Your neon sign is written in doctors font.
Aaah, that’s why it says ‘suck’.
No it isn't... I can actually read it. ;^)
FlippyTuna that's right! I saw that too.🤗
Lol me too...Sucknetes? Of course I know what it should say but...Sucknetes.
Lol
A healthy red blood cell lives for at least around 13 episodes
I hate you.
27 chapters, actually.
... hmph
Priscabc I don’t get it..........
Christian Vince There’s an anime called “Cells at work” that follows a red blood cell. Dr. Hope has reacted to some of the episodes.
I’m watching this on the train and Ash-prin broke me 😂 love the puns
right? I was like, "What the Heck?" hahahahaha
i actually applied the exact same logic when i did it before watching the video (and im a 5th year med student)
Where's the patella?
Dr. Hope: "On the head."
Me: *Unsubscribed*
Dr. Hope: "I'm just kidding."
Me: "You got me good." *Resubscribed.*
"Where's the patella?"
Dr Hope: On the head
Me (with no medical knowlegde of any kind and doing the test at the same time): Interesting...
Dr Hope: I'm Just kidding, its on the knee
Me: Well, this was a tricky one...
Jessi_9311 Hahahaha, same!
Yeah, I also had a moment of 'wait, what?"
Top 10 things that never happened
The patella is located on the knees.
You told my favorite story about evidence-based medicine at 2:07. The worst part of this story: Ignaz Semmelweis, the person who researched the death rates on the maternity ward in Vienna, was a junior doctor at the time. And even though he managed to lower the death rates from 13% to around 1% by making medical students wash their hands in calcium chlorite, nobody believed him - medicine was (and sometimes still is) more eminence-based than evidence-based. All the professors still believed in the miasma theory (and felt like he had undermined the authority of the doctors). Semmelweis eventually lost his job, had to move back to Hungary and died in a psychiatric hospital (supposedly as the result of an intrigue.)
Mortem Interitum I remember reading about this. It's so sad. Maternal care has come so far but unfortunately it could still be so much better in alot of first world countries.
One might in fact say this was the first (or one of the first) clinical trial on record, i.e the first time medicine was tested by installing a practice and assessing the outcome with real data.
Semmelweis might have been the most vocal, but he was hardly the only, let alone the _first_. As much as half a century before Semmelweis, Alexander Gordon was already noticing that male doctors could catch 'childbed fever' from cadavers and recommending handwashing with chlorine for attendants. Thomas Watson and Oliver Wendell Holmes followed suit some years before Semmelwies, with James Young Simpson at about the same time.
Which makes it worse that everyone ignored all of them, but hey, at least the British and American doctors weren't fired and committed, I guess?
(As far as I can tell, the major competing theories at the time actually didn't include miasma.They were putrefaction: result of parts of the placenta left behind or prolonged contact to other decaying matter, and inflammation: a natural part of childbirth. Basically, sucks to be female.)
I've read somewhere that he has also lost his wife at the birth of their child as well due to the doctor not washing their hands
Thanks for filling in the rest of that story, sad though it ended up. So were doctors at least washing their hands with soap, before the suggestion was made to use calcium chlorite?? I can't imagine not instinctually wanting to wash my hands in between poking around inside a cadaver and attending to a pregnant woman.
I always remembered niacin was B3 because it takes 3 lines to make a capital N. It's weird the things that stick with you, haha.
hahaha that's awesome
Perfect way to learn - make a story that makes sense to you but not necessarily anyone else. The crazy stuff sticks around longest.
Nice~ I love memorizing like that. Tho I also rmmbr someone making fun of how I memorize it lol. As long as I rmmbr it, why not? 😉
It's called "Mnemonics". The best way to remember something.
reminds me of how in middle school i remembered cations being positively charged because cats are nice and good but anions = an ion, and ions are hard to remember and suck so they're negatively charged lmao
I never understand what statistical questions like the one about aids or historical anecdotes ought to have to do with the medical knowledge you use as a doctor. You ask me if that mole is cancerous, I might be able to tell you right away - and treat you properly. You ask me how many people die by rabies each year or if Aesculap was egyptian in origin, I'll shrugg and still not be a worse doctor for it.
I believe it's so you know what to look for. An example from my own life I had a paralyzed vocal cord (only one thankfully) and when I went to my primary doctor he gave a tentative diagnosis of nodules. I don't blame him for this, vocal cord paralysis is exceptionally uncommon, especially for someone still in high school, so guessing it was nodules was a good call, especially after it was explained (not by me, I couldn't exactly talk) that I was in choir, where nodules are especially common.
@@arctic_line I totally understand what you mean, and it is important, since it helps the doctor to think of the most/less likely reason for the symptoms of a patient. But what the OP is referring to is that, for example, it's really not important to know how many people were killed by AIDS during a specific amount of years. Those kind of numbers are not supposed to be remembered exactly; the important thing to get from them is that AIDS is a really really serious disease, and that's why it needs a lot of attention. So it's ridiculous to ask something like that on a test that is supposed to prove your medical knowledge, knowing that getting that question right or wrong proves nothing.
I knew the asprin one. You can get willow bark supplements for horses to help with pain and inflammation, and horses will also self-medicate and forage on willow bark if they are feeling ill.
I only knew the Aspirin question because I learned that it's it's a Salicylic Acid derivative In O-Chem and I remember reading a while back that Salicylic Acid was derived from the Willow Bark.
for me it was from a tim minchen song.
Well damn, I learned this specific fact in like 3rd grade because my school was nature crazy and we had a botanist come in and tell us tree facts
Abdulla A. Yes! I hated Ochem but at least I knew a random quiz answer lol
I knew it because willow bark tea is a well known anti febrile in the natural medicine circles.
I know it from a children’s series, Circle of Magic, wherein Briar’s Book is all about a magic-contamination- plague going through a city and even though it’s children’s fantasy, as an adult I’m amazed at how much actual information was grafted into this plague story.
There is a manga called Jin that's about a modern doctor that goes to the 1850s (Japan) and treats them with modern medical techniques (western medicine), performing procedures, creating penicillin from scratch, treating syphilis, with tools that don't quite exist yet. I hope you take a read. I know there's a Japanese drama of it but I don't know much about that. When I read the manga, I felt there was so much medical knowledge being jammed into my head that I felt like a doctor by the end.
Cool! Thanks for the recommendation. I've often pondered scenarios of anachronistic technology being brought from the future, and what effects it'd have.
I love that Manga lol. It's really cool and makes me feel like I'm learning something even if I might not remember anything I've read.
the japan movie also quite good
There’s also a drama series I believe also named Jin. I used to watch it as a kid and got addicted lol
@@dawn8525 Yes, that drama was the adaptation of the manga. The drama was very successful.
I was entertained. Though that was more like weird trivia than anything a doctor would actually know..
Last year I had a guest lecture from a guy who has Huntington's. He didn't have any symptoms yet, but his mother did. Must be awful to see your future like that.
He told a story about how his mother was not super happy when they he was expecting his third child, because it meant she could't baby sit for a while. She used to be a kindergarten teacher, but had to stop working after she bruised a couple of children by holding them to tight. She didn't have the control over her muscles anymore. So sad. It's the worst combination of Parkinson and Alzheimer. Even worse is that the patients know they will get sick years before it actually happens.
I'm a medical student and would agree that basal cell carcinoma is one of "the best cancers to have", but I've seen a severe case were the tumor had grown into the spine leaving the spinal column exposed for all of us to see and paralyzing the patient from the waist down. It had also spread to the brain making the patient psychotic. It can definitely do a lot of damage if untreated.
Hey! I thought I'd do a nice easy video today; turns out the quiz was hard, the studio was super hot and the editing took me ages.... Still hope you all enjoy! Leave a comment if you scored more than me... and you can take over the channel!
CORRECTIONS TO A COUPLE OF ANSWERS BELOW:
Q9: Which is the LEAST common common form of skin cancer? The answer is melanoma. I accidentally talk about the question as 'the MOST common type of skin cancer' which is as I state Basal Cell Carcinoma; I mark myself correct as error carried forward :) Thanks to everyone that pointed this out, and also this highlights you must ALWAYS READ THE QUESTION!
Q11. Which dangerous infectious disease has been extinct ‘in the wild’ since the late 1970’s? Apparently the two places with Smallpox stored are in USA and Russia.
And other corrections, let me know!
I didn't do better then you but better then I thought I would! I got 3 less then you. Does this mean I can now be a Dr. In a 3rd world country? 😂 Love your videos❤
Tiff Me noooooo
I thought melanoma was the least common skin cancer, and basal cell was the MOST common...?
And nope, I definitely did not get a higher score than you did! :D and I love your videos!
Dr Hope's Sick Notes I love that you upload so much at the time! :)
i took the test with you and my result is that i am a medical marval
This is pretty funny. Especially when you guessed the first time and it turned out correct. I wouldn't use that logic though. To be honest I think your new sign makes your room look like a masseuse office... and not the legal kind :'D
Then I have achieved my aim perfectly! Haha yeh I'll try and make it a bit less saucy
I think that says more about what sort of places you spend your time sully Scully.... hah
“Hippocrates, a Greek chap”
Your advise on picking the longer answer is fast becoming obsolete. The National board of Medical Examiners actually advise the question makers to prevent the longest or most accurate description to be the correct answer, as test savvy students then can ace a test, without ever know a thing about the subject. I've just had to make my first MCQ test for first year pharmacy students, and I took great pains to make the right answer of middle length or same length as the rest. When I analyzed the test, it was pretty clear that many students just chose the longest answer as a default. Just a heads up for any future students.
he's waay too cute. i know that isn't a factor and that he's really smart too but he's hella nice to look at.
those eyes could heal
I was hoping you'd explain positive and negative feedback systems - it was the one thing I could never grasp and understand in school and university...Google never helped haha!!
You should do more of these types of quizzes - It gives you the opportunity to explain a lot of terminology. Keep up the great work :D
Negative feedback systems brings your body back into balance and positive feedback systems have a cascading effect (increases stimuli). Your body gets too hot (up), so your sympathetic nervous system causes you to sweat bringing your body temperature back (down) to what is normal, or back into balance. That is a negative feedback system. Now say you cut yourself. Your blood platelets begin to stick to the wound and attract (more) platelets until the wound is fully clotted (increasing the stimuli). I always think of positive feedback as a cascade (instead of the stimuli reducing the response it increases it). The stimuli continues to increase until the task is done (the baby is out of the birth canal, the baby is done drinking milk, the wound clotted, etc.). The purpose is not to bring you back to homeostasis, or balance, but to accomplish a specific task like blood clotting, milk production, or contractions during delivery. Things like body temperature regulation, production of insulin to reduce blood sugar, maintenance of mineral levels in the blood supply (like Calcium), etc. are all negative feedback systems because the goal is to maintain equilibrium. When your negative feedback systems aren't working properly and your body goes into homeostatic imbalance that is what is called disease.
Steven Puckitt Nice...thank you, some useful info there. Not lying, but that's probably one of the best explanation I've ever received (made more sense than Google - simple and clear)
Glad it helped!
Thanks for the comment; it's always a balance for me about what to include and what to just sign-post as my videos always tend to run a bit long! However I'm glad @Steven Puckitt was able to give an excellent response down here in the comments!
Dr Hope's Sick Notes it's ok, it's your video in the end 😊❤ I'd still watch them, no matter how long they run for!
You need to put a dot on that i. Hahahah
Wait a second, if he was a real doctor you wouldn’t be able to read it at all...
I like how frank you are, doing the test truthfully even though you could've cheated and googled it in between questions and nobody would be the wiser. Nothing more reassuring than having an honest doctor.
I'm also a doctor and got the same result.
I feel like someone just googled random medical facts and slapped it all together into this quiz.
Just to add something:
The chemical name for Asprin is "Acetylsalicylic acid"
Acethyl is a chemical ester, and the other component - salicylic acid - is derived from the latin word "salix", which means willow.
Isn't it spelled "acetyl-"? After all it comes from "acetic acid" moiety, not "acethic acid".
@@bagniacz3264 indeed, that was a mistake by me.
4:15 "blood pressure's come down... other things have uh... come up" xD
I don’t know why, but “Greek Chap” made me laugh.
"How was the test?"
"Well my blood pressure came down, but something else went up..."
i'm still a highschooler but the way you explain everything is very nice that i easily understand everything to the details
This guy would make a phenomenal father
The Hungarian Ignác Semmelweis was the first doctor, who advocated the importance of doctors disinfecting their hands before treating the mothers since the 1840s - but with little effect, until later Pastur's researches proved him right. Now he is called the Saviour of Mothers, and the best medical university in Hungary is named after him. 😄 (I'm Hungarian too 😆)
Trust me, I'm a doctor; I've watched all fifteen seasons of ER. I know what I'm doing.
Did you just call your skeleton Nina? You named the skeleton? 😅
Yep that's her name. Named after my aunt who bought it for me. She's thrilled I've named a male skeleton after her
It made me laugh that we were looking at Nina's knee...
I know a guy who keeps a skull on his shelf, as a memento mori. Calls it McArthur.
Pfft you gotta name your skeleton, mine is called Bones
After all.....all humans are simply some skeletons with some fleshy bits and we all have names...
Medic marvel as a third year medical student. Wish this would count toward my degree!
Liz Rochester smae brah...2 year here
3:34 and all the linguists wept bitter tears seeing a future where puns are taken as etymological evidence
Love your channel so much! I'm studying to be a doctor, and your take on explaining things in an easier to understand way is so inspiring. I always learn something in your videos. Please keep making more! :D
I actually did REALLY well! Only missed one. Think I'll go take the medical board exam.
Awkward Beauty by Aly 😂😂😂 I love your spirit
Sunday Rain Why thank you!
Dr Aly Sick Notes coming soon!
Dr Hope's Sick Notes Nah. My day job pays a LOT more than a resident's salary. I tried poverty during college. Didn't particularly care for it.
Dr Hope's Sick Notes I'm not averse to marrying a Dr, though. Have passport, will travel. ;-)
Hey! I love your new background, you getting better on stage and scenarios... keep it up...
I love how enthusiastic he is about what he's talking about
Doctors I meet:
CZcamsr doctors: looks like models
It’s really refreshing to come across a non-genetics-specialist healthcare professional who understands the mechanisms and genetic basis of heritable conditions and can explain it well. I work in the clinical genetics department and so many of our patients are told incorrect information before they come to us, purely because their HCPs involved don’t understand/cannot explain the basics of more “common” genetic conditions, such as CF, haemochromatosis and thalassemia. It’s good to see a shift in the younger HCPs understanding and explaining this better to patients.
You never cease to entertain Ed and thank you for the quiz! I certainly learnt a little!
Be sure and keep the videos coming!
Always glad to find a doctor who admits what he/she doesn't know. They usually turn out to be the smarter ones. Subscribed.
This channel is one of those little things in life that makes it worth living and I honestly love it so super much.
One reason I love your videos - as someone who's a general idiot and especially outside of his fields which are nowhere near medicine - is that you always take the time to explain concepts as if it's to a first-time viewer. Can't count how many times I've heard you explain what red blood cells do, but it's always as appreciated every time!
Also, can't believe it never occurred to me that it's not you playing the outro until reading to the end of the description. What with that Les Paul and amp (Fender?) I'd have easily taken you for a heck of a musician!
What a brilliant sign in the background! Keep it up, Dr. Hope. Love the videos.
I love your videos man.
You've become one of my favorite channels here on CZcams.
I also really like the on-screen breakdown of medical terms, I like learning while being entertained, keep it up.
be a bit of a waster chopping down a tree to make asprin as it was originally derived from willow bark
Wood has many uses, so it's not like it's going to waste. Also, if I'm not mistaken you can harvest some bark without killing the tree.
Loving this new room!! Omg. That sign!
Willow tree I always thought was the same as Aspen trees so I picked willow because of ASPirin, then google said "aspen are members of the willow family of trees"
yay! 1 win for logic
I had 3 surgeries(4 if you count thailand) to my knees, but still failed the patella question
"4 if you count Thailand" worry's me
I really enjoyed the concept of this video! I hope to see more like it!
My goodness!! I’m learning more when watching you than my Chemistry teacher!! Please continue creating more educational videos!!
As someone who has cystic fibrosis, you are spot on in describing how the disease is. Love the videos! Hope you have a good day/ month and year!
So glad to have stumbled across this channel, I've watched so many American doctors and it's so good to finally find one from the UK to have more of an insight into the job of a doctor and what the future could hold. Would you consider making videos about the application process and interviews etc because there's thousands of us who have applied and it would be nice to see your take on the process :)
Igh love your vibe. All your vids are dope. Super informative and entertaining and funny. Love it
Your channel is so educational man, great work!
Thank you very much dr. Hope. I love your videos, they are both entertaining and educational. A wonderful combination.
I love how you explain things! Im taking my Kinesiology degree and I answered all these questions along with you. I did ok.
I love this channel. Thank you brother.
I got most of it right! Btw, love the new editing style and your channel logo! ❤️
Picking the longest answer is how I basically answer any questions on liver storage disease lol
"Criggler-Najjar? I'm betting it's this one."
That is, until I actually learnt about storage diseases properly.
Where's the patella?
*slowlyy stood up and detached the skeleton's leg*
Me: Same dude
Wow just wow! I have always been interested in medicine and these videos are so well done!
Please keep up the great work to an extend where you dont overwork too much of course :)
"Hopefully you find this video a LITTLE educational -- though that might be pushing it..."
Me after watching this: "....i'm ready to be a doctor now."
I honestly love your videos so much. You're such a friendly, genuine and sweet person. I just want to be your friend! ♥️🌹
Willow! I have known that since I was a kid. Scientists would study old tribal medicine. They would use various plants and by studying these scientists learned about different medications.
I love your way of explaining things
I did better than I expected to. Mostly lucky guesses, though. I thought the Asprin question was common knowledge, but I guess it's not. Maybe I assumed it was just because my great-grandmother taught me about willow tea as a way to treat headaches when I was just a youngster.
Entertaining and educational as always. Well done sir.
i LOVE this setup
LOL, here is my score after taking the test.
*Medical Marvel!
Who needs a doc around when you’re in town? We can tell that you can keep up with any conversation that is littered with medical jargon, and you can probably diagnose patients faster than doctors. Well, maybe....*
Thanks for your informative, easy to understand and entertaining videos Dr. Hope. New subscriber here and I think the reason I scored so well on the test was because medical stuff like this is right up my alley. I like doing research into various illnesses and injuries along with drugs and how they work in the body. My friends routinely come to me to explain what their doctor said in a "dumbed down way"
I learn so much more watching these videos than I ever did in school. XD
Great Job, Dr Hope! Thank You~
Me blurting out "Willow Bark!" at the aspirin question would make my homeopathic-practicing mother so proud.
I could listen to you all day
I love your neon sign!
Spidergirl79 he made it himself!
Love the new mic and background scene. Lighting too. And as always content is impeccable
Am I the only one who read "Sucknotes" at first on the neon sign😅😂
LikeLisa yeah he said in the move in video that he needs to put a dot above the i
Informative and entertaining, I love this channel!
What we learned is to always pick the longest answer. I hadn't heard that one yet, I'm gonna use that tomorrow.
I got a couple that you missed, but the one I remember is the aspirin one. I knew that came from willow trees thanks to reading the prehistorical series of books called the "Earth's Children" series, which started with 'Clan of the Cave Bear', where a willow bark decoction (aka tea, right up a Brit's alley) was often used for headaches and other mild pain relief.
As a nursing student in Ireland (starting third year) I find your channel extremely informative, interesting and entertaining. I would love if you could do a video regarding pharmacology quizzes (similar to this one, given your explanation on the different B vitamins and your mathematics regarding sodium intake via IV fluids). Hoping to move to the UK when I'm qualified, maybe we'll work together! lol Keep up the great work!
13:55 - Q13: Option 1 is MI (myocardial infarction), Option 2 is arrhythmia, Option 3 is bradycardia, and option 4 is CHF (congestive heart failure). The two types of heart failure - heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) - are based on whether the ability of the left ventricle to contract is affected, or the heart's ability to relax.
This was very interesting to watch. I appreciate all the extra information and explanations you provided. I used to suck at biology in highschool, but I'm currently on my way to a human sciences, so it was cool to see what I knew and also get to learn some new things.
I was starting to do the phobia one by wordbuilding. Acrophobia, acro height, phobia fear. Pyrophobia, pyro fire. Then I'd be stuck as a 50:50 with the other two.
Also, when you mentioned the kissing not coming from parents, my mind went straight to Norfolk and the IoW.
Yeh I actually talked about breaking it down like this, but thought the video was long enough!
I did the pyro as well. Then when I got to acro.... I was thinking.... a fear of somersaults? hahahahaha
Very good this video,please more more more!You are awesome and way you describe and talk about medicine is wow,speechless,amazing.
Thanks for talking a bit about Cystic Fibrosis, I have it and it's nice to see a little awareness being made
Sanjay Gupta was never actually the Surgeon General of the United States. He was offered the position, and was a White House Fellow, but never actually held the position.
I think 'in the wild' refers to the fact that smallpox still exists in labs.
A charming and fun vid. Well done!
I learnt aspirin was extracted from willow bark when I was a child. In Romanian, we call it "acid acetilsalicilic" and a willow-tree is a "salcie". It is easier to remember that way: "salicilic" - "salcie".
your videos are always so educational i love them 💖
I like his content its very educational and fun to watch!
Very entertaining and very educational. Thank you.
I definitely learned something new! Regarding the smallpox vials, there are indeed a few vials stored at NIH's Bethesda campus. I live down the street from the campus and there was a BIG DEAL scare a few years ago when NIH employees found two vials of viable smallpox virus in an unused storage room (there were six vials, but only two were still alive), just sitting around completely forgotten. The campus is smack-dab in the middle of a large suburban community, so the entire town was pretty angry at NIH for a good long while.
Love your videos!!!
more than 'mildly' entertaining......it was quite fun to take the quiz with him
It is entertaining, Doc. Keep on posting I love knowing more about biology 😊😊
I do not know why, but everytime I watch one of your videos, I find myself smiling. Is it just me? Or is this guy one of the happiest people you have ever seen. We should all be so lucky.
I love the new neon sign ! nice addition
Always great content! Also, I cheked your music over at SoundCloud, pretty good!!
i just realized that this guy wheres the same shirt in every video.
