You should teach professors how to teach! I sat through a 4 hour lecture on this topic and came out more confused! I listened to your video and it totally made sense! Thank you for what you do! You are truly a life saver and are helping me get through nursing school!
First of all, I just want to say how thankful I am for these videos. I recommend your videos to all my friends who are in nursing school and to those who are about to take their NCLEX . While i was studying for my exam, I would always watch your NCLEX playlist as my review and would play it in the background while doing chores. Ive recently taken the exam and passed it!! Your acid base videos and the mnemonics associated with them were so amazing. I will always remember "acidotic" "alkali" "depress" and "tachypnea" and your tic tac toe method. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart. You helped me pass NCLEX.
Congratulations on passing NCLEX, Jamie! THANK YOU very, very much for coming back to let me know my videos helped you prepare for NCLEX...that is so awesome! I'm so happy you liked my mnemonics....they definitely make learning easier and more interesting. I wish you the best in your nursing career as a nurse, and again thank you very much for taking the time to watch my videos. Congrats to you :) I hope you have a Merry Christmas!
I had a Spontaneous Pneumothorax. I'm not sure if it was primary or secondary as I'm a 5ft1 45 yr old female smoker for 20 yrs. I couldn't breathe fora week, my boss at work pushed me to go to ER by ambulance and after a chest X-ray was told I needed a chest tube immediately. Couldn't believe it! Ended up in the hospital for 14 days and on the 8th day, had VATS Pleurodesis. Never smoking or vaping again. But I'm afraid to exercise, run, use a trampoline, travel you name it. I read that there's a 50% chance of it happening again. Dear God.
Hands down my favorite comment of the day! It made me laugh :) What would us women do without those makeup videos..there are some amazing tips out there! Thank you for always watching my videos and for your awesome comments ;-)
Oh my god thank you! Your videos are amazing. Everything is beautifully explained and your notes are clean and neat. Thank you so so much. You have helped my learning a lot I don't know what I would have done without your videos honestly. I pay my university heaps of money but their quality of education is nothing compared to yours. Thank U!
Let me firstly say thank you for these amazing lectures. I'm a foreign trained RN preparing to write my NCLEX. I had spontaneous pneumothorax 4 times in 2012 and had it corrected. I still have intermittent stabbing pain in my right anterior chest up to today. I'd like to know if that's normal.
Taking a Progressive Care Course test, your videos are great review since it has been 4 years since the NCLEX, great refresher, especially your cardiac videos.
Wooow, am from Kenya and i had to come back and comment how greatly your lectures have helped me as a student and future registered nurse. Its brief and simple to grasp. Thanks to you. Blessings to you
Hi Hi I am RN and your videos are really cool. just one question, I have looked after couple of patients with pneumothorax and when I check their chest xrays, it really gets me confused whether its the heart in white part or actually shrinking of the lungs. is there any way to better read the xrays?
Mam i have shortness of breath since 2017 after my nose septum surgery...but since last month suddenly the frequency has increased...i struggle to breath sometimes during day and i have itching and burning sensation in hand and feet...plz tell me.
You are a gift sent from heaven to me. Helping grasp understanding of my med surge rotation. What i read in text book go in one ear and out theeee other and the instructors go so fast in their lecture. Please dont let up. How can i make a donation ?
Thank you so much for watching the videos. I'm so glad they've helped you :) I appreciate the offer for a donation, but I prefer that you just tell as many people as you can about our free UA-cam channel to help them through nursing school. Thank you again for watching the videos :)
Im actually sitting in a hospital bed as im writing this, Ive got pheumothorax. Been here for about a week. I know my doctors are tired of me asking questions so i figured id youtube it lol
You are an angel send from God! You are so knowledgeable and know how to explain everything to detail and much more! Thank you for taking your time to spread your knowledge with so many and help us understand everything much better! You are awesome!
Thank you so much for all your videos. You are better than any teacher I have ever had. I love how you simplify everything. I am doing so well in my nursing degree because of you!! Please don't ever stop teaching. You have a gift! :) xx
Your videos are so good!!! I was struggling on the physio for DAYS and no natter how my professor broke it down for me, it just wasn't clicking in my brain. I watched this video and now have immediate godlike power 👊 Thank you!!!
Hello I am back for exam 4 of Summer Patho and then the final...grades are good...thank you sooooooo much...you will be with me during nursing school and beyond...Love you and many more blessings to you, your family and your patients!
Hello and welcome back :) I'm so glad my videos are helping you through this summer semester too. I will be right here to help you through next semester too and for NCLEX. THANK YOU for using my videos...that is so awesome! Also, thank you for your kinds works. I really appreciate them!!
Hi thank u for ur video. Ur video r so usefull. I learn a lot from ur video. I have exam on october. Can u please upload some videos of fundamental knowledge and professional and ethic. Thank u i am waiting for ur video
I just went into hospital on the 1st of August 2023 because I had a Spontaneous phemothorax. Had the drain fall out on the 3rd day. So they just sent me home. Said I still have fluid in there. But I need to go back for a scan on Monday 14th august
Thank you for this very informative video...I will take NCLEX, and this video is very useful. I love the way you explain, it's very simple and easy to understand. More videos please. I love to hear more from you Ma'am...
I have a question. Is there another name for a closed pneumothorax? I have looked through my textbook and it never mentions "closed" pneumothorax. Thanks!
Your book will probably refer to it as "spontaneous"...which is a type of closed pnemuo because there is no damage to the chest wall which contributed to the pneumo. I hope that helps. Thank you for watching the video :)
hi, when you study for exit hesi which book did you read? I have both books u recommended . I have less than 4 weeks to prepare .reading and comparing both books plus watching your videos. I like it but I find more time consuming and having less time practicing questions .. which book should I focos on the hesi or the Saunders book? what Is your recommendations? .. thank you in advance!!!
Hello :) For the exit HESI specifically, I read the HESI book mainly, but I used the Saunders software (which comes with the Saunders book) to practice NCLEX questions. The exit HESI book didn't contain that many review questions as compared to Saunders. Be sure you pay close attention to the HESI hints in the book (questions come from this material) and the end of the chapter questions. What I done was I would read a section in the exit HESI book....say respiratory and then I would practice strictly respiratory questions by selecting this on the Saunders software. It really helped me! Since you have 4 weeks to prep (which is plenty of time)...practice questions everyday and make a study outline of what areas you plan to study and start with the areas you struggle with. Also, of courses, take the questions the HESI book came with as well. I wish you the best on it! I hope that helps :)
Great Videos, really helpful for studying. The way you go through things is so straightforward and easy to follow, helps clear things up I don't get in lectures first time around. The drawings behind also make it very easy to link everything together x
I am an international educated nurse and was graduated long before. Moreover, I had to challenge the nursing exam. Apart from lots of books, which I studied, I have to admit that your videos helped a lot to understand every thing better. Finally I had a very good test result. Profuse thanks for your wonderful videos.
Wow, thank you so much, Sara :) I appreciate your kind words very much! I'm so happy my videos helped you prep for NCLEX. Congrats on passing! I wish you the best in your career as a nurse in the US. Best wishes :)
Hello Sara :) Glad my videos could help you for your SEC exam! I'm honored you are using my videos to help you prep...thank you for that! I wish you the best on NCLEX! Thank you for this comment, and I hope you have a very Merry Christmas!
Hello dear Doctor Thank you so much for your intersting lessons,i do appreciate your job.I wish you peace and happiness under the sky of prosperity. Take care and have a good time. All the best. Your Student from Algeria.
Thank you so much . I was struggling to understand Pathophysiology of Pneumothorax for 2 days and your lecture made me understand in 18 minutes. Thank you so much for this informative video
Please, please, please continue doing what you do. I love your lectures, it’s very professional, informative and I’ve learned a lot. It’s very easy to understand and follow.. Thank you🙏🏽
I REALLY LOVE LOVE your videos!!! I always learn so much!!! Thank you so much for doing this lecture in such an easy to understand way! Wish the nursing instructors teach in the way you do! Thanks again!
I’m 24 years old and have had 5 spontaneous pneumothorax over the course of 7-8 years. 7 chest tubes placed, 4 minor 3 major and have had a pluerodesis done. My most recent was the 4th of May this year. Nobody can tell me why this keeps happening to me so I guess I’m just gonna be dealing with this for the rest of my life. Can’t explain how fed up I am with this.
Thank you so much for all you do, you literally taught me through out my nursing program. I attend lectures but i always looked forward to your teaching. God bless you

Great video! really helped me understand pneumothorax better than anything else I tried. Could you make a video on Cystic Fibrosis?
Thank you so much for the comment. Yes, I most definitely plan on creating a video on CF in the near future. Thanks for the suggestion.
