Really serious question right here- so when I was a kid I was sharpening my pencil and ended up getting my palm stabbed with the super sharp pencil. Well, it hurt so I took the pencil away thereby managing to break a small part of the tip and got it stuck in my palm. It hurt and I didn't have the courage to remove it, nor did I bother to tell my mom about this until I showed her how the skin had restored itself and now the lead is kinda trapped in my palm. It's been 10 years. It's steadily getting in deeper. I can still see it. What now?
Dr Mike, I'm writing this comment here because this is your latest video. I wanted to tell you how grateful I am to you. Because of your videos explaining the importance of CPR and chest compressions I was able to save my mother when she had collapsed due to syncope from aortic stenosis. She had choked on water she was drinking while this happened and was not apparently breathing. Thank you so much for spreading knowledge about medical matters to the public. God bless you always.
7:27 - Orthopedic surgeon here, those are called surgical loupes. The ones they used in the movie are Zumax SLF 2,5 and there is nothing wrong with their position, what you see here it’s called a declination angle. If the loupes were covering his field of vision they would have forced the surgeon to tilt his head forward leading to neck pain.
It always makes me happy reading the comments and seeing specialists weigh in to add in information that’s particularly related to their field which he is unaware of. I know the point is for reactions but I’d wish that he would during these reactions also look up these things and then let know ‘Oh, I wasn’t aware of this but this is a thing’ or something. So to not completely debunk something or make fun of it.
The same concept is used for elderly using bifocals/PALs, embedding the reading prescription on the lower part of the lens to complement the patient’s “reading” angle.
Loved the freakout when he called her bringing out the paddles. Maybe he should go to Hollywood and show them some accuracy, before he gets a heart attack from all their failed resuscitations
Rest In Peace: Doctor Mike. Cause of death: went to show Hollywood how to deal with a flatline properly. Got a heart attack from their failed resuscitations. Since they were Hollywood, they failed to do chest compressions on him.
@@anaalina5964 it's to buy time, but to revive someone they may do a few things. Not the paddles. Those are more for irratic heartbeats to get them back into rhythm
"Okay, he's flat lining. If she takes out the paddles, I will scream." The next second "SHE'S TAKING OUT THE PADDLES! STOP CHARGING THEM YOU DON'T SHOCK ASYSTOLE!" Then comes my favourite part "CHEST COMPRESSIONS CHEST COMPRESSIONS CHEST COMPRESSIONS!!"
What's Doctor Mike medical opinion on the MCU constantly electrocuting Thor, the God of Thunder, in all of his movies? Is that some sort of pathology, or maybe a... fetish???
Well, I see it as with Superman. What's his source of power? Radiation (a yellow kind). What makes him weak? Radiation (a green or red kind). Fetish, Big Blue?
I believe his lightning is magic and increases his resistance as he uses it. Whereas normal electricity can still affect his nervous system when he's passive.
There was a scene in Dr. Strange where he raised his hands after washing them before surgery. Another guy reviewed it and said this is what doctors actually do. For my first science experiment in seventh grade we were testing different methods of hand washing. I did the Dr. Strange method and had the best results. Thanks Marvel :))
Yes, before surgery you wash your hands with special scrubs and rinse them keeping the hands above the elbows so that everything goes down away from the hands. You then keep them like that until you dry them with a sterile towel. Even after putting on a sterile gown and gloves (it's a process for sure) you don't let your hands go below your waist to prevent them from touching anything nonsterile.
I’m a physiotherapist but I can share something, the needles on Dr strange hands at 8:37 are basically just external fixation that have the same use as the internal needles in ORIF operations for broken bones (aka Open Reduction & Internal Fixation) they just keep the bones immobilized until fully healed I’ve seen it once on tibial fracture but never on hands though..
This. Funny how working in hospitals all his career he says he never saw it. I'm totally unrelated to medical stuff and I have seen it dozens of times in my life. But the amount in his hands? Just once in someone's arm.
They used external fixators for every finger, that's why there are so many. It's used when there is not enough bone to use nails or screws or too many fractured pieces of bone. Bone needs to be immobile in order to heal properly. I cannot imagine how Dr. Mike does not know that, or see it in patients regularly.
@@jasonmason2471 i mean, when was the last time you (or someone next to you) crushed their hand so much they need something like that? (and goes to a family doctor instead of the er)
"WHOA, WE DON'T DO IT LIKE THAT, BRO!" I laughed hard at this. I'm no medical professional and even I thought the way she was holding the thing was all kinds of wrong.
I instantly had to thought about using long screwdrivers. Keeping one hand close to the screw to lead the tool to the right part. Shouldn't be that different with a needle of this size, one hand where the thing has to go to make sure it lands in the right spot.
Your comment about hearing loss in Iron Man scene reminded me how they actually touch on that in Hawkeye TV show. He basically lost most of his hearing due to being a normal human working as an Avenger and constantly being surrounded by explosions. And he has hearing aid.
@@fartyfat6539 Yeah but I'm honestly starting to think that BW's got some AliExpress version of super soldier serum during their training. That's the only semi-plausible way to explain how much punishment their body can take. I mean, Natasha is basically at the level of super soldiers in FATWS minus the enhanced strength.
He seems to have no use for the paddles. If chest compressions only delay the inevitable, what should the doctor actually be doing to get his heart going since the paddles do nothing?
Just a fun thing I learned in university- Tony Stark turning to face the blast directly might’ve actually helped reduce the damage to his ear drums. When something explodes or there is a loud bang and someone turns their head away, they often turn it to the side and expose one ear to the direct blast-way more likely to mess up your ear drum. We had to be warned of this in a chemistry demonstration of igniting different types of combustible gas in balloons lol
I just knew it that the last scene would get you :D But for the movie it was actually good that Christine did it wrong because while Strange was on the table, his astral form was fighting some bad guy and the electricity of the shock helped him survive this fight.
I got so unnecessarily overjoyed when Dr Mike shouted out occupational therapists, I’m currently in college trying to get a degree to become an occupational therapy assistant. So many people don’t understand how important their job is and what they really do, so it’s nice seeing Dr Mike acknowledge and shout out so many different health professional fields. :)
My father was getting a colonoscopy, but the medicine to put him asleep didn’t work. But he didn’t know if that was supposed to happen so he went through the entire procedure awake. Then at the end he said “Am I supposed to be asleep..?”. And the doctors freaked out. (Also some comments are saying he was meant to be awake, but the doctor said he was supposed to be knocked out lol😝)
The exact same thing happened to my aunt a few years (?) ago. She asked the doctor in the middle of the procedure what he was doing and he freaked out lol
Truth! Watching his face change lol like he is trying to hold it in at first but when the scene starts to unveil our beautiful Cap in all his glory, Watching Doctor Mike’s face change, light up and tilt the other way with the smile that I know all too well, because it’s the same one that comes across my face. It’s truly the best reaction video of that scene!
@@lizwonder09 Basically what defibrillation does is that it resets the acitivity of the heart cells if their activity is uncontrolled (ventricular fibrillation). In asystoly there is no activity and therefore nothing can be reset which is why defibrillation does not work in this case. What does this mean for someone non professional giving first aid? Never stop doing chest compressions until medical staff takes over. If there are more people close by someone can go searching for a public defibrillator. These devices tell you what to do and can decide for themselves if a patient needs defibrillation or not. But the most important thing always is that there are continous chest compressions.
@@lizwonder09 While it's not ONLY Ventricular fibrillation. Essentially defibrillating someone is meant to re-start their heart, when there is electrical activity going through the heart (shows movement on the EKG) that isn't actually generating cardiac output, so they don't have a pulse, or the heart isn't effectively pumping blood. So, the only three times you shock someone. Ventricular fibrillation (the ekg looks like it's having a seizure) Ventricular tachycardia (if the heart is beating so quickly that the ventricles are just going on their own, and you dont get the normal heart look on an EKG), that doesn't generate a pulse Any other pulseless electrical activity, if the EKG detects something, but you can't feel a pulse, they need shocked. Otherwise, it's epinephrine, atropine, or lidocaine, and CPR.
@@MrUssy101 You’re watching a video that’s completely about the thing you’re against. All of that can be fixed by watching the movies yourself and not have a doctor around.
That ending with the chest compressions was seriously hilarious. Also, chest compressions are forever burned into my brain, exactly where they should be :)
I found this channel yesterday and I'm already obsessed with it. He's explaining everything professionally and I feel like I'm in a lecture. True respect.
It as if your in a lecture with someone who not only knows the subject,but definitely love it enough to keep you entertained. I also discovered Dr. Mike on FB and had to find him here
*Dr. Strange is flatlining* Mike: "I swear if she takes out the pedals, I will scream" Christine: *proceeds to take out the pedals* Mike: ***CHEST COMPRESSIONS CHEST COMPRESSIONS CHEST COMPRESIONS***
@@royalkelin Asystole means flat line which means there is nothing to shock. No electrical activity. It wouldn't do anything. In cases of flat line you need CPR to do the job of the heart and adrenaline injection to hopefully get the heart to start again where it either needs a shock to get into proper rhythm or recovers on it's own.
"My worst fear is waking up in the middle of a surgery. I think its everybody's worst fear. People just don't think about it." --- Thanks Doc, like there wasn't enough with my overthinking and anxiety issues. PS: Love you and your videos.
My worst fear is waking up during chest compressions while my ribs are stabbing my lungs and I die suffocating and in pain. 🙂 Needless to say if I'm dying I don't want chest compressions.
I use to be an orthopedic rep, that scene where his hand has pins in it is actually very common (although that’s a more severe case, I only did that to one pt in 4 years). It’s called an external fixation device where you place that unit in order to realign the bone and hopefully avoid future plating of the long bones!
my dad had one for his leg looked like a literal cage with very large pins going into his leg so it was much larger than this one for the hands but that was like in '04 due to a really bad motorcycle accident
I have seen them more for the arm in the past, but never a hand. But I worked in a sub-acute rehab and if you had a high profile surgeon like Dr Strange they would be getting the best of the best in a big hospital or specialty rehab center. (Not because those facilities always have better results, but because they steal the best patients for themselves so that their stats look good. They also do admittedly also probably hire more specialists).
11:38 has to be the funniest thing I have seen in a while . Mike going absolutely berserk about Christine pulling out the paddles is hilarious. Chest Compressions ! Chest Compressions ! Chest Compressions !!!!!
“Ok, he’s flatlining, if she breaks out the paddles I’m going to scream”. Commence scream!🤣. I love your no nonsense yet compassionate approach to your job! A huge thank you to you and your fellow doctors, nurses, all those who have been working tirelessly these past couple years to do what you can to help those suffering from this pandemic! And, my sincere apologies to you for those who make your job so much more difficult than is necessary! You truly are heroes in my book! Take care!✌🏽
Gwyneth to RDJ: “I don’t feel I’m qualified to do this.” Mike, as if speaking to Gwyneth: “And yet you feel qualified to give many people bad advice via Goop!” Me: “KA-Boom! The hammer comes down on pseudoscience
Oh yeah! I can picture that too, not to mention hear his laughing! If I knew it was him, I'd so laugh along! His laughter is the best med he could ever give me!
Dr. Mike: “Waking up in the middle of surgery” - I think that’s everyone’s worse fear, we just don’t think about it enough Me: Now I can’t stop thinking about it…
It really wasn't that bad for me, considering the numbing effects of the anesthetics were still going. I woke up during my wisdom teeth extraction this January. Fortunately, the only thing I felt was them doing something really forceful inside my mouth with some sort of power tool, lower left side, but since I was still comfortably asleep enough that it was the same type of awake as sleep paralysis, I just didn't do anything about it and went back to sleep.
I saw like a movie recap where a someone woke up during surgery but they couldn't do anything and felt everything during the operation. The pain was so much that he started crying silently while they were operating on him Safe to say I didn't sleep for a week after that
My dad woke up in the middle of his triple bypass. He still has nightmares from it, and it's been like close to 20 years since then. He had a triple bypass in his mid 30's, and he is 56 now. Also, when he woke up after, he had flashbacks to being in the war, and took out a nurse on accident, he thought he was back behind enemy lines again and the nurse was a enemy. they knocked him out again, and when he woke up a second time, he was completely restrained. I feel really bad for the poor guy, his major surgery was a complet experience for him.
I had a fraction of a second awake when I was intubated 6 months ago. I remember it vividly but I think my brain knocked itself out again because I woke for real 2 hours later not intubated.
Oh my God. I can totally relate to this scream 11:39. My grandfather was on a flatline and the doctor never did any of this paddle. Well, it was the nurse. We kept on chest compressions for 5 min. straight to revive his heart (he said) while telling us to move muscle on his feet legs or anything. Yeah, that was my grandfather's expiry. But I know for a fact he lived well and we did our best. Miss you lolo.
That’s sad man, my grandfather died due to incorrectly performing chest compressions, leading to heart rupture, and there weren’t any professional doctors present either, my condolences to you. I feel your pain
08:46 Thank you for just mentioning Occupational theraphy. Not a lot of people know about it, even though we (myself included) are such an important part of the rehabilitation/habilitation team of healthworkers.
Hey, I kinda relate to it too. I was a patient with a severe crash accident where my upper right leg was broken. It was so long for me to recover from that, I never got up from bed for a month and I can barely walk normally for 6 months. I had Occupational therapy which is really helping me out especially physiotherapists.
It makes such a big difference. I'm pretty much sure my Granny is still walking because of rehabilitation. She had problems with knees from a very young age, had a surgery on both of them because she has broken her knee caps. And everything was fine until some time ago. She couldn't bend her knees, and had to have rehabilitation again, they still pain her now but she is over 80 yo and still walking every single day and enjoying life and i'm so thankfull for that! You're very important!
As someone who was a nutritionist, and is now in NP school, the GOOP burn was unexpected and AMAZING! I have had so many patients ask me about the nutrition advice they saw on GOOP. 🙄
8:19 Hi Doc Mike! I’m a recent MD graduate and starting Internal Medicine residency. For the scene I timestamped in Doctor Strange, I’ve seen some before and it’s an External Fixation device for fractures. The ones I’ve seen though during my orthopedic rotations were just two fingers or at the legs and they look very close to the one in the movie but I’ve never seen so many in one (this case two) limb/s before. I live in a developing country so they are still used around here but maybe the ones you encounter now look better or maybe the orthopedic surgeons you know are more adept at practicing Internal Fixation method for fractures instead of the external type.
9:06 that was very useful to hear, I'm 2 months past a tibia shaft nail surgery and even tho I can jog and do basically anything climbing down stairs is still a big problem - we addressed this in physical therapy and he realized I'm struggling too hard and lowered the intensity so I felt like a loser. Thx for clarifying this is medical protocol and I'm not a loser lol.
As someone who has awakened during surgery (while intubated, even), it really wasn't that big a deal. It was confusing, but the doctors put me right back to sleep. No harm, no foul.
How was it? Were you super out of it? I had my wisdom teeth removed over the summer and they only used general anaesthesia, but I couldn’t feel any pain and was honestly barely conscious. It was like being in a constant state of almost falling asleep where your dreams start to bleed into reality. Was it anything like that?
Yeah they're pretty quick about handling things lol. I remember with one surgery I had I didn't want to wake up lol XD But they kept saying my name until I did so I was like "fine fine, I'm awake." lmao.
@@user-wh8qx1xi3k You're lucky you got that because I was AWAKE during my wisdom teeth removal x.x I didn't feel pain because of the three gum shots I had, but I still felt all the pulling, twisting, tugging...yeah...not fun.
When he said he's gonna shout if she brings in the paddles, I knew she's gonna do that and Mike shouting and then flexing the chest compressions tshirt😂😂😂 God that was so funny.
Imagine Mike's reaction if he saw all of Bucky's torture scenes lol,I ain't no medic but I'm pretty sure that all those shocks would destroy someone's nervous sistem in no time
I thought the same :') i would actually be interested in a video by Dr Mike on the medical background/stuff of conditioning/brainwashing (via torture basically) stuff in media or rl.
@@Potato__o. It's easier to brainwash someone without going so overboard, I think. In any case, it's not the torture that causes the brainwashing, I think. See how Jehovah Witnesses and other cults do it with all legal means (see the BITE model, for example).
@@tymondabrowski12 Yes it's very possible to brainwash people (especially vulnerable ones) without that kinda torture, you're right. Manipulation can be done without any torture, for one. Cults can happen without torture. Bucky Barnes' case is an extreme example and also a Marvel character, so there's surely a fictional flair to it 🙈 still interesting tho, to me at least 😁
For those curious about the Dr. Strange section those are external fixators. We commonly use them in ortho for highly unstable fractures to stabilize them until further surgery can be done.
The network of metal sticking out of Dr. strange’s hands after his accident are K-pins and K-wires used to correct fractures. They insert it in during surgery and the wires realign and arrange the broken bones back into place and let the bone heal on its own. Then 1.5 to 2 months later, they are just pulled out, leaving no metal inside and minimal scarring. Until then, they remain like that sticking out of the body. I am typing this with a similar network of wires and pins sticking out of me AT THIS VERY MOMENT after having broken my shoulder and humerus in a lil accident a month ago. Ps. Of course, at the end of the surgery after the bolts are tightened, the protruding excess wires and pins are cut shorter and DO NOT stick out as much as they are shown from Dr. Strange’s hands. That was an exaggeration.
As a Marvel fan, as soon as I saw the thumbnail for this video, I was like, "Dude, I can't wait to see your reaction to the Doctor Strange stuff", and you did not disappoint Doctor Mike. I like how they made the whole paddle thing work in context with the fantastical elements of the story, but still, it's such an overused trope in all sorts of fiction, and it needs to stop. If I ever see a big blockbuster movie, and they do proper CPR instead of jumping straight into shocking them, I will genuinely be impressed, and I'll be like "Can't wait for Doctor Mike to react to this one!"
Well they are not making a movie of House MD so i don't see why everyone is so hateful to comic book based fictional movies for this inaccuracies. The guy is a sorcerer who was also a doctor. He must have sensed in same way that he has cardiac tamponade. Also she doesn't have anyone with her at that moment and Strange just arrived a minute ago and separate his astral self infront of her. It's natural that she forgot to do chest comprassion. These movies are belong to comşc universe not to our universe so maybe we should just enjoy.
I just saw Dr Strange recently and was yelling so much about the medical records. I like how his biggest problem was how LONG it would take him to find them vs GIVING THEM to someone who isn’t the patient 🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨
I think they would use the excuse that he is a doctor but yeah it’s still illegal because he’s not his doctor and hasn’t signed consent for his records to be shared with him.
I love Dr Mike’s reactions, there’s always soooo much geared towards the benefit of the patient, regardless of the fact we’re looking at movies here. We should all be so lucky to have a doc like that
SOMEONE ACTUALLY SHOUTED OUT OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY? THANK YOU! -an OTA. Also, me and a PTA friend looked at the Dr. Strange scenes for fun to try and think of what fine motor activities we could progress through, but that is a legitimately terrifying set of injuries.
Well actually, during that Iron man scene, when Dr. Ho Yinsen was operating on Tony, you pointed out many mistakes (which are correct IRL), but you should also acknowledge the fact that the whole operation was done in a cave, in the mountains near an isolated and poor village. So, we can pretty much say that they didn't have enough medicines and anesthesia to do the operation properly. And since chloroform is much more easily available, they must have used it. But still great and informative video👍🏻
i was hoping someone would point this out! As you say, I suspect the Ten Rings didn't think ahead to needing to do surgery on Stark and didn't get all the equipment they needed. Still incredibly terrible but at least primarily - if not entirely - *not* Yinsen's fault.
@@katherinekellmeyer5428 Yes you're right, it's not Yinsen's fault. As we know that The Ten Rings were given the job to KILL Tony Stark. But as they were paid less by Stane, they decided not to kill him for the time being and force him to make a weapon of mass destruction in a week's time. So I guess they told Yinsen to remove some of the shrapnels so that Tony will survive enough to make the Jericho. Anyways, thanks.😊
Does your chest compressions T-shirt have instructions for how to do them and a label for where on the chest is the best spot to put the hands? That’d be kinda cool.
For Doctor Strange, he did become a sorceror part way into the film, if it's a medical scene involving him after that point you just have to accept that a wizard did it and be on your way. (And all marvel movies have a heavy dose of comic book science, so there is that. Still would be better with those chest compressions)
"That’s not a good area to bleed from because that’s where the heart is" -Mike squeezing every drop out of that medical degree to make the student loans worth it.
The end when I knew she was guna bring out the paddle thing I was laughing so hard before she even took them out then his reaction made me laugh so much harder.😂
Basically, the paddles are used when the patient has an unstable heartbeat. Funnily enough, the purpose of the paddles is to "stabilize" an erratic heartbeat by inducing a flatline, which is then followed up by, you guessed it: chest compressions, chest compressions, chest compressions to restart the heart.
@@ArmageddonisUnleashe Always wondered about that. When my brother passed away (asphyxiated on vomit after a seizure) the paramedics had him hooked up to the automatic sort of paddles that would check if it needed to administer a shock. It kept saying no shock was required and I couldn't help but think "Why aren't you shocking won't that save him?!" They also had a pile driver type machine that was doing chest compressions. Unfortunately the vomit was too thick to get a breathing tube in and while they eventually stabilized him he was brain dead.
I DIED LAUGHING when this man yelled out CHEST COMPRESSIONS, CHEST COMPRESSIONS, CHEST COMPRESSIONS!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣 11:44 Fun fact: I’m actually a lifeguard , and I had to some CPR when I was getting trained for lifeguarding. My wrists hurt while doing chest compressions 😆
4:25 having had one a while ago, I can say from direct experience, the worst bit isn’t the sensation being uncomfortable, it’s that the bottom end of the tube has been in the gastric acid and juices of the stomach…so it’s not just a weird feeling…IT BURNS…
Dr. Mike is adorable when he says his goals for the "perfect body" is captain america's. It's like Chris Evans saying that Chris Hemsworth's is his body goals. Dr. Mike is my perfect man period. Which is why I'm always going to be a Spinster. I am setting impossible goals. I will never get tired of hearing him say "chest compressions"!
When she was tapping on his chest, she was imitating percussion. The principle is that if you use your second and third fingers of your dominant hand to tap the same two fingers of your non-dominant hand that are on the region of the patient that you wish to assess, the sound produced indicates different findings. If you hear a dull thud, there is most likely fluid build-up or a consolidation in that area; if you hear a tympanic sound, this region is filled with air.
We were taught at med school to use the middle phalanx of the middle finger of the non dominant hand as the pleximeter and the distal phalanx of the middle finger of the dominant hand as the plexor, which is used to strike the pleximeter. Looking at the clip, I'd say she got the striking method wrong, the movement of the strike is done at the wrist and not the elbow as shown.
Dr mike knows percussion (all med schools teach it, but I’ve never seen docs use it on exams lol), but it looked like she was percussing the spleen and saying the heart was clear lol
I’ve never used it in practice either (although I do remember having to do it on one of my practicals 😂), however I do know respiratory therapists that use it quite often to assess diaphragmatic excursion
You missed the best line in that Captain America scene! Steve: **trying not to freak out** Dr. Erskine: **injects him with a needle** Steve: **winces but finally relaxes** Steve: "That wasn't so bad." Dr. Erskine: "That was penicillin." 😂😭
for the tony surgery scene, I have anaesthesia awareness and it is pretty realistic, at least for me, to fade in an out of conciousnoess from the pain, and having ppl hold you down. I always felt bad for tony.
I would pass out if Doctor Mike reacted to *Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.* medical scenes. Jemma Simmons and her skills were always beyond me. :) That's the only show out of all shows and films that I find absolutely perfect in every way.
Waking up during surgery is only scary when you can see the stuff being done. I once woke up during surgery but the surgery was on my forehead so i couldnt see it. I dont remember the exact details cuz i was pretty young, but i wasnt really scared.
He should totally watch scenes from Agents of SHIELD. I want to see what he has to say about both Coulson and Daisy being brought back to life with alien blood
I love this breakdown! 🙏 thank you for the lessons Dr. Mike. And also in Disney+ Hawkeye, the main character is losing his hearing from all those blasts. So marvel is getting medically accurate :) haha. Hope you can do more of these breakdowns! The ending when you lost it was spot on 🤣🤣
8:25 I had a couple of those in my left hand when I got it stuck in a grinder, basically turning a section of the middle finger portion of the bone (but in my hand, not the actual finger) to dust. They called them “external fixators” if memory serves. A pair of pins went into the intact portion of the bone closest to the wrist, and another pair near the first knuckle. The pins were then bridged together by the metal bar, which is actually adjustable, from what I recall. It’s basically a temporary exoskeleton, or exo-bone might be more accurate, to stabilize a limb or digit that’s been damaged beyond simple setting and casting, usually put in during the initial emergency operation. In my case the 2nd surgery involved a bone graft, after which the external fixator was gone.
Hey Dr. Mike, big fan here! As a Marvel super fan, this was hilarious to watch! I do have to say though, Strange is an excellent example of fiction and real medical applications in the comics! Keep up the great work and would love to see more Marvel!

Hi Mike
Nice
Hello Mike
Really serious question right here- so when I was a kid I was sharpening my pencil and ended up getting my palm stabbed with the super sharp pencil. Well, it hurt so I took the pencil away thereby managing to break a small part of the tip and got it stuck in my palm. It hurt and I didn't have the courage to remove it, nor did I bother to tell my mom about this until I showed her how the skin had restored itself and now the lead is kinda trapped in my palm. It's been 10 years. It's steadily getting in deeper. I can still see it. What now?
Heloooooo
Dr Mike, I'm writing this comment here because this is your latest video. I wanted to tell you how grateful I am to you. Because of your videos explaining the importance of CPR and chest compressions I was able to save my mother when she had collapsed due to syncope from aortic stenosis. She had choked on water she was drinking while this happened and was not apparently breathing. Thank you so much for spreading knowledge about medical matters to the public. God bless you always.
good to know that she is okay :)
Glad your mother is okay ❤️
Nice to know that you were able to save her 🥺🥺😢

The pins at 8:35 is accurate, my cousin had them in his hand and forearm like that
I KNOW RIGHTT
true fangirl moment
I remember having a crush on Chris Evans during his Fantastic 4 era.
7:27 - Orthopedic surgeon here, those are called surgical loupes. The ones they used in the movie are Zumax SLF 2,5 and there is nothing wrong with their position, what you see here it’s called a declination angle. If the loupes were covering his field of vision they would have forced the surgeon to tilt his head forward leading to neck pain.
It always makes me happy reading the comments and seeing specialists weigh in to add in information that’s particularly related to their field which he is unaware of. I know the point is for reactions but I’d wish that he would during these reactions also look up these things and then let know ‘Oh, I wasn’t aware of this but this is a thing’ or something. So to not completely debunk something or make fun of it.
I was gonna say that 😀
loupes are also used by dentists
I was literally searching for comments on this to confirm if mike was right to criticize the movie
The same concept is used for elderly using bifocals/PALs, embedding the reading prescription on the lower part of the lens to complement the patient’s “reading” angle.

Is chest compressions suppose to buy time or revive patients? Mike said it was only for buying time until an ambulance arrive so I'm confused.
Rest In Peace: Doctor Mike. Cause of death: went to show Hollywood how to deal with a flatline properly. Got a heart attack from their failed resuscitations. Since they were Hollywood, they failed to do chest compressions on him.
@@anaalina5964 it's to buy time, but to revive someone they may do a few things. Not the paddles. Those are more for irratic heartbeats to get them back into rhythm
@@anaalina5964 same dude I was so confused
“That’s not a good area to bleed from because that’s where the heart is”
THANK YOU DOCTOR!🤝
So true lol
Ok doctor I will stop bleeding from my heart
Medical diagnosis: Ow
Wait that's the wrong part... eh, still funny.
And doc if you were to recommend, which part would be a « good » one?
😂
That was the whole idea there XD
"Okay, he's flat lining. If she takes out the paddles, I will scream." The next second
"SHE'S TAKING OUT THE PADDLES! STOP CHARGING THEM YOU DON'T SHOCK ASYSTOLE!"
Then comes my favourite part
"CHEST COMPRESSIONS CHEST COMPRESSIONS CHEST COMPRESSIONS!!"
I was laughing so hard at this 😂😂😂
His neighbours felt the chestcompressions earthquake😂
I tried so hard not to burst out laughing at this part it's so funny
The “chest compressions” could be heard around the world
I was so ready for it because I know the movie and new it was coming. I laughed so hard.

What's Doctor Mike medical opinion on the MCU constantly electrocuting Thor, the God of Thunder, in all of his movies? Is that some sort of pathology, or maybe a... fetish???
Well, I see it as with Superman. What's his source of power? Radiation (a yellow kind). What makes him weak? Radiation (a green or red kind). Fetish, Big Blue?
A running gag maybe??
I believe his lightning is magic and increases his resistance as he uses it. Whereas normal electricity can still affect his nervous system when he's passive.
@@Mansplainer2099-jy8ps which radiation, except the visual light spectrum, has color ?
@@MODElAIRPLANE100 You mean besides ultraviolet and infrared? But anyway, I was only half-serious when I said "the yellow kind" etc.
There was a scene in Dr. Strange where he raised his hands after washing them before surgery. Another guy reviewed it and said this is what doctors actually do. For my first science experiment in seventh grade we were testing different methods of hand washing. I did the Dr. Strange method and had the best results. Thanks Marvel :))
Yes, before surgery you wash your hands with special scrubs and rinse them keeping the hands above the elbows so that everything goes down away from the hands. You then keep them like that until you dry them with a sterile towel. Even after putting on a sterile gown and gloves (it's a process for sure) you don't let your hands go below your waist to prevent them from touching anything nonsterile.
It’s not the doctor strange method…
it’s simply called the surgical hand washing method. Doctors started doing this around the 1870’s, def not doctor strange method lol.
@@akaissy it's the Dr. Strange method goddamnit
I think its because he learned it from dr. S
I’m a physiotherapist but I can share something, the needles on Dr strange hands at 8:37 are basically just external fixation that have the same use as the internal needles in ORIF operations for broken bones (aka Open Reduction & Internal Fixation) they just keep the bones immobilized until fully healed
I’ve seen it once on tibial fracture but never on hands though..
This. Funny how working in hospitals all his career he says he never saw it. I'm totally unrelated to medical stuff and I have seen it dozens of times in my life. But the amount in his hands? Just once in someone's arm.
Quick update:
I treated a patient today with a similar fixation, I looked more into it and the type that is mostly used called Ilizarov fixation
They used external fixators for every finger, that's why there are so many. It's used when there is not enough bone to use nails or screws or too many fractured pieces of bone. Bone needs to be immobile in order to heal properly.
I cannot imagine how Dr. Mike does not know that, or see it in patients regularly.
@@jasonmason2471 i mean, when was the last time you (or someone next to you) crushed their hand so much they need something like that? (and goes to a family doctor instead of the er)
@@jasonmason2471 That would be because Doctor Mike is a family physician and not an Orthopaedic Surgeon.
"WHOA, WE DON'T DO IT LIKE THAT, BRO!"
I laughed hard at this. I'm no medical professional and even I thought the way she was holding the thing was all kinds of wrong.
I instantly had to thought about using long screwdrivers. Keeping one hand close to the screw to lead the tool to the right part.
Shouldn't be that different with a needle of this size, one hand where the thing has to go to make sure it lands in the right spot.

When was that?

Your comment about hearing loss in Iron Man scene reminded me how they actually touch on that in Hawkeye TV show. He basically lost most of his hearing due to being a normal human working as an Avenger and constantly being surrounded by explosions. And he has hearing aid.
except Black Widow seems to be fine after years of explosions.
actually she should have it worse since she's a close combatant unlike Hawkeye.
@@fartyfat6539 Yeah but I'm honestly starting to think that BW's got some AliExpress version of super soldier serum during their training.

He seems to have no use for the paddles. If chest compressions only delay the inevitable, what should the doctor actually be doing to get his heart going since the paddles do nothing?
@@robertmickelberg3720 chest compressions and epinephrine
Just a fun thing I learned in university-
Tony Stark turning to face the blast directly might’ve actually helped reduce the damage to his ear drums. When something explodes or there is a loud bang and someone turns their head away, they often turn it to the side and expose one ear to the direct blast-way more likely to mess up your ear drum.
We had to be warned of this in a chemistry demonstration of igniting different types of combustible gas in balloons lol
oh interesting
Oh wow! I guess it's just instinct to protect your vital organs in your chest over your hearing.
I gotta wonder why they didn't give you this useful thing known as hearing protection

The fact that Dr.Strange has the most inaccurate medicals scenes is such a mood
You could say his medical techniques are...strange.
@@xuvial1391 maybe. Who am I to judge.
Probably because it has the most medical scenes by far since he was a doctor

I just knew it that the last scene would get you :D
But for the movie it was actually good that Christine did it wrong because while Strange was on the table, his astral form was fighting some bad guy and the electricity of the shock helped him survive this fight.
At least she put them in the correct places on the chest
I got so unnecessarily overjoyed when Dr Mike shouted out occupational therapists, I’m currently in college trying to get a degree to become an occupational therapy assistant. So many people don’t understand how important their job is and what they really do, so it’s nice seeing Dr Mike acknowledge and shout out so many different health professional fields. :)
I'm proud of you, stranger. 💖 You're going to help a lot of people.
Haha me too!!! I'm an OT and when he said PT, I thought OTs were going to get overlooked again. All the best in your studies and career!

My father was getting a colonoscopy, but the medicine to put him asleep didn’t work. But he didn’t know if that was supposed to happen so he went through the entire procedure awake. Then at the end he said “Am I supposed to be asleep..?”. And the doctors freaked out.
(Also some comments are saying he was meant to be awake, but the doctor said he was supposed to be knocked out lol😝)
OMG
lol
The exact same thing happened to my aunt a few years (?) ago. She asked the doctor in the middle of the procedure what he was doing and he freaked out lol

The reaction after she took out the AED is golden. CHEST COMPRESSIONS CHEST COMPRESSIONS CHEST COMPRESSIONS
i dont understand then what is the purpose of the aed and at this point im really afraid to ask
@@lizwonder09 Basically what defibrillation does is that it resets the acitivity of the heart cells if their activity is uncontrolled (ventricular fibrillation). In asystoly there is no activity and therefore nothing can be reset which is why defibrillation does not work in this case. What does this mean for someone non professional giving first aid? Never stop doing chest compressions until medical staff takes over. If there are more people close by someone can go searching for a public defibrillator. These devices tell you what to do and can decide for themselves if a patient needs defibrillation or not. But the most important thing always is that there are continous chest compressions.
agreed 🤣
@@lizwonder09 While it's not ONLY Ventricular fibrillation. Essentially defibrillating someone is meant to re-start their heart, when there is electrical activity going through the heart (shows movement on the EKG) that isn't actually generating cardiac output, so they don't have a pulse, or the heart isn't effectively pumping blood.
So, the only three times you shock someone.
Ventricular fibrillation (the ekg looks like it's having a seizure)
Ventricular tachycardia (if the heart is beating so quickly that the ventricles are just going on their own, and you dont get the normal heart look on an EKG), that doesn't generate a pulse
Any other pulseless electrical activity, if the EKG detects something, but you can't feel a pulse, they need shocked.
Otherwise, it's epinephrine, atropine, or lidocaine, and CPR.

Everyone that watches Dr. Mike regularly knows it by now.
I genuinely love how with each video his strokes about shocking flatlining patients get more intense.
Anyone that takes first aid would know. You learn about how defibs work.
Although i've watched a good number of his videos, I don't remember what asystole is and why you can't shock asystole.
Can someone enlighten me ?
@@royalkelin Asystole means flat line which means there is nothing to shock. No electrical activity. It wouldn't do anything. In cases of flat line you need CPR to do the job of the heart and adrenaline injection to hopefully get the heart to start again where it either needs a shock to get into proper rhythm or recovers on it's own.
It makes me laugh so much to see Dr Mike have a meltdown over the inaccuracies!!! 🤣🤣🤣

I use to be an orthopedic rep, that scene where his hand has pins in it is actually very common (although that’s a more severe case, I only did that to one pt in 4 years). It’s called an external fixation device where you place that unit in order to realign the bone and hopefully avoid future plating of the long bones!
But didn't the fixations seem to be abnormally large?
@@nicholastrudeau7581 that’s about a regular size I’d say. They may seem kinda large because it’s on the hand I guess.
my dad had one for his leg looked like a literal cage with very large pins going into his leg so it was much larger than this one for the hands but that was like in '04 due to a really bad motorcycle accident
I have seen them more for the arm in the past, but never a hand. But I worked in a sub-acute rehab and if you had a high profile surgeon like Dr Strange they would be getting the best of the best in a big hospital or specialty rehab center. (Not because those facilities always have better results, but because they steal the best patients for themselves so that their stats look good. They also do admittedly also probably hire more specialists).
That’s what I thought too! I’m only in my first year being a radiology tech student and I’ve already seen this!

It really wasn't that bad for me, considering the numbing effects of the anesthetics were still going. I woke up during my wisdom teeth extraction this January. Fortunately, the only thing I felt was them doing something really forceful inside my mouth with some sort of power tool, lower left side, but since I was still comfortably asleep enough that it was the same type of awake as sleep paralysis, I just didn't do anything about it and went back to sleep.
Came here to say this 🤣
I saw like a movie recap where a someone woke up during surgery but they couldn't do anything and felt everything during the operation. The pain was so much that he started crying silently while they were operating on him
Safe to say I didn't sleep for a week after that
My dad woke up in the middle of his triple bypass. He still has nightmares from it, and it's been like close to 20 years since then. He had a triple bypass in his mid 30's, and he is 56 now.
Also, when he woke up after, he had flashbacks to being in the war, and took out a nurse on accident, he thought he was back behind enemy lines again and the nurse was a enemy.
they knocked him out again, and when he woke up a second time, he was completely restrained.
I feel really bad for the poor guy, his major surgery was a complet experience for him.
I had a fraction of a second awake when I was intubated 6 months ago. I remember it vividly but I think my brain knocked itself out again because I woke for real 2 hours later not intubated.
Oh my God. I can totally relate to this scream 11:39.

Hey, I kinda relate to it too. I was a patient with a severe crash accident where my upper right leg was broken. It was so long for me to recover from that, I never got up from bed for a month and I can barely walk normally for 6 months. I had Occupational therapy which is really helping me out especially physiotherapists.
It makes such a big difference. I'm pretty much sure my Granny is still walking because of rehabilitation. She had problems with knees from a very young age, had a surgery on both of them because she has broken her knee caps. And everything was fine until some time ago. She couldn't bend her knees, and had to have rehabilitation again, they still pain her now but she is over 80 yo and still walking every single day and enjoying life and i'm so thankfull for that! You're very important!

8:19 Hi Doc Mike! I’m a recent MD graduate and starting Internal Medicine residency. For the scene I timestamped in Doctor Strange, I’ve seen some before and it’s an External Fixation device for fractures. The ones I’ve seen though during my orthopedic rotations were just two fingers or at the legs and they look very close to the one in the movie but I’ve never seen so many in one (this case two) limb/s before. I live in a developing country so they are still used around here but maybe the ones you encounter now look better or maybe the orthopedic surgeons you know are more adept at practicing Internal Fixation method for fractures instead of the external type.
oh that’s really cool!
Yes yes
I'm a final year med student and I did identify those as external fixators.

Thx for clarifying this is medical protocol and I'm not a loser lol.
As someone who has awakened during surgery (while intubated, even), it really wasn't that big a deal. It was confusing, but the doctors put me right back to sleep. No harm, no foul.
How was it? Were you super out of it? I had my wisdom teeth removed over the summer and they only used general anaesthesia, but I couldn’t feel any pain and was honestly barely conscious.

😭😭😭😭
For those curious about the Dr. Strange section those are external fixators. We commonly use them in ortho for highly unstable fractures to stabilize them until further surgery can be done.
Is there any chance you're related to Billy Boyd?
Once Strange gets his powers I'm pretty willing to look past issues like "How'd he know he got stabbed there?" because he has *literal magic*
This was just a clever way for Dr Mike to binge the whole MCU over the weekend: “it’s for a video” and opens a bag of potato chips 😂
9:47 can we just take a minute to appreciate the therapist's happy dance? Brilliant, I love it.
The network of metal sticking out of Dr. strange’s hands after his accident are K-pins and K-wires used to correct fractures. They insert it in during surgery and the wires realign and arrange the broken bones back into place and let the bone heal on its own. Then 1.5 to 2 months later, they are just pulled out, leaving no metal inside and minimal scarring. Until then, they remain like that sticking out of the body.
I am typing this with a similar network of wires and pins sticking out of me AT THIS VERY MOMENT after having broken my shoulder and humerus in a lil accident a month ago.
Ps. Of course, at the end of the surgery after the bolts are tightened, the protruding excess wires and pins are cut shorter and DO NOT stick out as much as they are shown from Dr. Strange’s hands. That was an exaggeration.
11:30 This bit is so hilarious. Movie logic, in any medical situation, use paddles 🤣

As a Marvel fan, as soon as I saw the thumbnail for this video, I was like, "Dude, I can't wait to see your reaction to the Doctor Strange stuff", and you did not disappoint Doctor Mike. I like how they made the whole paddle thing work in context with the fantastical elements of the story, but still, it's such an overused trope in all sorts of fiction, and it needs to stop. If I ever see a big blockbuster movie, and they do proper CPR instead of jumping straight into shocking them, I will genuinely be impressed, and I'll be like "Can't wait for Doctor Mike to react to this one!"
Well they are not making a movie of House MD so i don't see why everyone is so hateful to comic book based fictional movies for this inaccuracies. The guy is a sorcerer who was also a doctor. He must have sensed in same way that he has cardiac tamponade. Also she doesn't have anyone with her at that moment and Strange just arrived a minute ago and separate his astral self infront of her. It's natural that she forgot to do chest comprassion. These movies are belong to comşc universe not to our universe so maybe we should just enjoy.
I just saw Dr Strange recently and was yelling so much about the medical records. I like how his biggest problem was how LONG it would take him to find them vs GIVING THEM to someone who isn’t the patient 🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨
yes
I think they would use the excuse that he is a doctor but yeah it’s still illegal because he’s not his doctor and hasn’t signed consent for his records to be shared with him.
YES!

I love Dr Mike’s reactions, there’s always soooo much geared towards the benefit of the patient, regardless of the fact we’re looking at movies here. We should all be so lucky to have a doc like that
Mike- "How does he know this thing?"
Cause he's Doctor Strange, Sorcerer Supreme, he knows everything, lol
Same thing I said😂
SOMEONE ACTUALLY SHOUTED OUT OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY? THANK YOU! -an OTA. Also, me and a PTA friend looked at the Dr. Strange scenes for fun to try and think of what fine motor activities we could progress through, but that is a legitimately terrifying set of injuries.
Well actually, during that Iron man scene, when Dr. Ho Yinsen was operating on Tony, you pointed out many mistakes (which are correct IRL), but you should also acknowledge the fact that the whole operation was done in a cave, in the mountains near an isolated and poor village. So, we can pretty much say that they didn't have enough medicines and anesthesia to do the operation properly. And since chloroform is much more easily available, they must have used it.
But still great and informative video👍🏻
i was hoping someone would point this out! As you say, I suspect the Ten Rings didn't think ahead to needing to do surgery on Stark and didn't get all the equipment they needed. Still incredibly terrible but at least primarily - if not entirely - *not* Yinsen's fault.
@@katherinekellmeyer5428 Yes you're right, it's not Yinsen's fault. As we know that The Ten Rings were given the job to KILL Tony Stark. But as they were paid less by Stane, they decided not to kill him for the time being and force him to make a weapon of mass destruction in a week's time. So I guess they told Yinsen to remove some of the shrapnels so that Tony will survive enough to make the Jericho. Anyways, thanks.😊
Yep he worked with what was available :)

Although I was questioing why the guard dude in the Middle East spoke Hungarian of all things.
Does your chest compressions T-shirt have instructions for how to do them and a label for where on the chest is the best spot to put the hands?
That’d be kinda cool.
For Doctor Strange, he did become a sorceror part way into the film, if it's a medical scene involving him after that point you just have to accept that a wizard did it and be on your way. (And all marvel movies have a heavy dose of comic book science, so there is that. Still would be better with those chest compressions)
"That’s not a good area to bleed from because that’s where the heart is" -Mike squeezing every drop out of that medical degree to make the student loans worth it.
😂😂
The end when I knew she was guna bring out the paddle thing I was laughing so hard before she even took them out then his reaction made me laugh so much harder.😂
Doctor Mike: “STOP CHARGING THEM, YOU DON’T SHOCK ASYSTOLI!!!”
Everyone Else: “Then why are we learning about AED’s in CPR classes?”
Basically, the paddles are used when the patient has an unstable heartbeat. Funnily enough, the purpose of the paddles is to "stabilize" an erratic heartbeat by inducing a flatline, which is then followed up by, you guessed it: chest compressions, chest compressions, chest compressions to restart the heart.
@@ArmageddonisUnleashe Always wondered about that. When my brother passed away (asphyxiated on vomit after a seizure) the paramedics had him hooked up to the automatic sort of paddles that would check if it needed to administer a shock. It kept saying no shock was required and I couldn't help but think "Why aren't you shocking won't that save him?!" They also had a pile driver type machine that was doing chest compressions. Unfortunately the vomit was too thick to get a breathing tube in and while they eventually stabilized him he was brain dead.
@@Destiny87 RIP.
the paddles are used to stop the heart, when the person has an irregular heartbeat. so that you can restart it with a regular heartbeat.
Dr. Mike: “If she takes out the paddles, I’m gonna scream.”
Me know this scene and where it’s going:
😏
lol apparently movies doesn’t care about the accuratecy of some scenes
I DIED LAUGHING when this man yelled out CHEST COMPRESSIONS, CHEST COMPRESSIONS, CHEST COMPRESSIONS!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣 11:44
Fun fact: I’m actually a lifeguard , and I had to some CPR when I was getting trained for lifeguarding. My wrists hurt while doing chest compressions 😆
Watching Dr Mike flip out is the funniest and most entertaining thing on UA-cam :D
4:25 having had one a while ago, I can say from direct experience, the worst bit isn’t the sensation being uncomfortable, it’s that the bottom end of the tube has been in the gastric acid and juices of the stomach…so it’s not just a weird feeling…IT BURNS…
Dr. Mike is adorable when he says his goals for the "perfect body" is captain america's. It's like Chris Evans saying that Chris Hemsworth's is his body goals.
Dr. Mike is my perfect man period. Which is why I'm always going to be a Spinster. I am setting impossible goals.
I will never get tired of hearing him say "chest compressions"!
Dr mike your channel is amazing and funny and love how you were like CHEST COMPRESSIONS CHEST COMPRESSIONS CHEST COMPRESSIONS 🤣😹
When she was tapping on his chest, she was imitating percussion. The principle is that if you use your second and third fingers of your dominant hand to tap the same two fingers of your non-dominant hand that are on the region of the patient that you wish to assess, the sound produced indicates different findings. If you hear a dull thud, there is most likely fluid build-up or a consolidation in that area; if you hear a tympanic sound, this region is filled with air.
We were taught at med school to use the middle phalanx of the middle finger of the non dominant hand as the pleximeter and the distal phalanx of the middle finger of the dominant hand as the plexor, which is used to strike the pleximeter. Looking at the clip, I'd say she got the striking method wrong, the movement of the strike is done at the wrist and not the elbow as shown.
@@varsinicp I would have to agree with you after watching it once more. We were taught the same exact method as you described 🙂
Dr mike knows percussion (all med schools teach it, but I’ve never seen docs use it on exams lol), but it looked like she was percussing the spleen and saying the heart was clear lol
I was taught that a glass of warm water and good rest usually works just as well.
I’ve never used it in practice either (although I do remember having to do it on one of my practicals 😂), however I do know respiratory therapists that use it quite often to assess diaphragmatic excursion
You missed the best line in that Captain America scene!
Steve: **trying not to freak out**
Dr. Erskine: **injects him with a needle**
Steve: **winces but finally relaxes**
Steve: "That wasn't so bad."
Dr. Erskine: "That was penicillin."
😂😭
I'm almost disappointed that bit was left out.
As an Occupational Therapist I love when doctors understand and appreciate the work we do for patients 🎉 💚
Thank you for your work.
Mr
for the tony surgery scene, I have anaesthesia awareness and it is pretty realistic, at least for me, to fade in an out of conciousnoess from the pain, and having ppl hold you down. I always felt bad for tony.
I would pass out if Doctor Mike reacted to *Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.* medical scenes. Jemma Simmons and her skills were always beyond me. :) That's the only show out of all shows and films that I find absolutely perfect in every way.
was looking for this comment! he should definitely react to agents of shield! :D
Agreed! I love that series so much!
I have a better plan ..S.H.I.E.L.D should hire Dr.mike for any medical scenes from next time😎😎😎😎
@@krishnanshumisra610 I don't understand but I agree. XD
Yes! I mean it would never happen but I would absolutely love it, if it did!
When I was 6 years old, I had surgery to remove my tonsils and I woke up during it. It was easily one of the most terrifying experiences of my life.
ok
Waking up during surgery is only scary when you can see the stuff being done. I once woke up during surgery but the surgery was on my forehead so i couldnt see it. I dont remember the exact details cuz i was pretty young, but i wasnt really scared.
Woah, i am, SO SORRY THAT HAPPEN TO YOU.
2:53 *mike fang irking over Chris Evans for 15 seconds straight.*
Me: straight?
Lol
as a nursing student, i lost it too when she tried to defibrillate Dr. Strange who was asystole 😂
We need a part 2 there are so many more medical scenes. A movie I would recommend with them is Captain America The Winter Soldier.
Yess we need part 2
And he could also do Agent Carter
He should totally watch scenes from Agents of SHIELD. I want to see what he has to say about both Coulson and Daisy being brought back to life with alien blood
@@quake621 Yes, that is something we def see.
I love that every time someone doesn’t do chest compressions first Mike just screams
I love this breakdown! 🙏 thank you for the lessons Dr. Mike. And also in Disney+ Hawkeye, the main character is losing his hearing from all those blasts. So marvel is getting medically accurate :) haha. Hope you can do more of these breakdowns! The ending when you lost it was spot on 🤣🤣
8:25 I had a couple of those in my left hand when I got it stuck in a grinder, basically turning a section of the middle finger portion of the bone (but in my hand, not the actual finger) to dust. They called them “external fixators” if memory serves. A pair of pins went into the intact portion of the bone closest to the wrist, and another pair near the first knuckle. The pins were then bridged together by the metal bar, which is actually adjustable, from what I recall. It’s basically a temporary exoskeleton, or exo-bone might be more accurate, to stabilize a limb or digit that’s been damaged beyond simple setting and casting, usually put in during the initial emergency operation. In my case the 2nd surgery involved a bone graft, after which the external fixator was gone.
Hey Dr. Mike, big fan here! As a Marvel super fan, this was hilarious to watch! I do have to say though, Strange is an excellent example of fiction and real medical applications in the comics! Keep up the great work and would love to see more Marvel!
