Just last night I turned my phone around to my husband while I was watching a “Pop quiz!” on Instagram and asked him, “Why can’t Professor D be my teacher?” He said, “Well, she kind of is.” He’s right. She is.

[@beccaelain2706]

I LOVE watching your videos when I have free time and love how you explain the rationales! A day before a test, I “spoil” myself by watching your videos for the millionth time!! 😂 Are you able to possibly put an answer key in the description or highlight the answer after you answer it in the video? Sometimes the CC messes up - therefore I cannot see the answer unless I turn my volume on. Usually I can’t use my ear buds to listen - and physically seeing something shown is correct helps. 😊 Thank you so much for your time and dedication for these videos!!

Hello professor D as a perioperative nurse in the Operating Room I am a circulator. Are there any video you have about patient safety eg 1 . Transferred a patient to and from the OR table. 2 prepping the patient for surgery use sterile gloves. 3. Nurses monitoring patient greater than ASA 1 non health patients eg hypertension patients, diabetes patients etc. what are New York guidelines? 4. Counting before patient come into the Operating Room decreases anxiety of the patient. Please help.

@@cheungfara2899 hematoma formation would happen only if the the blood pooled allowing clot formation. This question as very specific and how to decrease incisional pain when coughing. To decrease pain in the incision during a cough, the #1 thing to do is to splint the area. Does this make sense?

Professor D, your videos are too short and making it difficult to grab concepts in a chronological manner. Why don't you take one system and complete before moving to the next?

[@NexusNursing]

My videos are organized by playlists which are organized not body systems. Watch my videos by playlist instead of release dates and it should be easier for you.
