0:01:03 > 0:01:05Hello! I'm Dr Ranj.

0:01:05 > 0:01:08Welcome to our very special hospital just for children.

0:01:08 > 0:01:10Come on, I'll show you around.

0:01:17 > 0:01:21Lots of clever people, like doctors and nurses, work here.

0:01:21 > 0:01:26And they're specially trained to care for children just like you.

0:01:29 > 0:01:33You may come here because you're not feeling well...

0:01:33 > 0:01:36or you need to have a test...

0:01:36 > 0:01:37or an operation.

0:01:39 > 0:01:42- Hello.- Hello, Dr Ranj.

0:01:44 > 0:01:48But don't worry, whatever you're here for, there'll be someone like

0:01:48 > 0:01:52me to check that you're healthy, or to help you get well soon.

0:01:53 > 0:01:56This is my floor. I'd better get to work.

0:01:58 > 0:02:01Hello. I'm in the radiology department.

0:02:01 > 0:02:05This is where we use special machines to see inside your body.

0:02:05 > 0:02:10I've got a patient coming to see me today. I wonder who it will be.

0:02:10 > 0:02:12Who's come to visit me?

0:02:12 > 0:02:15Who will it be? Can you guess which friend it is?

0:02:15 > 0:02:16Let's see.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22I know who that is.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24It's Kiwa.

0:02:25 > 0:02:27Whee!

0:02:27 > 0:02:30# I've got the wheels and I can ride

0:02:30 > 0:02:32# I can whisk down any slide

0:02:32 > 0:02:34# I've got wheels

0:02:34 > 0:02:36# I've got wheels

0:02:36 > 0:02:38# I've got wheels

0:02:38 > 0:02:40# I've got wheels

0:02:40 > 0:02:44# The doctor knows I need Adventure, fun and speed

0:02:44 > 0:02:46# I've got wheels Round and round and round

0:02:46 > 0:02:48# I've got wheels Whizzing round

0:02:48 > 0:02:51# I've got wheels Round and round and round

0:02:51 > 0:02:53# I've got wheels Whizzing round. #

0:02:53 > 0:02:55I've got wheels! Woo!

0:02:56 > 0:03:00- Hello, Kiwa, come in.- Hi, Dr Ranj.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03Do you know why you've come to see me today, Kiwa?

0:03:03 > 0:03:07Erm, because I did stingy wees, Dr Ranj.

0:03:07 > 0:03:11That's nothing to be embarrassed about, you did a stingy wee

0:03:11 > 0:03:13because you had an infection.

0:03:13 > 0:03:16- Infection?- If you have an infection,

0:03:16 > 0:03:20it sometimes means that a part of your body isn't working properly.

0:03:20 > 0:03:25- Oh.- So today we're going to check by looking inside your body.

0:03:25 > 0:03:28- SHE GASPS - Really?

0:03:28 > 0:03:32How are you going to look INSIDE my body, Dr Ranj?

0:03:32 > 0:03:36I'm going to do something we call an ultrasound scan.

0:03:36 > 0:03:40- Hmm. Will it hurt? - No, Kiwa, not at all.

0:03:40 > 0:03:43An ultrasound scan uses sound waves.

0:03:43 > 0:03:44Oh, OK.

0:03:44 > 0:03:47Hi, Dr Ranj.

0:03:47 > 0:03:49You don't need to wave, Kiwa,

0:03:49 > 0:03:53the sound waves bounce off parts of your body inside.

0:03:53 > 0:03:55Oh, will I feel them bouncing inside me?

0:03:55 > 0:03:58No, Kiwa, you won't feel anything.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01Oh. Well, what happens then?

0:04:01 > 0:04:04From the sound waves, the machine creates a picture

0:04:04 > 0:04:07on a computer screen of the inside of your body.

0:04:07 > 0:04:11Wow. Will I be able to see inside my body, too, Dr Ranj?

0:04:11 > 0:04:15You'll be able to see the pictures on the computer screen.

0:04:15 > 0:04:19Oh, great. What bits of me are you going to look at?

0:04:19 > 0:04:23We're going to look at your kidneys, to check they're healthy,

0:04:23 > 0:04:27- and your bladder, too.- My bladder? Is that like a big ladder?

0:04:27 > 0:04:29Cos I don't think I've got one of those.

0:04:29 > 0:04:35- No, Kiwa, your bladder is like a balloon inside your body.- A balloon?

0:04:35 > 0:04:39Yes, a balloon that holds your wee. Look.

0:04:44 > 0:04:46Hm. It doesn't look very big.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48How can it hold all my wee?

0:04:48 > 0:04:51Your bladder can stretch.

0:04:51 > 0:04:54Oh. Just like a balloon!

0:04:54 > 0:04:58Yes, a bit like if I fill up this balloon with air...

0:05:00 > 0:05:03..and then if I blow more,

0:05:03 > 0:05:06the balloon will stretch just like your bladder.

0:05:06 > 0:05:08Hmm!

0:05:08 > 0:05:12As it starts to fill up, your bladder tells your body that it

0:05:12 > 0:05:17needs emptying and that's when your body tells you you need a wee.

0:05:17 > 0:05:21Oh. And what was the other thing you said we were going to look at,

0:05:21 > 0:05:23- Dr Ranj?- Your kidneys.

0:05:23 > 0:05:25Kidneys? You mean these?

0:05:26 > 0:05:28I'm a kid and there's my knees.

0:05:29 > 0:05:30No, Kiwa, look.

0:05:32 > 0:05:35- SHE GASPS - They look like beans!

0:05:35 > 0:05:37That's how kidney beans get their name,

0:05:37 > 0:05:39because they're a similar shape.

0:05:39 > 0:05:44I eat kidney beans. But I wouldn't eat my kidneys, Dr Ranj.

0:05:44 > 0:05:48No, Kiwa, your kidneys are very important. They work very hard.

0:05:48 > 0:05:50Oh, well, what do they do?

0:05:50 > 0:05:53Your kidneys are like little cleaners for your body.

0:05:53 > 0:05:56They take the waste out of your blood.

0:05:56 > 0:05:59Oh, like when we get rid of the rubbish at home.

0:05:59 > 0:06:03Along with any water that your body doesn't need, the waste gets

0:06:03 > 0:06:07taken out of your blood by your kidneys and is turned into wee.

0:06:07 > 0:06:11And then your wee is sent from your kidneys to your...

0:06:11 > 0:06:13- Bladder!- That's right. SHE LAUGHS

0:06:13 > 0:06:17Sometimes, if you have a problem with your kidneys and bladder,

0:06:17 > 0:06:19your wee can get infected

0:06:19 > 0:06:24and that can make it stingy, so that's why we're taking a look.

0:06:24 > 0:06:26- Oh. OK. - SHE LAUGHS

0:06:28 > 0:06:32So are you ready for me to do the ultrasound scan now, Kiwa?

0:06:32 > 0:06:34Yes, I can't wait to see inside my body.

0:06:34 > 0:06:38OK then. You'll see everything on this monitor.

0:06:38 > 0:06:43- Oh!- The pictures are sent to the monitor using this ultrasound probe.

0:06:43 > 0:06:47It looks like we're going to play a video game!

0:06:47 > 0:06:51I'll need to move this probe across your tummy to create the pictures.

0:06:51 > 0:06:53- Oh.- Comfortable, Kiwa?

0:06:53 > 0:06:59- Yes.- Good. Before I get started, I'll need to use some special jelly.

0:06:59 > 0:07:03Oh, jelly? Thanks, Dr Ranj, but I'm not very hungry.

0:07:03 > 0:07:07You don't eat it, Kiwa, this is special hospital jelly that goes on

0:07:07 > 0:07:11your skin to help the ultrasound probe moves smoothly.

0:07:11 > 0:07:12Oh...

0:07:14 > 0:07:15There.

0:07:15 > 0:07:17SHE GIGGLES How's that?

0:07:17 > 0:07:20Gooey!

0:07:20 > 0:07:23Let's have a look at your bladder first, then.

0:07:24 > 0:07:26What's that?

0:07:26 > 0:07:28That's your bladder.

0:07:28 > 0:07:31- SHE GASPS - Is it?!- That's it.

0:07:31 > 0:07:33It's a very blurry bladder.

0:07:33 > 0:07:36The pictures might look blurry to you, Kiwa,

0:07:36 > 0:07:40- but I can see that your bladder looks normal.- Oh, good.

0:07:40 > 0:07:42Can we see my kidneys now, please?

0:07:42 > 0:07:45That's what we're going to do next, Kiwa.

0:07:45 > 0:07:49I'll move the ultrasound probe around a bit to get the best picture

0:07:49 > 0:07:50of each kidney.

0:07:50 > 0:07:54- OK.- And that's one of your kidneys, Kiwa, right there.

0:07:54 > 0:07:58Oh. It looks more like a blurry blob than a bean.

0:07:58 > 0:08:02A healthy kidney too, from what I can see.

0:08:02 > 0:08:05Now, let's check your other kidney, too.

0:08:05 > 0:08:07- SHE GASPS - Is that it?

0:08:07 > 0:08:12Yes, Kiwa, that's your other kidney and that looks healthy.

0:08:12 > 0:08:14Great, kidneys are cool!

0:08:25 > 0:08:30# Don't be shy, let's find out why Your kidneys will amaze you

0:08:30 > 0:08:34# They keep all the bad stuff out They're like a clever strainer

0:08:34 > 0:08:37# Respect for your kidneys Where would we all be

0:08:37 > 0:08:42# If they didn't do their job and if we couldn't wee?

0:08:42 > 0:08:46# Respect for your kidneys Where would be all be?

0:08:46 > 0:08:52# They clean up what's inside you and help you do a wee

0:08:52 > 0:08:55My kidneys are like beans!

0:08:55 > 0:08:57- I'm full of beans. - SHE GIGGLES

0:08:59 > 0:09:04# And if you need a kidney test The doc will spread the jelly

0:09:04 > 0:09:08# So he can use the ultrasound to look inside your belly.

0:09:08 > 0:09:12# Respect for your kidneys Where would we all be

0:09:12 > 0:09:16# If they didn't do their job and if we couldn't wee?

0:09:16 > 0:09:20# Respect for your kidneys Where would we be?

0:09:20 > 0:09:26# They clean up what's inside and help you do a wee. #

0:09:26 > 0:09:29There you go, Kiwa, nice and clean.

0:09:29 > 0:09:32From the pictures we saw on your ultrasound scan, it

0:09:32 > 0:09:37looks like your kidneys and bladder are healthy and working properly.

0:09:37 > 0:09:42Well, that's really good, Dr Ranj. But why did I do stingy wees, then?

0:09:42 > 0:09:46Sometimes bad germs inside our bodies cause infections for no

0:09:46 > 0:09:48reason at all.

0:09:48 > 0:09:51So...will I do stingy wees again?

0:09:51 > 0:09:55Hopefully not, Kiwa, but if you do, we'll give you some more medicine to

0:09:55 > 0:09:59make you better. But for now, I'm going to give you a sticker.

0:09:59 > 0:10:03Oh! A sticker and not a stinger, Dr Ranj.

0:10:03 > 0:10:06SHE CHUCKLES Definitely not a stinger.

0:10:07 > 0:10:10- Thanks, Dr Ranj.- Bye, Kiwa.

0:10:10 > 0:10:15It's time for me and everyone here at the children's hospital to say

0:10:15 > 0:10:18goodbye now. Thanks for coming to see us. See you next time.

0:10:18 > 0:10:22But until then, be happy, be healthy and get well soon!

0:10:41 > 0:10:44If you're not feeling well, it's always best to go

0:10:44 > 0:10:47and see your own doctor - and get well soon.
