Watching these videos is really helping me cope with the present circumstances. Not only have you got a really pleasant demeanour, I'm learning medical knowledge too. Thanks Dr Gill :)
Just out of curiosity, you asked which hand was his dominant hand, how do the different arms differ/impact the blood pressure reading? Is it important to always take the pressure on both arms?
doesnt answer your question ,but im reading a book for class about the chicago blackhawks hockey team about their upcoming and how they went from worst to first. one manager of the teams name was arthur and he loved his office cold. so cold in fact, when he went to the doctor they had to take hid bp from both arms because they were different. his right arm which was closest to the air conditioning vent was lower than his left away from the air conditioner.
I am EXCEPTIONALLY cautious about anything like that - perhaps it is an NHS thing, we are scared of ANY approach to finance which might mean someone could suggest a bias. Very much keeping that in mind... watch this space. I'm working on a video to go up in the next two weeks
Wondering the same. My GP always uses an automatic one, which btw seems to take ages before the pressure comes off again and you kinda feel like your arm is being squeezed off 🥴
Assuming that the patient doesn’t have a cardiac arrhythmia, then yes they are as accurate. Some of the electronic ones are MUCH better than others. BUT it is vitally important the students are able to do these manually, as not infrequently the machine just won’t get a reading. Plus by doing manually you get more information about the patient, such as the rhythm of the pulse
So in the previous video you stated that normal blood pressure range is 90/60 to 120/80. The patient in this video was just slightly above 120 systolic on both measurements, this surprised me as a layman as the patient looked very fit and healthy, also young. You mentioned his blood pressure was fine "for his age". In the previous video on blood pressure you didn't go into how age affects blood pressure and what would be considered normal or healthy for different age ranges, I'm also wonder if gender is another factor that should be taken into account?
My blood pressure is 48/83. I have been suffering from headache constantly and lack of concentration.😫It has made my life so difficult. Any cures please?
I've always wondered, but have never asked. I do get that the diastolic blood pressure is measured by when it, well, pumps through the blood pressure cuff. What I don't get is how you determine the systolic number after that.
Other way around 😊 The systolic is when the heart beats, the diastolic is when it relaxes We did a post last week explaining exactly that 😊 ua-cam.com/video/rLEbOjWgmvE/v-deo.html Hope it helps
First of all the scrubs are lovely and secondly how are you coping with deaf or hard of hearing patients? I struggle to hear and this period has made everything just more unbearable than usual
I have struggled sticking with it, but I started trying to learn ASL since I’ve noticed more deaf people while working. I work in retail and I can only imagine how frustrating/defeating it must feel to not only be trying understand what someone is saying, but to get them to understand you. Technology helps but having that knowledge would make things easier for both parties.
Videos can only be as long as is needed for the examination. Currently I’m trying to upload every week, but only so much time 😊 Thanks for the encouragement 😊
I don’t often actively tell people they are wrong. However in this case you ARE! Dinosaur pockets are not cute... Dinosaur pockets are EPIC!! 🦕 🦖 (There was a memo, but I understand if you missed it 😜)
Great video! I've a quick question: if the pressure measured in both arms was significantly different (> 20 mmHg), which one should I consider to manage the patient? I've different resources saying different things, some say I should take the lowest and others the highest🤣
You told him that his blood pressure for his age is good. What would you say to someone who is 30 and has a constant blood pressure of 90 to 70 with a pulse of 58?
Hi Dr. Gill. I have a question about blood pressure. What is the relationship to blood pressure and pulse rate? I am an EMT and I had a patient with a pulse of 232 (obviously emergency) When another EMT went to take their blood pressure, they said 120/80. I couldn't get a BP because the pulse rate fluttered too much for me. I have no idea if it is really possible to get a BP with that pulse rate, and if it makes any sense they would have the most generic BP in a crisis. Does it make any sense to you?
Did u became an official doctor? Because I've been watching your videos like years ago and u also are a student 😂 (sorry for my English I don't speak it very well
I’m able to adjust the volume, so I can still examine a babies chest if they are screaming. Also there is a filter built in which reduces rustles Finally the screen will display the patients pulse which is really rather useful!
@@DrJamesGill that sounds like it's better in almost every regard. It must be significantly more expensive than a traditional stethoscope though correct?
Well it depends on the context. Probably best to say have a chat to your doctor initially. Literally could be nothing, or might need intervention. It would depend on the work up
@@DrJamesGill Velcro, it started to get really tight around my arm, tighter than any test before so i ripped it off. It was reading 200 at the time as well...
The machines can sometimes have a difficulty reading, but if it got that high, I’d try - at least once to persevere through the pain If you’ve can’t get a reading. Speak to your doctor
This always stresses me out, I always hope they aren't using their real names and dates of birth on videos that get watched by millions of sleepless people.
You know it! Someone caught covid, thus they lost their income. They tried to fill some of the gap by seeing scrubs when there was a shortage They were open to having dinosaurs on the pockets... and well, the rest is history! 🦖🦕
Another informative video! Thanks for sharing! 0:53 I’ve not seen this done before. I’m curious about what the width of the measurement means?
I’d the blood pressure cuff is too narrow - for example with a high BMI patient, then the blood pressure will be artificially increased
@@DrJamesGill thanks for the answer!
This is all very well, but, any double vision?
Nope
😂
You're a national treasure doc
International Treasure 😊
I don’t look anything like Nicholas Cage!
@@DrJamesGill 😂
@ Dr. Gill; thank goodness!
Dr. Gill: I'll need to listen to the pulse in your arm. Would that be okay?
Patient: No.
Dr. Gill: Excellent!
I like the intentional use of hand cleaning with the clear asmr sound. You are a legend!
Dr. Gill: I’m now going to blend effortlessly into this chair....
Patient: What?
Dr. Gill: Excellent
🤣🤣
Dr. Gill : Hello, my name is...
Me : 😴😴
Sounds like a Pavlovian response
Love him.💚
That kind of notification which gave the smile
Only short, but it was as much a test to see if the masks had too much of a negative effect
@@DrJamesGill so do the mask give a negative effect on your blood pressure
🤣🤣 unlikely. I was meaning to see if the masks impacted on the video, ie the audio and things like that
As with all of these videos, I come here for the ASMR and end up learning something. The blood pressure explanation was particularly good. Thanks!
Its good to see you back with other people. Thank you for the continuing content, its all superb!
Trying certainly
Great job Dr. Gill! So glad to see you back out there doing live demonstrations. Love you!!
More to come!
Watching these videos is really helping me cope with the present circumstances. Not only have you got a really pleasant demeanour, I'm learning medical knowledge too. Thanks Dr Gill :)
Medical knowledge, like, asking for consent?
I work in finance and these videos help me learn a lot about the medical field and relax at the same time 🤣
Well, every little helps I suppose !
Doc, just when I thought I couldn’t love you anymore you go and give a masterclass in sartorial excellence.
His videos are very relaxing and cosy
I found you and now I tell all my ASMR friends to watch your videos. We love you Dr. Gill💛💙💛
Wow, thank you
Dr. Gill, I've honestly learned more medical terms and procedures here (watching your videos) than in high school health class. Keep it up😄
My auntie taught me how to do this, she was a surgical nurse.
You’ll never forget that 😊
Dr. Gill o Brasil te ama. 🇧🇷💚
👍
You need a Purell endorsement
🤣 that would be nice, but I’m pretty sure that alcohol gel doesn’t need to advertise or endorse anymore. It pretty much sells it’s self
Don’t forget to like the video folks !
Please ans thank you from me too 😊
Seeing you both with the masks on ... How the times have changed this year
Biden winning 2020 is defo a year you want to forget jeez
@@aldorfc7287 no❤️
Masks don't protect against air born viruses
Doctor Gill calms me down.
I know you are profesional, but thanx for the unitentional asmr bro 👍
When Doctor Gill doesnt say well done to you after a test you know you messed up
So many physicians incorrectly take blood pressure. Sometimes the cuff is too tight, and other times you're not allowed to sit for the full 5 minutes.
The sitting still prior to the reading is honestly the hardest thing
Just out of curiosity, you asked which hand was his dominant hand, how do the different arms differ/impact the blood pressure reading? Is it important to always take the pressure on both arms?
That's a good one. May blood pressure be a little more shaking within the dominant hand? ( "Shaking" wtf I wish I was born american not french )
doesnt answer your question ,but im reading a book for class about the chicago blackhawks hockey team about their upcoming and how they went from worst to first. one manager of the teams name was arthur and he loved his office cold. so cold in fact, when he went to the doctor they had to take hid bp from both arms because they were different. his right arm which was closest to the air conditioning vent was lower than his left away from the air conditioner.
If he had a scrub line.. I would totally invest in it✊🏾 I mean which medical student wouldn’t!!?
I am EXCEPTIONALLY cautious about anything like that - perhaps it is an NHS thing, we are scared of ANY approach to finance which might mean someone could suggest a bias.
Very much keeping that in mind... watch this space. I'm working on a video to go up in the next two weeks
Cracked up at the hand fart. I need to grow up.
I absolutely love dr Gill’s voice 🥰🥰
Just curious, do you listen to ASMR for your own benefit as well?
Dat Purell shot
does it have to be at the level of the heart?
We need a long video 😢😢😢
Doctor, I love you, truly.
You should've taken your sweeeet time taking his pressure, wish there was a loop button on this video
right click on video and then there is repeat or something like that
Put it in a playlist on its own and you can loop it
He literally did. When I get my blood pressure done they don’t be like “okay I’m going to place to cuff on your artery” and so on.
You're a very nice person. Really!! Thank you for the content 😊
Dr.Gill's top has cute dinosaurs on it and I love it. COVID took many things from us, but at least it gave us this.
So excited
-So do you have any question?
- Well, n....
-THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR TIME
Nice Dr. G
👍
Dr Gill how do you rate automatic blood pressure monitors? are they as accurate as the method you use here?
Wondering the same. My GP always uses an automatic one, which btw seems to take ages before the pressure comes off again and you kinda feel like your arm is being squeezed off 🥴
Assuming that the patient doesn’t have a cardiac arrhythmia, then yes they are as accurate.

Love the videos. I did miss the "Do you have any problems with this arm?" before placing the cuff around the arm though. Lol
Big fan from Rome
Big fan of Italy 😊
My blood pressure is 48/83. I have been suffering from headache constantly and lack of concentration.😫It has made my life so difficult. Any cures please?
Any cures? Yeah go to the hospital.
@@dougspizman6751 They don’t care about low blood pressure.
It is a little low. 90/60 is the bottom end of normal. So 83/48 is something that needs to be taken into account, and looked at.
@@mountainhermit1519 with those symptoms u got they should......
What’s the reason for inflating the cuff and feeling for the pulse first rather than going straight in with the stethoscope?
The pulse disappears when you exceed the systolic pressure.
So it’s giving you a rough idea of where you’ll be listening to confirm
We explain more in the Understanding BP video

Just saying the dinosaur fabric pockets are really cute
I don’t often actively tell people they are wrong. However in this case you ARE! Dinosaur pockets are not cute...
Dinosaur pockets are EPIC!! 🦕 🦖
(There was a memo, but I understand if you missed it 😜)
Great video! I've a quick question: if the pressure measured in both arms was significantly different (> 20 mmHg), which one should I consider to manage the patient? I've different resources saying different things, some say I should take the lowest and others the highest🤣
If significant variation you need to record both and find out WHY
What's the reason for doing both arms?
You told him that his blood pressure for his age is good.
What would you say to someone who is 30 and has a constant blood pressure of 90 to 70 with a pulse of 58?
Hi Dr. Gill. I have a question about blood pressure. What is the relationship to blood pressure and pulse rate? I am an EMT and I had a patient with a pulse of 232 (obviously emergency) When another EMT went to take their blood pressure, they said 120/80. I couldn't get a BP because the pulse rate fluttered too much for me. I have no idea if it is really possible to get a BP with that pulse rate, and if it makes any sense they would have the most generic BP in a crisis. Does it make any sense to you?
I keep hoping he says pieceopaper, regardless of the circumstance
Loved when he said that tingles lol
Thank you doc .... i fans you
👍
Did u became an official doctor? Because I've been watching your videos like years ago and u also are a student 😂 (sorry for my English I don't speak it very well
I would get nervous and probably increase my pulse
Buzzin
That would be the air conditioning unit, but I think I managed to reduce it fairly well
I've always wondered why you use a digital stethoscope. Is it more accurate?
I’m able to adjust the volume, so I can still examine a babies chest if they are screaming.
Also there is a filter built in which reduces rustles
Finally the screen will display the patients pulse which is really rather useful!
@@DrJamesGill that sounds like it's better in almost every regard. It must be significantly more expensive than a traditional stethoscope though correct?
Apparently the highest recorded blood pressure was 370/360
Hand condition is not heart level...
Magically disappearing watch 0:51
What should we do if tension drop 90/60 etc..
Well it depends on the context. Probably best to say have a chat to your doctor initially.
Literally could be nothing, or might need intervention. It would depend on the work up
@@DrJamesGill can we give epi? O think epi can get tension normal
Mr.gill, im waiting your response 😢
If this is yourself, I’d suggest a review with your doctor
@@DrJamesGill no sir,it's general knowledge. thanks for helping
My bro bought one of these and i can't figure out how to use the bloody thing
A manual or an automatic one?
@@DrJamesGill manual i think, can't wrap it right
The manuals can be a touch tricky. Does it have Velcro or is is tuck in (I always found the latter hard to use)
@@DrJamesGill Velcro, it started to get really tight around my arm, tighter than any test before so i ripped it off. It was reading 200 at the time as well...
The machines can sometimes have a difficulty reading, but if it got that high, I’d try - at least once to persevere through the pain
If you’ve can’t get a reading. Speak to your doctor
Has anyone failed to say their name and date of birth?😁
I feel I'm about to any time I have to do it. To be fair it's the only time in given a spot quiz on my own birthday
This always stresses me out, I always hope they aren't using their real names and dates of birth on videos that get watched by millions of sleepless people.
