I truly appreciated how Dr. Woods exited her patient at the conclusion. Not always should the patient express gratitude to the doctor. I appreciate how grateful Dr. Woods was to her patient-not for getting sick, but for coming to her and allowing her to teach her while she tried to understand what had happened. It's amazing that the patient survived, was present when Dr. Woods spoke, and was able to thank her and share her experience. It's also excellent that they can use ultrasounds. Dr. Woods couldn't have just shown us how healthy the man was and how healthy his heart is without that ultrasound. It takes more than just possessing the requisite technical and medical knowledge to be a good doctor. It also entails having moral character, showing understanding and compassion for patients, and prioritizing the needs of those being treated. Develop effective communication skills is a key to become successful doctor. They must be able to interact with patients in a clear and effective manner. Effective communication helps to build trust and a solid doctor-patient relationship. Patients want to be heard and understood. Medical professionals should show compassion and empathy for their patients, who frequently face challenging and stressful circumstances. This entails being sensitive to their emotional needs and demonstrating genuine concern for their well-being. Doctors should keep up with the most recent advances in medicine and utilize this information to guide their clinical decisions. Patients are given the most suitable and efficient therapies thanks to evidence-based medicine. High ethical standards are expected of medical professionals, hence it is crucial that they uphold these standards in all facets of their work. This involves preserving patient privacy, respecting their autonomy, and steering clear of conflicts of interest. To give their patients the best care possible, doctors should collaborate with other healthcare specialists. This entails being receptive to advice from other experts and prepared to collaborate with others.

I would like to start this off by saying thank you to Dr Woods for sharing her knowledge and experience with us. It is not an easy task to break ultrasound down into simple understandable terms and she did a great job. Dr. Woods used her story of her trauma patient to illustrate that ultrasound is changing how she practices medicine. Her point is that ultrasound is fast, cheap, effective, and most importantly non-invasive. I think from a patient standpoint we need to start looking into more applications for ultrasound to treat the patient. There are so many cases where an MRI or CT scan are not necessary, and a simple ultrasound would have done just fine. From the patient’s perspective this is the ideal. The distribution of healthcare treatments is no easy task to undertake though. What I am proposing involves a major overhaul to the medical training system. Firstly, there is the research to find said applications which is going to take an unbelievable amount of grant money and time. Research will include at least a three phase clinical trial before being peer reviewed for scientific acceptance. Then comes having to retrain all current physicians on what is possible which will take time at trainings, workshops, conferences etc. Then we look at the medical student level where entire curriculums will have to stay up to date and adjust for the increasing workload of ultrasound training. It is amazing to me how complicated making change happen truly is. It is easy to say that we need more applications for ultrasound and it makes doctors better. It is just a massive undertaking that will take years and thousands of healthcare professionals to do. I think that it is great that Dr. Wood is finding the amazing applications of ultrasound; and I hope that she can continue to share her knowledge and experience like she already is. I would like to end this by saying thank you to Dr. Woods again. Thank you for reading.

I really liked how Dr. Woods brought her patient out at the end. It is not always the patient that should be thanking the doctor. I like how Dr. Woods was thankful of her patient not for getting ill but for coming to her and letting Dr. Woods learn while figuring out what happened to her. It is awesome that that patient lived and was able to thank Dr. Woods and be there while she lectured and told her story. Also, it is really good that they are able to use ultrasounds. Without that ultrasound, Dr. Woods couldn't have just shown us how healthy that man was and how healthy is heart is. It is amazing how technology like that can show us a healthy heart vs a heart that has many problems or something wrong with it. It is great that Dr. Woods was so determined to show that patients story and explain what she has learned from it. She didn't give up when she couldn't figure out what had happened but looked further into it to figure out what had happened to that pregnant woman.

Any doctor knows the spleen is on the left and the liver on the right in normal human physiology. I picked this up straight away on first listening...and I am a general practitioner or family medicine specialist. There is a lot of snobbery in the comments. The overall talk was very good. The doctor probably got stage nerves. Here is a message to the critics below - you do your first TED talk and upload it and let's all criticise you. You remind me of the people who criticised Captain Sully for landing his plane in the Hudson and saving all souls on board. As for dumping on E.R. doctors skills - when you or your loved ones' lives are hanging in the balance they may need an E.R. doctor. This silo thing is a sign of insecurity. I invite you to be kind and understand that no matter what specialty you are in, you are human and far from perfect...and crapping on others will not make you a better person or doctor.

There are a number of big errors in this talk. At around time ~13:50, Dr. Woods incorrectly states that she is scanning the volunteer patient's spleen and kidney. This is completely wrong! The spleen is located in the LEFT upper quadrant. Dr. Woods is clearly scanning James' RIGHT upper quadrant! If you look at the ultrasound image on the screen, it is clear that the image is not the spleen. It is, in fact, the liver! Also, she is completely wrong when she states that you cannot distinguish between pleural fluid and pneumonia on chest X-ray! Chest x-ray is, in fact, the preferable study to make this distinction. Perhaps she can't make this distinction because she is not trained in radiology. There is a reason that radiologists train for 5+ years after medical school to learn how to perform and interpret radiologic studies. The ultrasound machine is only as good as the operator. Dr. Woods should not be claiming any expertise in ultrasound or any other radiologic study. She should leave that to the radiologists, who are, in fact, the real experts. For the record, I am NOT a radiologist.
@amiehallwoods8 жыл бұрын
Hey web name, Thanks for watching the talk, and for your comments about CXR vs ultrasound for lung pathology. While pneumonia and a pleural effusion can have distinct appearances on a CXR, the presence of an effusion can absolutely obscure identification of an infiltrate. This is where ultrasound can be a pretty amazing tool. An effusion on ultrasound has a distinct, echo-free appearance (with the exception of echoes due to loculations), whereas an infiltrate may show vertical artifacts called 'B lines' which represent an interstitial syndrome when exceeding three per longitudinal scan area (B lines correlate with extravascular lung fluid.). Other benefits of ultrasound vs CXR are absence of radiation, lack of necessity to transport patients out the clinical area to radiology, and decreased cost to the patient. While CXR is often the most frequently performed and easiest acquired imaging study for some acute chest complaints, it's not always the least expensive, or best for the patient, and isn't defined as the gold standard. In fact in one study of 120 inpatients where a diagnosis of pneumonia was confirmed via CT or serial CXR to resolution in 81 patients, ultrasound showed a sensitivity of 99% (80/81 patients; 95% CI 93.3% to 99.9%) and a specificity of 95% (37/39 patients; 95% CI 82.7% to 99.4%). CXR fared much worse, with a sensitivity of 67% (54/81; 95% CI 56.4% to 76.9%) and a specificity of 85% (Emerg Med J. 2012;29(1):19-23.). You're correct, I'm not a radiologist, which we identified in my introduction. My colleagues in radiology have much different training and do amazing work, including ultrasound. Fortunately for patients however, EM docs like myself are using ultrasound more frequently to increase patient safety, improve diagnoses, and lower cost and radiation. And while I am fellowship-trained in emergency ultrasound, a fellowship isn't necessary for a clinical provider to acquire the appropriate skills to help his or her patients in the right setting. Yes, ultrasound is absolutely operator-dependent. It's why I picked this case to discuss...it's a great example of how accurate use of ultrasound saves lives. Re: mistakenly referring to the liver as the spleen, RJ Montenegro (comment above you) was correct in that nerves got the best of me. Performing a live scan while referring to alternating screens over both my shoulders got my rights and lefts mixed up. Maybe we’ll try to splice in the correct word, but I think the important points still come across. Good catch though. Ultimately, the goal of this talk was to pull back the curtain a bit for the non-clinical public regarding what we do in medicine. The hospital can be a complex and scary place for many people, and I was glad to have the opportunity to demystify the technology we use daily in the ED. This wasn't a clinical audience, nor intended to be an educational tool for providers. This also wasn’t a talk meant to focus on me or my qualifications. It was a chance to tell an amazing story of a patient who had a great outcome against all odds, and we were very lucky that she was willing to step on stage and be living proof of what ultrasound can do for patients. Thanks again for your comments. Sounds like you have an interest in ultrasound. Here's a great article in Chest from 2009 that you may find interesting: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3734893/. I'd also encourage anyone interested in point of care or emergency ultrasound to check out www.sonoguide.com, created by Beatrice Hoffmann and the folks at ACEP. This is a great tool for anyone interested in point of care ultrasound. It's accurate, doesn't require a login, and best of all, is free. Finally, my deepest gratitude to the patient who appeared in the video. You're an amazing lady and I wish you and your family the best. With love, Dr. Woods

We almost took a patient straight to theatre for a FAST ultrasound scan performed by Emergency Physician calling it a leaking Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm AAA. But because the patients clinical sign was inconsistent with a leaking AAA and history of chronic back pain, I insisted on a CT scan. The Emergency physician was furious, but I told them "Look, I am the one who is going to operate on the patient, not you, so he better get that scan" And the CT scan turns out that there was no Aneurysm, let alone rupture. Instead, the patient has diverticulitis which can be treated with antibiotics. Without clinical skills and intuition, we would have ended up opening a patient with a non operable pathology.
