      Dumbest central line scene ever just aired on @NBCChicagoMed. The patient’s not just not in Trendelenberg, his heads propped up on pillows.🤦🏻‍♂️

      And now the medical student’s being persuaded to put a chest tube in. This will go well…🙄

      No supervision when the central line went in, and now no supervision when the chest tube goes in? 😬

          Wonder if the central line caused the ptx? 😜

          I suspect mistakes of this kind are rife in every TV show no matter what 'field' we're talkin' about. Crime show, Law show, Medical show, etc. Always loopholes and inconsistent stuff on there to legitimately nit pick it with an 'Aha they screwed up big time', etc.

          They are. I know a forensic tech who found CSI to be high comedy. I'd guess it's a matter of not bothering to research what you're writing about, or having a well-researched script edited by someone who didn't bother.

          I had a chest tube and I don't think I would want another with someone practicing. I wouldn't want a beginner removing said chest tube. From what I remember, before the blinding pain, it felt like someone was trying to start me like a chain saw.

          My wife will try to show me these scenes and I run screaming from the room. I just can’t. I mean, don’t they have consultants?
