Do no harm: Some hospitals let a preventable infection kill their patients 

Ikr what a disgusting institution morally and literally, they seemed like they didnt care about the fact that a child died

I know right I think they should treat the death of the children in their care as the death of their very own child sure it will never be like losing your own kid but you should pretend like it is you should want to fix the problem as if it was what took away your child but these people treated that little girl as if she was some broken toy that they couldn’t fix they treated her like her death was simply sad but not tragic and that is absolutely disgusting to me and whoever the hell made that letter should be ashamed they even typed and sent that without even including the words this was a tragedy

Like seriously. Dissatisfied experience is something like getting a over cooked steak. Not when a child dies. It’s basically downplaying the horrible and sad death of a beautiful child. It’s disgusting...

@AppleScotch Pie i know,right?Like,that was a child.A CHILD!!!!And they let her die!And they should have at least try to do something about it.

You have to remember that doctors see death on a daily basis and that they might save 1000 people and 1 will die it’s a fact of life you have to get over

BUT MUH DEFAMATION

When your about to die you can’t really say, ‘no take me to the other hospital.’

Tom Burger I don’t think that’s the point of this video but to bring an issue to light and hopefully hospitals will be forced to change their policies to prevent these “preventable” issues.

He's talking about someone who lives near the infectious hospital.. like they have no choice to go there sort of and I'm sure lots have no idea of it's reputation and it's so damn sad

Best hospital in America? A bunch of moms around you applying stuff with no experience.

I would not be shocked if they did not even write that letter. It is a computer generated TEMPLATE response previously written before they probably opened the hospital. If we looked at everyone who gets that letter, I am sure there is no difference word by word.

exactly Human trash

It’s also sad that in the US medical and educational fields are businesses.

Musical_Me I mean I am sure that this can’t just be blamed on the US healthcare system. This is a problem with the hospital itself, it is easy to point the finger at the United States because the video was made in the US but it would definitely be easy to find an example in any country

real apologies would be more like "I'm sorry I did this" than "I'm sorry you got upset" because it was YOUR fault, not the person you're apologizing to.

Did you consider suing them?

@@MrCamille9999 she wanted to but was already getting sued and in some legal trouble because of the crash so she decided to let it go, it was too much

@@dootdoot94xo44 why would you ever say something like that. That's extremely inconsiderate!

Sphinx Money suing doesn’t have to just be because of one parties fault entirely. A lot of insurance companies will try to sue the party who’s driving so that they don’t have to pay for all of the damage costs. And so in that case karma doesn’t really pan out. And to be fair, she already was in a induced coma, on top of that having dried out corneas doesn’t really sound like karma, it’s sounds like torture.

Sphinx Money after saying that, karma will come straight back to you.

Or the kid was immunocompromised.

not going to that hospital!

The first infection would have had me doing my own investigation.

After 4 Infections they would of known something was going down, but i guess they thought she was just slightly 'Dissatisfied" with her outcome

Or maybe the child was immunodeficient, which was why she needed an IV.

I wish more nurses were like you

It has nothing to do with nurses and everything to do with your lack of funding healthcare in America. Those nurses are understaffed and overworked. That leads to death. Think about those nurses and that dead child next time you're voting.

@@seanwhalen5738 There is some level of incompetence of nurses from my experiences working there many years ago. Do not know if it is better today.

I had a Port A Catheter and it was used for my chemo, do you know if it is a reasonable replacement for a central line or if they are for different purposes? I'm just curious.

Bobby, do you think that Central line infections are an exceptional circumstance? Like, do you think the same outcomes could be obtained with treating pressure damage in a similar way? Or are central line infections special because you can, actually, control them. I work in a medical receiving unit, and whilst obviously we aim for best practice at all times, it's a busy high turnover unit. We are always always understaffed, I have legit never seen us fully staffed. And yknow, our patients are human. So when I think of what my version of preventing central line infections would be, I think of preventing new pressure damage, or preventing venous catheter line infections. But I can't think how we would actually physically be able to do this without more staff to be able to turn patients two hourly when they need it. Or nurses to take their time giving IV meds or fluids, to maintain aseptic technique every time a patient wants to take their jumper off. And this isn't even considering the vast majority of the time that patients actively make decisions against their best interest. Yknow, refusing turns or personal care. Or dipping their venflons in yoghurt, or whatever.

+Ninjamaag I will continue to write this to people yes I feel sorry that people lose things but science is the killing of harmless or harmful people, organisms, or items "For the people who are still alive" yah references

Daniel Broderick Umm actually there was no "ape" speech, and when did I say vaccines where bad that was never brought up even once. As for the medication I wouldn't be dead because i'm not a dumb ass who goes to strange countries and doesn't think twice I also have never broken a bone nor have I ever been to the hospital except for visiting and to see if I have anything, which I haven't. Any medication i've taken was for ADD and Insomnia which I stopped shortly after my grades plumeted, so actually I'd be just fine. So instead of thinking your right go and check up on some facts then come back and try to prove me wrong. PS after re reading your comment I need to add this note I have never been vaccinated in my life other than for school regulations and other things that require them

+Tate Amstutz The school requires vaccines for a reason. You probably believe that medicine is bullshit since "I haven't died yet". No, you haven't died yet because of those school vaccines. And because of this thing called herd immunity. Basically, herd immunity is when over 90% of the population is vaccinated, which keeps the virus from surviving long enough to kill you. Now, if I misinterpreted your statement, maybe you should learn proper sentence structure. Also, I'd like to see your sources that prove vaccines are bullshit. And while you're at it, maybe you should mention your highest level of education. I'm sure you've been taking lots of college level biology courses.

+Tate Amstutz Also, ADD/ADHD are amongst the most frequently misdiagnosed mental illnesses. It's a shame your faith in science was shattered by your experience with medicine. What probably happened is you had trouble focusing on your schoolwork, and you brought yourself to the doctor, maybe over exaggerated your symptoms, and he wrote you a script for some meds. ADD meds are just prescription amphetamines, which tend to cause sleeplessness. Then you got a prescription for the "insomnia", and you had a vicious cycle of conflicting meds making you feel like general shit.

They deserve to be sued if not for the money for the family and the justice then for teaching the staff a lesson that they can't just brush things like that under the rug by saying "sorry you were dissatisfied with your experience" it's absolutely unacceptable.

Marquis de Lafayette wow.

Marquis de Lafayette A spine surgery is always risky, that's understandable. But leaving a whole ( the knife I'm guessing you're referring to a scalpel ) scalpel in a patient is un acceptable

wow. same here, VA hospital left a sponge in my dad. he died of an infection due to it. I know doctors make mistakes just like the rest of us. but damn he could be alive right now.

That's really sad because it's completely unacceptable and avoidable. I have stood in surgeries and LOTS of items are used BUT every item used is documented (usually by a nurse) to insure that nothing gets left in the patient. The team as a whole didn't do its job.

Where did that happen so I can make sure I don't go there? What they did is completely unacceptable.

Money is not gonna bring the kid back. And taking money from the hospital won't help other patients either.

+BILLder BURRg Money is a coping mechanism, and without the threat of action, then hospitals have no reason to improve. If a hospital lets it's patients die, it shouldn't be open.

+BILLder BURRg No. of course they don't. That's why it's important for victims of malpractice to pursue the hospital for as much as they can get. The last thing they want is someone hurting their profits.

Your comment shows how distorted this video was. This was not some normal child, but rather one with a serious disease. That is why she needed constant IV therapy. That child was not going to live a long life, no matter what. More likely, if it hadn't been for the intervention of that hospital, the child would have died a six months of age. Notice they didn't say what the disease was, or why the child needed so many central lines. That would have ruined their biased report.

+Christian Libertarian you seem to misunderstand the message of this video. it's not about the kid was going to die anyway soon or later. it's about the hospital's attitude. you should go apply to the Stanford hospital, they might hire you, as you seem to share their views on how to treat people.

eli the egg it could’ve also been the company producing the products the hospital used too. But hand hygiene is the number one cause of hospital acquired infections and many don’t follow it.

Well, nosocomial infections happen, but not that often. Every medical contract has inspanning verbintenis, which means the contract binds the doctor and staffs to do their best to treat the patient. So if something preventable like nosocomial infections that happens too often occurs, the hospital can be sued for breach of contract.

What about a hospital spreading an antibiotic resistant infection to a disturbingly high number of patients?? I’ve had multiple family members go to this hospital for a variety or issues, almost every time he staff there nearly kills someone, then every person I have known to go in that hospital leaves with an antibiotic resistant infection hat they say they can’t help with and that it’s just a risk of going to any hospital......but I have never heard of a single person picking this random infection up from any other hospital in any other city.....it seems to just be common at this one terrible hospital. They also nearly killed my uncle last week. Tried to unplug him when he was on a machine for his breathing for only a single day. My family had to plead with the idiotic nurses, then the next day he was fine and sitting walking and talking again. He would have been dead had my family not stopped the nurses. Unfortunately “do no harm” depends on what they consider to be harm, just like the video says, how a hospital views something completely changes what happens to their patients. I am unfortunately all too aware of how the ONLY hospital in my city is a cesspool for various infections and would rather risk my life going to any other hospital in any other city than risk my life going to the one just blocks away.

eli the egg I’ve had lines for 6 years and I haven’t had an infection once, or even an infection scare. I never even had a pain issue.

Stanford sucks. Accuse them

You do understand that competition is a good troubleshooting tool for most businesses but when it comes to healthcare patients can't afford to allow problems like this to happen when their health is on the line, this is in fact the perfect example of how healthcare being run like businesses is a problem. Most doctors are more interested in Jewing their clients out of their money then actually careing fore the wellbeing of the person. And if you can't prove the hospital f*ked up or have an army of lawyers to take your case then you (as a client) are at the mercy of the "attidudes" of the doctors

Jesse Crossman I'm pretty someone's ability to produce melanin has very little to do with performance. American doctors are just cogs in the corporate machine more interested in separating patients from their money than actually taking care of them, that is why the system is sh*t. Like an overpriced iPhone, unnecessarily pay more for mediocre quality & care. I agree there are limits to what even medical professionals can possibly know, however even the stupidest doctor would know the silliness of comparing performance with genetics (which makes no sense).

Wow, I'm surprised someone so enlightened and understanding as you would use the highly offensive term "Jewing". I guess your tolerance only extends to some groups and not others. What a hypocritical piece of shit you are.

what is point are you trying to get thorugh? Why is it wrong to show appreciation for the nurses they save lives, pretty muhc the definiton of a hero.

Yes but there is a reason to why they pursued those careers and it's more than just money since they don't earn that much and their work schedule is terrible. If you just want money then there are thousands of better professions that are more comfortable than being a nurse.

But doesn't it make them more of a hero that everyone can do it, but they are the ones doing it? Also the only reason why life rescuers say things like it's just a job is because they're trying to be humble and don't want people to critize them because they get paid rescuing people.

You contradict yourself there.

no clue what the other guy's taking about. instead, i feel you; thanks for sharing!

As someone who works in a hospital near Stanford and having worked in Sacramento/Roseville area as an EMT, I have seen many nurses and other hospital personnel coming in/out of a room without sanitizing their hands. A big issue with hand sanitation is with C-diff precautions. Anyone who walks out of a C-diff room must wash their hands with soap and water even if they made no contact with the patient while inside the room. Just last night, while in such a room, a nurse tried to leave without washing her hands. I told her she must and she turned to me and said, "oh, be quiet." That same night another nurse left the room without washing his hands because he wanted to use the sink down the hall. So he walked down a clean hall with C-diff infected hands and contaminated the common area.

That's why, hospitals kinda suck. If you go to a independent medical office, you get a lot more care along with happier professionals.

I cannot express how disturbing it is to hear about healthcare professionals not washing their hands, especially after leaving infectious rooms. As a patient once with C-diff, I can relate and understand the severity of this. C-diff is very contagious and when I had it after I got my appendix removed they isolated me from other patients. Doctor and nurses had to gown up before they entered my room and wash their hands before they left, so they wouldn’t spread it to other patients. Even when I was discharged I was asked to take bleach wipes home to disinfect my house, so those around me wouldn’t get infected. As the video addressed, some hospitals view infections as plane crashes, “an unacceptable problem that needs investigation.” Other hospitals view them as car crashes, “just a tragic event of a risky business.” Allowing infection to spread due to negligent behavior among our healthcare professionals is extreme issue that needs to be addressed. Washing hands is very important in medicine and there are many reasons why we do it. We do not wash our hands to simply prevent germs and diseases from spreading, we wash them because it’s the ethical thing to do. As a health care professional, you have a duty to your patients and that is to prevent harm to them and give them the best care you can provide. As you pointed out, many nurses unfortunately do not. Not washing your hands is intentionally being negligent. And for those hospitals who address this as a car crash, just a tragic event, is also intentionally negligent because they know the risk behind not washing their hands. The nurse’s duty is to prevent harm to her patients and coworkers by taking extra precautions so the infectious disease does not spread. The nurse breached this duty by not washing her/his hands. By not doing this, the nurse’s affected party is at risk. Poor choices like this is a failure of the standard of due care because healthcare professionals are not taking appropriate care to prevent harm. I completely understand your frustration and more importantly I stress that it’s beyond unethical for healthcare professionals to allow preventable infectious diseases from spreading.

ikr haha, it's hard to believe they really did not want to showcase themselves and possibly not look as bad, or could it be because vox never asked them?

It doesnt matter though because theres evidence in 1 how many infections she got and 2 they're response to the mother. Remember that was their truthful response to criticisms about their techniques and they basically told the mom it's just the nature of things

Onshi ri It would still be useful to see their sterilization process. Maybe it would then be possible to pinpoint what the problem was.

They did that because it doesn't fit their narrative. Central lines are always put in under sterile conditions. Standford has weekly conferences with doctors to discuss unexpected complications. Stanford is twice the size and treats far sicker patients who are more likely to get an infection. They built a false narrative based solely on a letter sent to a grieving mother by the legal department.

It was a pretty awful outcome, that's true. I consider her having passed away with her mother holding her a positive rather than a negative part of the story, though. It would have been better if she had survived, but still, it wasn't the worst way to go. It would have been worse if she had passed while her mother wasn't by her side.

That's not what depression is

Every day we are trained to treat each person with the highest of care, nothing is perfect but the level of effort does not waiver based on the patient. We are actually not allowed to treat a person of interest in order to maintain that standard. The reason there are hospitals that are considered to be better out there is because of things like funding and employee experience. Both of which are very high in variability

Alexa Dipeso bullshit every hospital and clinic I've been to all the medical staff have treated me bad only some stopped once I complained but the current clinic I go to has treated me terribly throughout my entire prenatal care. all we are is a paycheck very few about 2 percent of medical personnel actually care about patients.

Sadientra to me the hospital wouldn't take accountability for their own mistakes which to me means they do not aren't interested in how the patients are so no doubt they really don't show interest in their staff's long term effects, just the implication of liability bothers them.

monay monay right my dad got surgery and the nurse he got to clean and dress his wound was very rude and unprofessional she kept telling my dad that he shouldn't yell when she cleaned out his wound. which we ended up finding out later that she was supposed to give him pain medicine before cleaning his wound to prevent pain/ the cleaning being difficult. we found out from another nurse who actually followed correct procedures with my dad later. And she was telling him that he should be complaining ( first nurse told him this).

@@mauz791 , for just hooking the antibiotic solution to the line, they used a single pair of gloves after washing hands (plus special sanitiser caps on the ports). For changing the dressing that held the line in place, they used two pairs of gloves, everyone including me used masks and they draped me with sterile towelling to maintain a sterile field. They were super, super careful. I asked how long it had been since they'd had a central line infection and the nurse said she wasn't sure but she thought it was 6 or 7 years. She went off to check for sure and said that according to their records, it was nearly 10 years.

@@bosstowndynamics5488 Still working on margins though, if sanitizing a whole room, using six pairs of gloves, and hiring another well trained nurse costs more on average than the 1/1000 chance of an infection without those procedures the hospital will cut out the practice.

There is practically unlimited demand if their condition is bad enough. There is all to often no option for the consumer/patient to say no deal and wait/look somewhere else.

It's only a business if it's allowed to be. America has one of the worst healthcare systems in the world. Cuba has better healthcare and everyone has a right to healthcare. It's the same in the UK where I'm from.

Lol go live in some imaginary place

William Cowan that’s the goal. To make it a variable that one doesn’t need to think about that option

In my country IIRC some reviewers had been sued by food outlets over their negative reviews
