Doctor Reacts To Nickelodeon Medical Scenes
Vložit
- čas přidán 4. 05. 2021
- I was a BIG Nickelodeon kid in the 90s. I loved the cartoons like Doug, Rugrats, Hey Arnold!, so today I say down to look back through my favorite childhood shows to see what kind of medical information there was, and check in to see if things were accurate. What about when Otto broke his leg in Rocket Power? Or when Rocko had appendicitis during Rocko’s Modern Life? I even took a look at more modern shows like The Loud House and Avatar The Last Airbender to see what Nicktoons are up to these days. I couldn’t believe the stuff Jimmy Neutron got up to inside Carl’s head or poor Cosmo’s broken Fagilgli Gland in The Fairly Oddparents. What shows or scenes did I miss? Let me know down below!

Fun fact: the creator of spongebob wasn't just an animator. He was a marine biologist so he actually used that knowledge to make the characters more realistic to their real life counterparts.
Those of us who grew up watching SpongeBob will never get over the fact that their creator passed away.

Teacher not letting you go to the bathroom is messed up, especially when you're that young.
Some kids ask to go to the bathroom just to go play around
@@lilcupc4k3s yeah but most of them have to actually go
@@lilcupc4k3s yeah,so students should be expected to hold it in all day,and only use it when they get home
@@lilcupc4k3s I think it would be better for the kid to mess around than to have an accident in class. Think of how Dr. Mike was when he told the story, no one knew he had an accident and he was still mortified, imagine the bullying the kids that have accidents would go through.
@@literallythefloor5431 I know. But when you have multiple students asking multiple times to go just to play, at some point you tell them to wait or hold it. Plus, for teachers, they might be going over something important or confusing that the student really needs to hear🤷♀️
When I worked at a school, we were told not to let our students go to the bathroom after seeing that some students were having a little art project going on in there. We were told to take group bathroom breaks to monitor them🤷♀️
The reflective disk you're referring to is called a head mirror. It is a medical instrument that was commonly used by doctors in the past, especially during the early to mid-20th century. The head mirror consists of a concave mirror, typically attached to a headband, which can be positioned in front of the doctor's eye.
The purpose of the head mirror is to direct a source of light, such as a lamp, onto the patient's body. The mirror reflects the light onto the area of interest, illuminating it for examination. The doctor can adjust the angle of the mirror to focus the light precisely where it's needed, providing better visibility during examinations or procedures.
The head mirror is not commonly used in modern medical practice today. Advances in technology, such as handheld lights and headlamps with built-in lights, have made it more convenient and efficient for doctors to illuminate their workspace. However, the image of doctors wearing head mirrors has persisted in popular culture, including cartoons, as a recognizable symbol of the medical profession.

I’m a medical assistant who has worked in ENT with an otorhinolaryngologist in his 70s who used that head mirror. It’s used along with a lamp attached to the exam chair that reflects light into a small spot to examine the ears, nose, and throat. He was so old school and just overall a funny guy, I miss him already and our ENT clinic just closed today 😭 He once said “ENT is like sex, if you’re not having fun, you’re not doing it right” 🤣
I can relate to how quickly illness can spread in a small environment. I used to work at a summer camp and one of my coworkers got sick and then my roommate got it and I got it and it and it spread very quickly through the whole camp. They called in a doctor to see everyone because it was so bad.
Last xmas me, husband, his brother & parents got Covid. It started with my father-in-law, next day it was husband, then his brother, then me. Exactly one day apart, we dropped like flies. Ive heard of cruises, where stomach virus goes thru the ship, that would be hell..
The thing on Patrick’s head is a concave mirror with a hole in the middle. The doctor lowers it over his eye and looks through the hole and the concave shape of the mirror focuses light at the spot he’s looking at. Nowadays you have flashlights lol
Thank you! 😁🙌
Yep; it was called a head mirror.
They mostly used it in ENT :D
Thank you 😊
Thank youuujj
Should be renamed to 13 minutes and 45 seconds of Dr. Mike yelling at head mirrors for existing
*13 minutes 45 seconds
Also true
So what is a Head Mirror or more accurately - is it for the patient to see what the doctor is seeing, because the doctor can't see the head mirror.
Head mirrors became obsolete after pen lights on land but pen lights doesn't lasts long in the sea hence the head mirrors LOL
@@minatyayah8768 Thank you for that.
@@sidrat2009 the original purpose was before there were head lamps, they had a light pointed at the mirrors
As an Indian medical student, I'd like to tell you, sir, that mirror thingy is called "head mirror". It's used along with the Bull's eye lamp in routine external auditory canal inspection in the ENT OPs here. But nowadays most of the ENT doctors are slowly starting to use otoscopes instead of the tedious ear pulling and adjusting required to visualise the canal as well as the tympanic membrane using head mirrors.

The head thing is a head mirror and was used to look through when examining a patient's ears, nose and throat in the days before other means of lighting the interior of orifices were developed. The concave mirror allows light to be focused into a small, bright spot which was perfect for seeing into ears and nostrils and such (while looking through the hole in the middle)
Fun Fact: That Hey Arnold episode was written so Gerald’s voice actor could continue the role once his voice started deepening due to puberty (and the production staff couldn’t find a suitable replacement for him).

What happened?
The circular silver thing that doctors used to wear over 20 years ago was called a head mirror. Head mirrors are diagnostic devices that reflect light into a patient's eyes, nose, mouth, and ears to help with exams. They can also be used during surgery to see inside a patient.
To use a head mirror, a doctor swings it down over one eye and peers through the center hole. A lamp is positioned behind the patient, and the mirror reflects and focuses that light on the doctor's eye. Head mirrors are mostly used for examining the ear, nose, and throat.
Basically we didn't have super high efficiency LED lights back in the day.
Patrick: "The doctor's office is a horrible, horrible place!"
Doctor Mike: "And i took that personally."
These cartoons are often more accurate than actual medical dramas, even though they're often doing parodies
Yes! I just wrote "When cartoons produce a better quality conversation about health and well being than adult shows of the medical genre - there's a problem." in a separate comment.
Lookin at you Attaway General
Not necessarily. Have you watched greys anatomy or the good doctor?
They're accurate because you have to know how it would work played straight before you can parody it.
I love these redesigns! Absolutely gorgeous.
When used properly, the head mirror thus provides excellent shadow-free illumination. Because they were once in common use, notably by general practitioners and endocrinologists, head mirrors are often a stereotypical part of a physician's uniform by costumers and prop men e.g. in comic routines. that is what its for
The doctor disc is called a Head Mirror. From the days where light sources weren't handheld, it's used to reflect a light source onto the patient; the lamp is next to or behind a patient, reflecting of the doctor's head mirror and onto the patient.
THANK YOU. Literally the only reason I went through the comments here was to find one explaining what that thing is😂
So what's the hole for?
@@tommarsdon5644 because when used it is moved to a position in front of doctors eye, so the hole is for doctor to see through it. Look at the picture on the Wikipedia.
@@tommarsdon5644 it basically perfect flashlight because when you look through the hole, the light is shining exactly where you look

@@mygoditsfullofstars8599 A head mirror is mostly used for examination of the ear, nose & throat. It comprises a circular concave mirror, with a small hole in the middle, and is attached to a head band. The mirror is worn over the physician's eye of choice, with the concave mirror surface facing outwards and the hole directly over the physician's eye, providing illumination like a ring light.
In use, the patient sits and faces the physician. A bright lamp is positioned adjacent to the patient's head, pointing toward the physician's face and hence towards the head mirror. The light from the lamp reflects off the mirror, along the line of sight of the user, with the light being somewhat concentrated by the curvature of the mirror. When used properly, the head mirror thus provides excellent shadow-free illumination.
TLDR: it reflects light and the doctor looks through the hole

Regarding the circular mirror worn on head, the disc is known as a head mirror, and it helps otolaryngologists (ear, nose, and throat doctors) visualize various body cavities of interest. To use the device, the medical professional swings the mirror down over one eye, peering through the center hole.They are rarely seen outside of the ENT setting, having been largely replaced by pen lights among general practitioners. They are still used by some otolaryngologists, particularly for examinations and procedures involving the oral cavity, although many are switching to fiber optic headlights. Yes, I googled it.
I love these videos so much 😂 im literally laughing outloud. so educational and entertaining, great job Dr. Mike - like always lol

Nice CF reference! Thank you for the recognition!
The thing that Patrick was wearing on his head that they used to wear back in the day was actually used the cover the doctors hair so blood doesn’t get into the hair or any messes in general because back then they didn’t have Dr. hats that was around 1800s-1904 and then it was until the year 1910 that they started wearing doctor hats, so that’s what it is
"head mirror." It was used in examinations of the ear, throat, and other, ah, body cavities. To use, you swung the head mirror down so that you could look through the hole in the middle with one eye. Then you positioned a light source so that it shone on the mirror’s parabolic surface. By moving your head just so, you could reflect the light rays down the patient’s throat or whatever, the better to illuminate items of interest without obstructing the view.
I was looking so desperate for this comment
You did a way better explanation than I ever could
Yes it is pretty obsolete nowadays but it works. I recommend doctor Mike that he should start looking into the history of his profession more. It is so interesting to learn about history.
I was just reeducated by you think you. 👍
So, basically a head lamp equivalent from the times when batteries of reasonable size and capacity and light sources of reasonable size and power consumption didnt exist
6:24 That headband is a mirror that doctors used to have to use before tiny flashlights existed. They were used to reflect office lights or sunlight onto the patients to see what they (the doctors) were doing.
To be more specific. The Dr. Would look through the tiny hole in the middle to see inside a patients mouth.

Fun fact: The Loud House episode you watched, aka One Flu Over the Loud House, was/is banned almost everywhere in the globe because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
That applies with its sister episode, The Price of Admission. But that's because it's paired with One Flu Over the Loud House.
Okay but teachers not letting small children go to the bathroom really baffles me. I remember peeing in class because a teacher wouldn’t let me go to the bathroom and at the time, it was the most embarrassing thing I could ever think of. It’s a horrible thing for a child to go through. Just let em go.
And it's unhealthy too, not to go, especially as a kid!
it's especially bad when teachers are like "You should've gone in recess!" to a first grader. Like, good sir, that kid is six, it's just barely not a toddler anymore. Six year olds have the bladder control of a seagull with diarrhea.
One time when I was in elementary school, I asked to go to the bathroom cuz I needed to throw up. Teacher wouldn't let me go, so I threw up on the desk. Then they made me clean it up. Teachers are evil.
yeah same. in kindergarten they wouldn't let me use the bathroom during gym so i refused to do anything because i was going to explode. eventually when we where leaving i couldn't hold it in anymore and peed on myself. my mom was furious and after that they started to let us go.
This forceful restrainment of kids when they need to pee caused me to suffer from severe Urinal Tract Infection when I was in first grade. We also were supposed to keep our water bottles outside the class and only allowed to drink during recess. This added to my infection.
i like the fact that "doctor" sponge Bob used a sterile chicken, than discarded the rest because it was no longer sterile.
also, the head reflector was used before small electric lights were commonplace in order to reflect the main rooms light so the doctor could examine the inside of the ear, nose or throat

I’ve always compared radiologists to being like a bartender, imagine every time a person ordered a drink you had to drink too. A bartender would die before their shift ended, same goes for X-rays
That is the analogy that got it through to me, a layman, why radiologists always leave the room. That’s a full pitcher of NOPE!
I used a similar analysis for why Chemo radiation makes people sick, but dental xrays don't. I said it is like drinking a shot of Whiskey versus half the bottle.
It's actually a radiographer/radiological technician in the room with you!
Radiographers take the images and assess any complaints made by the patient. The information, scans, and tests are then sent to the radiologist, who is an MD and can diagnose the patient.
Radiologists are people who went through medical school and specialized in medical imaging. Techs are people who went to a medical program specifically teaching medical imaging.
Very nice analogy
As someone who’s studying in radiology, this is pretty accurate 😂
I relate to the sleeping in freezing weather. I love being cold and being wrapped up in my blankets, sometimes in a hoodie like Mike said. I even keep my window open most of the winter. Something about it is so relaxing and helps me sleep better
If you wanted to know what the disc thing is it was a early version of head mirrors.

13:16 lesson for teachers: when a kid asks if they can use the restroom, its not a maybe, they are giving you a heads up, once they ask again, they are basically saying "my bladder is at the maximum capacity and in 10-12 seconds I will have to release the urine contracted in my body as to not get urinary tract infections"
True! Though I substituted in a kindergarten classroom for a while and once one student asked, they all wanted to go. To avoid having a half dozen 5/6 year olds in the hallway unsupervised, I ended up just taking the whole class down the hall and making them all pee. We also all used the bathroom before recess and after lunch.
I don’t deny kids the bathroom, especially younger ones.
I had a home economics teacher make me wash dishes when I really had to pee. She absolutely refused to let me go, and I ended up so desperate I burst out the door past her and peed myself in the hallway. The school nurse ended up yelling at the teacher.
I also had a classmate (female, around 11 y/o at that time) who was the top student of the claas. She absolutely tried to hold her bladder during class but finally couldn't take it. As she got up from her seat and running towards the door after asking for permission, she peed herself in the middle of the class.
Ditto to that! I have a family history of bladder problems. My younger sister would get aggressive bladder infects if she tried to hold it in and My dad has a hyperactive bladder he takes medicine for now. Waiting wasn't/isn't an option for them. What's worse, my dad's KINDERGARTEN teacher made fun of him for how much he had to use the bathroom.
I remember a teacher wouldn't let me go to the bathroom and I got up, walked to the bathroom, and came back like nothing happened. I honestly thought I would get in trouble later, but nobody said anything to me.
Seriously, no respect for teachers that refuse to let kids go to the bathroom. Thankfully I didn't have an incident, but I did have a teacher that didn't let me go and my bladder ached for the rest of the day. I told my mom, she got mad and told me to still ask, be polite and all, but to never let myself go that far ever again; said my health was more important, and promised to back me up if I got in trouble for it. I don't recall ever having to test it.

To use the device, the medical professional swings the mirror down over one eye, peering through the center hole. A light source is then shone on the mirror’s concave surface, reflecting and illuminating the dark hole in question. Essentially, the cavity can be visualized without having the light source obstructing the doctor’s view.
I looked up the shiny disc thing. It's a head mirror, an otolaryngologist. will sometimes wear it where they can flip it down over one eye, where the hole in the disk goes over the pupil. Then they shine a light onto the concave surface of the mirror so that it's reflected into whatever dark cavity they need to see into.
At least that's what MentalFloss told me.

The mirror is worn over the physician's eye of choice, with the concave mirror surface facing outwards and the hole directly over the physician's eye, providing illumination like a ring light.
In use, the patient sits and faces the physician. A bright lamp is positioned adjacent to the patient's head, pointing toward the physician's face and hence towards the head mirror. The light from the lamp reflects off the mirror, along the line of sight of the user, with the light being somewhat concentrated by the curvature of the mirror. When used properly, the head mirror thus provides excellent shadow-free illumination.

Was probably phased out by the use of Otoscopes
@@joshduriden519 Not gonna lie, the doctor who cauterized some blood vessels in my nose in 1998 used a head mirror... Granted that was 23 years ago now, but even in 1998 they were already rarely used.
@@Clarinetboy82 Unrelated, but I was born in 98. I read your comment saw 1998, saw “that was 23 years ago”, and I’m now realizing just how old I am 🙃
RIIIGHT I knew I've seen that being used before in real life! I used to go to this old school ENT that had this head-mirror thing!
yeah I assumed it was widely used before electricity and batteries got big for looking down whatever hole you needed to
"Look, there's Carl's brain!"
"Where? I don't see it!"
I don't know why I laughed there but I--

That thing on the doctors heads is a head mirror which helps ENTs visualize various body cavities of interest
The circle thing on a doctor’s head is called a head mirror, and it was used for looking down nasal passageways such as the nose and throat
I still love how Doc McStuffins is practically the most accurate show he’s watched thus far 😂
I mean Chicago Med tho
@@fluffycorn_njst still waiting for him to review cells at work black
Yessss
I'm a minor I still watch doc McStuffins cus it's good lol-
( I'm over 10 tho )
are we just gonna ignore the fact that Carl said "I've got people inside me"
Nickelodeon we know what you're doing
Hold up
😳
The head things are called head mirrors. They swing the little hole over one of their (the doctors) eyes to see specific things (they’re only used specifically by ear nose and throat doctors)
So apparently the weird head scope thing is for ENT’s, it’s a head mirror, which helps them visualize the area they’re looking at (and is put over one eye) probably needs better explanation than from me 😅
Mike: “The energy center of the cell not the powerhouse of the cell.”
Me: THE ONE THING I REMEMBER... THE ONE THING I CAN RECALL AFTER YEARS IF SUFFERING... ISN’T EXACTLY RIGHT?!?!
I'm 35 you won't be using 99% of what you learned at school/university. For me it is "All People Seem To Need Dill Pickles" which is like a pneumonic for the 7 layer network thing for computers. I can tell you what each layer means but I have no understanding of how it works because it is not part of my job.
my thoughts exactly 😭
Years of academy training wasted
It's the same thing. In his first video of meme review he said "energy centre of the cell" and not "powerhouse of the cell" so it became a running joke on his channel
@@HarleyCringe ooh.. thank God..😄😄 i almost thought i was wrong for years..
In regards to the old timey head mirror:
The mirror is worn over the physician's eye of choice, with the concave mirror surface facing outwards and the hole directly over the physician's eye, providing illumination like a ring light. ... When used properly, the head mirror thus provides excellent shadow-free illumination.

Came to post this! Thanks!
exactly, thank you. I was about to comment this from wiki too
I looked it up to ! haha I needed to know just because he pointed it out so often during the video ! hahaha
Glad you gave the credits
That’s what I thought it was
head mirror
The disc is known as a head mirror, and it helps otolaryngologists (ENTs, or ear, nose, and throat doctors) visualize various body cavities of interest. To use the device, the medical professional swings the mirror down over one eye, peering through the center hole.

The “no longer alkaline” eye twitch really got me I laughed for a little too long
"NO IT'S NOT WE HAVE FUN THERE!!"
I've never seen doctor mike so offended 🤣
And his video editor/meme Lord did a good job calling it out
I had the pause the video just to laugh at how defensive he became 😭
6:34 It's a head mirror which was used by otorhinolaryngologists (and GPs) in the past to better inspect the ears, throat and nose in particular.
We actually got our hands on one once in med school and even learnt how to use it, but really it's outdated and has been for a long time. Because, you know, we got better devices like flashlights or otoscopes.
The thing that Patrick was wearing 6:42 is a head mirror is mostly used for examination of the ear nose and throat. It comprises a circular concave mirror, with a small hole in the middle, and is attached to a head band.
I love that as soon as Patrick said the doctor's office was horrible, Dr. Mike was like "no it's not!" but then with every reason Patrick gave, he was just like "oh, yeah that's true..." 😂😂😂
Yes! Agreed!
the thing on their head is actually a solar panel for extra energi doing thoes long hours
Da truth.
189 IQ answer! As expected by Lord Deji!
Tf dude no that makes no sense
Energy lol
@@jaxonall255 correcting a dislexic dane is a pointless venture, but hell if it makes you feel better go for it.
I read that the weird headband that doctors used to ware was for ENTs to help them see into the body cavity by pulling the head mirror down over the eye.
13:31 😂 Don't worry Dr. Mike! It happens to the best of us😅 I remember having some tonsil problem in elementary school and it kept making me throw up and feel like i'm choking, and I was at my desk when this random boy passing out papers and I threw up water in front of him and literally no one,not even the kid, seemed to notice! Thank goodness it dried up quickly😅
omg that sounds awful! I'm glad that's all in the past and you're okay now ❤❤
