous drainage from the brain and reduce ICP.
