I would love to see how the internals fit in such a small package, its perfectly reasonable for the main electronics to fit but the capacitor and battery are a different story
Im a normal civilian, I hope I never have to use this, but I do like know in this type of stuff.
You must be either Indian or Polish.
What a non sense
😂
Also, if your Polish mom starts getting a little arthritis in her hands, discourage her from grabbing bunches of stinging nettle in order to cure it. In this case, the cure is worse than the disease... Based on a true story.
This is really good to know! We all have particular things in our nation…so important to know!
@groupcall6570 Why do Poles overconsume pain medication for smooth muscle spasm? I'm polish and have taken pain medication chronically in the past, but avoid it now. Can you give more information on the kinds of things Polish people deal with medically?
I wish I was Polish
I came back to the same rural county that I grew up in, and many of the folks that I went to grade and high school with, never even left! Well, I had a bad mountain accident. One of the EMTs that was involved in my rescue was someone I went to school with, thus knew I am partly Polish... all he had to do to resuscitate me and fix me on the spot was put the scent of fresh Pirogi near my nose! My Trek was still a wreck though. Lol
Sorry for Polish, I'm exhausted after 24hrs shift ;-). Z doświadczeń własnych przez prawie 20 lat pracy metamizol z reguły przez naszych pacjentów jest prawie w ogóle nie przyjmowany. Za to już znany Tobie i wszystkim z UK paracetamol, to istna plaga u nas wciąż. Starsi Pacjenci (choć nie tylko) potrafią nieświadomie przyjmować go w toksycznych dawkach poprzez kupowanie postaci różnych nazw handlowych, młodzi w ramach "zwrócenia uwagi na życiowe problemy" przyjmować hepatotoksyczne dawki w ramach prób "eS". Przykładowo przez rok mojej pracy może ew. kilku pacjentów ED podczas triage zadeklarowało (dowód anegdotyczny) przyjęcie metamizolu, za to apap, paracetamol, ibuprofen, królują. Nie zmienia to również faktu, że większość Pacjentów wzywa ZRM/zgłasza się do ED bez jakiejkolwiek próby leczenia bólu na własną rękę. Metamizol akurat w Polsce jest bardzo niedoceniany. Świetny materiał Alex!
Jak mówiła mojej świętej pamięci teściowa antybiotyku nie można zapijać wódą, ale koniakiem już tak (wg. niej jest zdrowszy)
I'm born in Koszalin. I don't drink. I have no taste for it. And I have no sympathy for the polish drunks that roam their pointless existence.
ok, canada is 32 times bigger than poland, but... we both have about the same number of citizens so... just a friendly reminder. cheers
Yes absolutely! Good point cheers mate👊
While I am not a Dr, this was nonetheless an interesting and entertaining video. One of these days I should embracey partial Polish heritage and go mushroom hunting 😂😂
What to do when encountering an ill polish person in the wild, PSA?
I thought your from India... 😂
Whyyyy?
Man this video really makes me want to compile one for my own country lmfao. I'm a doctor and we have some serious conditions that tends to happen only in out country and we are trained to deal with them but very rare in other countries. For example tuberculosis is a rather normal problem where I am and we even have a tuberculosis control center, however the locals tends to ignore warnings and leave it up to chance, so very regularly you will see TB patients with Brain TB or stomach TB. Or that we have a small flatworm epidemic on the regular, because people really like to eat fermented RAW pork or make sauces from fermented RAW river fish that tends to eat snails that's part of the flat worm reproductive cycles. And don't let me get started on the various tropical disease, snake bites, etc, etc....
That’s really interesting mate! Please do! If not the video, an article would be super interesting to read! Thank you kindly for your comment
Not once Ive heard someone use coke and coffee. Vodka and Redbull sure, but Coke and Coffee seems like asking for heart attack.
True! Or at least a “proper” syncope
Not entirely about vodka? Unsubbed.
About alkohol you should mention about home made alkohol and risks of that
That’s right - bimber carries a potential risk. The problem is that home made alcohol is common (to some extent) in Poland and relatively rare abroad. Unless the data I’ve seen is incorrect . Cheers for your comment mate 💪
Im pretty sure the same applies to everyone east of Berlin
In Poland you can bring mushrooms to the local sanitary-epidemiological station where qualified worker will check if any of picked mushrooms is poisonous.
True. However my idea focuses on Poles abroad - and to be honest I’m not aware of any foreign service like SANEPID provides back home.
@@groupcall6570 I understand! I just wanted to tell a fun fact for those who don't know, as I think this mushroom service tells how much picking mushrooms is encoded in our culture.
Дротаверин, еее) у нас тоже люди любят его пить когда не надо. ) Хоть в этом западные и восточные славяне понимают друг друга))
Yeah... but what to do when your polish patient shows signs of excessive lettering? Like, when the symptome is "dziewięćsetdziewięćdziesięciodziewięcionarodowościowego"?
You are trying to reverse it with a dose of wszczebrzeszyniechrzaszczbrzmiwtrCinie :D
@@groupcall6570 thanks! Will do... Or... I will take some Żubrówka... That usually helps! 🇵🇹❤️🇵🇱
If they come bloated, with a heavy stomach, difficulty breathing and digesting, chances are they just visited their grandma.
Exactly
Actually in Polish, a grandmother is called Babcia and they can be very dangerous species! ;)
Coke+instant coffe? Where did you find people drinking such abomination?
On British roads mate, on British roads.
I'm a Pole, furthermore I'm a polish born polish student studying in Poland and it's the first time I heard about coffe with coke. Sounds like fake or really edge cases. No offence obviously. I think it was really good and informational video :)
turning the sirens off to take the pressure out of the situation, such a nice touch
Also, if you see an old eastern european with green paint over his wounds, fear not! it's just 'zelenka' - a type of antiseptic.
Tell me more please! I never came across this one!
@@groupcall6570 It was used in the USSR and in the 90's in post soviet countries and it's still possible to buy it, but now everyone just uses iodine because it has the advantage of not being green. (the green ink-like marks remain for days)
I heard about purple iodine tinctures used as antiseptic in homr conditions, but never seen green antiseptics. Dedicated products, like octanisept, spiritus and weak perhydrol solution are most used antiseptics in Poland.
The OTC medicine thing is very interesting, I wonder if it's got something to do with the fact that we have a comically large amount of OTC med advertisements in our television. Makes you feel sick with how much they try and get you to buy it. I feel like everyone has a bottle of APAP (paracetamol) on them or like a 5kg bag of it stashed away somewhere in their home lmao.
Nigdy nic z tych rzeczy nie miałem - nie zatrułem się grzybami, nie przyniosłem kleszcza na boreliozę, herbatki mam ale nie pamiętam kiedy je piłem, leżą w apteczce na wszelki wypadek, nie znam tych leków, piję jedną kawę z rana ale taką po polsku, piję alkohol ale rzadko i co najwyżej jednego drinka albo jedno piwo. Co ty tu opowiadasz?
Nie wiem czy Ci gratulowac, czy wrecz przeciwnie ;)
@@groupcall6570 A może lepiej przyznać się do skrzywionego obrazu Polaka bo ludzie to oglądają i myślą sobie ci Polacy to są tacy głupi jakby inni byli lepsi.
@@worldcitizen181 taki obraz to nie wynik mojego dzialania - on wylania sie z danych statystycznych (chociazby spozycie lekow czy ilosc zachorowan na borelioze) - to po pierwsze. Moje zawodowej doswiadczenie (16 lat w zawodzie) odgrywa tu drugorzedna role. Po drugie, z komentarzy wynika ze inne narody (glownie z Europy Centralnej czy wchodniej - a Nawet napisal ktos z USA) maja podobnie. To nie jest kwestia bycia “lepszym/madrzejszym” czy “gorszym/glupszym” a Juz na pewno nie powinna byc to kwestia urazonej dumy narodowej tylko krytycznego/obiektywnego spojrzenia na siebie i swoich krajanow. Na koniec pozwole sobie przypomniec, ze w ostatniej czesci video mowie o tym zeby medycy nie poddawali sie stereotypom.
@@groupcall6570 No właśnie sam potwierdziłeś to co napisałem bo mówiłeś o tym wyłącznie w kontekście Polaków. Trzeba było mówić o pacjentach, a nie ze wskazaniem na konkretną nację. To tak jak ja bym napisał, że wszyscy Jankesi mają rogi.

Here in Erie Pennsylvania we have a local radio station that plays Polka music every Sunday morning until noon every week. Welcome to the Happy Tappy.
@@whereswaldo5740 I think Polka is more Czech.
@Group Call I believe your video could be called an illegal advertisment in Poland due to showing an alcohol brand name.
That's why I hope no one in Poland will watch it! :D
I don't have or personally know anyonw who'd have St. John's wort at home. Chamomile is somewhat rare too among people I know. As for the meds you mentioned, I've literally never heard of either of the two. I'll bet you a shiny penny you'll find vitamin supplements as well as headache, heartburn and diarrhoea tablets in most Poles' med cabinets though. And anti-histamine gel. I can't imagine life without anti-histamine gel. Those tick bites itch like crazy, worse than mosquito bites.
C'mon - metamizole is Pyralgina and Drotaverine is NoSpa. I'm sure you've heard about them. As for St. John's wort - I agree it's less and less popular but still lot's of elderly patients use them. Oh, anti-histamine gel - you're 1000% right!
@@groupcall6570 Ah, pyralgina and nospa, ok, now I recognise them. I didn't know the actual active substance name in these. Alright, I was wrong then: everyone has these :)
8:51 I'm sure it wasn't your intention but this transition really made me laugh! I've just finished university and am refreshing my skills that I learned in first year while I wait for my registration, so thank you for these videos!

@@johnsmiff8328 true!
Genuinely no idea why this got recommended to me but it was an interesting video.
Excellent material with real and serious tips. Polish forest mushrooms are true delicacy second to few, also pickled uhh I'm getting hungry thinking. But the poisonings are real and to be honest I'm scared to pick anything xD Herbs, teas, infusions, "nalewki" - alcohol infusions are also very popular. Some are for taste others can be considered "alternative medicine" but I can't complain about the variety. Drotaverine - There are recorded cases of deaths from this. I have no idea why it remains widely accessible in Poland, maybe some weird lobbying. I remember professors criticizing it during lectures on pharma chemistry.
I am now convinced hat poles are real. But they are fey. Fey are real and polish!
Interesting type of video.
Dude like. consider stoping life functions
That comment looks like a Russian 🧌 to me
But, nice video, useful.
So basically a huge collection of cultural bad habits and misunderstandings :)))) That sucks, honestly, ok the mushrooms maybe not, but I live in Romania and we definetly have some of these cultural "unwritten laws" (which are actually bad) where your old granny comes to you and says "yes yes, take paracetamol it will make you feel better" "Noo you dont need to see doctor, just drink some tea, it will fix you yes" :)))
kilkając w filmik na głównej nie spodziewałem się że prezenterem będzie Al Pacino, nie wierze że do tej pory nikt nie wytknął podobieństwa xD bardzo ciekawy i na pewno przydatny materiał
