Master Percussion Technique For Respiratory Clinical Examination - Clinical SKills - Dr Gill

[@oliviahappel9637]

I don’t study medicine, nor do I ever plan to. However, I always watch your videos - not only for the asmr, but for the satisfaction I receive in seeing you explain your craft in a passionate, detailed way. Best as always, Dr. Gill!!

[@DrJamesGill]

Well thank you for joining us 😊

[@bayakuganz]

Same for me. Never done anything medicine related as I'm an industrial electricien. Strangely enough medical exams always kind of scared me. But watching Dr Gill explaining exams in details has put my mind more at ease. Keep up the good work doc!

[@Xanderviceory]

Came here for learning the skills, stayed because of your lovely voice and dashing attire

[@thelearicist]

Same. I have a feeling this is true for a lot of us.

As long as people are finding something useful here. Whether it’s the content, or the community, it’s all good 😊

Side effect of enjoying this channel for ASMR is the education you get along the way!

I watch these just for ASMR, and the percussion is my favourite thing to watch and listen to. ❤

[@DrJamesGill]

Well hopefully you’ve a better idea behind the what and the why’s of respiratory percussion now 😊

[@balaam_7087]

I was literally about to post the exact same comment as this one, so instead I’ll just upvote it 😸

[@NickzAndMikz]

We learned percussion in our respiratory exam and it's quite tough - excited to sit down and watch this. Thank you Dr. Gill for your work getting us these videos

[@DrJamesGill]

I hope it helps 😊 When did you do the session?

[@NickzAndMikz]

@@DrJamesGill Our "OSCE" (we call them "standardized patients") was about two weeks ago. Which was only one week after we learned percussion as a concept. I didn't have enough practice for the patient, but this really helped me understand the technique better than what was explained to us

[@DrJamesGill]

Ah yes. I understand. Hopefully the result will be good though. Please drop us a comment when you know a😊

[@tanksoldier]

Your stuff is the best. I have a background in emergency medicine, as an EMT/firefighter and police officer, and your explanations are better than most of the instructors I’ve had over the years.

[@DrJamesGill]

That’s very kind of you to say. But I’m sure that they will be excellent in their own areas, just clinical skills is where I’ve spent a lot of time now

[@RoRo-mj1dg]

Thank you for your videos Dr Gill; specifically the deep dives of the systems/assessments. I’m a nurse currently doing my clinical assessment module and found your teaching approach easier to follow and retain. Helped me get that A1 in my OSCE 😊 very grateful for your videos.

[@DrJamesGill]

That’s excellent. You must be so pleased! Thank you for the feedback. What other areas would it help you for us to cover?

[@RoRo-mj1dg]

@@DrJamesGill thank you 😊 yes ecstatic! Have another one on Tuesday so will be rewatching the exams to revise. I know this differs from some of the other videos but it was would be great to see how you would carry out medical interview and your approach to doing it concisely. Optimising consultation time while being patient centred as you demonstrated in the male/female pelvic exams.

[@DrJamesGill]

That’s communication skills. We could look at that certainly 😊

[@zahras1492]

I don't remember any doctor using this technique while examining my daughter for pneumonia. I find this technique very efficient.

[@DrJamesGill]

Ideally it should be included, but it is additive For pneumonia you’ll be getting the vast about of information from the stethoscope. Percussion would perhaps be a stronger clinical sign for something like a collapse / pneumothorax

[@scarred10]

For pneumonia,they will be listening for localised crackles with a stethescope.

Many thanks for this video Dr Gill, I found it very helpful for understanding different percussion notes and the clinical reasoning behind them. The cases were super helpful to consolidate the video content and I’d love to see more in future videos!

[@DrJamesGill]

Thank you. That’s useful to know. I think I’ll start putting more clinical examples in the videos 😊

Dr James you have earned a new fan today :) I was looking for a video for Spinal examination and I found you and now I am here opening your videos to master every examination I am scared of lol Thank you for starting this Channel! I will give more comments after watching more videos. I am so impressed with you that I thought to do an Observer ship with you if it's possible. I know you are a GP. Can I ? I wish I had a teacher like you in my med school :(

[@tavitafish]

My younger brother plans on going into medicine so I'm going to send this to him so he can learn real good

[@marinitsag]

Finally, we get the technique explained!! Thank you Dr. Gill 😀 I always wondered about their difference, what are the healthy sounds and when the bad ones happen.

[@DrJamesGill]

Hope it helps.

[@redneck2994]

Ok. Maybe we should carry on with the percussion bit, and detail percussion of the abdomen ?

[@littlelaur94]

I like that we got some cheeky cameos in at the start from some of our favourite characters from the Dr Gill Cinematic Universe...

[@thebassmaster1364]

4:13 A pneumothorax is air in the lungs plural space , not filled with fluid, that would be a hemothorax. The pneumo is hard to differentiate from a normal lung with this test, the main reason its preformed is to detect wether its blood that needs a chest tube or air that can be deflated with a needle. Im a combat medic, just wanted to clear up as i think that could confuse students, otherwise great video.

[@DrJamesGill]

Yes I misspoke there. Thank you for clearing that up. It’s been a while since I’d dealt with a pneumothorax clinically, but a large / tension would still have a positive test head wouldn’t it?

[@richc8413]

Hi James, I’m an avid fan of your content and enjoy everything you produce. Is it possible for you to do a full head to toe examination in one long video. I watch lots of others like this but would love to see you do one. Thanks

[@krybogs]

У меня сейчас 4 часа утра, мне завтра рано вставать, а я смотрю это видео, все идет по плану.

[@diosteama2719]

Thank you very much for this ❤

[@andreafranne]

Thank you for this video! Some of my teachers tap on the area between the MCP and PIP joint instead - is that an equally good technique? I find it easier to get a clear sound that way.

[@DrJamesGill]

You get a better sound from striking the DIP as the joint can flex down increasing contact

[@littlelaur94]

Serious question, when you are percussing a female patient's chest, does their breast size have any bearing on how the technique works? As in, would larger breasts affect the sound in any way? And is there a particular way to deal with having to work around a patient's breasts to examine their chest? I know in your breast examination video you were very clear about explaining sensitivities including language around examining the breast area.

[@DrJamesGill]

With the chest, the larger majority of the detail is going to come from examining the back. You’ll still percuss the tops of the lungs, and the sides from the front, whilst simply not examining the area directly covered by the breasts If there is a need to move the breast to percuss under, I’d ask the patient to move them for me

[@drama3034]

Omg, i just thought yesterday when watching abdomen examination how to do percussion like professional now you posted this😭. Thank you eventhought i will not used it that much😂

[@robertclarke5750]

Good evening Dr Gill, you stated that this is a significant skill, but in my 41 years I have not witnessed it or had it done to me, is this an outdated practice?

[@DrJamesGill]

Not at all. It’s a core part of respiratory - inspection, palpation, PERCUSSION, auscultation It easily takes up a quarter of the practical session when we teach respiratory In reality it’s more often used as a secondary test if someone can’t get the diagnosis, but that shouldn’t be the case

[@robertclarke5750]

[@forgettablelisa]

Every doctor I go to now just uses a stethoscope and tells me to take deep breaths. When I was younger doctors used to actually do this if/when I had any kind of chest or breathing issue.

[@DrJamesGill]

In an ideal world I should be done. But I will hold my hands up to say that I will skip vocal resonance occasionally if everything else is fine
