History* And wrong history = wrong diagnosis Taking history and examination and discussing it with professors is so hard and stressful cause if u forget to ask about 1 thing ur grades arr doomed
As a radiologist in training I must admit: This is one of the deepest videos I have seen in a while. Also chest X-ray order that just says "chest X-ray" is a thing.
After a car accident the radiologist saw a bullet. I was born in and lived in the USSR until it fell. I had honestly forgotten about being shot at that point and they came rushing in desperately looking amongst the blood for an entry wound. After much thrashing me around someone thought to include me I'm a conversation and I let them know I had been shot when I was 6, its no big deal. For an American hospital they seemed weird about a 35+ year old bullet and where it was from. I got exceptional care for my actual injuries though.
@@Variety_Pack right? Thats what raised my eyebrow. You see people shooting each other daily, but a kid getting shot in a country that no longer exists during a time of communist rule is heartbreaking? At least what happened to me was explainable to a degree.
@@4realjacob637 But don't wear extra clothing in a small town. Got the cops called on me. Later, an obviously illiterate clerk got angry when I used the word "toxins" to answer the question "Why not just use sunscreen"?
Thanks for a good laugh this morning doc! As a radiology coder, this sort of thing is the bane of my existence! Every time I have to code a report with no findings and vague, borderline unusable indications for why the exam was done in the first place, I die a little inside. I'm begging you, please tell me exactly why this patient needed their left foot x-rayed so insurance won't deny it as unnecessary 🥺
@@dr.floridamanphd The purpose of the x-ray is to help you answer a question. Explain what the question is that could be answered by an x-ray and you have justified the x-ray, it is really that simple. If you can't formulate the question, chances are that the x-ray is not justified, and you should re-think your choice of tests.
Please see attached 80 pages for patient history. "Starting nearly seven million years ago, Sahelanthropus tchadensis began walking upright. We're unsure exactly why they did this, but it is believed [...] and thus, we need a CT scan on Mr. Jones' leg as soon as possible."
Damn. Ortho docs notorious for leaving us rehab (OT, ST,PT) in the dark about their post-op recs and weight bearing etc. like would it kill y to at least include weight bearing!? Hahaha! Also love it when they write turtle shell back brace “for comfort” 😂😂😂 ummm I’ve yet to meet the patient who wants to wear one of those things let alone for “comfort”
ER DOC HERE ! This is very true !!! SOO Accurate ! Radiologist NEED a story that way they know what to look for and where to look and they will be able to provide a much better report. I do my best to let them know. Is NOT an easy job :/. I do see my patient first ! :)
Rad/CT/sonographer here…words can’t say how appreciative we are of docs like you, especially at 0200! As retired military I’ve worked many places and though some facilities required the referring physician to contact the on-call radiologist first, many don’t. Having a thorough history really helps us to get what the radiologist (and you) need for a prompt and correct diagnosis.
@@hinotefanatic Wow ! Thank you ! Yes we have a section on all our orders where we are supposed to write that info BUT yes some just put pain, or STAT. And you guys are the experts at getting the images (Gallbladdder,etc) STay safe
When I get scans in the ER, the techs always ask me "what's hurting, what happened," and all that. They aren't the doctors but I feel like all the parts are being educated to get the info and hopefully it matches up in the end. I did work as a secretary in an ER center court back in 2007, the stories rarely match up 🤪
I remember this! Since I worked weekends I had the unpleasant task of telling the ER docs that stat or pain was no longer an indication for a CAT scan or an x-ray. They had to give some kind of history in order for insurance to reimburse. You would’ve thought that I’d ask them to beat their wives and children! Oh the memories!😂😂
please do a video with sterile processing technicians! we dont get notice much since we work behind the scenes! after all we are the heart of the hospital! love your videos! much love from Houston Texas💕
Hey! As a radiolographer, I can say that there are also requests for repeat x-rays without any indication if they did anything to the patient, note that most of the times we just took an x-ray of the patient the same day 😂
Hey as an icu doc, we look at progression as the grey areas getting blacker equals good and grey areas going white equals bad. So if radiographer has got exposure settings garbled you're gonna get a repeat cxr as I don't my good progreasion as demonstrated by the levelling out tlc counts.
@@nhilistickomrad4259that's all well and good but they're stating about the fact there's no clinical history relating to a repeat. If you're aware of radiographers then you also are aware that under IRMER guidelines you are required to give correct information relating as to why you're asking for the xray. All it takes is a quick note saying "reviewing consolidation, ?resolution" a Radiographer rarely dicks around with the exposure factors especially within enough of a range to completely screw up the contrast balance
Maybe I need to be a radiologist haha, I have a delayed sleep phase sleeping disorder and I don't like bright lights anyways ;) "At least he saw his patient before ordering scans" hits so close to home
I once worked for an ER Doctor who would let the nurses order all the tests for the patients. He would never look at the X-rays. More than once I had to walk up to him with an x-ray and say “hey Doc what do you think this is?”. He would scream “oh my god where is the patient?” and I would reply “being discharged”. Fun times….
Yeah. I should have been a radiologist for sure. I'm "dark adapted", and I get comments all the time, even from family, like, "Why is your living room so dark?", or, "It's like a cave in here. Why don't you open your curtains and let in some daylight?" That one from my daughter's father. I swear that was one of the biggest reasons we didn't stay together.😊 Well, no harm done. I wouldn't want to be married to a non-dark adapted "Daylighter."😅
Being a Traveling Radiologic Technologist I can say this is very true. I often feel like I should be dressed as the Gorton's fisherman instead of in scrubs because the vast majority of CTs are frivolous and essentially a fishing expedition. It does make me wonder if ordering physicians half ass their job when ordering medications or just when it comes to Radiology orders, especially from the ED because I'll routinely receive orders to inject contrast to patients who are allergic to it; often never seeing the patient, let alone performing their due diligence in checking the patient's chart.
As someone that works in radiology department, this is too accurate...lol Please indicate what is needed be brief but precise & not everything is Stat!
@@vickyvkusnyatina6126 So ordering STAT for anything requires a review & consult by a radiologist, and only approved if absolutely necessary. They do not like to be disturbed if not deemed a true emergency.
As someone who works for an MRI company....this hits so hard....the amount of orders that just say pain....or have no clinical indication at all is mind blowing
as someone with a friend who’s diabetic i can’t get enough of these skits lmao, i always try to go with them whenever they’re admitted because it can be lonely and i’m often wondering what’s happening behind the scenes these skits are so good ✨
I have no connection to the medical world as a profession but I love these videos! I love learning about the people in the uniform. Makes them more like people and not just the doctor, idk if that makes sense but yeah
Tbf as a Radiographer SOB is a valid indication for a chest xray. It's absolutely the bare minimum but it can be justified. My favourite is "CXR please thanks" with no other indication or "portable please" with absolutely no clinical history. Like is the patient coding or are they walking around with nothing wrong with them... Which tends to be the case
As someone who works in registration for radiology, this is so true.... we have to put in the ICD 10 codes and just putting 'pain' is never good enough.
Disclaimer: Not a radiologist but I am a radiographer. "Pain" isn't a helpful clinical indication. We need to know where the pain is. How severe is the pain? How long has it been painful? Is it due to a recent injury or has it been there a while? Does the pain only come when doing certain activities i.e. walking? That sort of thing
Lol I’m not a dr but I worked as a scheduler in a radiology center… reading orders from drs and I relate to this so much. Ortho always ordered STAT even if it was for something that could be scheduled later 😩
OMG, spot on with the ID H&P's. My hospital's ID doctor is one of the most thorough, and I love to read through his patients' H&P's to find a full family history dating back to the 14th century.
"Hello ortho Dr you have asked for a repeat xray because you want a true lateral. The previous xray is perfect what do you want me to change?" " rotate it externally 1 degree" "The patient now has a cast on that twists there arm in the most convoluted way they are also waking up from sedation and are very aggressive how about you come down and help and show me what you want" "the previous xray is fine, no need to repeat" 👍
Having broken my ankle and healing it in half the time, the person who pretends to be a doctor, doctors buddy, blessed me with the sign of the cross, I briefly inhaled the insanity that is doctorry stuff!! Thank you!!!
Fucking yeeeeees. I'm an x-ray tech and the history for any view is just "[insert body part] pain". Then they get mad when I don't do the special views that they didn't ask for. Props to all of them for even putting the order in before sending the patient over though.
As a CT/xray tech, this is on point!!! ER is terrible about not seeing the patient before ordering. Ortho-"you had an xray 2 days ago? Let's get a repeat" or STAT CT, but we will see patient next week... Our infectious disease indication is always "fever unknown origin"
I work as a radiographer and from my experience, ENT and pulmonology, writes the best histories Ortho has good histories but often requests obscure and rare exams that are often unnecessary in hopes of impressing us because they know the rare and special exams when in reality we pull up a book or look it up because we completely forgot that those procedures exists
I have never wanted to be a doctor. Having an academic career never interested me. But I love being on the outside looking in laughing at your videos. I find that world intriguing enough to read novels watch shows and laugh at videos on the internet.
Used to work at an orthopaedic surgery centre. Can confirm accuracy. What Ortho WANTS is six different angles of weight bearing and non weight bearing X-rays of the knee. What ortho ORDERS is “knee.” Then expects the techs two towns over to just know that when Dr. So-and-so orders knee X-rays it’s ortho protocol.
Omg 😂 I had no idea there were all these dynamics between doctors in the hospital. I always thought there was a specific name for every scan 🤣 I’m learning more every day and I love it 😍
Classic!! When I worked in open heart recovery, the other physicians (renal, cardio, endocrinologist and others) would stop and write orders. All would treat a high potassium or other problem differently. The surgeon had the bottom line say. Me as a nurse was to prevent the others from… well, let’s just say to keep the others in line, until the patient was transferred to the cardiac floor.

I have never wanted to be a doctor. Having an academic career never interested me. But I love being on the outside looking in laughing at your videos. I find that world intriguing enough to read novels watch shows and laugh at videos on the internet.
Used to work at an orthopaedic surgery centre. Can confirm accuracy. What Ortho WANTS is six different angles of weight bearing and non weight bearing X-rays of the knee. What ortho ORDERS is “knee.” Then expects the techs two towns over to just know that when Dr. So-and-so orders knee X-rays it’s ortho protocol.
These characterizations are just so spot-on.
I love this man, those facial gestures? Priceless.
This is so true!!!! Trauma, pain, fall, injuries are the main 4 reasons, I see on orders. I am a radiologic technologist (RT) R.
Omg 😂 I had no idea there were all these dynamics between doctors in the hospital. I always thought there was a specific name for every scan 🤣 I’m learning more every day and I love it 😍
This is guy is a treasure! His videos should be a course. Godspeed!
As a former med scribe who worked with multiple specialities, that really bought me down to a memory lane.
As a medical imaging appointment scheduler, I felt this.
I don't know anything about medicine but these shorts are hilarious! Great content! Clean and funny haha
Glad I found this page
I work in surgery this is hilarious
That dermatology burn was great!🤣 My dermatologist never worked Fridays.
Classic!! When I worked in open heart recovery, the other physicians (renal, cardio, endocrinologist and others) would stop and write orders. All would treat a high potassium or other problem differently. The surgeon had the bottom line say. Me as a nurse was to prevent the others from… well, let’s just say to keep the others in line, until the patient was transferred to the cardiac floor.
I'm an RN and will read "histories by infectious disease" before anything else - they are detailed, and usually accurate. Saves me a ton of time.
Your videos make me think I would have ended up an infectious disease specialist if I'd gone to med school. Let's over explain to the max!
