*nod* This makes sense to me. I've heard they can get territorial/overprotective of their patients, which can be a PITA, but at the same time, they know firsthand how quickly things can go south. So some of them are probably oversensitive to the least sign of serious trouble. The occasional alarm doesn't fuss most of them, but when the one nurse insisted he go back after being out for three hours and the monitors going a bit nuts multiple times, I was concerned, too. None of us wanted to assume it was a faulty monitor at that point.
