Surgeons, what was your "OH CR*P" moment?

Basic rule: Never lie to your doctor or lawyer

Story 13. Your narration did do the story justice. I felt it when you said “GODLESS BASTARD” when the op reached for the empty box of peppermint oil.

Didn't think I'd hear the "Swamps of dagobah" story in this lmao

The reality is, despite all the education health care workers receive, every single person has a bit of variance in their vessels, organs, skin, etc. We say it’s an art backed by science.

This was the wrong video to listen to over my lunch break.

For some levity: Im a woman. When i had surgery done to remove my gallbladder, i had the all male team. They kept referring to themselves as the Chippendales

Tell the narrator that his telling of the Swamps of Dagobah story was done justice, cause my lord that must’ve been hard to read even a second time

The Swamps of Dagobah story is a good example of why you shouldn't assume someone is faking their pain. She was DEFINITELY in a lot of pain with a whole tunnel of necrosis in her digestive tract.

I wasn't expecting the "Swamps of Dagobah" story to be snuck in

Dang it, DO NOT EAT before surgery. You can die. In eye surgery, you can go blind if you don't die. EDIT: you did a really good job with the medical terminology

Story 11 is now the latest reason i am never getting pregnant. This uterus is closed for business

People don’t understand about the food and fluid restrictions are for their safety.

somebody tell 32 that, being underage, that signature was invalid legally speaking, and he can sue for god knows how much, asuming it hasn't been that long, and assuming the signature wasn't a parent's

The redhead thing is so true. My husband has red hair and has woken up in the middle of surgery before. He has to get more than the max amount of pain meds

We went in for a hysterectomy ( getting the uterus out) of a 35ish patient, an hour and a half surgery), sonogram said myomatosis ( bumps of muscle in the uterine wall) , we open up, and it's cancer all over the abdominal cavity, about to close the bladder and the colon, 10 hours later, we had cleared out what we could. Thanks to that the patient lived longer, and more comfortably

How can anything signed under those conditions possibly be considered legally binding? He was in absolute agony, exhausted and heavily drugged.

My first oh crap moment. Final semester of nursing school. I was in my team leading/ advanced care rotation. I was assigned 5 patients. One of my patients was going for a bronchoscope to have a biopsy for probable lung cancer. I had just finished report and decided to check him first, since he was scheduled to go early. Walked in his room to find him dead. No heart beat, no breathing. I hit the code blue button and jump on the bed and start CPR. Ironically, I had been a CPR instructor for about 6 years then. As I’m waiting for the code team to assemble and take over, another student, first year, walks into the room, screams, then runs out. My nursing instructor had arrived now and I quickly told her to go after the other student. The code team came and though we coded him for a long time, he didn’t survive. I found out later that the student was his granddaughter and she was just coming by to check on him and encourage him before his procedure. I felt awful when I heard this. Can’t imagine routinely checking on someone to find them being resuscitated.

A release signed while high on meds is worthless

12:05 hey, I'm not a chronic drug abuser....I just have endometriosis where NOTHING touches my pain except anesthesia....doctors tend to think I'm an addict 💀 .....nope, just an incurable disease 😭

Story 32: That’s so dirty that they had OP sign a liability release wager while they’re drugged up.
