Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS): Scoring, Assessment & NCLEX Traps
A complete walkthrough of the Glasgow Coma Scale covering all three components (Eye, Verbal, Motor), how to perform the assessment from least to most invasive, and the clinical thresholds you need to know. Includes memory tricks like EVM 4-5-6, key rules such as "less than 8, intubate" and documenting non-testable components as NT, plus a breakdown of the Pediatric GCS and when a score drop signals a neurological emergency. Ends with a practice question calculating and classifying a GCS of 12.

Neurovascular Assessment: Circulation, Sensation, and Compartment Syndrome
If your casted patient has severe pain unrelieved by opioids but still has a pulse—🚨 think Acute Compartment Syndrome (ACS). In this NCLEX-focused lesson, we turn a classic clinical scenario into a clear, step-by-step approach you can use on exams and in clinicals. You’ll learn the 6 P’s, which signs show up early vs. late, and the exact first nursing actions to take to protect perfusion and save tissue.
