Surgeons: At the Edge of Life S4E6
The major trauma team in Addenbrooke's are up against the clock to treat some of the country's most critically injured patients. Chef Adrian is rushed to hospital in the early hours of the morning after crashing his motorbike at high speed, trapping his arm between the crash barrier and impaling his abdomen with a piece of metal. Having lost a third of his circulating blood, Adrian is in a critical condition when he arrives in the trauma department’s resus bay with potential internal haemorrhaging along with the threat of losing a limb.
Led by Dr Mariam Imam, a specialist major trauma team rapidly assembles to assess the external damage before Adrian is sent to CT to see if the metal has pierced any vital organs. The scan very quickly rules this out, so all attention turns to his arm and hand, which are so badly mangled that his hand is potentially beyond repair. Emergency surgeons assess the arm and rush Adrian to theatre so that consultant plastic and hand surgeon Alex Reid can explore the extent of the damage. After determining that there is decent blood supply to the hand, Adrian’s limb is stabilised until he can undergo further surgery.
Forty-eight hours later, Adrian is brought back to theatre with consultant plastic and hand surgeon Ian Grant. He and his surgical colleagues must decide whether they can save Adrian's hand.
Back in the emergency department, the major trauma team prepare for the arrival of another injured patient, a 25-year-old man transferred to Addenbrooke's from hospital in Colchester. Cawley has been assaulted and after hitting his head on the pavement has a life-threatening bleed on the brain. Having been assessed at Colchester, Cawley was put in an induced coma to control the build-up of pressure within his brain and then transferred to Addenbrooke's, which has the trauma specialists he needs for treatment.
At Addenbrooke's, the on-call neurosurgical team, with consultant Angelos Kolias and senior registrar Harry Bulstrode, are on standby to perform an emergency craniotomy to remove the build-up of blood within Cawley’s brain.
Back down in resus, the red phone alerts the team of another incoming patient who has been involved in a head-on car accident. Thirty nine-year-old Sarah has been significantly injured in a high-impact collision which has left her with a broken leg and fractured c-spine. If Sarah doesn’t receive emergency care, the spine fracture could become dislodged and sever the spinal cord, leaving her paralysed from the neck down.
With an injury threatening the spinal cord, Dr Sarah Hazelman and a team of trauma doctors immediately arrange for a CT scan to assess the severity of the fracture. After seeing that the fracture is stable, priorities rapidly switch when the scan picks up that a shard of bone from her broken leg is pressing on an artery, which could lead to severe complications and the loss of Sarah's foot if the blood flow is not quickly restored.
On-call trauma and orthopaedic surgeon Hassan Fawi has to act rapidly to reset Sarah's leg and restore the flow of blood. Only then can the attention return to the fractured neck, which needs to be kept stable.
Two days after the accident, consultant orthopaedic spinal surgeon Doug Hay has to carefully rebuild the broken vertebrae in Sarah's neck using a small piece of bone from her hip along with a titanium plate to secure the join. Without the operation, Sarah could become paralysed, but there is also a risk of causing permanent damage to the spinal cord during the operation itself.

Stranded! The Andes Plane Crash Survivors
Frustrating. If a doctor misdiagnoses a serious illness, what are the chances of a good outcome? Overpopulation/ overconsumption + any economic system predicated on growth + leadership incentivized, invested in business as usual + an exhausted, poisoned, overheated, FINITE, Earth = Overshoot. Climate change is not the root problem. It is a symptom or consequence of Overshoot. Global Industrial civilization is an artifact generated by our evolutionary development. Climate change will not be resolved, remedied, or significantly mitigated, as long as global industrial civilization operates. All efforts to stop climate change will fail. William Catton, William Rees, Nate Hagens, Simon Michaux, Alice Friedemann, Gail Tverberg, B. Sidney Smith, and others have material on CZcams, on Overshoot. Do you due diligence on Overshoot. Or don’t.
The best and complete documentary of all !!!
No hay otra historia... Está es la única historia.
El mejor documental que he visto 😢😢😢 increíble lo que pasaron
Thanks for uploading this video
Me hubiese gustado haberla visto terminando su carrera de computación… allá en esa Aula Magna
man, nothing has changed... it got worse
Excellent documentary.
la ventisca de al final😢❤❤ dioss !!
Not now or any time soon will this video have alot of views but one day the people will come back to this movie and ask themself "why didn't we save ourselfs when we had the chance to?"
Thanks for the uploads these videos are fascinating to watch.
A esa altura imposible ver los sobrevivientes
20:15
I can't imagine what those guys went through. It wouldn't surprise me if they suffered from survivors guilt
Gratidão 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Deus continue a vos abençoar grandemente 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 e tudo de melhor para vocês e para os seus! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Agro-saudações 🙏🏻🤗🤠🧑🏻🌾🌱🌿🌾🌽🚜🚛🇧🇷💚💛💙🇧🇷
I'm here after Society of the Snow. The plane crash was amazingly well done. I wonder if they could bring theirselves to watch it?
Nando was a technical advisor in the film set. He and Roberto have seen it. They said it was well done but still fictional, and that if there was ever a movie made that accurately depicted what daily life was like no one would watch it, because it would be too horrific and graphic
Also some of the survivors were in the movie themselves:)
Those boys looked like movie stars. So handsome.
Im fascinated with this story,every show every article.How those young men survived is amazing and how Nando and Roberto walked out over those mountains is miraculous.
esa es la garra charrua...nunca se dan por vencidos los uruguayos...igual que los guanacos salvadoreños....las poblaciones de los dos paises son similares tambien
really enjoyed watching this :)
Life metaphor
Amazing documentary.
i have a picture from my fav beach from 40 years ago, i just checked it the other day, the water level is exactly the same... 10cm +- at most, so when is that sea coming? i would like to have my house on the beach already
dont get too cocky, anything could happen
@@revilo1340 not anything! stupidity is always indestructible
@@seekter-kafatrue
Does anyone know why they haven't brought the bodies of those who did not make it back? I have not researched it, but it would seem possible, at least today.. It just seems like a nightmare and somehow not right to leave them there, in that place they wanted to leave so much..
I don’t know. But I have read on internet that one father has get the remainings back of his son and burried in a normal graveyard. Other remainings still there
From what I found online, only 13 of the bodies at the time were still whole, while the other 15 were just skeletons. I would imagine they didn't want to risk giving the wrong family the wrong one. So instead they had a priest and 12 men go where they made a common grave for everyone. This way the land would be blessed in a way and allow them all to be 'at peace' in a way
All families agreed that the best place for them to stay was on the mountain. All families except one: Rafael Echevarren family. Why? Because he was one of the last guys to die and he was always saying "My name is Rafael Echevarren and Im going to come back home". So family decided to bring him back home.
At first, it was a political thing, since the rescue was done by the Chilean Air Force, but the bodies were on Argentinian soil (heck, the pilot of the rescue helicopter was even hesitant to land for that very same reason), so getting them out could be considered an act of war. Then came all the other reasons listed by the other comments
I think it’s one of the greatest miracle story, Indeed God show us our way and light our darkness if we don’t give up..the farmer in the other side of river was God sent angel as well
I am here after the Netflix movie... altough i saw the movie made in '90s.It's an incredible story about the human spirit,the human body,the will to live,friendship and survival.Even now it sound incredible...
Society of the snow is brilliant film making!!!
The question I am asking myself is: would I be able to eat human flesh? I guess we never know untill the need comes..
@@josealqueresOf course you would. You've never been starved in your life. Even when it comes to strict dieters, they still get some nutrients to stay alive and they're reassured in the knowledge there's food they can buy in shops if they need it. For these young people however there was NOTHING to eat whatsoever, and their desperate situation had no end in sight. Their bodies were eating themselves, their organs about to fail. That's when the organism start to scream for food and it pushes you to do whatever you have to do in order to survive. I've been a vegetarian for 30 years and the sight of meat disgusts me but I know I'd never hesitate to eat a human - providing they were already dead - in order to stay alive. If it wasn't me, it'd be a Condor or any other living organism eating that body anyway. I'd rather be me.
@@Basauri_48970 Totalmente de acuerdo contigo. Namasté...
Oh man, even though I thought Roberto Canessas thoughts were very insightful, the moment he started eating/crunching snow WHILE he was talking about what it meant to have had to resort to eating parts of their friends .. it was a weird mix of cringe funny at realizing the involuntary inappropriateness and at the same time being touched by the weight of his words.. i can imagine it must have been some kind of coping mechanism in those moments, dealing with the weight of having to expose this experience to a camera.. You can see he has thought deeply about everything that's happened.. all of them actually.. their testimonies are incredibly powerful..
Hahaha I know right, out of all times to casually eat snow, while talking about eating humans
@@soulsurfer639 major facepalm moment.. i had to stop the video to actually facepalm 😆
that is not a facepalm moment. that is a very sad coping moment. @@florentinalestaru7273
I didn't feel like it was a face palm. I read it as a very subtle way to show just a little bit of what they went through. Before they figured out how to melt the snow up on top of the fuselage and collect it in bottles to drink, they had to constantly eat snow - just as he is doing, desperately trying to quench their thirst and never really succeeding.
Rescue anniversary today. I think about it every run up to Christmas, I'm not very religious but this amazing feat of mankind, the struggle and survival of people so young is monumental.
51 years ago, Nando & Roberto found José Catalan across the river.
First
Yessss I did it!
LIFE IS PRECIOUS BUT SOMETIMES CRUEL, WHY ? ? ?🤔
Because God only exists in our imagination.
I watched this many years ago and am re-watching it now. It is unnerving to hear in 2023 the info in a 2008 film with a temperature threshold warning for 2015 that we did not even come close to meeting. What I tell people is "Apologize to your kids. And if you dont have kids, dont have kids." We are doomed.
this story never gets old. Amazing that they survived a plane crash an avalanche and freezing weather for three months.
This should be watched by all! An excellent docu. Thank you 😊
Amazing work being done by brave and talented specialists 🙏
1:28:41 Roberto: "I was tired" Nando: "Bitch you were dying" 😂
lol that gave me a good chuckle
I'm the Daniel featured. Those are my bowels :)
Thank you 🙏
Thank you 🙏
Thank you 🙏
I love this series. What shocks me isn't seeing inside of people but the slow evolution in helping women with a major negative intrusion to a normal life. It's been a massive problem for women for so long, you'd hope we would have found something more advanced. To my limited knowledge, men's treatment for urinary or "related" health seemed to generate more interest, earlier. I'm biased as a woman but the sacrifices made by my gender in bearing children- loss of bladder control, loss of sensation especially after hysterectomies simply due to lack of care regarding the nerves leading to the genitals... It wasn't even known for a long time. Wonder how much all that scar tissue impacted this poor lady. So many wondrous things have happened in medicine, yet moved slowly in other areas. Wouldn't know any of this without amazing programs like this.
4th degree tear while giving birth also contributes to severe bladder and bowel control.
