These on-call shifts really get the juices going. What's the longest period you've ever stayed awake?
3 in the morning at most. But that was when I was very young. What would you consider other then coffee when looking for ways to stay awake?
48hrs. I was hallucinating at that point.
Programming. Had two 34 working hour days in my life. After 20 hours you have to write down what you have done and what you plan to do next, because short term memory is basically absent at that point.
@@penetrarthur absolutely. Lists are super important!
36 hours on an ambulance.
Like the other comments state, after 20 hours your short term memory does begin to falter. Around hour 32 things get odd.
I just found your channel and my goal is become a neurosurgeon in the states. I look forward to your wisdom. Thanks for sharing with us!
Doctors: Sleep is so important you should be getting 7+ hours a day
Also doctors: 24 hour shifts
@Dasse some do 30+ hrs 😔
Dear oh dear..Nothing much has changed since the late 1960s/early 70s. This brings back memories of exhausted House Officers. The positivity and commitment of the encumbrants never fail but blow me away. I'm sitting here on a Bank Holiday Weekend remembering hating when Christmas or indeed Easter was tagged onto a weekend. It's a pretty long shift without sleep and food for some. I thought conditions had improved. I do recall a H.O. having an epileptic fit on Gloucester Ward purely from exhaustion and lack of food. A job like that was indeed a baptism of fire. Night Sisters like myself took on a lot of responsibility to try and support them. Sometimes having to go and physically drag them out of bed armed with a cold wet flannel as there was a limit to what a Sister could legally do and we had our own heavy workload to support nurses and patients with not least supervised regular turns on strikor frames medications to supervise and distraught relitaves to comfort. One moment of nostalgia was triggered on seeing the current great view. Our topmost view came from Helen Raphael Ward over the city of London. No Shard then. No Gerkin, no cheesegrater. The blinds would go up with a flourish on the arrival of the Tea Trolley coupled with a rendering of " Earth hath not anything to show more fair, dull would he be of souls who could pass by a sight so stunning in its majesty. This city now doth like a garment wear the beauty of the morning silent, bear. Ships, Towers, Domes, Theatres and Temples lay open to the fields and to the sky" from "Upon Westminster Bridge" oh the wonderful Royal London Hospital and it's people right up to today.......so proud of you.👏
Incredible. And what a gorgeous poem that is. I drove over London Bridge today. Never fails to take my breath away!

@Rohan Hiwarkar if you want to make money be a lawyer if you want to serve your fellow people you become a surgeon/medical Dr.
They typically start out at 80k
@@savannaledden2943 the average starting salary for a neurosurgeon is approximately 470,000$ per year in the us however with 15 years+ of experience that number can go upwards of 930,000. Salary is not something you should focus on as a neurosurgeon because the job itself is so incredibly strenuous and difficult, despite the money it has to be something you truly love. It’s absolutely something to look at as a surgeon, just not a primary focus. Thanks for coming to my Ted talk
Having survived a ruptured brain aneurysm 4 years ago, I wondered what you guys do when you're not saving someone's life. Thank you for posting this video. God bless you and all Neurosurgeons.
Oh my
Sleep i guess
Imagine studying like a dog for 15+ years and then working like a dog for 24hr+ shifts... no matter what they’re paid, they’re underpaid.
Gabriel Paltridge the average neurosurgeon makes about 700000€ a year, dont know about this guy though
Maarten Slobbe neurosurgeons in a NHS Hospital in the UK make about 60k-100k Pounds per year. We’re not in the states bro😂
@@maartenslobbe5643 where are you getting those numbers from none of my friends even make close to that and they are surgeons.
@@Unknown-si8yx it all depends on your contract and speciality, its highly variable. Although, that much money is realistic.
Yess
It's hard to believe his job is to open someone's skull and fix the problem. If I am having a bad day at work, I close my office door. Being a neurosurgeon, he can't have a bad day on the job. Much respect, sir.

I have a soft spot for neurosurgeons. My daughter wrecked her bicycle when she was 8. A couple of hours and two separate emergency visits later she was on a MedEvac chopper with a subdural hematoma and unresponsive in flight. I watched her be unloaded from the helicopter, the surgeon assessed her in minutes and sent her to surgery immediately. After about 2 hours, a craniotomy and evacuating the blood clot he told us she was alive but didn’t know if there would brain damage or cognitive problems later. She’s now 29, married, smart and perfectly healthy. Thank you Dr. Joel Pickett of Huntsville AL.
It used to be my dream to be a surgeon but i didn’t make it in uni but I’ve made it as a psychiatrist and I love it. You are honestly such an inspiration.
I really enjoyed psychiatry actually but I found it really difficult after a while!
A fucking neurosurgeon found psychiatry difficult, I din't expect that
He couldn’t wrap his mind around it
Psychiatry is difficult because you’re forced to confront your own mental healthy problems
how much do u make/year
He said: Felt cute, might perform a brain surgery 😌

Q C what?
Q C brown pity privilege tf? If you want to complain ab a type of privilege complain ab white privilege or pretty privilege
Q C wtf! how could you be so insensitive
@Q C I'm so sick of white privilege to walk outside without getting shot, you don't have to think about that, don't you? You fucking sheet of paper
When I think my workload is bad, I come here to remind myself that I'm just lazy.
It's all relative!
this positive mindset will take you places.
😅😅😅 same
😂😂😂😂😂
Same here. Lmao I love watching doctors and nurses vlogs, puts me in study and work mode 😂 I'm not even in the health field lol
“Done a couple emergency operations” mannn said so casual 💯💯
No way! This Dr visited my mom, such an amazing and professional person. Can't believe he is on YT!
I’m a nurse in the US and we use those same Ascom phones and when I heard it ring I immediately got anxiety 😂😂
Urgh I know right?
we have vocera where I am
Brainbook we in Bangladesh have intercom. And when it starts to ring at the middle of night i know that shit is about to get real
Ascom ringing gives me PTSD
I'm a nurse in Norway.. Same phone, same ringtone 😩
Ok, if a doctor is going to be cutting me open. He better not be up for 24 freaking hours. They gotta stop doing this to nurses and doctors. They are seriously the most important people to be getting sleep!
I might be wrong but I feel they have a larger team and not everyone is so overworked, else it's just a matter of time until something bad happens
sadly but i believe they do this because doctors have not given all the information to the next doctor about the patient or have misunderstood stuff so they messed something up but i believe they should make a system in which they could pass down information with the least amount of mistakes
Nurses don't work these shifts, Drs do. There are a tonne more nurses than there are Drs so i'ts easy to have nurses working 8-16 hour shifts. While Drs are stuck working 24 hour shifts. But that is shift work for you.
@@guerra_dos_bichos
You'd be surprised, It's 2:37am as I type this, and I am nearing the latter stage of my 24 hour Gynaecology emergency shift.
I actually asked this same question to a trauma surgeon at Vanderbilt during a cadaver lab and he said they did studies to see if there was any deterioration in quality of surgery after being awake for 24 hrs and they said in there was no difference and that adrenaline and dopamine had a huge role in keeping things the same
I had my first (and hopefully but improbably my last) neurosurgery last October. Thank you for everything you do, incredible!
Fingers crossed for you!
The amount of respect i have for this man is unexplainable. We cant thank you enough. Doing you call shifts and blogging at the same time is an incredible job to manage. Always giving me motivation to study and become like you one day InshaAllah.
How do you manage to concentrate and stay alert for such a long time? performing surgery at 1am and finishing at 4, while having been on shift for a full day. simply incredible
Drugs maybe
Cocaine
I actually want to know because I usually have labs that last for 3 hours and I'm just absolutely exhausted by the end of it lmao. Brainbook do you recommend cocaine? haha
That's why he's a neurosurgeon and none of the below aren't. It makes sense
@@ayatali4619 You can train your body and mind to work longer shifts.

Or it might be cuz of the other thing I'm thinking
Parents: why don’t you be a doctor?
Me: lol
As mentioned in Prof. Matthew Walker's book 'Why We Sleep' - lack of sleep brings cognitive decline. It's scary to think you may be operated upon by a surgeon that has been up all night and your life is literally in their hands. 24h shifts should not be a thing. Respect to you sir for everything you do. Thank you.
There isn't enough people who want to invest in decade plus and go over $100,000 in debt before taking exams to start your internship, residency, and fellowship and start digging out of debt. Assuming you don't get married, and or have children and or divorced.

As someone that just had their second neurosurgery this year, thank you for what you do!
I hope it went well for you!
Brainbook Thank you! I’ll likely never be 100%, but I’m doing much better then I was before surgery. I’m so thankful for a better quality of life! I put my faith in the doctors to hopefully cure this disease (Trigeminal Neuralgia) one day and in myself to raise awareness. All the best to you!
Same. I had a ruptured aneurysm in September and another one that was about to rupture. I’m back functioning at 100% thank God.
My boyfriend just went through this.. he had it for 3 years and it was really bad for a year and a half. He had micro vascular decompression surgery and it was successful. It was caused by an artery and a vain compressing on his trigeminal nerve. I really wish you the best and hope one day you will be pain free. I’ve seen first hand just how painful and debilitating it can be and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone 😔
If thats you in the picture, I thought a model never has to deal with bad stuff.
Your a genuine Hero. Thank you for saving life and helping humanity.
Just the way they seem kind, calm and collected is mind blowing and humbling🙏🏾🥰 bless your souls.
You deserve to get paid more than any sports player. Wow.
Sydnie yesss I agree
Yep but capitalism. So yeah, you know.
Sydnie why does he deserve it?
@@fuckingallthesehoes3295 it takes skill to be a surgeon, beyond a game. You really think someone that spends years in school and residency, to then have 24-48hr shifts to operate on a humans brain doesn't deserve millions?
Chandler Deagle I’m not saying he doesn’t deserve it. I’m just wondering why. The sports player also deserves it too, they do hard training. Also the surgeons are compensated for their years of studying and practice, otherwise they wouldn’t accept it.
Patients: ohh it hurts, why is surgeon taking so long.
Surgeon: trying his Vlogger skills

Huge respect for all those who perfrom this beautiful profession.
it's crazy how celebrities like kim kardashian make more than a neurosurgeon but their job isn't nearly as hard as his!
Exactly
Sadly in a capitalist society salaries aren't dictated by how difficult or important it is.
Since when has making money been based in how hard your job is?
impyrobot yeah being a surgeon is very good money. But there are much easier ways to make a lot of money, for people who can recognize those opportunities. Yet it would be hard to find a more Nobel profession.

@@esflores5249 you're still valid and we love you 💞
"Ah yeah surgeons get paid loads though" when people say that i just think. Well if they do. Its because they work 47 trillion hours a bloody year.
Honestly surgeons should get paid more than any other artist. They literally save LIVES. What did Kylie Jenner do to become a millionaire? How did she help the humanity to deserve that much money and praise? Doctors not only deserve a raise during this hard period of time but also more recognition and appreciation

----Risks/Downsides of Job----
artists: cutting off your own finger on purpose, no education required
Software engineer: No college degree required, but wouldn’t hurt
Oil rig engineer: oil spills, explosions, working weeks at a time, 4-6 years of schooling, mental health from long shifts
Surgeon : 7-9 years of schooling, other people’s lives in your hands, necessary to society, dead patients of yours, some 24 hour shifts
If you to ask me I personally do not believe artists should be payed less then neurosurgeons lol
Edit: forgot to mention the amount of musical artists or movies/shows etc. that get payed *significantly* more than him purely because of the amount of consumers in the industry.
This chap who does these videos will be a great consultant in the future I am sure ! Obviously technically able but also has empathy and excellent communication skills - inspires confidence 👍
I’m a medical assistant for a neurosurgeon! I love it, and I absolutely love the neurosurgeon I work with, they do so much more than just brains and nobody ever realizes it ❤️
I can't even begin to imagine how hard he studied to get where he is

It is intense
@@ZainAhmed-ns2di I just did a 24 HR burn through call was horrible. Hahhah

It's not that hard to get into neurosurgery actually, because most people don't want to ruin their lifes.
It's much harder to get into dermatology for example, much more competition and you need better grades for that.
he is so casual about emergency operations lol
That’s actually a good thing. You don’t want a surgeon to be nervous/pressured during emergencies.
Any surgeon needs to learn on how to be calm during life or death situations, its important they dont freak out,espically after being up for 24 hours
@@rubyy7013 basically, they are superhumans
I think that’s how they make sure the patient is not panicking or the doctors don’t escalate the situation,
They have to be supercool ofcourse..branches like neurosurgery, vascular surgery and paediatric surgeries are too hectic.. otherwise they can't handle it
Man this is so inspiring to watch. I really wanna get into medicine when I graduate but I’m obviously not cut out for something as hard as neurosurgery. I still love to watch vids like this tho, it’s so cool to see what it’s like

2 years to go until I'm a resident. I thought about neurosurgery, but man I don't want to ruin my life for my job.
I've talked to many neurosurgeons and the majority said that they regret doing it. No free time, no time for the kids, constant stress and work and finally health problems that come with it later on. So I guess it's a nope for me, even though it's super fascinating.

@@Brainbook I mean it with absolute respect for you and all the other neurosurgeons in the UK. You could also talk about how being a doctor in the UK is different than being a doctor in the US (where I am). Another idea, live Q & A session. Finally, you can do a story time, about an especially arduous case or an especially interesting one. I've subbed sir!
I'm an A-levels student, and I'll start uni next year. Its a dream & a goal of mine to become a neurosurgeon. Seeing this video just made me emotional I dont know why haha. The journey is gonna be hard & very time consuming but I'm looking forward to it. Im hoping that I'll be in his shoes one day!
That's insane, It is not healthy if you keep this up, they should not make anyone work for that long, especially for Neurosurgeon. The intensity of studying to become a Neurosurgeon is already bad enough then working as one is even more exhausting.

TheRealSam But the student loans...
TheRealSam but the malpractice insurance
Slave work

This boi out here skillfully cuttin up someone's brain after ain't sleepin for 24 hours and I'm out here complaining bout the smallest shit. Damn. This guy has discipline. This is what true success takes ig
I'm from Canada but had my third transphenoidal microresection at the Royal in 1999. Fantastic team there.
This is so cool, I been interested in becoming a neurosurgeon/ studying neuroscience for quite a while now. This made me feel very inspired

I love how fear of saying the "Q" word transcends different countries across the health care culture. 😂
Lol always. It's the worst word you can say at the beginning of a shift
And professions. I don’t use it as an EMT. It’s the devils word 😂
Please I'm curious, what's this "Q word"?
@@amarachiozonuwe7388 quiet....
@@Brainbook OK....Why shouldn't it be said?
Thank you and everyone else in the NHS, for all that you do!

As a current Physician Assistant Student in my first semester, the feeling of correctly diagnosing a Subdural Hematoma based on the symptoms you were describing was one of the best feelings that I’ve had. Can’t wait to get on the floor!
Now back to preparing for my Gross Anatomy exam!
How did the exam go?
Its not the matter how much you working hard ,it's how much you love it
He lost me at “24 hour shift”
I discovered these videos shortly before deciding I wanted to do neurosurgery. What a coincidence.
Same here🤣
Thanks to youtube AI algorithm
