My brother died of sepsis, it was so hard and I have a lot of questions since it happened so fast. He was just three days in the hospital then he died. Thank you for doing this. Thank you for providing helpful insights in the medical field. More power to you.
@@echase416 Sepsis can kill someone very rapidly, especially if early signs are not caught. Once patients get past the compensatory stage and into the progressive stage, it is harder to treat because tissues and organs start dying. This is why it is so important for nurses to assess their patients frequently and notice any subtle changes.
I am very sorry for your loss. I hope you feel better now. @RegisteredNurseRN thank you for your explaining. Has the neurogenic shock video come out yet?
Thank you for your videos! I'm an actress playing a nurse in a film, and I have been watching all of your videos to learn about how to accurately portray a nurse. Thank you for your work you do in the world, wow, being a nurse is such an important job, and if any nurses are reading this BLESS YOU and STAY SAFE AND HEALTHY!
I passed the NCLEX thanks to all of your videos 2 years ago. I've been working as an RN for a year and a half and you're still taking me to school! Thank you for all you do and please keep it up!
You played a big role in I passing the PN exam on 1st attempt with after 100 questions. Thank you So much, I pray that God Blessed you wish all kinds of blessings. And I will come back for my RN review. Thank You
I can't believe how easy you made it. I am an international RN. Before taking the NCLEX, I watched all your videos and I passed. You have a natural talent to make things clear and easy to learn. Thanks!
It has been a while since I had a patient with septic shock and I had a 12 year old tonight with it after stepping on a old rusty nail last week. I decided to watch your video to fully refresh my memory on septic. Thanks for the video- Gage ACNP.
My dear friend is in the hospital currently with sepsis after surgery & septic shock. This is the best video I’ve found yet that describes what’s going on etc. Thanks for posting.
I found your channel last month, and got an A on my test on the renal and endocrine system because of these videos. My next test is Friday, and I'm aiming for another one! I can't believe how much I learn just watching these. Thank you thank you thank you!
My fiance right now is in the ICU and they had to put her on ventilator and think the infection is on her heart valve and are going to do some sort of prceedure to find the infection. The doctor told me if they can't get it under control by Tuesday they will have to prepare to keep her as comfortable as possible to pass away. I'm at a loss right now 😭
I am not a new nurse but went from being a nurse in substance abuse after many years to hospice and home health so I really appreciate these videos to review my skills and learn new things.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE pass along the after-effects of Sepsis. The majority of Sepsis survivors are never told what sepsis leaves you with. All of my after effects I had, I had to find out for myself on-line from other survivors.
Thank you for making this video so easy to understand. I happened upon it because one of my favorite people, opera great Jessye Norman, died from septic shock and I wanted to try and understand what may have happened to her. I was so devastated when she passed away, and because of the manner in which she passed. I just hope she wasn't in agony before she left this earth.
For me, as a nurse, I had perforated bowel, 8 liters of poo removed and 14 washout surgeries, 5 months in the hospital 2 of those ICU. Horrible. still recovereing, sepsis, multiple organ failure, and ARDS< and scarring in lungs.
Same here, lost 2-3 units before sepsis turned to shock and those nasty 3 made it really ugly. I was lucky that I had a great hospital near Chicago that used this latest tech in the ICU to do bedside dialysis and clean out my blood of anything and everything related to the blood clotting and organ failure. They never found the bleed, it recurred 2 days after first release and then I've been stable +1 year. I did have several stents placed in my heart in areas that remained thrombotic. Who knows what other damage was done but im alive today and can thank great nurses mostly and the paramedics for moving fast after I coded at home. That bedside dialysis is a real game changer for septic shock.
Thank you for explaining sepsis and septic shock. Your presentation is one of few that thoroughly explains the paths physiology of this disorder. I recently lost my mother to this horrific condition and everything you explained is what she went through. The very first sign was pain, altered mental status. When she was admitted into the hospital, they noticed low urine output and her kidneys was failing, then I was told her WBC was extremely high, and everything else went down hill from there. I’ve heard of sepsis or SIRS but didn’t know what it was and what it does to the body. I didn’t care or think to research it not until my mom was diagnosed with it.
My husband had Sepsis and had everyone of these symptoms.He got it while in a nursing facility they didn't do anything in time and he died! It was a horrible death he was I'm so.much.pain that could have been prevented. Please watch out for any open sore.DO NOT go in any type of whirlpool or any other water as it has bacteria in it.Take care of yourself and others you love..😢
Sarah your videos are awesome. Wish I would’ve gone into nursing school when I was younger. You make this subject so much easier to understand. Thanks 🙏
You are an absolute blessing Sarah. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. SO grateful. You teach me more than my lectures do..... love from Australia x
Sarah...thank you so so much! I can't tell you how many times you saved me. You make nursing school so much easier! This is my last semester and I am so grateful for you!
Hi Sarah I’m a new grad Rn And this was an interview question! Also I watched you all throughout nursing school Did well! Thanks I love that you share your faith as well That’s always a bonus !
I went into sepsis shock from mrsa in my ear. I was very sleepy and confused and not talking. My blood pressure got down to 60/10. I had broken heart syndrome and my liver and also my intestines shut down. I had to be vented and had a femoral line.
I had sepsis in 2016. I almost died from a rare and unusual fungal blood infection. The doctors didn't know what was wrong with me so they were treating me for the wrong things.. I had to have a broncoscopi and it took 10 days to culture the biopsy. Once we found out what we were fighting I was given the proper medicine to fight it. I was taking Methotrexate and was immunocomprimised.
I have no intention on becoming a healthcare professional but I think it is interesting learning about these things :) thanks for providing this important info in an easily digestible, easily accessible manner for laymen.
I’ve got exams in 2 weeks, this lecture was great. Thank you! Please can you provide a lecture on sedation, pain & delirium before two weeks? Thank you for your support 💕
Hi Sara, I managed to stop by here and watched your video. Very informative and this helps me widen my understanding of Septic Shock and Acute Circulatory Failures. I'm no Doctor neither a Nurse. I am an EMT who lost a son weeks ago due to Septic Shock and Acute Circulatory Failure. I wish to know more of this cases, if you can messaged privately. I would be honored to listen and learn from you.
Your video lessons has helped me a lot in reviewing for NCLEX. You've made all those topics easier to understand and remember. Thank You!!! Lots love from the Philippines
You're a great teacher Ma'am. Thank you for this informative video about septic shock. I'm here to know more about the septic shock that killed a best friend of mine.
Hi Sarah, i always love your content :) Thank you so much for the amazing lecture you shared with us!! I've been doing my clinical study at home instead of at the hospital. It's so sad, but your videos help me a lot :)) Hope you and your family have a good day
Had a patient ask me about the patho of septic shock yesterday, I'm so glad I was able to explain it. Just watching this video to make sure I was right lol.
I've been doing research on sepsis because back in 2018 I had sepsis and I didn't really get the gravity of the situation I was in. I had not been feeling that great for about 6 months before sepsis decided to come in and completely annihilate me and honestly I'm surprised I'm still alive I was 97% leaning towards just trying to go to bed and seeing if I would feel better the next day but then I had to go to the bathroom so I forced myself up and walking to the bathroom took all my energy I could barely breathe anymore but by the time I got back to my bed my heart really hurt so instead of going to bed which I was going to do I called 911. When the ambulance picked me up they couldn't even test my sugar levels because it just wouldn't read my blood when I got to the hospital though within minutes of them taking a blood test the doctor was in there telling me I need to be admitted. I had sepsis endocarditis and I was severely anemic I think they said my red blood cell count was that like a four or something like that the very next morning after being admitted I woke up I ordered breakfast in the hospital took one nibble end lights out woke up in the ICU was no longer in my lovely private room and I was like what the hell happened then they told me I had a stroke... If that's not already bad enough if I would have waited a couple of hours to call the ambulance I would have been home alone for a whole week so I would have gone to bed hoping I'd wake up feeling better and within 15 to 20 minutes upon waking up I would have had a stroke and there would have been no one to help me. I even told the doctor I was considering waiting till next week when everybody got home from vacation they told me that I wouldn't have had a whole week that they don't even think I would have had a full 24 hours left they were thinking I would have had maybe another 6 hours of life in me without treatment it's crazy to think if I would have chosen to go to bed which I was literally 97% leaning towards I would have been dead dead the next morning if I wouldn't have gone and got treatment I probably wouldn't have had the stroke because I probably would have just gone to bed and not woke up. It blows my mind that I was literally on my deathbed and by simply changing one thing that's the only reason I'm alive because I really didn't want to call for help because I've been feeling really really really really really really really sick for a while because of my anemia I was so weak I didn't get up in the shower for almost 3 months because I just couldn't do it I didn't want anybody to see me like that but I said fuck it and just decided to call by simply telling myself I'm sure they see people in horrible conditions all the time so probably wouldn't be the first time they'd seen a patient that was too sick to get up and shower before coming to see them. Although I'm not really surprised sepsis was unable to kill me everything else has tried to I've been in and out of the hospital my whole life I've had everything if you look at my stomach area it looks like I sell my organs for money because of surgery after surgery after surgery so my body is very resilient it's been through the wringer a thousand times over and it seems like none of it will actually kill me my body just won't allow it and it is constantly on high alert for anything add to the ordinary.
A close friend of mine was taken off the vent yesterday. (Life Support), Sceptic, Hospital Aquired Pneumonia, COPD, UTI(that I guess caused the Sceptis), add MRSA, she smoked until she went on the vent. I guess it all came from uti turning sceptic.
Do you have a MODS review ? Also thank you for all you do I'm in 4th semester and I've been watching you since 1st semester, you have guided me through !!!
Hai sarah tanks for your videos.could you olz upload a video on hemopilia and x linked recessive disorde plz.studying for nclex.i cant understand the topic.could you olz upload it.because you are a life saver for me now.becaus you are valuable teacher who know all contents
Hello medical community I am a c-diff and septic shock survivor and this is my story. I was born with sds, (swhachmens diamond syndrome) I went into the hospital due to severe vomiting and diarrhea 3 different ekgs and blood pressure machines couldn't pick up my heart I had a ct scan and they manually checked my blood pressure I was checked for sepsis I had septic shock so I was taken to icu but when I got there (not in my right mind) I denied a ventilator/kidney dialysis/even shock paddles I told my icu doctor that I didn't want anything she said okay then she asked me what sds was so I started explaining it to her in great detail as the nurse looked and said his blood pressure is dropping more I looked at her and said it mimics cystic fibrosis and I passed out I can remember the doctor watching over my vitals at the monitor she said how the fuck is he still breathing this is before they knew I had cdiff for sure because all stool samples I gave happened to be contaminated (when I poop I pee I can't help it....) 2 or 3 days later I woke up and got out of bed it was very difficult to stand and walk I felt so tired physically the bed alarm went off an the doctors and nurses ran in suprised the doctor said I shouldn't be able to stand let alone walk I thought I was still wearing my jeans and belt but I was in scrubs I grabbed where my belt buckle would have been located and said I'm Irish and that I had to take a shit the doctor said OK! And then hours later they found out I had cdiff I took a turn for the worse again my blood pressure started dropping and my vitals looked bad I had denied pain medication several times and had denied that blood clotting shot thingy to the stomach once I only took antibiotics+vancomycin and nausea medicine along with being pumped full of fluids the doctor wondered why I wasn't absorbing anything see she didnt believe I had sds even though it's in my medical records and even though I had someone bring my prescription for creon in she wasnt given it to me correctly for awhile they gave me 48,000 units of creon an I was able to get a reaction out of my body and started absorbing medication and nutrition my body wasnt near stable and I my heart was failing so they were gonna give me one of 3 medicines i disagreed and requested dopamine to open the heart valves the doctor that was treating me argued about it but the doctor i asked agreed after we talked about statistics of mortality taking those medications I survived an was in the hospital for 4 days total it's been a year an almost 3 months since that happened I am happy to be alive and able to see my children grow I am a MRSA survivor as well it was an infection in the joint of my knee and almost costed me my leg I feel very blessed I survived so much and after my colonoscopy was done they said it was like I never had an infection but I did follow instructions but I did something else to I ate yogurt (live probiotics) and I drank skin milk with (prebiotics) I also accidentally doubled dose on vancomycin but everything turned out good 🙂 I am lucky, happy to be alive 🙂 You know who you are doctor R, an doctor S thank you very much for saving my life (P.s) I started singing time of your life by green day and comfortably numb by pink floyd while pooping out tons of blood and inspired people on the icu floor to start singing an playing music the nurses let us play music for like 2 hours before they had to tell everyone to keep it down because it was like 3 or 4am it was great therapy 😇❤
My beloved sister passed away from this! I wish we could have known and got her to a hos]ital. There was a clear thin liquid on the floor that came from her body. What was that?
My Appendix Perforated and i didnt go to the Hospital for way over 24 Hours when i got there i was in Septic Shock!! With severely low Blood Pressure and i was close to death before going jnto Emergency Surgery, but my Septic Shock came from i had Puss all over the Place and had to have Exploratory Surgery! They Fileted me like a Fish!! Uuug Very Very Painful!!
My mum died of sepsis shock few weeks after giving birth to me...they called it septicaemia shock due to puveral sepsis was wondering is it inheritable?

Hi Sara, you are awesome . Could you plz explain culture diversity topic in nclex review content .
sarah! thank you so much for all your videos! Can you explain SIRS and MODS in another video?
Do you have a video about Septic shock aftercare?
What is the recovery time?
You are the best, I am medical student, and I learnt a lot from your videos, thank you so much for your amazing explanation ❤️
Sarah, can I please send my school tuition to you? They dont deserve it. Thanks for all your awesomeness!!!!

I’ve been a nurse for 3 years and I still come back to these videos. Very helpful and the mnemonics are great. Thanks a bunch ☺️

My brother died of sepsis, it was so hard and I have a lot of questions since it happened so fast. He was just three days in the hospital then he died. Thank you for doing this. Thank you for providing helpful insights in the medical field. More power to you.
I'm sorry for your loss. What questions did you have?
One article I read said that Sepsis can kill in 12 hours. 💔
@@echase416 Sepsis can kill someone very rapidly, especially if early signs are not caught. Once patients get past the compensatory stage and into the progressive stage, it is harder to treat because tissues and organs start dying. This is why it is so important for nurses to assess their patients frequently and notice any subtle changes.
I’m sorry for your loss 😢

New nurse who needed a refresher on sepsis/shock material. Always come back to you! Thank you!
It has been a while since I had a patient with septic shock and I had a 12 year old tonight with it after stepping on a old rusty nail last week. I decided to watch your video to fully refresh my memory on septic. Thanks for the video- Gage ACNP.
My dear friend is in the hospital currently with sepsis after surgery & septic shock. This is the best video I’ve found yet that describes what’s going on etc. Thanks for posting.
I found your channel last month, and got an A on my test on the renal and endocrine system because of these videos. My next test is Friday, and I'm aiming for another one! I can't believe how much I learn just watching these. Thank you thank you thank you!
Do you know what kind of specialist doctors found out this disease. What doctors help me. My primary care don't understand. .I have symtoms
I am a Recovery from Sepsis during 2017. It was scary. I almost DIDN'T make it. I am lucky to have another chance to live life.
My fiance right now is in the ICU and they had to put her on ventilator and think the infection is on her heart valve and are going to do some sort of prceedure to find the infection. The doctor told me if they can't get it under control by Tuesday they will have to prepare to keep her as comfortable as possible to pass away. I'm at a loss right now 😭

the BEST video for septic shock out there!!! thank you!!!!! GOD BLESS YOU!!
In the UK studying nursing. Your videos are a lifesaver because we are taught that "sepsis is bad" but its assumed that we know what it is

excellent video and very well explained. I am a paramedic but makes it simple for me. Thanks!
It’s kinda sad I didn’t really know what sepsis was for a lot of my first year of med school 😅
@@BlackBird447 Probably because it can mostly affect older people more than any other age group.

Never heard of this until I was home from the hospital I’ve been recovering since February it did do damage to my heart.

Although I'm not really surprised sepsis was unable to kill me everything else has tried to I've been in and out of the hospital my whole life I've had everything if you look at my stomach area it looks like I sell my organs for money because of surgery after surgery after surgery so my body is very resilient it's been through the wringer a thousand times over and it seems like none of it will actually kill me my body just won't allow it and it is constantly on high alert for anything add to the ordinary.
Hi Sarah. Great work with the videos. Can you make videos on traumatic brain injuries and Spinal cord injury.
Awesome work!!!
you are a blessing, thank you for your perfect explanation
A close friend of mine was taken off the vent yesterday. (Life Support), Sceptic, Hospital Aquired Pneumonia, COPD, UTI(that I guess caused the Sceptis), add MRSA, she smoked until she went on the vent. I guess it all came from uti turning sceptic.
Has She recovered?

Hello medical community I am a c-diff and septic shock survivor and this is my story.
I was born with sds, (swhachmens diamond syndrome) I went into the hospital due to severe vomiting and diarrhea 3 different ekgs and blood pressure machines couldn't pick up my heart I had a ct scan and they manually checked my blood pressure I was checked for sepsis I had septic shock so I was taken to icu but when I got there (not in my right mind) I denied a ventilator/kidney dialysis/even shock paddles I told my icu doctor that I didn't want anything she said okay then she asked me what sds was so I started explaining it to her in great detail as the nurse looked and said his blood pressure is dropping more I looked at her and said it mimics cystic fibrosis and I passed out I can remember the doctor watching over my vitals at the monitor she said how the fuck is he still breathing this is before they knew I had cdiff for sure because all stool samples I gave happened to be contaminated (when I poop I pee I can't help it....) 2 or 3 days later I woke up and got out of bed it was very difficult to stand and walk I felt so tired physically the bed alarm went off an the doctors and nurses ran in suprised the doctor said I shouldn't be able to stand let alone walk I thought I was still wearing my jeans and belt but I was in scrubs I grabbed where my belt buckle would have been located and said I'm Irish and that I had to take a shit the doctor said OK! And then hours later they found out I had cdiff I took a turn for the worse again my blood pressure started dropping and my vitals looked bad I had denied pain medication several times and had denied that blood clotting shot thingy to the stomach once I only took antibiotics+vancomycin and nausea medicine along with being pumped full of fluids the doctor wondered why I wasn't absorbing anything see she didnt believe I had sds even though it's in my medical records and even though I had someone bring my prescription for creon in she wasnt given it to me correctly for awhile they gave me 48,000 units of creon an I was able to get a reaction out of my body and started absorbing medication and nutrition my body wasnt near stable and I my heart was failing so they were gonna give me one of 3 medicines i disagreed and requested dopamine to open the heart valves the doctor that was treating me argued about it but the doctor i asked agreed after we talked about statistics of mortality taking those medications I survived an was in the hospital for 4 days total it's been a year an almost 3 months since that happened I am happy to be alive and able to see my children grow I am a MRSA survivor as well it was an infection in the joint of my knee and almost costed me my leg I feel very blessed I survived so much and after my colonoscopy was done they said it was like I never had an infection but I did follow instructions but I did something else to I ate yogurt (live probiotics) and I drank skin milk with (prebiotics) I also accidentally doubled dose on vancomycin but everything turned out good 🙂 I am lucky, happy to be alive 🙂
You know who you are doctor R, an doctor S thank you very much for saving my life
(P.s) I started singing time of your life by green day and comfortably numb by pink floyd while pooping out tons of blood and inspired people on the icu floor to start singing an playing music the nurses let us play music for like 2 hours before they had to tell everyone to keep it down because it was like 3 or 4am it was great therapy 😇❤
