  • 9-1-1 is a hit drama on FOX about first responders handling emergencies in Los Angeles. So many of you in the comments have requested I react to this, so with zero knowledge of what I'm about to get into, let's go! Boy, what a rollercoaster this series is. These are absolutely some of the most ridiculous scenarios I've ever seen in a medical show, and there is a LOT wrong here. Regardless, we still talk about newborn babies, shark attacks, a boa constrictor choking a woman, unplanned births during yoga class, car accidents, a UA-cam prank gone wrong, tanning booths, a nail incident, and, as always: chest compressions.

      I also hate to see most woman on tv giving birth in the worst position laying on their back 🙄
      I always cheer if the woman is allowed to walk around during labour and have any position where she doesn't have to push against Gravity.

    The bit about the baby that was "flushed". She wasn't flushed, the mother ran up to a level that's under construction and there was this large open pipe and she dropped the baby into it, I'm impressed nothing else insane happened.
    But the part where the guy on the ambo said "if this baby dies, it's on you", that wasn't to the mother, that was to the police officer who held the ambulance so the mum could board.

  • @QueenOfTheZombieApocalypse
    @QueenOfTheZombieApocalypse Місяць тому +21

    Weird as it sounds, I’ve known a number of very experienced EMTs who purposefully make dark humor jokes in the field with patients. It’s because the more relaxed the first responders appear to be, the more calm the patient is. If they are relaxed/joking a bit with the patient the assumption is “oh! They see things like this everyday I am going to be fine”. If the EMT seems stressed then the patient is more likely to panic.

    I love watching 9-1-1 while knowing full well that it's not all that realistic, however a couple things to keep in mind; because it's a TV show, they have limited time to make the situation make sense to the lowest common denominator viewer. Also, the 911 calls they respond to (usually in the cold opening) are often derived from actual events. So the writers have a bunch of info that is relevant to include, but they have only a few minutes in which to cram it all in. So you end up with first responders who are clairvoyant and have x-ray vision. XD

The only reason she was in trouble in the first place was handling a snake that size alone, because it didn't realize it was hurting her, it was just squeezing hard enough to anchor itself, which unfortunately for a human is strong enough to cut off your airflow.

I don't understand why people just hang up? It's not like you are "busy" once the professionals arrive, you just stand back and watch, so there is really no reason to not end the call normally.

    I think the reason that chest compressions in medical dramas always look so terrible is because the actors playing the EMTs are too afraid to risk hurting the other actors playing the patients. It’s understandable. Though, I think it would be possible to use some kind of prosthetic chest to make the chest compressions LOOK more real.

      well, surviving part is fine as we literally saw it happen in real life, but no side effects really sucks, real gage had really bad side effects, not exactly physical, but mental as he could control himself less and less - becoming overall more impulsive due to the decision making part of his brain having been ruined
      if its side effects are ignored that kinda sucks, cause it could make a really interesting story, maybe they could even bring a patient that was hurt by him due to his lack of self control

EMTs are like a step below parademics, so they can only administer CPR, glucose, and oxygen, whereas EMTs can do IV insertion (for IV lines, in ambulances an EMT will be the one getting a drip started after the patient has been secured so they're not rolling around like crazy), and I believe they can work more directly with pacemakers and can administer certain drugs. Which paramedics cannot do as they aren't properly trained/educated for it in emergency situations. This may be different in other areas though, I just remember this much from when I asked him about it! (I'm not in the medical field either so I'm clueless, I just do sociology lol)

      @@dylangreyluxe You flipped that around. There are three general levels of what the public calls "EMTs": Basics, Intermediates, and Paramedics. Paramedics are the highest level where we perform the most interventions. These include a wide variety of ALS medications. Depending on your medical director, we can also perform surgical airways, ultrasounds for trauma patients, needle decompressions, finger thoracostomies, pericardiocentesis, etc. "EMTs" is what the public calls all of us regardless of level. We, however, typically call Basics "EMTs" and we call Paramedics "Medics", but it can change from region to region. As far as education, you are correct there. EMT-Basics have about 6 months of intensive training whereas Paramedics receive 2-2.5 years of intensive training. You are then required to take a state test after completing schooling before you are able to practice, followed by recertification every 2-4 years (state depending) with around 150 hours of constant required continuing education. Additionally, there are numerous Paramedic specialties including Critical Care, Flight, and Tactical.
