Now that ladies and gentleman, is an example of the janitor performing CPR on a pt.

if you are treating a patient, you NEED to wear gloves…period!

Pretty sure the nurse was checking pulse, not inserting IV, around 0:09 and 0:26 you can see everything already on the arm.

looks like a bad car accident injury

How many of you morons are licensed practitioners?!

flail chest is when you have two or more ribs broken in two or more places. the ribs can rub against the lungs and heart and cause internal injury.

you need to wear gloves when inserting an IV or anytime that you could come into contact with blood or body fluids. standard precautions against blood-borne pathogens.

no need for gloves when inserting iv…

0:38 Check out how that nurse is putting an IV in with no gloves on, wow!

If we’re talking first aid the best thing to do is tape the “flailing part” to reduce movement. I’ve heard that flailchest is very painful, and the lesser the movement the lesser the pain.

omg, that was weird. and yet, it was awesome!!!

i’m guessing the bulky dressing was from a chest tube that was inserted to drain fluids from the plura to avoid the lung from collapsing….
November 25th, 2009 at 6:17 am
Looks nuts! Would a bulky dressing help in this situation or just pressure bandaging?

treatment for this is putting clips/hooks on the detached ribs to prevent lung/heart puncture due to paradoxical motion (broken parts moves in during inhalation then moves out in exhalation)

Dear god someone just help him, I cannot bare to watch this anymore. Poor fella

treatment for a flail chest would be applying pressure to the flail area to prevent the broken segment from moving so much. PPV could cause a lung puncture or pneumo.

It’s not a piano, it’s the heart monitor in the backround!!
November 25th, 2009 at 7:54 am
what is that?
November 25th, 2009 at 8:10 am
CPAP! PLEASE
November 25th, 2009 at 8:31 am
Oh, I have had flail chest like four times. It’s not that bad. I walked it off and was back to work the next morning.

i think they usually hook the broken ribs and the rig up some kind of pully weight system to pull the ribs back so that they dont move with the lung. haha

lol whats up with that piano sound?
