Doctor Reacts To Nickelodeon Medical Scenes

  • I was a BIG Nickelodeon kid in the 90s. I loved the cartoons like Doug, Rugrats, Hey Arnold!, so today I say down to look back through my favorite childhood shows to see what kind of medical information there was, and check in to see if things were accurate. What about when Otto broke his leg in Rocket Power? Or when Rocko had appendicitis during Rocko’s Modern Life? I even took a look at more modern shows like The Loud House and Avatar The Last Airbender to see what Nicktoons are up to these days. I couldn’t believe the stuff Jimmy Neutron got up to inside Carl’s head or poor Cosmo’s broken Fagilgli Gland in The Fairly Oddparents. What shows or scenes did I miss? Let me know down below!

    The thing on Patrick’s head is a concave mirror with a hole in the middle. The doctor lowers it over his eye and looks through the hole and the concave shape of the mirror focuses light at the spot he’s looking at. Nowadays you have flashlights lol

  • @OR-hl5lc
    @OR-hl5lc 11 месяцев назад +566

    The reflective disk you're referring to is called a head mirror. It is a medical instrument that was commonly used by doctors in the past, especially during the early to mid-20th century. The head mirror consists of a concave mirror, typically attached to a headband, which can be positioned in front of the doctor's eye.
    The purpose of the head mirror is to direct a source of light, such as a lamp, onto the patient's body. The mirror reflects the light onto the area of interest, illuminating it for examination. The doctor can adjust the angle of the mirror to focus the light precisely where it's needed, providing better visibility during examinations or procedures.
    The head mirror is not commonly used in modern medical practice today. Advances in technology, such as handheld lights and headlamps with built-in lights, have made it more convenient and efficient for doctors to illuminate their workspace. However, the image of doctors wearing head mirrors has persisted in popular culture, including cartoons, as a recognizable symbol of the medical profession.

    I’m a medical assistant who has worked in ENT with an otorhinolaryngologist in his 70s who used that head mirror. It’s used along with a lamp attached to the exam chair that reflects light into a small spot to examine the ears, nose, and throat. He was so old school and just overall a funny guy, I miss him already and our ENT clinic just closed today 😭 He once said “ENT is like sex, if you’re not having fun, you’re not doing it right” 🤣

    As an Indian medical student, I'd like to tell you, sir, that mirror thingy is called "head mirror". It's used along with the Bull's eye lamp in routine external auditory canal inspection in the ENT OPs here. But nowadays most of the ENT doctors are slowly starting to use otoscopes instead of the tedious ear pulling and adjusting required to visualise the canal as well as the tympanic membrane using head mirrors.

      @@mygoditsfullofstars8599 A head mirror is mostly used for examination of the ear, nose & throat. It comprises a circular concave mirror, with a small hole in the middle, and is attached to a head band. The mirror is worn over the physician's eye of choice, with the concave mirror surface facing outwards and the hole directly over the physician's eye, providing illumination like a ring light.
      In use, the patient sits and faces the physician. A bright lamp is positioned adjacent to the patient's head, pointing toward the physician's face and hence towards the head mirror. The light from the lamp reflects off the mirror, along the line of sight of the user, with the light being somewhat concentrated by the curvature of the mirror. When used properly, the head mirror thus provides excellent shadow-free illumination.
      TLDR: it reflects light and the doctor looks through the hole

    The head thing is a head mirror and was used to look through when examining a patient's ears, nose and throat in the days before other means of lighting the interior of orifices were developed. The concave mirror allows light to be focused into a small, bright spot which was perfect for seeing into ears and nostrils and such (while looking through the hole in the middle)

    The circular silver thing that doctors used to wear over 20 years ago was called a head mirror. Head mirrors are diagnostic devices that reflect light into a patient's eyes, nose, mouth, and ears to help with exams. They can also be used during surgery to see inside a patient.
    To use a head mirror, a doctor swings it down over one eye and peers through the center hole. A lamp is positioned behind the patient, and the mirror reflects and focuses that light on the doctor's eye. Head mirrors are mostly used for examining the ear, nose, and throat.
    Basically we didn't have super high efficiency LED lights back in the day.

    "head mirror." It was used in examinations of the ear, throat, and other, ah, body cavities. To use, you swung the head mirror down so that you could look through the hole in the middle with one eye. Then you positioned a light source so that it shone on the mirror’s parabolic surface. By moving your head just so, you could reflect the light rays down the patient’s throat or whatever, the better to illuminate items of interest without obstructing the view.

    A head mirror is mostly used for examination of the ear, nose & throat. It comprises a circular concave mirror, with a small hole in the middle, and is attached to a head band. The mirror is worn over the physician's eye of choice, with the concave mirror surface facing outwards and the hole directly over the physician's eye, providing illumination like a ring light.
    In use, the patient sits and faces the physician. A bright lamp is positioned adjacent to the patient's head, pointing toward the physician's face and hence towards the head mirror. The light from the lamp reflects off the mirror, along the line of sight of the user, with the light being somewhat concentrated by the curvature of the mirror. When used properly, the head mirror thus provides excellent shadow-free illumination.

    The disc is known as a head mirror, and it helps otolaryngologists (ENTs, or ear, nose, and throat doctors) visualize various body cavities of interest. To use the device, the medical professional swings the mirror down over one eye, peering through the center hole (edit: so all cartoon doctors are otolaryngologists)

    "Doctor thing on their head" is a head mirror used by ear, nose, and throat doctors. Supposedly they would place a lamp behind the patient and if used properly they'd provide shadow-free illumination to whatever area they are looking at.

    The head mirror was used for examination of orifices in a time we didn't have or didn't have access to modern instruments with light integrated in them. So the doctor would put a lamp next the patient, he would look in the hole of the mirror and the light reflection would go directly in the orifice (mouth, nose or ear) without causing a shadow.
