Ann is absolutely amazing...she is so confident and calm...
No reason to get frustrated with James, he had a brain injury, he can't help his actions, he just needs kindness great job to the great doctors especially the lady who provided him with expert care on the road!
@@strugglingcollegestudent There is more than one voice saying it but of course he can't help his reactions. In that sort of incident there are sometimes too many people taking part in the scene.
I mean, he was clearly undertaking a lorry before a corner in their blind spot, there's a reason...
@@user-ws7lz5ph1e What TF has that got to with anything?! An accident happened, its about this person's treatment. Plus, how could you possibly know that! 🙄
I have watched the entire series and found it very enlightening and educational. I then went to watch NY MED, and was highly dissatisfied with the way it was filmed, and the jazzing up of the show. Trauma investigation was far more serious in its approach, whilst NY MED seemed far more disorganised and rather flippant. I congratulate Trauma Investigations for its hard hitting reality and the dedication of all those doctors, trauma specialists, paramedics, doctors, surgeons and nurses involved. I have great respect for all those involved in producing an excellent series. Thank you so very much.
Try watching Air Ambulance ER series by Reel Truth Documentaries. It's an excellent series and all available here on UA-cam.
I completely agree...and I find myself worrying about the financial implications for the US patients... I worked for several years in Australian emergency departments which seem very similar to the UK in their processes and attitudes....and healthcare here is free so for our patients there is no added anxiety about how to pay for their treatment..the impression I get is that in America, health is big business and not a Right, such a shame..
@@sksuck
Health care in USA is BIG BUSINESS, nothing more.
If one needs to go to emergency care, the wait can be from four to six hours, sometimes longer.
Never take an ambulance as that is an outrageous expense, upwards of $2,000.
Truly, if ever in USA DO NOT GET SICK, if you do get sick, go to Canada.
@@barbaralamson7450 seriously though. We have long wait times too, but at least an ambulance or hospital stay wont bankrupt a person.
Ann is a really professional, well done!
Who's watching 2020? These dr's are true heroes
All are NHS Staff are the BEST In the world, PERIOD! Stay safe, Stay well, AND PLEASE keep to the social distancing. Thanks for your comment sue sue. xx
I am watching - and I agree Sue Sue. Take care of yourself!
I am
We need an NHS in the united states

These doctors are literally angels.
Wow...these doctors are brilliant!
Those nurses and doctors and EMTs are awsome!
I just love watching her. She’s brilliant!
I just found this in my feed…this would be my dream job!! It’s got gorgeous paramedics, a helicopter, and gorgeous paramedics..oh, did I already say that?!?
Some comments were about James…I don’t know if they said why he was combative… if a body has major trauma, especially the head, your body has things that you don’t know…his body was in the fight mode that your brain tells your body to react to…I’m just on the little bit showing James in the start…some ppl that see a person fighting and think that he was being angry, but nope…that just means he needs to get to the hospital very quickly
These doctors are great 👍. For an E.R doc he has great bedside manner. In the U.S. some of the E.R. Doctors are over stressed and act like robots. The trauma team is great. So calm
This is not an ER, it's actually a Major Trauma Centre - Only a small number of hospitals (11 in England) offer this highly specialised and expert treatment. But if you need to be there you will get there. And not to bash the US but at no point will the patient or the treatment staff ever have to concern themselves with who is going to pay for the care - care being the sole purpose of a medical system and all...
I agree, America hospitals are very bad. It's all about money. They spending billions of dollars making hospitals look like luxury high rises, but wont assist in putting money into actual patient treatment and care.
clive ramsbotty I was in a trauma hospital in Montana. I paid my deductible for my insurance. With the insurance from the young man who killed my boyfriend and change my life forever. I had to give part of the $25,000 to the hospital. They did like that my bill was over $500,000. Funny...I thought that was why I had insurance.after I paid my lawyer and the hospital I ended up with $8,000. It still makes me angry. I lost half my right hand and my right leg above the knee. Yup...wish this happened in London
Agree. And American hospitals will find out what’s wrong with you and kick you out a day later. And then you end up back in hospital 2 days later. Sad.
It’s funny how people make America sound great in all areas, while it may have been like that a long time ago but now lots of places in the world that deal with hospitality beat the US 10 fold. I know that America is the best place if you don’t want to return home I’d rather go to the Middle East and see the horrors there then see it in America
As a air doctor I always feel horrible if somebody dies. I feel so bad.
Don’t feel horrible. Your efforts are amazing. Dying is sometimes unavoidable. All we can do is our best. Those who you have helped and those who you tried to help will have appreciated you too.
Brilliant episode and brilliant show. Dr Gareth Davies is both a superb physician and has a wonderful rapport with his patients. A true example for all doctors. But all the medics are fantastic.
I wish the United states would treat people like this and have teams like this the United states suck as far as medical professionals and quality of care
do they not? I know healthcare is "billed" in the states but I thought it was good quality?
Doctors & nurses in the US lack the compassion and ethics of their own profession. I myself worked in the medical field & hated the way we treat ppl. Lot of the times it was hard for me to keep my mouth shut telling others how to do their own jobs.
Yes the US has a long way to come but at the moment it doesn't seem likely to change!
Bless them all
*Guy screaming about pain in his right hip.
*Guys daughter says he’s having a lot of pain to his right hip.
Doctor….”He seems to be having a lot of pain in his right hip.”
I think the guy had pain in his right hip.
22:22 A person walking over a Zebra Crossing with a Police car with light and sirens just meters away.....Amazing
Spanish Blog what is a Zebra Crossing?
If I understood correctly when explained to me, it's a crosswalk.
A bit late to the party, but zebra crossings are marked crossings of which pedestrians always have the right of way to cross.
Unlike a so called pelican crossing, which has the traditional "wait and walk when the green man shows", zebra crossings are a constant green light for pedestrians present, 24/7. Vehicles must reasonably stop to accommodate people waiting to cross, failure to do so is a driving offence.
The reason why it's silly that a person is walking blindly over the zebra crossing is because despite that person technically having the right of way in most cases, they should have been aware that a police car might not have been able to reasonably stop in time had they crossed in the path of the vehicle. Emergency services vehicles on blue lights and sirens have the right of way at a zebra crossing over a pedestrian, that's really the only exception. Alot of people forget rules like that, or they'll blindly step out in the path of a moving car because *technically* they have the right of way. Unfortunately being right doesn't always coincide with the momentum of vehicles travelling along the road.
Since you've been watching this program in its entirety, no doubt, you probably will have seen that alot of accidents involving cars-v-pedestrians are caused by pedestrians assuming that just because they have the right of way, that they are perpetually safe to cross.
Hey Phillips and am
Heyyy
Hope James recovers ok. My 25 year old daughter has heart conditions and can be hooked up to monitors that can be seen at nurses stations, she's had nurses rush into her room twice because she'd had a heart rate as low as 35, and she'd be watching tv or listening to music. Some of her conditions can make it go really low. She has a defibrillator/pacemaker so we know shes safer now lol.
Wishing I could move to England from USA! The elderly man stayed in hospital 2 1/2 weeks with no significant injuries after a fall down the stairs. I had a major lower spinal and upper cervical surgery and was sent home from the hospital only two days after surgery with a hard neck collar and back brace. It was horrible as there was no one to help me. So happy that the UK cares more for its people than for financial gain!!
Believe me they pay a price. It looks good on the surface but not is all as it seems. I used to live there knowing first hand.
The hospital is the worst place to be when you just need to recuperate and don’t have an acute need. Data shows you do better at home, need less pain medicine, and are more motivated to move around which is one of the most important things after any surgery. I don’t care what country you live in, get out of the hospital as soon as you can.
@@lisastorey6142 What are you on about? What price do we pay? 🤔 Higher taxes? Gladly, I'd gladly pay to get the service we receive here in the UK. I don't have to worry about the most valuable asset me and my family own, our health. It does not depend on how much money I have. That is priceless. Peace ✌🏽
Love these doctors. So calm and nice and Anne is a badass. She's good and so confident. Love it. Would Love to work with her for a few days. I would learn so much. But my endlish isn't that good to work in a English native country.
Poor James has a head injury and does not know what he is doing.
Thankyou so much to the medical people who save our lives! You people are incredible!!
James James James James I’d be confused too.
This happened to me and they kept me for a week until I could eat then sent me on my way. It was horrible. Took me 6 months to feel better. Never found out what it was that caused it
Awe Nana is so sweet ❤
I’ve watched every episode you’re are all legends
Doesn’t matter what day it is when you’re retired, unless it’s Christmas or something. We don’t care once we’re retired. I don’t anyway. I do what I want, when I want, regardless of what day it is.
Sheila is such a tiny sweet old lady!
middleC17 ij
In the US, Sheila would be sent home within two days with antibiotics.
@@professionalcommenter And/or she wouldn't have taken an ambulance...plus she'd have sat in the ER for HOURS!
Poor poor james, you could see how much pain he was in and how confused he was, bless him. Hope hes doing good now the poor man
Yet they talked to him like poo
@@Realistceceno they didn't!
When I worked in A&E we nicknamed bikers "organ doners" (hospital dark humour) I quit riding bikes after 6 months of starting work there.
Here in Poland we call bikers "donors" too. Im still riding my bike because if I wanted to eliminate every risk in my life I would have to stay in bed 24/7 and give up every bit of fun life has to offer..
I had done at hospital. Total misery and pain. Poor man. I can feel his pain.
Thinking about if any of these people were in the US just how much it would cost them.
Tens of thousands or more, and they still nitpick at our system and complain about it ahahah
I'm on holidays...I have no idea what day it is either :/
Pointless frivolous comment. Who gives a fuck what you think?
dear, sweet Sheila!
I've never seen sidewalk surgery.
Well, now you have.
God bless, Sheila. She looks like such a sweet lady.
Also, lady at 22:22. Wake up! Lights and sirens are not an invitation to continue crossing the road at a leisurely pace. Some people.
The constant scene cuts are very disorientating.
Primal instinct is to flee and hide after an injury. James is running on his primal instinct. He doesn't do this himself, but his brain is trying to save his life. Get out of the place of accident and hide.
You see this with any type of injury. Some people respond extreme.
As a doctor or nurse it is hard to treat someone that is acting like a spooked deer. They can hurt you real bad, and they don't mean to.
Cushings reflex in first case , very cool.
James...all best!
asking an older person what day it is (date or day of the week) sometimes isn't really the best way to make sure they are aware of their surroundings. Many retirees live blissfully unaware of what day of the week it is. A better one is what time of day or what month/season/year
Great observation. I keep telling my mother's doctors the same thing. She's 84. The only day she cares about is Sunday.
Shoot I'm 33 and sometimes I'm blissfully unaware of what the date is, not the day though. I'm a stay at home wife.
I was thinking the same thing, I'm 39 and self employed and I completely lose track! I think in this case it could be down to editing out a lot of the examination for the program though.
Errhka old people still watch their soaps and old ppl tv so im sure they know what day it is. Just because your old doesn’t mean your completely oblivious of what day of the week it is. You have to take in account that they also have birthday partys and functions they attend and so will check the dates. Moreover they have much more free time than the younger lot so are thus more inclined to know the date than their more youthful counterparts
Totally agree. I am on disability and I NEVER know the date. I do usually know what day it is though (kids go to daycare, that's why).
All the doctors nurses do a great job
After watching a lot of these kind of episodes (as a person that happens to take multi medications with a few other issues) I am now looking into getting a 🏥Medical Bracelet (they also have necklaces and keychains🏩 now as well😊. I didn't know)...
I think it would be a grand idea as seeing sooo many people that are in "unable to talk situations" or the docs puttin people in sleepmode to save their life. That medical info is so deadly important to know, really life or death. Quite scary actually if you think about it.
Something to think about for you peeps out there that have ailments that are affecting your life too
MizzzKitty yes I bought one too. I’m physically disabled, have hip dysplasia, on a ton of meds and have tons of spasm triggers brought about when I’m incorrectly moved or my legs are bent against gravity.
Best Medics ever ❤♥
Mahboobeh
I'm sorry, but I laughed hard for about 5 minutes 😂😂
my son had a major bleed in his brain the resus team could not stop it and after treating him for a while i had to sit and watch my son die, unless you have had a similar experience you could not understand the helpless feeling as he slowly died and there was nothing you could do.
I‘ m so sorry for you. Dramatic loss.... be blessed.
I am so sorry for your tragic loss!!! Prayers for you and all your family!!!
David Hood my condolences. a parent should never have to lose a child. I couldn't imagine what you went through.
yeah how should they stop a brain bleed thats not possible without complicated surgery
David Hood my mom bled in the brain. I came a doctor. Now I’m a 23 year air doctor
Amazing content, cool show, but the jumpcuts! The constant changing of perspectives and flashes etc make me so dizzy and disorientated! Is anyone else finding this the case?
How times and things have changed since i was a paramedic 30 odd years ago 🤔 😕
Anita from Kent UK 🇬🇧
The description for this episode is for the previous EP8 not this one.
Well, thank you, Paul, for taking the time to write this, you very silly pedantic oaf.
the last sentence written just before ending titles kicked in ruined the whole magic....
I don’t work at present due to Covid, but even before then, so if they asked me what day it was I probably wouldn’t know either.
When ann retirees imagine how many ppl would be fucked. Shes saved a fuck ton of ppl. Absolutely amazing woman
lol ROFL OMG !
22:05
... ah mad cant get out of the chopter !!!!! hahaha
Ann is great what a woman
Their ERs seem much less noisy and frantic than US ERs on this show. Maybe its the editing.
yeah sure if Theres real rush the camera Teams move out the way
It seems that the ER's there practice ONE VOICE ONLY, instead of some/most of the ER's here, where EVERYBODY wants to shout orders - very bad practice
@@johnstewart6366 ...well, you know, it's not a 'show'. It's a documentary. And, in Britain, as you see here, there is a presiding clinician. Everyone has their job, but he controls the situation.
No not at all, here in the uk, we don’t over dramatise nor feel the need to jazz up our documentaries, we deal in facts not viewers needs !
is a Lorry a truck or van?
Two and a half week hospital stay? We get thrown out after three days!
The header comment description is an episode out of sync.
3:25 😱😱😱 They are not moving his neck that way. If he didnt have a spinal injury to begin with, he does now, with how much they jerked his head around...WOW!!!
What does A and E stand for please?
a pedestrian just crosses the road when there is obvious lights and sirens...whats wrong with people
15:19 what is that small white circle?
Thalamus or dens probably
The wheels on the bike 🚴🏽 go round and round
James is gorgeous!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
James...JAmes...JAMes...JAMEs...JAMES!! I don't think James can hear you.
Deemaree Dubois It's called Reassurances whether James/patient can hear you or not.
He was awake and agitated. They were trying to get him to calm down.
The wheels on the bike 🏍️ go round and round
The doctor went full potato on that old lady patient lol
ikr
Bossman21 H
TAVOR VICEROY VALDOR HAHAHA so true
I don't get it and I feel left out 😞...
What the hell does going "full potato" on a patient mean, never heard that phrase in my life
The echo voice in between is a bit crinchy
does this Dr. know they dont care what he says ? YOU HEAR NO THANKYOU. and then SHE MAKES FUN of the Dr !!!!!. wow.
Why is there two different HEMS teams present in the first case (and why did it seem like the first team hadn't started to do anything?)?
artspooner was most likely another on call team, even with the London air ambulance they can have more than one trauma team available to respond in cars alongside their helicopter! I can only guess that the first HEMS team had just finished primary survey and inspecting the patient when the helicopter team arrived, this is probably why it looked like they hadn’t done much, as a lead clinician it only made sense for her to essentially take over his care from her arrival, but yes to answer your question it was just another on call HEMS team, quite common in larger areas it’s just the majority of patients aren’t lucky enough to get 2 teams at once! (Plus the helicopter was probably requested by the first doctor who had arrived with his team via vehicle)
@@alexmurray1987 Sometimes have volunteer Docs too with BASICS arrive on scene first.
It’s so sad to see that most hospitals may not or don’t care about the patient but about money but these people in UK are different as their faces and behaviour tell that they work to help and understand what is not known, money is worthless here and has no value this is a hospital not a luxury hotel being used as a hospital
That's why we lead the world in emergency trauma treatment, because it's not about money. It's about compassion and care for the patient. Lesser nations charge people to be looked after and cared for, but universal health care free at the point of contact, is the only way to behave in any responsible and civilised society.
Doctor made a mistake with the thoracotomy. Should have listened to his lungs closer. I am an advocate of taking patient straight to CT scan if they are hemodynamically stable. By the time the patient is back to the Trauma bay they know exactly what to treat and when.
With which patient did you think the mistake was made?
YES! I was thinking the same. That frustrated me so much. And, while I understand how it is so critical in timing to save lives and get blood and air so the heart doesn't stop from pressure, when you have a bunch of hands nearby even in the er where it is more sterile, use some damn iodine before cutting the skin.
He wasn't stable though he was bradicardic & his chest was crackling with a head injury. The thoracotomy enabled them to transfer him too hospital as he would of died in the transfer due too the pressure build up in the helicopter due his 2 collapsed lungs which would of put extreme pressure on his heart causing a cardiac arrest which is extremely difficult to treat mid air. Even in hospital he was still unstable post rsi.
Coz you’re all on scene trauma docs, of course.
@@TiggiTheWillful exactly
I wish the US would do this. It makes so much sense.
Who's watching in 2021? 🖐🏼
not many thumbs up...........
very telling.
why do people agree thumbs down ?
Because of the stupid editing choices..
Don’t forget people do have experiences such as NDE’s
X13:19 the fluctuating heart rate might indicate that he has a high tolerance to the sedatives and keeps fluctuating his consciousness level
It would of settled down if that was the case.
It's possible. My good friend is highly tolerant to sedation and so the few times he's had to be sedated the poor doctors have had to play the up and down game to keep his pain managed while not sedating him too deeply. Though it could have also been due to the severe head injury.
2 many commercials.
These lot seem unprofessional 😮
11:42 kira friend
oh no! in America you would have to use antiseptic before the cut , we would have a whole sterile area no matter what
7:01 kira friend hi
Why do they not use iodinenor something b4 the thorocastomy (sp)? Or maybe they just didnt show an alcohol clean??
They normally do, they don't always show it, but certainly have several times that I have seen.
these DR dont move him why
......
right ?
NO BRACE FOR NECK !!!!
holy fucking jump cuts and camera shake
Imagine having to relief a pneumo thorax on the roadside because your cheap ass health service wont pay for (proper) box ambulances. This country is f....
My "major" heartburn with these doctors is - judging by the fact that the majority of these patients complain that they have no memory of the accident which resulted in their injuries, it's obvious no one explained to them that it's common to have amnesia regarding the events surrounding a head injury. I think a simple explanation of the fact that this is pretty much normal, and no cause for concern, could alleviate at least some of their concerns.
Yes,telling James, a critical patient in a lot of pain, to relax, really helps. 🤦♀️ SMH.
Were In the hell is his neck brace
Again, a chest incision with no tube? Why?
KittyMom 419 finger thoracostomy is a common initial pre hospital management to rapidly release intrathoracic pressure. It is quick and simple to perform. If the pt retensions, reinserting fingers will release again. If pt continues to tension a chest drain is indicated.
Tube is only needed if also priority to drain fluid, or it keeps closing before they arrive at the hospital causing the lung to start deflating again
poor equipment
poorer perception.
And so james is simply in their incompetant LIMITED hands.
O you can do a better job i suppose right?
guess guess guess guess.
all they do is guess.
FINALLY they find the BEGINNING crumb - Xrays .
wow. dont go here.
I have so much respect and admiration for all first responders, regardless of where you're located...You are nothing short of angels!!! Thank you to everyone who selflessly put their own lives, at times in danger to help and save others...After watching this show, I can only say the United states should take some pointers on how to treat their citizens as human beings and not money... Our healthcare system is so shameful compared to Europes.
Probably with the elderly lady maybe alzimers
No, Robert. She was confused either because of the moment or the UTI. And if you are going to suggest a form of dementia, then get the spelling right: Alzheimers.
