@@silent_nezukowhat would they type in google to find the ep i wrote dr house ep num where boy swallows fridge magnet and nothin popped up also who hurt you and you started acting like a total ass
@@jeremywomack7090yeah like a professional father in a business suit...they light up with dollar signs. That kid is gonna have a pretty interesting morning. one of my friends patients had a kid who swallowed a couple of matchbox toy cars and he just handed the kid a red lollipop to "celebrate the end of the race". 😂
@@jeremywomack7090 you really think some colorectal surgeon is gonna put his license on the line to collect a small fraction of RVUs on a fairly intense laparotomy
@@shaylxixit's the natural selection part he's referencing, meaning since the kid is 8 he should already know not to eat a magnet therefore if he were to die then so be it natural selection. The law of nature depicts survival of the fittest
House hates that he can not figure out why people choose to take their lives. It’s the ultimate puzzle he hasn’t been able to solve. Every time it’s happened he resorts to using remedial methods like a child, because it’s so foreign to him.
The way you sarcastically insulted the way he acts towards it, lets me know that you’re more knowledgeable or too accepting of it House Is not a psychiatrist, nor is he a psychologist… a lot of intelligent people don’t understand why people commit suicide. Because they see it further than just the depression that it takes to commit suicide. And we have different areas of medical sciences. The truth is that logically suicide doesn’t make sense. But psychologically it does.
@@Rumplegirlskin I'm not 'sarcastically insulting' anything. If you actually watched the show, I'm parroting a bit of what his inshow therapist says to him AND what Wilson says to him after Kutner ALSO commits suicide. Maybe if you'd spend time watching the actual show you'd know that! :^)
Edit: Since everyone wants to know... "One Day, One Room" Season 3, Episode 12 The girl is named Eve. She was r@ped at a friends party. She just found out she has Chlamydia. When House tried to give her meds she smacked them from his hand and said "Gat away from me!" which is how he figured out her trauma. He immediately asked Cuddy to send her a therapist to talk to. The girl BEGGED for House, but the therapist was sent. This clip depicts how that therapy session went. In the end she finds out she's pregnant and she still only wants House to treat her. She is carrying trauma and she can somehow tell that he is as well (his father abused him for years) so she trusts him. He tries to convince her to get an @bortion. She refuses, claiming her religion believes it is murder. After taking a walk with House and having a long discussion she finally talks about the r@pe and decides to get an @bortion.
@somanyonionspleasewalker6506 from what I could assume from the short she seems like to type of teenager who would at least answer yes or no question let alone complain, so not responding for an hour straight seems like it should spark concern, especially in a hospital
Define “mess up,” because metal absolutely can and often does cause starburst artifacts on CT. It’s no big deal in most cases but it’s something to be aware of when a patient needs imaging.
The context was the woman seizing/OD'ing was SA'd, and the only one she trusts to speak to is House. She doesn't even understand why, but she won't accept help from anyone else. So the nurse/therapist/whoever that woman was, was probably trying to help with whatever generic advice you can give to someone who won't speak to you. The girl was devastated, she found out she was pregnant and the incident itself only happened recently. She was volatile enough to want to just get it overwith. The end of the episode has a wonderful ending. The entire show is pretty shitty quality, but occasionally it puts all its eggs in one basket and creates genuinely moving stories.
Not really. It is only painful if he did not get his regular fiber intake. I swallowed a coin once when i was 4 years old. My mom just make me eat lots of bread and veggies and drink lots of milk and i pooped it out just fine.
The writers are great candidates. First scalpel blades are stainless steel, which is non-magnetic. Second, the magnetic force of putting metal to his belly would cause the magnet to tear the stomach lining slowly, killing the kid when house lets him leave
The girl was sexually assaulted and found out she had an STD. She specifically kept asking for House, even though he kept trying to pawn her off, since he believed that he’d just make things worse for her. She tried to kill herself with the pills but ended up surviving
The only way a magnet could do serious damage is 1. If its strong enough to shoot out of the body and stick to something (which is highly unlikely) or 2. If you eat 2 or more magnets. Because when they go through the intestines, your squiggly, curvy intestines, the magnets have a possibility of ripping and tearing through the intestines if they are strong enough.
Not all surgical steel is non-magnetic. It depends on how much chromium is used to manufacture it. We made several different grades for different medical applications in the place I worked. A surprising number of devices are magnetic
@@ClaricePearl Also another reason why they never allow any medical equipment into an MRI room like scalpels. Don't need one to suddenly fly across the room into a patient even if they think it's non-magnetic.
Well. If I am not mistaken. He used a Swann-Morton No. 10 Sterile Surgical Blade, in a number three handle. Which can be supplied sterile in either Carbon Steel or stainless steel. I am into model making, and have these. And I just tried a strong fridge magnet which stuck to it. The bigger question is how strong would that magnet have to be to get attracted that easily through even a child's belly lol.
I swallowed magnets when I was little. I was thrown into a wheel chair. After I got an Xray I had to get my stomach pumped immediately because the magnets separated and they could have potentially ripped my intestines or stomach. Not fun
I love the attention to detail. Notice how the scalpel stuck to the skin just to the left and below the kid’s navel, where the magnet supposedly is located. Anatomically speaking, that would be about the end of the descending colon, or the last section of the colon. Specifically speaking, it looks like it’s nearing the rectum. So, House is right, the kid is getting ready to pass it in his stool.
Most surgical steel is magnetic and most scalpels are magnetic as well but there are specific non-magnetic scalpels and tools for special circumstances, specifically during an MRI if memory serves i could be mistaken about the MRI tho it may be something else but it does pertain to magnetic stuff being a no go.
My brother swallowed 2 coins when he was little... They did x-ray and said my parents should wait for 2 days if he doesn't pass it out, he'd be operated on. See my mum checking his poopoo like an FBI Agent. By the second day, he went to poopoo and passed both coins out.
Man, this whole thing is wild! Like, how do you even forget a scalpel?! 😂 Makes for a crazy story tho. Hope the kid is okay now. Kids are tough, but man, that's some next level adventure right there! 🤦♂️🩺
For anyone wondering, the girl was a rape victim who fixates on House to work through the issue. He tried to get the shrink, the other woman, to see her instead and this happened.

Okay I looked it up and the house show that's supposed to be just house is actually House M.D. which makes more sense than just house this is why it's important to do your research first.
@@JohnnyAppleseed-yl6foscalpel are made of aluminum. Or stainless steel or plastic. Well from something which won’t rust. The blade is made to be changed because it must be as sharp as possible and those are recycled but the handle is kept.
@@JohnnyAppleseed-yl6fo No... They are NOT. The blade pops off the handle. The blades go in a sharps container, and the handles go into the autoclave to be sterilized and reused. There are several different blades that can be put on the same handle. There are some handles that are plastic, surgical steel, aluminum is most popular at least in my neck of the woods. I have used hundreds maybe even into the thousands by now I don't keep count. I just know that that handle is NOT surgical steel. It looks like a Miltex #3 THAT handle is ALUMINUM in this clip.
I feel like when people in the hospital founf House rude, the people he was treating like this kid were glad he was being so dismissive about certain things. Like imagine having your child getting cut open for however long, because they don't know where the magnet is, having to pay for that surgery and the recovery + medication, when they could've just pass it by themselves.
As a combat medic, I prefer and sadly give the un-sugared version with patience over the age of 18. You want the truth, I give it but don’t expect $50 dollars from it.
Always in denial or against whatever house suggests even tho 95% of the episodes he’s right. You would think they’d realize they should trust him by now lol
hi -- if your kid swallows a magnet, do not try to stick anything to it. itll be around a lot of soft tissue that really really doesnt want to be pinched between stuff. take them to urgent care; they will tell you how to proceed.
Yes, it probably would affect imaging. But you know what’s not metal nor magnetic? The human body. Just watch the kid, he’ll pass it out. If it’s big enough and causes a blockage then that’s a different story but for now, the magnetism means nothing.
