I was suffering from toothache In 1 tooth for 2 weeks. Woke up one day and couldn't swollow My throat was swelling and kept on doing so I went to the doctors she took one look and said go straight to the hospital Went to the hospital with a letter from my doctor and I was seen within 15-20mins They sent me for a operation more or less straight away I woke up 2 days later after been in a coma Woke up with 3 teeth removed 2 incision in my throat with drains and drain bags Eneding up having another operation I was in hospital for 19 days I had no taste I couldn't even swollow my own saliva Or talk I had to communicate using a pen and paper And was left with a feeding tube for more than 6 months I couldnt eat or drink I regained my taste after 2 weeks Which was a relief even though I couldn't eat anything And no matter how much fluid I put in my feeding tube I was always thirsty and that feeling never went away unit I could drink again Lucky I pulled through I wouldnt wish that on my worst enemies
@@ldus the toothache was from a abses which ended up turning to sepsis The funny thing is they never ended up taking the tooth out which was causing me pain But took 3 other teeth out When I went into hospital I weighed 63kg when I left hospital I weighed 50kg due to me not being able to eat It's crazy how much strength you lose just from them two days in a coma 👍 Just another little thing I was able to hold my nose close my mouth and breath out of the drain pipes in my throat
@@Trve_Kvlt Usually the pilots aren't paramedics. They may get some basic medical training from their air ambulance charity, but most of them are just regular pilots who can help with simple tasks such as holding things and carrying stretchers if necessary
I lost my senses of smell and taste in 2013, along with a whole list of other injuries, after being hit by a speeding car, who incidentally never stopped. I'm still hopeful i will wake up one morning and it has come back, but in reality i think i know it never will.
Surely he would have died if they did not do to on scene procedures that they did. Nice job guys! And I am amazed at this young man’s attitude it’s great considering he was knocking on heavens door 😁
RSI i rapid sequence intubation. It involves giving IV midazolam, propofol, fentanyl, and sux (or any other paralytic) then putting a tube down his throat.
Versed and propofol have largely fallen out of favor as induction agents, especially in the field. These meds are also more likely to cause vasodilation as well as negative inotrope. Ketamine and and rocuronium are a good choice here with this trauma patient. Etomidate would have also been a good induction choice as it is very hemodynamically stable. Succinylcholine wouldn't be a bad choice if that's what you have.
RSI is Rapid Sequence Induction. It puts the patient into a state that then allows advanced airway management which MAY include Intubation but not always! They are two separate procedures.
It's not just TH-cam; it was a TV programme following the work of paramedics. It couldn't have been broadcast unless the patient had subsequently given consent for it to be, and given that he appears later in the segment he clearly had. There will be many hours of filming that never saw the light of day because consent wasn't given. The UK has very strict privacy and data-protection laws.
How long have they been allowing the helicopters to do night ops?.. They used to be limited to day VFR (no instrument flying) only operations in the past I believe.
It's called Helicopter ER. They usually put the name of the show at the end of the title or in the description. I love watching NightWatch clips on youtube

GB is far ahead of Germany in almost all aspects of emergency medicine. But one point is always sad to see: how the RSI has to be performed outside of the ambulance. Doesn't that suck, especially when the weather is bad? Exposing trauma patients to the cold environment is not very reasonable either. You definitely need bigger ambulances, in Germany we at least got enough space in ours to do all the treatment inside.

why are the young staff students standing around explaining to the camera man? when they can leave the police to it? they arnt getting paid enough to explain what happened. I would have just left saying nothing screw the manager.
And here you can see why British Ambulance Cars are completely bullshit and really bad designed. Instead of making the intubation inside the Car they have to go OUTSIDE because there is not ENOUGH space inside! Wow! What a bad construction!
They're actually bigger on the inside than American and European ambulances in general. We take people outside of the truck to allow for 360 access to optimise intubation position. If you've ever intubated you know that position is 90% of the difficulty. Of course we can intubate with them on the stretcher in the back of the truck but why would we consciously make it a more difficult intubation.
We don’t have to do it outside the ambulance but there is no point moving into an ambulance to do one procedure to then come out of the ambulance again to go in the helicopter.

I was suffering from toothache In 1 tooth for 2 weeks.
Woke up one day and couldn't swollow
My throat was swelling and kept on doing so
I went to the doctors she took one look and said go straight to the hospital
Went to the hospital with a letter from my doctor and I was seen within 15-20mins
They sent me for a operation more or less straight away
I woke up 2 days later after been in a coma
Woke up with 3 teeth removed
2 incision in my throat with drains and drain bags
Eneding up having another operation
I was in hospital for 19 days
I had no taste
I couldn't even swollow my own saliva
Or talk I had to communicate using a pen and paper
And was left with a feeding tube for more than 6 months
I couldnt eat or drink
I regained my taste after 2 weeks
Which was a relief even though I couldn't eat anything
And no matter how much fluid I put in my feeding tube I was always thirsty and that feeling never went away unit I could drink again
Lucky I pulled through
I wouldnt wish that on my worst enemies

Merry Christmas 👍
I really like how the pilots help. They don't just stand around with their hands in their pockets.
Agree. They all like working as one big medical team.
Well, the pilots aren't just pilots afterall. They're usually paramedics themselves.

@@evanhill110 Fair enough, might be a US thing then. I've at least heard of pilots being basic EMTs, or even some being paramedics themselves.
They aren’t just pilots, they are doctors and paramedics aswell.That’s how we do it in the U.K. 👍🏻
At least he's alive. To have to deal with the issues that he has to now is a small price for what could have happened. Glad you're doing well.
The team did a fantastic job to save his life. Lovely to see him at the end of the video 🙏🏾❤️

Relatively recent change, I believe. It largely only applies to emergency and military helicopters, though.
Does anyone know what show this is called? This reminds me of the show called Nightwatch. It's just like this!!
It's called Helicopter ER. They usually put the name of the show at the end of the title or in the description.

Says in the title, Helicoper ER 😊

That's supposed to be trauma doctor puts patient into coma. At least label the title correctly
Don't British paramedics perform RSI? Australian paramedics do, and I'm sure British ones could.
@@coover65 Dont carry the appropriate kit so no they cant
Both dr and paramedics can do the procedure as long as a dr has given the green light and enough training to do it
@@mehtevas9321 only a Dr in the UK can do it
The pilot is a trauma doctor, he literally says that
I also would like to know what is the title of this show. The description here says "Helicopter E.R. but the voice over (narrator) is different.
"Helicopter ER" is right, there might just be different narrators in other series

I would have just left saying nothing screw the manager.
I was hit by a a van they made me get up and walk to ambulance
As bad as that is, the fact that you were able to walk means you were 100x better off than this chap.
And you clearly were able to do so .
Drama queen.
I really don't think they needed an rsi
And here you can see why British Ambulance Cars are completely bullshit and really bad designed. Instead of making the intubation inside the Car they have to go OUTSIDE because there is not ENOUGH space inside! Wow! What a bad construction!
at least they don't cost around 1k dollars to bring someone to the hospital
they were going to move him to the helicopter anyway, German ambulances are no bigger, if not taller ta are larger ambulances
