  • Welcome back to another Doctor Reacts Series Episode! I listened to you in the poll I created last week and watched the popular series Untold Stories of the ER. This was a much different doctor reacts video from medical drama review because its told by actual doctors and there's MUCH fewer inaccuracies or discrepancies to point out. I wanted to watch the first episode of season one but I couldn't find it streaming anywhere, so I watched the first episode of season 5.

    7:09 I had a surgery in a foreign country where I don’t speak the language aside from basic things, and nurses kept asking me stuff and I had to keep telling the nurses things before and after my surgery. After clearly noticing a couple of nurses and I couldn’t understand each other, woman in the bed behind the curtain next to me stood up, walked over, opened my curtain holding her IV and everything and stood there and translated my quite embarrassing issues 😂😂 I still laugh when I think about it. Post-surgery she would yell over the curtain to translate still whenever a nurse came haha. She must have been super bored and wanted to show off her English skills, very thankful for her.

    I am a retired RN, worked 10 yrs at level 1 trauma center ER (1980-1990). We cracked a chest (thoracotomy) at least once or twice a week. They were all due to trauma, GSW, impaled object, stabbing, etc. Ahh, the good old days. Best part was having a patient return to visit us after their recovery.

  • @patrickbuick5459
    @patrickbuick5459 3 ปีที่แล้ว +44

    When I heard you say "I've never heard of a thoracotomy done in ER", I flashed back to my ER days on code team and a doc decided the trauma victims only chance was direct massage. He opened up, pointed to me to glove up and do massage. I was just the nursing attendant. It didn't have the desired outcome, we couldn't push appropriate fluids fast enough to maintain any kind of perfusion. This had nothing to do with it, but I went to the dark side not too many years afterward - IT instead of medical, though I have switched back and forth a couple of times over the years.

    • @laurao3274
      @laurao3274 2 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      I did a project in college about the issues of language access in hospitals. One of the most shocking things I found in my research was how common it is for hospital staff to use children, even young children, as interpreters for their parents. One report even found an instance of a 3 y.o. interpreting for their parent. I understand why hospitals have to use family members to interpret when it's a really rare language, like a First Nation language or something, but it happens all the time even with Spanish speakers (in the US). It's inexcusable.
      Family members, unless they have a medical background, don't know all the medical lingo. Far too much gets lost in the sauce. And quite often, they won't interpret everything, because they think it embarrassing or shameful. Or they're just so overwhelmed by the emotion of it all that their brain shuts down. Or especially in the case of grandchildren, being a blood relative does not mean that you speak grandma's language to a satisfactory degree. Plus, knowing a language doesn't mean you can do well as an interpreter. It's a skill that people train years to acquire. It's like saying, "Hey, you're good at arithmetic, now go teach this math class."

    I remember an episode where twin doctors both had a patient who was faking pain. And after the woman stormed out of the hospital with one twin, the doctor called his brother and told him about her. Which meant when she arrived at the other hospital she ended up meeting the twin of the doctor who determined there was nothing wrong with her. And on her way out, the twin she had as her doctor in the first hospital was walking into the hospital.
    Pretty much twin doctors made a plan to mess with a patient who was faking it.

      I remember that episode! It was quite a story, very funny! I remember the one about the woman who was going in renal failure because she was constantly rubbing forcefully her belly to expel the demon inside. She had been cursed and was responding to this curse the only way she could. In the ER they tried to help her , finally they reached out to a community center form her ethnic background and they performed a sort of exorcist. She was relieved afterward, her demon had been taken out and she stopped the rubbing motion, her kidneys were saved. Beliefs are strong sometimes.

    I actually remember that episode with the kid. The reason he called his wife is that episode air probably over 15 years ago which means the story was well before that time so it was a time before translators were more easily accessed. Also the reason they were trying to get to the bottom of it was because every time they thought that they had gotten the kids stable he would suddenly go back into anaphylactic shock. Turns out that he was allergic to something the parents were feeding while in the hospital. They weren't being malicious they just had no idea that he was allergic to an ingredient

    I was a nurse in a level 1 trauma center for ten years. I don’t remember ever seeing any thoracotomies preformed in our ER. It’s a possibility that it happened on a shift I didn’t work but something like that would have made it’s way through the hospital quick! Most hospitals, especially large hospitals, have operating rooms dedicated to trauma. There are entire teams of nurses and surgical techs that can also get an OR ready for any surgery very quickly. If a big trauma comes into a hospital and the trauma OR’s are in use it’s common to have a non-emergent case be pushed back. I should restate to any emergency can push one that’s not life threatening. It’s not only frustrating for the patient and family but for hospital staff as well. We want you to get better, be healthy; it’s why most people go into healthcare.

    I actually remembered this episode. The kid that was having an allergic reaction was brought in and after some time being treated for it, he seemed to be doing better. Only when the family started to arrive did the kid suddenly start going into anaphylaxis shock again, hence why the doctor was then trying to figure out the cause of it. It turned out the kid's family either owned a bakery or was making some baked goods for an event or something and the recipes contained lots of nuts. The family members trying to visit them were still coated in the stuff so the kid would suddenly start having another reaction.

Just that travel to the location is time they lose to stabilize the patient and get them to an ER. Because the guy in the show is a paramedic he saves the ambulance a lot of time because he can monitor the situation and administer to the patient long before the ambulance gets there. To give him benefit of the doubt i dont think that was ego i think that was him saying "im a paramedic and because of that the other paramedics had a lot of extra time to stabilize her that they otherwise would not have had."

    10 years ago i had a spontaneous pneumothorax and let me tell you, they place a tube in your chest and it straight up feels like you’re being stabbed from the inside. Turned out the collapse was caused by a pulmonary bleb or visceral pleura. Had a hand full of them, had 5% of my lung removed and the collapsed lung was attached to my chest wall with scar tissue.

      @sheenashroder5315 4 ปีที่แล้ว +37

      I wouldn’t say every one of the stories on that show is completely far fetched. There’s people out there who have irregular periods, are on birth control, or bleed like normal without ever knowing they were pregnant. My friend had normal periods with her pregnancy, and she had no idea she was pregnant! With some people’s bodies, they simply just don’t show enough to make them think that they are pregnant. They might notice a slight weight gain, but it’s such an insignificant amount of weight, it can easily be mistaken for typical weight gain from lack of diet and exercise. Sometimes it’s just where the baby is positioned in the body. Or if the women is heavyset as well. I think there was an episode I saw where a women even went to the doctors and they all just said she was overweight, until she was doubled over in pain due to labor. I’m not totally surprised by the stories because sometimes the symptoms are so minor they could easily be passed off. Or it could just be complete utter denial. Idk there’s just so many factors, and not every pregnancy is the same. I think there’s a TH-camr who is an OBGYN who reviews the episodes if you want to check out her channel. I can’t remember her name off the top of my head though.

      Supply and demand, there is a limited supply, the demand is rising, and a large portion of the supply is ropped off yo be given away for free.
      Insulin isnt cheap to make, and with so much of it being basicly stolen by the goverment (purchased at like 1/4 cost) they have to pay for the production of all the insulin, paying their employees, and developing new drugs from the profits of only about 30% of the product.

    I have come across two car accidents in the past two years. One was a driver and the other was a pedestrian involved in a hit and run. Both were unconscious. One had no pulse and the other did. I was trained how to do cpr but froze and panicked when this happened both times. I asked someone if they could do cpr on the one without a pulse even though I knew it was basically pointless. But on the driver I didn’t want to further injure her. If I would’ve just started chest compressions maybe she would’ve lived. But hearing you say that if someone’s unconscious to start chest compressions really confirms that if this happens again that’s what I need to do. I’ve panicked both times and I still blame myself but now I know that what I was thinking would’ve been the right thing to do. So thank you.
