Hiba Imene how can you tell me about this program

My grandma was one of the most determined women I know. She lived for over 10 years on dialysis and still managed to travel a TON during that time. We went on cruises, to Disney World, and even to the Carribbean a few times. Just every 3rd day or so she would disappear for a while to go get dialysis treatment.

I was on peritoneal and Hemo dialysis, so I understand this. I was on dialysis ever day, but in December, I had my kidney transplant! I get to move home tomorrow! I was diagnosed at an 11 year old well care check up with the worst stage of FSGS. It’s been a long journey, but my disease was expected to come back, but it didn’t! 💚💚

Nephrology has always been a field I’ve kind of neglected because I never thought I would find it interesting enough to be passionate about early studies surrounding it. (I’m an aspiring doctor in the home stretch of high school!) But after watching this incredible video, I realized I’ve been wrong! Kidneys really are one of the most important factors of life support for the human body, and the technology developed to assist their function is so incredible. Thank you so much for enlightening me! (And I will definitely be making notes of your dialysis indication hack.)

Your the only recommended channel I've actual enjoyed watching enough to subscribe, the fact you do 24+ hour shifts is absolutely barbaric but the energy your bringing to and leave the shifts with is inspiring. You're a true heroine to me and probably to many, many others and so are your colleagues, keep up the amazing work you all do.

So fitting! I’m a nuc med tech and just recently had a discussion about a patient on dialysis. They were ordered to have a VQ due to their creatinine levels, but since they were scheduled to have dialysis that day, it was decided they could handle the CTA. Dialysis never ceases to amaze me. It helps so many people in more ways than one!

This is the kind of doctor I wanna work with. Licensed dialysis nurse here. Keep saving lives doc! 😊👍

Love your videos! As an RN, it’s very helpful to see everything the doctors are dealing with

This was so neat to see! I’m 16 and have stage 4 CKD, currently doing peritoneal dialysis (PD). I love your videos 💕

Retired Nephrology RN here x 25 years; I love how you explain everything about Dialysis and kidney failure. I loved the specialty and the patients, so many great relationships and super teaching moments! I miss my work so very much, forced to retire due to AS, back surgery w/ fusions and metal hardware. Thank you!❤️🩺🩻

I absolutely love that you add small clips that you’ve filmed when you go see patients. It makes me feel as though I go with you to see the patients. We can’t see them but it feels as you’re in the hospital just waiting for you to come out and tell us what’s going on. 😊 Great job on these videos Siobhan.

Have a friend who's at potential risk for kidney failure even with all that they're doing to maintain their health. I think they have a similar thing as your patient since they also have diabetes. This really helped give me insight into how Dialysis actually works and a better understanding of how I could understand what's going on in their life, so thank you!

I’m not in the medical field but I love watching your videos! It’s cool to see some of what goes on behind-the-scenes!

Thank you for this! Your videos have thoroughly helped me this month. My mom went into septic shock and full organ failure last month in Oakville and spent 12 days in ICU where she wasn't expected to survive. She is going to make a full recovery but is still on dialysis and of course still in hospital. The nurses and I at the hospital would watch your videos, it helped keep me calm during this very scary situation. Thank you so much for this channel and sharing all your knowledge

I am 15 and i watch all of her videos I love how she is always positive and smiling all the time. I really appreciate her time to make these videos for us to enjoy

Heyyy Siobhan I'm an Algerian medical student and I loooove your videos they're so motivating thank you!

I had kidney failure as a child, and was on dialysis as well at the age of 7. (I was throwing up EXCESSIVELY- that was my Mom's cue to knowing it was more than just the flu). ER sent us home initially, stating that the vomiting was just a bug, and to continue pushing fluids at home.. on top of the 2 bags that had already given me at the hospital! I will never forget the day that I had to call home because I was feeling weak and nauseous- was in 1st grade, and we were practicing a song on the carpet in the back of the room; "A E I O U....are vowels - A E I O U...are vowels - And sometimes..Y!" You can imagine how my jaw looked when I saw the acronym pop up in your video!!! Such a bizarre coincidence. 2nd trip to the hospital I had to be airlifted to University of Michigan Ann Arbor (Motts Children's) due to high blood pressure and my eyes rolling back in my head uncontrollably. It turned out that I had obtained staph infection from a procedure (stye lance) that was done a month or so prior, and that is what caused both of my kidneys to fail. I was put on dialysis for about a month, and struggled with protein levels for about 3 years after being diagnosed.. but thankfully, as a 27 year old today I am healthy and doing well! Mixed emotions watching this. :') Thanks for posting!

I love your videos sooo much!! I bet it’s not easy being a doctor and KZreadr! I’m a stay at home mom of four and have always dreamed of working in the medical field but put it on the back burner for the kids and family. I’ve learned so much from your videos! Keep them coming!!! You are amazing Much love!!!!!

@ellepowick7700

5 жыл бұрын

Dalia Barnouti In Australia, each coloured cap is a different type of blood test the Dr wants doing. Example, a pink top container is for when we need to match a patients blood type for a possible blood product transfusion. This is called a “group and hold” because we’re figuring out the patients blood type and holding that type blood

@temeparareihana4116

They represent what type of blood it is and what it is for and all of that

@micheller8404

5 жыл бұрын

I know you asked her but I’m a phlebotomist and I’d figure I’d help answer. In the US it’s dependent on what the doctor has ordered. Each tube has a particular additive or lack of. A blue top is normally for coagulation tests. When spun it leaves citrated plasma. This is used to test for clotting factors. Such as a prothrombin time/Protime/INR A gold top is called an SST, you can use the red top too. It’s a serum tube. So once you spin the blood down in a centrifuge it separates the blood and leaves serum on top. You can use serum for a LOT of tests. Chemistry tests like a metabolic panel(usually use plasma in the US but can use serum too), to rule out certain diseases, etc. Green tops or PSTs are heparinized. They when spun instead of plasma have blood on bottom and plasma on top. These are also used for chemistry tests such as a metabolic panel, potassium, antibiotic levels, magnesium levels, acetaminophen, acetone etc. lots with this one. Lavender tubes are for hematology tests. So tests that look at different blood counts/cells. Gray tops are usually for latic acids which are used to determine sepsis, and for ETOH(alcohol levels) Pink tops are normally for type and screens. You can draw a pink tube and get the persons blood type and cross match it to match it to donor blood so they can have a transfusion if they need one. They can also be for ABO/RH in women. :)
