Medical Malpractice On Law & Order Ft. Legal Eagle

[@gibberishname]

Having the daughter code in front of the whole ER wasn’t a HIPAA violation Devin! This is from 1990 and HIPAA didn’t pass until 1996. It was a violation of medical ethics at BEST

True, but there _were_ patient privacy laws before HIPAA, it's just that they were often unclear or even contradictory.

The bare minimum of CPR and defibrillation just sent me to the moon with rage. Someone at my workplace dropped like a fly with a heart attack and we were so fortunate a couple nearby, both doctors, started chest compressions the moment they saw him go down. When EMTs arrived they took over for another 45 minutes. He survived and is now fully recovered. KEEP. GOING.

[@maryhales4595]

So glad the person from your work is okay!! I can't imagine how scary that was.

[@basedeltazero714]

On the other hand, it kind of has to be cut down for TV. 45 minutes is a whole episode. Same with the lack of depth on the chest compressions, you don't want to *actually* break their ribs. ... you probably shouldn't get your medical training from TV.

[@hvymtal8566]

Right? Doctors should know better. The training I got as a regular person is to keep doing it (cycling with people because it's exhausting) until someone more qualified is there to take over the situation.

[@jamessloven2204]

That will make for a really terrible episode of Law & Order

[@bdarci]

That first L&O episode was based on a real case (so many of the episodes were). It was the death of Libby Zion in the ER of a New York teaching hospital that prompted her father to investigate the competency of the physicians. He believed that understaffing and overwork contributed to mistakes which ultimately lead to his daughters death. The regulation in New York State which limits the hours which residents and interns work in hospitals to about 80 hours a week is known as the Libby Zion Law.

[@Ritapita73]

Fun fact: Law & Order began pre-HIPAA, so there are a lot of things that changed after privacy protection was enacted. Before that, someone could reveal your medical records (not ethically, but there weren't that many protections for patients), which is what happened during the AIDS scare of the 80s and 90s. As someone with a newly diagnosed genetic disorder, and also a former healthcare worker, it's been pretty amazing to see the changes in the last 30 to 40 years.

[@D64nz]

And here I thought that HIPAA went back to the dawn of medicine. I'm shocked to learn it's still a relatively new concept in the grand scheme of medicine.

[@Ritapita73]

When my brother was in med school, my dad caught a bad cold and jokingly listed his symptoms to see what my brother would diagnose. Having just finished a unit on serious infectious diseases, my brother diagnosed anthrax. To be clear, my dad didn’t have anthrax. Just a cold. But it’s now a family joke when someone catches a cold that we should also watch for anthrax.

[@milenakupiec1839]

I think this might also be because it’s really important to give the doctor as accurate information as possible so that the diagnosis can be correct.

Funny story: my ex room mate was a medical student, and one night I had extreme stomach pain. She told me it was appendicitis. I laughed, told her, "you med students are always thinking it's something serious. I just have food poisoning from Olive Garden. I'm FINE." 36 hours and one small operation later.... It was appendicitis. I heard hoofbeats and thought horses, but it was actually a zebra. I got lucky my other ex room mate succeeded in dragging me to the hospital when she did.

Appendicitis ain't a zebra. It's incredibly common. Your roommate probably realized the symptoms matched appendicitis more than they did food poisoning. Not to be rude but this is more a case of you dismissing something and insisting you're fine. I'd hazard a guess that your presentation was textbook appendicitis which is why your roommate knew what it was

[@charialer]

NO ONE on staff should be talking with an investigators WITHOUT hospital lawyers present! The cops should be coordinating through and/or redirected with upper management to schedule interviews the ANY personal that were administering care during the person's visit/death.

[@treyb387]

I agree. Rules may be different now versus then, but I felt that today the hospital would have lawyers present and maybe a board to review the death in question if foul play was suspected.

[@ashleydowney1222]

I didn't know that.

[@kimberlygorman584]

Excellent catch!! You must be a medical professional, no?

[@Harlem55]

Incorrect. The hospital staff may not obstruct or impede a law enforcement investigation (to do so is usually a felony crime). It would also be a crime to influence a witness statement to a police officer - such would be considered tampering or acceseory after the fact where it results in concealment of a crime from law enforcement.

[@SgtSupaman]

@@Harlem55 , it isn't obstruction to not talk to police without your lawyer. It's literally one of your rights.

[@sav6057]

From a pharmacy student: meperidine is CONTRAINDICATED with MAOIs, meaning this drug combo should never be used! It very much can be a lethal combo.

[@hvymtal8566]

From a Paramedic student: most opioid analgesics and benzos in various clinical protocols and guidelines I've seen list antidepressants as a whole as either hard contraindications or under "use with caution" (soft/relative contraindication depending on the situation). That includes MAO inhibitors. It's not some esoteric pharma lore. It's also not even _that_ much of a pain in the butt, as opiate alternatives like Ketamine, IV Acetaminophen, and stronger NSAIDs like Ketorolac have become commonplace in EMS.

[@Sniperboy5551]

@hvymtal8566 Please explain the pharmacology behind that logic because very few opioids and no benzos have serotonergic activity. Genuinely curious, it doesn’t make much sense.

[@Psilomuscimol]

No idea just guessing

[@flamingmonkeyxii]

@@Sniperboy5551 it's not the medication that affects serotonin, it's a metabolite of the medication. As the chemical is metabolized by the body, it turns into a different chemical that has a potential risk of serotonin syndrome. MAOIs also increase the presence of a variety of other substances in the body, too. Primarily neurotransmitters, I think. So the potentiality for interaction is very high.

This case is a play on the Libby Zion case that resulted in resident work hours rules. There wasn’t an alcohol intoxication issue, though. Serotonin syndrome is what killed her from getting meperidine while on an MAO-I

[@barbararowley6077]

On the one hand I understand it being changed to drunkenness, since overwork/sleep deprivation causes a similar level of impairment, but it does change it to a crime of individual choice - choosing to drink during working hours - rather than it being an enforced dangerous practice. If it happened later in the series I could definitely see Jack McCoy delivering a brilliant impassioned speech damning hospital administrators for endangering patients and causing moral injury to young doctors.

[@stevenclark1662]

Serotonin syndrome is awful even if it doesn't kill you. When I was an idiot teen, I took Ritalin and then drank some everclear. That was maybe '06? My friends still refer to it as "the everclear incident"

[@ghillies4life]

​@@AdderTudeDude, we get it. You don't like Legal Eagle because he disagrees with you on Kyle Rittenhouse and LawTube didn't. You don't have to keep commenting. If he read the case one way and they read it another, it didn't mean either is biased, it means they disagree. What a concept!

[@palinurus]

Thanks for bringing up Serotonin Syndrome, Dr. Mike! I've had mild/moderate cases of it before, and I wish it was more widely known about. I had to take a lot of my old medication, so if I missed a few days and took my full dose to get back onto it, it would completely flood my system. I thought the symptoms were unrelated until a therapy appointment of mine coincided with a day that I had a mild-moderate case of it. My therapist recognized the signs immediately and freaked out- for those unaware, severe cases of serotonin syndrome can cause seizures and even be fatal. There were multiple times that I should have gone to the hospital for my symptoms, but I hadn't known that there was anything wrong! So yeah, thank you for teaching your audience about Serotonin Syndrome!

Early law and order is my favorite, once Lenny leaves I leave. One thing to note is testing for certain medications back then you had to be very specific on what compounds you’re looking at so certain one will not show up on a regular panel. Hence the detectives asking for more panels

[@tieganmccusker3034]

I love that Dr. Mike consistently sh*ts on the presentation of chest compressions in tv shows, but tbh, do you think they could do ACTUAL chest compressions on an actor just for the sake of making it look realistic?? 😂😂 The problems that would cause 😭

[@madil2259]

Ooo i didn't think of that. Good point

[@Moon_x_sun]

Well if you arent really showing the person like there you could swap the actor for one of those cpr-dolls :)

[@tieganmccusker3034]

@@Moon_x_sun true, but if you've ever seen cpr dolls, the faces look really weird, so it's kinda hard to hide that it's not even remotely a real person 🤷‍♀️

[@Moon_x_sun]

@@tieganmccusker3034 oh yeah i know that why i Said when you cant really see the person who get cpr done on Them. Also the movie Industry has many tricks to make it look more real :)

[@LautaroQ2812]

Dr Mike, you always talk about chest compressions. I have yet to see (maybe it's older and I haven't seen it) a one stop video guide on CPR and what to do. You've talked at length about how to do chest compressions, about the one person taking leadership and directing others on what to do to act fast but organized, etc. But it's all small pieces here and there. I was thinking, let's say you're walking on the sidewalk and someone just falls. We can't simply start doing chest compressions. What do we need to check or look for? It would be great to have one 15-20 minute video with ALL the important things to know and first steps on CPR. I feel it would be easy to share for people and also digestible important information without necessarily having to go through a CPR course. Also, not less important, avoiding misinformation or bad sources. We would also be getting (hopefully) up to date information.

The collab we always knew we needed

[@lettztripp4023]

Legal Eagle and Dr. Mike... A+ Duo!

[@chrispeterson3362]

This is fantastic I'm a huge Law and Order fan since I was a kid. So much fine to watch a real Lawyer and Doctor discuss this.

[@ashtinpeaks9972]

7:45 we do this in manufacturing as well. If you write a tag down wrong you need to cross it out and intial it.

[@InDzienInTampa]

This is the crossover we all needed!

[@NelielSugiura]

Always nice to see two of my fav youtubers explaining the deep stuff!

[@foxypaw_tft]

Clinical coder and former health info clerk here in Melbourne (I read medical records/documentation for the purposes of reimbursement by health funds). Every professional involved with medical records, both paper and electronic, must remember that they are legal documents. White out is strictly problematic from a legal perspective, which is why it is proper medical documentation to cross out mistakes in writing.

[@Seraphim144]

Hell yeah, we got another mike & devin collab! Hopefully we get more of these in the future. Also, that knowledge about what defibrillators are used for was very helpful, since I never understood much why doctor mike would get so upset when people used them for hearts stopping.

[@slovak4life1991]

12:30 I absolutely love how happy Devin gets when he sees exactly what he described earlier in the video.

[@lillianward2810]

I’m glad Devin had the same reaction I did to seeing John Spencer. Leo was my favorite WW character.

[@NoriMori1992]

2:33 "Gimme a SpongeBob reference" from a licensed doctor is peak millennial/Gen Z energy 😂

[@ninjabearpress2574]

I've been an L&O fan since this episode, love the way Stone nails the doctor on the stand. Mum was an R.N. and loved that "letter to Dear Abby" line.

[@artstsym]

Love these collaborations, by the way, you two play great off each other!

[@brianacoustic]

This collab has to be one of my all-time favorites. Two absolute juggernauts of information and entertainment. More please!

[@abbiejo6822]

These two together are always great! I imagine the next movie Devin sees where they pull out a defibrillator for a flatline he’s gonna start yelling “chest compressions chest compressions chest compressions!” at the screen.

[@doeeyedfaun4020]

Mike you just shook my whole world, shocking STOPS the heart! 🤯

[@melbell0865]

Yay! Another collab with LegalEagle.

[@addie-eileenpaige6460]

I love these collabs with you & Legal Eagle.

[@seanmcnally4818]

More episodes featuring these two, you gotta listen, especially if you go to medical, and law school.

[@Marychelle]

Law & Order started in 1990. HIPPA started in ‘95

[@IkanisuShikari]

Love these two together! It's interesting as heck to see these shows from two different perspectives.

[@historylover8815]

You two should review the malpractice case in the Good Doctor (the episode is called the Good Lawyer). There’s also a legal drama, called All Rise, that has an episode about organ trafficking that I would love to see you guys tackle.

[@pieternel101]

Mike never let's us down, less than a minute in chest compression rant starts. Love it.

[@80009]

At 13:18 Dr. Mike should have said "Look, I am the lawyer now".

[@lina9535]

Even I got the The Abyss reference. I may be a 90s kid, but I love that movie. Mike you need to up your movie game

[@nicolevangellecom6405]

Law and order, the legal eagel and doctor mike. Best combo 🤩👌🏻

[@Soulsphere001]

This is a great collaboration. I really hope that law and medicine don't run into each other much, since that would usually mean patients being harmed or killed by doctors due to malpractice, but it's a very interesting topic.

"Chest compressions." I chuckled when that came up. That aside, I enjoy collaborations between Dr. Mike and other people. Thus, I'd like to see more collabs.

[@johnhenrygrzyb7970]

I appreciate these mash ups between lawyer and doctor. Have you guys ever thought about doing lawyer doctor and cop? or I think it would be cool. There’s a couple KZbin channels I saw that are felons who talk about life as an inmate. That be a really interesting mashup.
