Day in the Life of a DOCTOR: MEDICAL EMERGENCIES

[@hailey8941]

Why can’t there be more doctors like you out there. You’re so friendly!

I think her energy is super refreshing. I do wonder how long it'll last, though. A lot of times, people become jaded or just sorta level out as they gain more experience. My surgeon is a chill guy. But he definitely doesn't have that glowing enthusiasm for new adventure that I've noticed from younger people in the field. Just a personal observation.

[@user-mb4ig1bq5p]

@@Xentrolis People in general are more jovial and happier when younger lol. Life gets to you especially with Docs and their career.

I'm not a negative person or anything. And I'm excited to tackle new problems. But I'm not smiling every moment of the workday.

How do you deal with losing patients since you said most of he time the don’t make it after a code blue is it hard and how do you cope with it and not let it get to you

[@ViolinMD]

Great question Courtney - I think that deserves its own video!

[@ThatMedic]

That’s so rare!!! 1 in 3 inpatient codes are unsuccessful :( I’m glad your patient made it!! Most are so unwell they end up with unshockable rhythms and RIP 😢😢

[@mikahong]

You know I love the ER, Im not a doctor or med student, but I think the ER is the coolest and most adrenaline filled department in the hospital, thats my thing. If I were to work in the medical field I would prob wanna be in the ER

[@missmollyk8]

this might sound a little weird but ive heard a lot of times it can get so busy you don't have a chance to use the bathroom. what do you do as a female when that happens but you're on your period and need to change?

[@Angellarocque85]

Well obviously she would have to make time just enough to change. Periods stop for no one. 😫🙄

[@09crafty09]

Your acting like we wait till the last minute. Sheesh. We know within probably the last 2-4 hours our thingys need to be changed. Like yeah. "Oh it's about time" boom change. like that's such an ignorant question.

[@ashleyvanfleet2523]

09crafty09 I think that this response is a bit unfair as some people have more challenges with their periods. Sometimes things happen and you need to take care of it. I don’t think this is an ignorant question at all.

[@beauwhitehouse123]

I have a question in this ball park: How do you always manage to vlog with no one around? You seem to walk through doors with no hesitation and continue vlogging.

[@derekschmitz3488]

From what I understand, I have a condition that requires PT in a hospital, they are allowed as long as they do not disclose identity (hair color, name, family name, etc) and are very vague when describing specifics on diagnoses

Your enthusiasm is contagious 😀

Please please do a video about what it’s like interacting with all the patients! Is it stressful? Fun? Or do a video of what its like on pediatrics floor!! (If your hospital doesn’t have one, what it’s like working with pediatric patients)!!

Have been binging your videos like crazy for the past couple hours, it’s always so interesting to see stuff like this! I just had a question, when you go into a sleep room if someone had sleep apnea and required a mask to sleep in case they stopped breathing while resting would someone be able to bring their mask with them? I understand about being on call but I’m curious if someone with sleep apnea would be able to bring their mask with them or not

Can I recommend you setting an alarm on your phone to remind you to turn on your pager? I think it could take some of the anxiousness out of that situation, and make for a more relaxing time off:) Oh my gosh, you work extremely hard! Not only with matters of life and death, but very long hours, and where you are in high demand from all over the hospital! My hat is off to you!!!! Thank you for being there to give comfort to those in need, and assistance in very stressful situations!

What were you saying about the mask/code blue cause? I couldn't hear it very well sorry! :)

[@ViolinMD]

Oh really? Darn... I was trying not too talk too loud in the area of the hospital I was in! I was saying it was a respirator mask because the patient was in droplet precautions (contagious in the air) - the mask was really tight... good for protecting me but it made me really warm and made red marks on my face!! Haha

Why do you say in hospital instead of in the hospital? Not sure if it’s a med term or something just wondering:)

I think that's a regional thing. We usually say in the hospital here, but I know when I lived up north they said in hospital. :)

[@blueblueberry4973]

I love how you keep such a positive attitude. I get so stressed out sometimes at work, and my job is not nearly as intense as yours!! Obviously I'm sure your life isn't always sunshine and roses but it's really encouraging to watch. I'm sure the patients appreciate your smile too

Who else is on a nostalgia trip now that she's OFFICIALLY done with her residency?! (I can't spell her specialty and autocorrect won't help me rip)

[@emma.faith.g8521]

If you're a first year medical resident, how many years of medical schooling have you done? How many more years of residency do you have left? and are you still in medical "school" persay? (meaning your attending lectures or have exams)

[@Aznnvazn99]

The path to becoming a doctor is 4 years of med school, then residency, which length varies depending on specialty. So if you're a resident, you have graduated med school, but residents still have lectures given by the doctors at the hospital. You are not considered to still be in med school once youve become a resident. There is a board exam in the 1st year of residency, but no other exam that I know of. I think she is a family medicine resident, which is 3 years.

[@emma.faith.g8521]

I've had a pulmonary embolism before. Caused in part by septicaemia from a uti I didn't know I had as I had no other symptoms than frequent urination. I collapsed at home, heart rate was up near 200bpm bp was sky high and was put on warfrin(i think that's the way it's spelled) to dissolve the PE. Was also put on IV antibiotics and had to spend 5 days in the cardiac ward because the infection was making it hard to stabilize my heart rate and BP.

The power of observation 🧐. A child is brought in a toxic state, almost fainting. I start IV antibiotics for meningitis, diagnosed by the purulent discharge in the left ear. Since this is a medical emergency, I started tx before labs. Also, I myself was almost collapsing, being 3 days into Falciparum malaria. Both recovered after about a month..... Dr. J, 1992.
