CATS Hypercalcemia and Hypocalcemia | Nursing Mnemonics for NCLEX

Welcome to Nursing Mnemonics — new episodes drop every Wednesday.

Calcium imbalances show up on the NCLEX all the time. This episode teaches you CATS for hypocalcemia (convulsions, arrhythmias, tetany, spasms) and the groans, moans, bones, stones, and overtones of hypercalcemia — so you can nail any calcium question.
