  • This week at the Temple Street children’s hospital, 3-month old Mark is in the intensive care unit after Mark birth the doctors found complications with his airway. Over in the resuscitation room, young Alex has high ketones which are making her very sick and over in the day ward, Rúairí is having an operation for glue ear.
    Temple Street follows the highs and lows of the hospitals daily routine and shares in the journey of some inspiring, insightful and unique cases. We meet the staff members who devote their lives to the children in their care, we see the struggle and joy of families who give up everything to see their child get better and we share in the happy and inspirational times, as we are confronted with the hope and courage of some very brave young patients.

    I have twins and one needed open heart surgery as an infant. It was one of the hardest things I have ever dealt with. 21 years later she is beyond healthy. Praying for sweet baby Mark.

    It's interesting to see medical shows from different countries, the differences in terms. When you're used to hearing "going to surgery", and "in the O.R." (operating room), and then on a program you hear it called "going to theater". I've enjoyed shows so far from England and Australia. This is the first one I've watched that I think is Ireland, didn't realize they can't pronounce the sound of "H", or maybe it's "TH".

    Never heard fluid behind the eardrums called glue ear. As a person who has diabetes that mother needs to be taught how to care for her daughter properly and how to handle the situation whenever she gets sick and isn’t eating or able to keep food or drinks down. Both parents and children have to be taught about the illness and what to do daily to monitor blood sugar levels. I test mine 4 or more times during a day and adjust my insulin as needed. They have long acting insulin that helps level out the ups and downs throughout a day and then you take fast acting insulin either before or after you eat. With children many take it after they eat because they might not eat enough which could cause a low blood sugar level. We have insulin pumps in the US that feed a small steady amount of insulin to the body throughout the day and when you eat you give yourself a bolus which is just a bit larger amount of insulin to cover the food you ate. It essentially acts like your pancreas would if it worked properly.

I don't think they would have just on the pancreas on its own. I can't speak about the failure rate but I am in a transplant group on Facebook to get information and there are thousands of members. I don't think I've heard of one transplant that's been rejected yet. I'm sure there are some but it's not common with the people I have spoken with.

      as a type 1 diabetic myself it sounded perfectly fine and to me it looks like the mother does understand perfectly what's going on... things like viruses, stress, hormones can all mess with sugarlevels and can indeed be a cause to have to figure everything out all over again (changing amounts of insuline needed, different amounts of carbohydrates and so on, it's a never ending discussion you have with your own body)...

      Anybody can get tubes if they need them. The ENT will remove the thickened fluid and place tubes to help the mid ear dry out. The generally fall out on their own. As long as the ears are not collecting fluid without it draining on its own, tubes are no longer needed. Some people require long-term or permanent tubes. It's a simple surgery and adults can generally tolerate it without general anesthesia.
      Go see an ENT if at all possible.

      I did not mean to make light of it or be flippant. Although I am sure that's how it came across. It was indeed not as serious as many of the conditions shown on this channel. It's amazing how hardened we become because of the horrific things we see on a daily basis.
      I apologize if I sounded callous, it was not my intention.

    There's a device that can be put on the arm to monitor the blood sugar without so many finger sticks. I can't remember what it's called, I'm not diabetic but I've seen in in some videos. It can connect to your smart phone and send an alarm when there is a drastic change in sugar levels. The Dale Tribe here on youtube has a kid with it.
