[@Iptqwerty]

@@johannageisel5390 It's the last step of putting on a sterile gown. The strap has to go around your waist, but moving your gloved hands behind your back has risk of contamination. So instead you give the card to somebody else, turn around 360 degrees, and yank the strap and tie it around your waist. The person holding the card is supposed to grab the card firmly, so the strap can be yanked away. If they don't, the non-sterile card will be yanked along and contaminate everything.

Then after a few moments she started profusely apologizing for getting so excited

As an EEG tech, most odd behaviour/low GCS in patients is caused by something other than seizure activity. The diffuse encephalopathy is extremely common.

[@samanthawoods8000]

With all due respect Dr. Glaucomflecken, I'm going to need you to define "accomplished" in relation to the lore. Although Cardiology has more publications and golden trinkets, the training that Neurology and Neurosurgery had to endure is far more intense. Understanding the brain requires a mastery of knowledge that far exceeds the requirements for understanding the other, lower organs.
