I wanted to thank you for the article on mag sulfate in the MCN publication (Simpson and Knox, May 2004). Our hospital took the article and used it as a model for looking at our practices as being "safe practices." We took our current standing physician orders, practices, and policies and procedures and analyzed them in conjunction with the key points in your article. We found it to be a very helpful tool.

Our whole group needs to send in the posttest and get our CEU's because we certainly could probably answer each question from memory. Thanks again for all your hard work.
