(boing noise)
- Oh my gosh.
(Jordan laughing)
Drumming drama going off the deep end
and a whole lot of other cat and mouse mischief.
Get ready to laugh because today we are breaking down
and reacting to all of the hilarious medical scenes
and over the top injuries to an all-time great animation,
Tom and Jerry.
All right, let's dive right in.
(clicking noise)
(motor running)
Oh.
(Jordan laughing)
Typically, what we'll end up seeing is somebody might
amputate a finger or they'll cause a laceration.
If you have a laceration,
hold pressure to the area, wrap it, get to the hospital
then we'll typically get an x-ray.
We'll make sure that there's no foreign bodies
inside the wound and make sure that the tendons are intact.
Make sure your nerves are intact
If it's amputated, whole different story.
( mouse clicks)
(dramatic music)
(soft piano scale)
(Jordan laughs)
- Oh my gosh, who's gotten something slammed on their foot?
I have, it hurts like the dickens.
A lot of times people will just come
to the emergency department
for an x-ray just to see if they did break it.
If you break a toe, there's really not much to do it.
You pretty much buddy tape it next to the one next to it.
(mouse clicking)
Uh oh.
Oh, bad idea.
In this case, getting hit directly
with an object on your head.
Things we think about is the laceration
that potentially will occur.
Fracture to the bone that will occur
and then the underlying structures.
You're getting such a blow
to the head that you're causing a subdural hematoma,
unlikely an epidural hematoma.
(mouse clicks)
Oh my God.
Whoa.
It happens, you gotta be really careful where you stick your
fingers into the bowling ball and you might not
be able to get them out.
And it has to do with the fact that like your knuckles
those machines that do those pins are actually
really dangerous.
You have to be very careful because they're like
solid metal structures that come down with force.
Be careful with that.
(mouse clicks)
(drumming and metal clanging)
Wow.
He's made it to a turtle.
That's funny.
With the drums, you gotta be careful, right?
You know, worry about your eardrums.
Too much loud noise.
You don't wanna perforate your tympanic membrane or
cause chronic curing loss from you know
too much loud music.
So maybe throw some earplugs in to protect them.
Then okay, worry about your eyeballs.
Be careful if those drumsticks don't get them,
hit in your eye.
It does happen, corneal lacerations or abrasions.
(mouse clicks)
We're on a cruise ship sunbathing.
Yeah.
Wow they're friends?
Yeah.
(crashing noise)
What?
Imagine that happened, you'd lose a separation
of your limbs, all of them at the same time.
Tourniquet every single thing and get somebody to a hospital
in a timely fashion.
Then you actually have to be transported to a re-plantation
basically like facility where they can actually
put everything back together hopefully.
But it's pretty rare for that to occur.
(mouse clicking)
(Jordan giggles)
Later, he's going to go off the ship.
Right, I've seen stories in the news where people
literally fall off cruise ships.
Falling off a cruise ship, that height is immense.
And then obviously falling into the water.
You're hitting it like a ton of bricks right?
(mouse clicks)
Oh he's taking all the water out of the water.
What?
Oh man, that's where your body definitely would feel
like jumping at the pool and hitting the bottom.
You worry about cervical fractures.
You worry about, obviously, brain injury
and skull fractures.
(mouse clicks)
(piano scales)
Oh my gosh.
Bad idea.
Oh it's like a baseball bat.
Love it.
Oh.
Oh, look at those swollen eyes.
Oh
Getting hit in the front, fracture your frontal sinus,
which actually sits right here.
There's like air in between the bones
so you can have a head injury
a coup contrecoup injury of your brain where it
slashes back and forth.
You can break your nose, eye traumas.
(mouse clicks)
Oh God.
Oh my gosh, you know that is a nasty cervical injury.
Look how stretched out that is.
Obviously that happened.
I've literally run so fast, turn my head to
try to catch a footballers in somebody's backyard
and smacked my head right into the tree.
Oh, oh my gosh, I knew that was gonna happen.
(gum balls rattle)
Be careful with the gum.
I've seen people break their teeth
because this gum just sits around all the time.
So it's super hard.
So if you had that type of device in or around your face
it's gonna cause a significant amount
of soft tissue skeletal problems where you get a blow
off the bone blast injuries.
We'll see a lot of times hollow organs
or things with air in them will have issues.
And then the other thing you worry about
is definitely your lungs causing like a pneumothorax.
Oh, What?
I haven't seen anybody swallow a ladle.
I've seen screws, I've seen nails.
Typically a gastroenterologist will go in to get them
out of the stomach if they've come in in a timely manner.
Oh
Who has ever done that?
That's like the classic joke in movies that sticks up
so people typically will step on that part.
Nails you in the head.
Cause some head trauma.
What?
Yeah, right. Knew that was gonna happen.
You try to drown it, oh my gosh.
That's awesome, good creativity.
Now would a woodpecker be able to put
that many holes through your belly?
Probably unlikely.
(mouse clicking)
An iron to the head.
Right there you're getting a cervical fracture.
You gotta be really careful.
Hopefully it's not on.
I mean, you can also get simple burns.
Oh, using a crowbar, oh my gosh.
Look at those nails.
Oh, and the fingers
You know, crush injuries to the foot.
We get x-rays.
It's gonna swell up a lot.
The concern is, which bone is it,
is it proximal is a distal is it's more lateral than medial.
This show was actually very relatable
as I see these types of injuries every single day in the ER.
