Day in the Life of a DOCTOR: MEDICAL EMERGENCIES

Поділитися
Вставка
  • Опубліковано 7 лип 2024
  • Join me for another night on call - this time with multiple emergencies overnight! Find out what a day in the life of a doctor is really like... from paperwork to life-threatening emergencies! How do we get our call room keys at this hospital? How many pages do we get during the day?
    As a junior medical resident, I do 26-hour call shifts where i see patients on the ward during the day and i admit patients to hospital from the emergency department at night. You can never anticipate what it will be like - each day has it's own surprises haha!
    PATIENT ENCOUNTERS:
    6:30 Describing the patient I admitted overnight and their diagnoses
    FEATURED QUESTION OF THE WEEK:
    7:29 When do doctors get paged at home?

      I think her energy is super refreshing. I do wonder how long it'll last, though. A lot of times, people become jaded or just sorta level out as they gain more experience. My surgeon is a chill guy. But he definitely doesn't have that glowing enthusiasm for new adventure that I've noticed from younger people in the field. Just a personal observation.

I collapsed at home, heart rate was up near 200bpm bp was sky high and was put on warfrin(i think that's the way it's spelled) to dissolve the PE. Was also put on IV antibiotics and had to spend 5 days in the cardiac ward because the infection was making it hard to stabilize my heart rate and BP.

    I'm happy to hear you're dictating! Been an acute care medical transcriptionist for 30 years! Unfortunately, my job is slowly going away because of EMR. Did you know some doctors dictate while driving, while eating or chewing gum, while yelling at their kids, in the OR with metal instruments clanging/echoing, at the nurse's station (always a party I swear), at their kid's baseball game, at home with dogs barking/kids screaming, using speaker phone is always a favorite, in the bathroom, etc.? Always fun is the surgeon who rattles off an entire operative note in one breath or the doctor that wants a copy sent to "Dr. Brown" but doesn't say WHICH Dr. Brown. :) Thankfully, most doctors are good and considerate dictators. I love what I do and have so much respect for doctors. I'm so glad I found your channel! Best of luck to you.

    Have been binging your videos like crazy for the past couple hours, it’s always so interesting to see stuff like this! I just had a question, when you go into a sleep room if someone had sleep apnea and required a mask to sleep in case they stopped breathing while resting would someone be able to bring their mask with them? I understand about being on call but I’m curious if someone with sleep apnea would be able to bring their mask with them or not
