#I almost died once from a medical student fucking up my fluids and failing to cap the IV
Text
This experience does raise, again, an eternal question for me, i.e., how to train medical students "in vitro/in situ" while avoiding potentially dangerous iatrogenic harm to patients when the learning process entails inevitable mistakes
#I almost died once from a medical student fucking up my fluids and failing to cap the IV#If I hadn't caught the mistake I would have had serious trouble#Like the combo mistake would have led to air bubbles in my blood + bacterial contamination#That with my immune system would 100% have led to sepsis#Also had one of my teeth fucked up by a dental student and my chemo in high school overdosed by a pharmacology student#Like the training is necessary but sometimes people get seriously hurt in the process#Augh
