I am comparison shopping and need input. I'd like to hear from
folks about what their opinions are in terms of quality, and logistics of taking
and/or running the ATCN vs. TNCC. Thanks for any info you can
provide.

I have 2 questions for the group.
1. If you patients
with these devices (ICP/ventricular drains) in place and they are
clinically stable, on what units can they be
admitted to. ICU only, Or do you also send
them to ICU stepdown or regular units.??
2. Does anyone have any policy
or references to share that address the standard for the length of
time these devices should be left in
place??
I appreciate your assistance.
