You can be standing one second, and the next thing you know, your waking up on the floor. I have neurocardiogenic syncope and a hole in my heart.. I just shattered my ankle about 4 months ago because of it.. I black out a lot... It can happen. It took a lot of years to figure out why I passed out
I would not want someone crying or who couldn’t control themselves with me if I was the patient. I realize it’s awful for the family/friends but it doesn’t help the patient at all.
@@SJC49 When I scratched my cornea in a work incident I went to the GP - but only because I could get a same day appointment. They put in anaesthetic drops, dye and visualised the scratches. Then prescribed drops for the next few days. Best part was, universal healthcare meant it was free 😁 🇦🇺 These days the wait for a GP appointment is weeks where I live (regional) so if I had the same injury I'd probably go to the hospital 🤷
"You have episode of chest 'discomfort". Gosh that word in the medical field needs to be banned. It's not just discomfort. That word is used way too much. I heard it being used on a young guy as they were pulling his dislocated shoulder back into place. Discomfort... I think not. But otherwise love these episodes!! The skills of the medical people are really incredible, and so is their empathy.
Anyone think there was something weird going on with the cyclist Neil? He looked like he was beaten not just fell off his bike or hit by a car. Said he didn't remember but no head injury. I think he was hiding something....
No, Michael had a suspected heart attack. He was tachycardic but definitely did not die!! A cardiac arrest and heart attack are 2 separate events. Someone in cardiac arrest has no output, they are essentially deceased. Most out of Hospital cardiac arrest patients do not make it unless there is a defibrillator with shocks given and effective CPR given as soon as the patient goes into cardiac arrest.
I’ve watched multiple episodes and I’m just wondering, do they ever use an MRI machine for things? Or do they stick to just ct scans? There is stuff the ct won’t pick up. So I’m very curious
I went to the ER because I had a headache for days that wouldn't go away, they did a spinal and CT scan , they said they found nothing wrong and sent me home, 3 days later I still had the headache and went to my family doctor who didn't believe there was nothing wrong and he ordered an MRI, the results showed I had multiple lesions on both sides of my brain and I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. So I really question when doctors just go off of CT scans
In emergency MRI is probably never used. I think given what they'd be testing, it wouldn't be useful and also you don't have their medical history right there to confirm they don't have any metal objects in them
@@johnschroeder3072 Correct, but if they can ask or get the info “are you allergic to contrast dye or shellfish” then I think getting the answer for metal in their body is just as easy. Also I’m asking this question after watching as many episodes as I have been able to find here on RUclips and I’ve had that thought on many occasions just thought I would ask it on this one. I’ve been a nurse for over 20 years and I know there are times MRI is used over Ct. Watching these shows I definitely notice some differences. It’s interesting to see them. I’m not judging I’m questioning. If we stop questioning things we stop learning. There are countries that do things different in many ways and I think it would be beneficial for others to incorporate them. It’s the way things can be done better and safer.
@@lojean4 Agree. Maybe it’s a different practice from the US to the UK. When I’ve gone in for a severe migraine they send me straight to MRI of course it’s because of a note put in my chart. I hate going into an mri machine, so not my favorite but necessary option. Anyway, similar type scenario as yours the secretary at my child’s school her son had a low grade fever and headache. Headache got worse. She went to the children’s hospital. Ct scan showed nothing, spinal tap showed nothing. There were 30 drs and they were going to send him home but 2 spoke up and said no. They sent him to MRI and found out he had meningitis. If they had sent him home, we don’t know what could have happened. Their neighbors had a similar situation. No mri done and their child is now paralyzed. I hope you are holding up well enough with your diagnosis. Sorry I don’t know the right words. That’s a tough one and affects everyone differently.
I like the program ; could do without the stories of how they met and married . I really couldn't care less , has nothing too do with the problem they are having .
Bicycles should NEVER be allowed on the street. Isn't that the first thing your grandma and mom tell you "don't ride in the street"? Stay on the sidewalk.
But you're not allowed to criticize because an astounding number of people don't know the difference between racism and a reasonable objection to certain cultural practices. Nobody is born believing anything.
Yes. Firstly, it's an A&E aka Accidents and Emergencies, so they have two areas depending on how serious the problem is. A mere broken finger or an eye injury gets treated in the accident department. Secondly, if you have had an accident or a certain kind of illness that needs treatment quickly but you can't go to a GP, whether it's because of the time of day, day of the week or because the practice is full - that's what the A&E is for. (But not for a mere case of the snuffles, for example) When I broke my finger (it was bend at almost 90° to the side over the neighboring finger) and waited for the xray, I was still chatting along with my mum, even laughing. Same thing with my elderly neighbor I accompanied. We were chatting and joking, and she actually had to be admitted for emergency abdominal surgery. And I reckon you mean the couple, the guy with the eye injury? Yes, something like that is definitely a case for a&e since it is very time sensitive. If it gets not cleaned and treated properly right away the eye can get infected and that can result in loss of eyesight.
The British make the best shows, give you the back story instead of all the drama.
It's a medical show. I'd rather see the medical procedures.
Michael’s baby is so beautiful!🇨🇦
I agree. I also love his wife's outfit in the interview. It's gorgeous!
So gorgeous, that little one. Wonderful family.
I love to watch this program so much...so touching. And mostly makes me cry in happiness everytime patient overcome the 24 hrs period of recovery❤
I like watching these videos cause you can learn a lot from the videos I’m watching from Bristol Tennessee
Me too..😊
Ditto! ❤
Gosh the silent tear is so sad to see
I woke up in icu after triple bypass surgery…my daughter was leaning over me in silent tears
Big Country is a great band. Enjoyed their music in my younger years.
“Chasing cobras by our back garden!”…….Yikes!!
Michael in Malaysia
George and Syanne ❤❤❤
Cute
They’re so cute!
They are #CoupleGoals to the extreme
Syanne is so gorgeous!!!
Banjay Bluelight - great channel!🇨🇦

Thank you. ❤
George and Syrian, seem like a couple of crazy ones! I’d like to hang out with them.
Syanne
@@mickieswendsen1302 thank you I knew I spelled wrong
Waiting patiently for the "traumatic cardiac arrest" that never showed up in this episode. Someone titled the wrong show?
Clickbait, trying to get more views...for a video they don't own
Michael? On hole 13?
The middle age man who was hit riding his bicycle had bleeding inside his chest which could result in cardiac arrest.
The Maylasian man who had been playing golf??!!
And another man came in with a cardiac arrest
Another wonderful episode.
This just shows that cycling and running are definitely very bad for you.
Yep . My cousin died from a heartattack while on a rowing machine...He was super fit and younger than fat old me.
Ty very much
Loved this one❤️
Michael and his wife are so cute together 😭😭😭😭
That is a big ole Hickey on his neck. LOL
And I think that branch also gave George a hickey.
Youve been a brave boy eyepatch 😅
I would not want someone crying or who couldn’t control themselves with me if I was the patient. I realize it’s awful for the family/friends but it doesn’t help the patient at all.
I've been to hospitals a couple of times with a heart attack and then a fall .. My son was a cot case , no help at all .😂
Neil’s wife is hilarious and super cool.
. . . doesn't ANYBODY in this country simply go to the doctor anymore ?!?
For these types of issues? Even the guy with the eye injury - scratched corneas are no joke and Gp’s don’t treat.
I was wondering the same thing. I was thinking they might have to wait too long for an appointment?
If you can get a doctor.

No traumatic cardiac arrest .

Does that first dr have a cat perhaps? 🤔
The scratch on his collarbone area?
And I think patient George has a hickey on his neck! LOL!
@@QEDOma yep!!! 🤣
My dog scratches too...little buggar😂

There is stuff the ct won’t pick up. So I’m very curious
They do but CT Scan is faster than a MRI. Once the patient is stable, they will do a MRI if one is needed.
I went to the ER because I had a headache for days that wouldn't go away, they did a spinal and CT scan , they said they found nothing wrong and sent me home, 3 days later I still had the headache and went to my family doctor who didn't believe there was nothing wrong and he ordered an MRI, the results showed I had multiple lesions on both sides of my brain and I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis.

How Did The Cardiac Arrest Patient Did After Coming To Hospital Scott Erman USA 🇺🇸
The title was a lie. There was no cardiac arrest in this episode.
@@BrianDavis13 did you not see the golfer?
@@thisiscait That wasn't a cardiac arrest. A cardiac arrest is a full stoppage of the heart. The golfer's heart was beating too fast.
where is the cardiac arrest?
such a misleading title.
Wonder why Michael wasn’t given O2. That’s very important !
I like the program ; could do without the stories of how they met and married . I really couldn't care less , has nothing too do with the problem they are having .
What a boring ER.
Bicycles should NEVER be allowed on the street. Isn't that the first thing your grandma and mom tell you "don't ride in the street"? Stay on the sidewalk.
Not allowed to ride on the sidewalk.
When you're five, yes.
@@GeeEee75 yeah and also when you're grown
Ag, muslims and their religion of peace,tolerance and love. Lol😊
But you're not allowed to criticize because an astounding number of people don't know the difference between racism and a reasonable objection to certain cultural practices. Nobody is born believing anything.
😂😂😂, thats a joke
@@vananthia exactly,all religions are a joke,dangerous joke
If you can sit and eat and laugh and carry on, do you really need to be i an emergency room?
Yes. Firstly, it's an A&E aka Accidents and Emergencies, so they have two areas depending on how serious the problem is. A mere broken finger or an eye injury gets treated in the accident department.

Do they really need the incessant talking. Almost nothing interesting in this episode.
After reading a few comments i didnt watch the video. Bye bye
You saved yourself. There was almost nothing medical in it.
Ya i think so too
