[@rosanamorales3746]

Wow! Great patient.He deserves an Oscar.

[@cyp2d653]

Really brilliant channel, useful for all roles in healthcare, not just medics! Using this for my final year of pharmacy school

[@quesmedqbank]

Great to hear that!

[@debigdogk9563]

Excellent job guys. Simply the best ❤❤❤

[@quesmedqbank]

Thanks!

[@mikekaraoke]

I had my mouth on the floor when he said he was 40! looks way older 😲😲

[@Anelej96]

its an actor...I had a 30 year old actor on my osce exam that played the role of a 80 year old...

[@manofsteal2792]

great demonstration with history taking and rolling out differentials

[@شهد-ك4ت2ن]

6:23 Thank you sir for making this video, i just have one question you said “after a negative CT scan we should do a lumbar puncture to assess subarachnoid hemorrhage” , but doesn’t the negative CT scan rule out this, thank you again

[@travel.with.frances]

No, it doesn’t rule it out. That’s why there’s a need for LP to assess for Xanthochromia.

[@DrJeartM]

Bleeding can be minor and invisible in CT scan , that's why we wait for 12 hours to do LP to check for Xanthochromia -yellow discoloration of CSF ( caused by breakdown of hemoglobin)

[@summerblue5258]

No you follow through with LP to check for xanthochromia

Thanks❤

[@quesmedqbank]

Thanks for the comment!

[@RihaJamil]

absolutely wonderful video as always, thank you very much for your hard work. i just would like to clarify, is there any particular reason meningitis is ruled out as a differential? since the patient mentioned that he did have some sort of sensation in tue neck area thank you!

[@meem7309]

Probably because the patient denied having photophobia, nausea, vomiting, fever, change in vision or hearing

[@cesarcaceres3770]

Also denies neck stiffness. But on your PE you could do Brudzinsky or Kernig to support this.

[@de-charlestv5687]

Beautiful 😍

[@anthonyackerson86]

Clean job

[@doctorsaap]

Shouldnt we ask if he is ok to continue? Like does he need some pain killers or not?

[@aboowaisarrayes659]

Is stiffness of the neck is a sign or symptom?

[@d7mi4eve]

A symptom which is highly linked to meningitis, i’d put meningitis in differential diagnosis instead of migraine

[@yesilpaprika]

At what point do we offer pain relief? After the pain history where we learn its level?

[@mohammedalshammeri9918]

من مثلي جاي من تيم الاوسكي 😅😅

[@DrJeartM]

Good video but needs some improvement especially in interpersonal skills . Conversation looks scripted ,I wish if it could be more natural . otherwise patient very good actor !
