    i had this happen to me (what happened to the first dude, sandy), the pain is unbearable as the air leaving your punctured lung is filling your body and pushing all of your organs into your ribcage. if it wasn't for the air ambulance and staff i'd be dead today and every year i raise money for the air ambulances who saved my life. god bless these absolute miracle workers!!

      it does, it's called pneumothorax. when there is a hole in the lung the air has nowhere to go but be trapped inside your body and it pushes your organs into your ribcage. just because they didn't explain that here doesn't mean it doesn't match the case. the knife in his case was under the armpit under the left arm, mine was under my armpit under my right arm

    We saw this done at the roadside in the middle of Sydney's CBD at 1am. It started with cpr and the patient was fitting. He had gone right under a bus and the Fireies had airbags under it within minutes. There must have been 50 people watching and lots had mobile phone torches on. They worked frantically for 20 minutes and the resus was brutal. Finally his vital signs stabilised. Both paramedics were in the back for the trip to hospital. A policement drove the ambulance. When the trolley went into the ambulance a great cheer went up and some people were weeping. It was one of the most dramatic interventions I have seen and I was in the military. These people are not paid enough. But thats changing fortunately.

      I remember when I worked in a NICU, as an RN,over 30 years ago. We all got used to responding to arrests, giving medications & CPR, & watching as the baby was “..was brought back to life.” I remember the first time a Baby didn’t “ respond” to our ministrations & died. I thought I had done everything “right”. I cried until one of the Docs just said, “ You didn’t do anything wrong. Our Patients die in spite of doing everything correctly.” I realized suddenly that Life & Death Wasn’t in our Control. That Realty brought me comfort.Knowing this brought faith & Love for God & my Savior, Jesus Christ.

      Disagree about US trauma. We are a well oiled machine and everyone has a role and our results speak for themselves. No we don’t stay and play at a scene, but scoop and run so we are triaging and treating. And a great deal of trauma patients are charity cases if they don’t have insurance. My hospital in Georgia, USA has the largest burn unit in the world and we treat patients from all over the world and our survival rate is unrivaled. This is all due to the physicians and nurses who scramble in a well choreographed dance of life saving care.

    • @CatMurray
      @CatMurray 3 роки тому +6

      @Therese Davis Physicians and nurses are not considering cost when a trauma comes in. We rip through the same supplies, meds, fluids, etc, as we have no idea what the patient can or cannot pay. My hospital writes off millions of dollars of care every year. How that happens in the corporate world probably has some great tax benefits, but as long as people are getting care, it is a win-win. Our system is far from perfect and my own out of pocket costs for insurance can be up to $12k for a family of 4. But as a nurse, I make $93-100k a year depending on the amount of time I work and with my health care spending account I can pay for some of my deductible with pre-tax dollars. I worked hard for my degree and so did my husband (aerospace engineer with 12 years in the Air Force as a pilot) and we know we are blessed and live in a blessed country. Merry Christmas.

    • @LissaSun
      @LissaSun 7 років тому +8

      Lupus is where the body's immune system mistakes normal parts of the body as foreign invaders and attacks them. Breaking down the body parts causes molecules to be released that are too large for the body to remove and so scar tissue forms over them which interferes with organs working correctly. An attack on a body part is called a flare and fever, sore joints, and extreme tiredness occur during a flare. Plaquenil limits the number of flares which are treated with steroids and chemo. Exposure to sunlight increases the number of flares. The skins, lungs, and kidneys are common targets of lupus but any Part of the body can be attacked. Because I didn't get insurance till expanded Medicaid it has done major damage to my lungs, and second stage kidney failure, and one knee no longer bends. Minor damage to c4 and 5 on my back, skin, and other knee. There is no cure and while hereditary plays a part as of now the cause is unknown.

      It's London been like it for decades now....they kill each other (gangs) because they live in different postcodes, innocent or not in certain areas if you aren't known you are considered an enemy and risk getting jumped...stabbed...or even shot. The drugs/money/clout/growing up knowing you could die just by walking out you're door has created an upbringing of fear that turns into desensitized.... just pure unsympathetic no emotionally feeling for others suffering.

    I absolutely love the way they treat their patients. Such kindness is important to recovery.
    I’ve had 4 traumatic brain injuries and the last one changed me. I can no longer work and struggle to live the life I had before. Short term memory is the worst. Almost burned my home down 3 times bevy I forgot I had something on the stove.
    I use to make weddings gowns, fill length costs etc. now I struggle just to make a basic piece of garment.
    I can totally understand where the man is that fell through the roof. I too struggled with severe migraines because of it. 13 yrs later I’ve released to do a lot but still struggle with a full recovery. I owe my recovery to my Drs and my faith in God.
    We can heal and be close to where we were before. Sadly some family members can’t understand… it’s an injury that can not be seen like a broken leg, some just can’t understand… I’m so thankful that it wasn’t words. The man was never caught… he not only changed me personally but he robbed me from my family… I can only be thankful things weren’t worse.

    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.

      Making sure the the lungs and heart can function correctly is always the very first thing you must do, before you even think about doing a CT. Your breathing and circulation are absolutely vital to living. If they stop working, you immediately go into cardiac arrest and die. The chest tube allows the patient to keep breathing effectively, which allows their heart to keep pumping oxygen around their body effectively.
