Doctor Mom zeigt auf wunderbar kreative Art und Weise, wie Eltern ihre Jobs den Kleinsten näher bringen können. Als The Breakfasteur teilt sie Videos, wie sie ihrem jungen Sohn (je nach Video zwischen drei und fünf Jahre alt) anhand von Knet-Modellen zeigt, wie Operationen ablaufen. Die „Playdough Surgery“ ist eine schöne Idee, bei der wir Zusehenden selbst so einiges lernen können!
„Our next ‘patient’ came in with nausea and right lower belly pain, and was found to have an enlarged appendix. While most are removed via laparoscopic surgery, we chose an open approach, allowing a bit of practice with ligation and tying knots 🪢 (turns out he has a novel but working technique!).“
„We watched a CABG on @youtube by cardiothoracic surgeon Dr. Luis Dibos from @medstarhealth. I recommend it – he is a great teacher and a gifted surgeon! My 3-year old couldn’t wait to crack a chest with his ’sternal saw‘. Our playdough heart wasn’t exactly beating when we got to it, but things worked out with the help of internal defibrillators (two spoons)⚡️“
„One of the truly astounding technological devices of our generation is the cochlear implant. This incredible device – in the hands of a skillful surgeon and a team of audiologists, speech/language therapists, and social workers – can provide patients with inner ear deafness access to sound.“
„‚We haven’t done a surgery in a long time now, mommy….‘ – the most gentle plea by my little guy, who has been asking daily since our last case. But when he asked if our insides ever come outside (very Halloween-appropriate 🧟♂️), I knew it was time to do a hernia. I prototyped low-tech hernia models all week, and finally came up with something to simulate a cough test (and manual reduction), which you’ll see had us (me) giggling! 😆 Medical students: is this a direct or indirect hernia?“
