0:00:22 > 0:00:25He's Dr Chris.
0:00:25 > 0:00:29- He's Dr Xand. - And, yes, we're identical twins.
0:00:29 > 0:00:34Do you know, your body does heaps of amazing things every single day...
0:00:34 > 0:00:38- That is incredible. - ..and we're going to show you how.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40Ugh, you've cut him in half!
0:00:40 > 0:00:44In this new series, we'll be getting to the heart...
0:00:44 > 0:00:48- Yay!- ..of what makes your brilliant body tick.
0:00:48 > 0:00:51We're back with more incredible experiments...
0:00:51 > 0:00:54- Wow! - ..and real life medical emergencies.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57- There's a big chunk of me leg missing.- Ouch!
0:00:57 > 0:01:02- We'll be turning our bodies inside out...- Oh, yuck!
0:01:02 > 0:01:04..to show YOU what you're made of.
0:01:04 > 0:01:05HE FARTS
0:01:05 > 0:01:07- You should see a doctor. - Better go find one.
0:01:07 > 0:01:09HE CLEARS THROAT
0:01:09 > 0:01:12Dr Xand.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15HE SIGHS
0:01:15 > 0:01:18- Coming up on Operation... - Operation Ouch!
0:01:19 > 0:01:22We get to the bottom of your guts.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25One week's worth of farts.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27Whoa!
0:01:27 > 0:01:29We go ouch and about with our portable clinic to solve
0:01:29 > 0:01:31your medical mysteries.
0:01:31 > 0:01:32Next patient, please.
0:01:32 > 0:01:36And Chris is put through his paces on a rather unique hospital ward.
0:01:36 > 0:01:37DUMMY RETCHES
0:01:37 > 0:01:39Oh, he's being sick!
0:01:39 > 0:01:42But first...
0:01:42 > 0:01:46The staff in the Emergency Room thought they'd seen everything.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48But they weren't expecting this.
0:01:49 > 0:01:53In Manchester, waiting with her mum and dad is five-year-old Alice,
0:01:53 > 0:01:56and it looks as though she's hurt her hooter.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58Ooh, that DOES look nasty!
0:01:58 > 0:02:00She fell over and bashed her nose
0:02:00 > 0:02:03so she's got a nasty little cut along the side of her nose here.
0:02:03 > 0:02:06A witch came to catch me.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08The witch? What's all that about?
0:02:08 > 0:02:12Alison and her friend Colette were at school.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14So where was the witch? Unless you mean those dinner ladies.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16THEY CACKLE
0:02:16 > 0:02:17I think they're cooking up a spell.
0:02:17 > 0:02:21No, Xand, Colette was pretending to be a witch and was chasing Alice.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25Run, Alice!
0:02:25 > 0:02:28Alice ran through the playground trying to get away
0:02:28 > 0:02:31- but the witch was catching up fast. - Oh, no!
0:02:31 > 0:02:33Alice ran faster and faster,
0:02:33 > 0:02:37- and just as the witch was about to grab her, she tripped.- Uh-oh!
0:02:39 > 0:02:42Alice went flying across the playground, landing face first.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44Ouch!
0:02:44 > 0:02:47Here's ear, nose and throat doctor, Ricky Pal.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50Maybe he can cast a spell to mend that snout.
0:02:50 > 0:02:55- What have you done? - Just falled over and hit my nose.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58Dr Ricky needs to take a closer look.
0:02:58 > 0:03:02There are lots of nooks and crannies in your nose that could be damaged
0:03:02 > 0:03:04if it takes a bash.
0:03:04 > 0:03:08The nostrils, the nasal passages and the bit down the middle,
0:03:08 > 0:03:11called the septum - it's made of bone and cartilage.
0:03:11 > 0:03:14Alice's cut hasn't reached the cartilage, but it has sliced
0:03:14 > 0:03:16right through her nostril.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19Luckily, Dr Ricky knows how to fix it.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21She needs to have that stitched in theatre.
0:03:21 > 0:03:25So, we'll put her to sleep under an anaesthetic and then we'll
0:03:25 > 0:03:29just get the edges of the cut lined up and stitched together nicely.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31Whee!
0:03:31 > 0:03:33We'll be back later to see how Alice gets on.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35SIREN WAILS AND TYRES SCREECH
0:03:38 > 0:03:42And now to our lab for some amazing body experiments.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44- Urgh!- Whoa!
0:03:44 > 0:03:47Just don't try anything you see here at home.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53Today we're getting to grips with your guts.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56Xand, what's going on? It's snack time.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58Snack time's cancelled, Chris,
0:03:58 > 0:04:02because I've laid a set of pig guts end-to-end all over the bench.
0:04:02 > 0:04:03I can see that, Xand.
0:04:03 > 0:04:08The smell is terrible, but it does look amazing. Why have you done it?
0:04:08 > 0:04:10I just wanted to see how long it all is, really.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13'Your intestines are eight to nine metres long
0:04:13 > 0:04:16'but until you lay it out like this, it's hard to imagine.'
0:04:16 > 0:04:20It's amazing how it can all fit in your body without getting tangled.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22But Xand, if only we had another set of guts,
0:04:22 > 0:04:25that you hadn't laid out, we could see that special
0:04:25 > 0:04:28part of your body that stops that tangling happening.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31Well, it's funny you should mention that, Chris, because I've always
0:04:31 > 0:04:34said that there's only one thing better than a set of pig guts,
0:04:34 > 0:04:36and that's TWO sets of guts!
0:04:36 > 0:04:39I don't think you've ever said that before in your life.
0:04:39 > 0:04:44But it does look like this one does seem to have the mesentery.
0:04:44 > 0:04:45Yes, the mesentery.
0:04:45 > 0:04:49The amazing bit of your body which stops your guts getting tangled
0:04:49 > 0:04:51and gives them blood and nutrients.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53And you can see it here - this white bit is the mesentery
0:04:53 > 0:04:56and there are blood vessels running through it.
0:04:56 > 0:05:00And you can see it holds all the guts together.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03Without the mesentery, your gut would have to be in a straight line from
0:05:03 > 0:05:07your mouth to your bum and you'd be as tall as two double-decker buses.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09(That would be tall!)
0:05:09 > 0:05:13Your guts are split into two sections - the large intestine
0:05:13 > 0:05:17and the small intestine, which isn't that small at all.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20This is the small intestine and it runs all the way from here,
0:05:20 > 0:05:22around here, right down to there.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25And THIS is where the action takes place,
0:05:25 > 0:05:29and inside, it's covered in tiny finger-like projections called villi,
0:05:29 > 0:05:32and you can only see them under a microscope.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36Villi have an important job to do.
0:05:36 > 0:05:40As the food moves along and touches them, the villi absorb every
0:05:40 > 0:05:44tiny little bit of nutrient, including fat, sugars and proteins,
0:05:44 > 0:05:46into the wall of your intestines,
0:05:46 > 0:05:49passing it out into your blood for your body to use.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55But, there's one thing about intestines we haven't discussed,
0:05:55 > 0:05:57Chris, and that's...
0:05:57 > 0:05:58LOUD FART
0:05:58 > 0:06:00Urgh, Xand! What have you been eating?
0:06:00 > 0:06:02Farting is completely natural.
0:06:02 > 0:06:06It's just your body's way of getting rid of unwanted built up gas,
0:06:06 > 0:06:09and everyone does it about 14 times a day.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11It doesn't matter if we're talking about your head teacher
0:06:11 > 0:06:16or the Queen herself, we all do it, and it's honestly not your fault.
0:06:16 > 0:06:17He is actually right there.
0:06:17 > 0:06:21Inside your large intestines there are millions of good bacteria
0:06:21 > 0:06:24that are there to help break down food.
0:06:24 > 0:06:27And as they eat, they produce a mixture of gases,
0:06:27 > 0:06:29which is what makes you let rip.
0:06:29 > 0:06:34This combination of gases is made up mainly of air, carbon dioxide,
0:06:34 > 0:06:36hydrogen sulphide and methane.
0:06:36 > 0:06:40And the methane contains a lot of energy, as we're about to show you.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43And for this, I'm going to need a special piece of equipment.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45Chris's hand.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50Now, this is a cylinder of methane
0:06:50 > 0:06:52and I'm going to release one day's worth of farts.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54This experiment is highly dangerous.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57We're in a controlled lab using specially manufactured gas.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59Don't even think about trying this yourself!
0:06:59 > 0:07:03Get your hand wet. Now scoop up those bubbles.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06That's right. Hold them well away from you.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09I don't like the look of this!
0:07:09 > 0:07:12Argh! Xand, that was amazing!
0:07:12 > 0:07:15So, that's how much energy there is in a day's worth of farts?
0:07:15 > 0:07:18Exactly. That's one day's worth of farts.
0:07:18 > 0:07:22- Well, you know what we have to do now?- A week's worth.- Precisely.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24One week's worth of farts.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31That's really good, isn't it?
0:07:31 > 0:07:35- So, we've done a day.- We've done a week.- Dare we do a month?
0:07:35 > 0:07:37Yes, we do dare. Do it.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40- Here we go.- Light it.
0:07:40 > 0:07:41- Wow!- Wow!
0:07:41 > 0:07:43It's amazing!
0:07:43 > 0:07:46- Wow!- Whoa!
0:07:46 > 0:07:49So, we've shown you just how incredible your intestines are
0:07:49 > 0:07:51and how much energy there is in your farts.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53Remember, when you let rip,
0:07:53 > 0:07:57it's an essential part of how your body gets rid of excess gas.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00And, now you know whose fault it is that you do them
0:08:00 > 0:08:01in the first place.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03Those cheeky little gut bacteria.
0:08:03 > 0:08:04But, if they weren't in our intestines,
0:08:04 > 0:08:07we'd end up with undigested food sitting in there forever.
0:08:07 > 0:08:10So, there really is no reason to be ashamed of your...
0:08:10 > 0:08:13HE FARTS
0:08:15 > 0:08:16SIRENS WAIL
0:08:16 > 0:08:20Now we're getting ouch and about with our mobile clinic.
0:08:20 > 0:08:24Today we're at a theme park to help solve your medical mysteries.
0:08:24 > 0:08:28If you're anxious about an ailment or curious about a condition
0:08:28 > 0:08:31then the Ouch-mobile is the place for you.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33That is incredible!
0:08:33 > 0:08:36Xand is preparing the clinic ready for his first patient.
0:08:36 > 0:08:40And Chris is out in the park to answer your burning questions.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42At the clinic, Xand has opened for business.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45- Can I have the next patient? - Hi, Dr Xand.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47First in is 11-year-old Eugene,
0:08:47 > 0:08:50with a question about an itchy ailment on his arms.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53So, Eugene, what's brought you to the Ouch-mobile today?
0:08:53 > 0:08:58Well, I've got something really itchy and annoying on my arms.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00What's the diagnosis, Doc?
0:09:00 > 0:09:01Sounds to me like a case of
0:09:01 > 0:09:06- I've-got-something-really-annoying and-itchy-on-my-arms-itis.- Spot on!
0:09:06 > 0:09:09So, what we're looking at here is actually something called eczema.
0:09:09 > 0:09:13It happens when too many skin cells are produced, and it's also a chance
0:09:13 > 0:09:16for Xand to show off his doctor skills.
0:09:16 > 0:09:21What I can see here is xerodermia, lichenification and excoriations.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23What that really means is, it's just the Greek words for dry skin,
0:09:23 > 0:09:25itchiness, rough skin.
0:09:25 > 0:09:29Yeah, OK, Xand. Anything YOU want to ask, Eugene?
0:09:29 > 0:09:31Is there anything I can do to make my eczema better?
0:09:31 > 0:09:34Keeping it really well moisturised will stop it itching
0:09:34 > 0:09:36and keep that skin looking nice.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39Beyond that, avoiding itchy fabrics like wool, nylon, polyester,
0:09:39 > 0:09:40things like that.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43Apart from that, one of the things you can do is get older.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45So, as you get older, it's likely that it'll clear up,
0:09:45 > 0:09:48and lots of people who have eczema when they're children
0:09:48 > 0:09:50don't have it when they're adults.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55Away from the clinic, Chris is ouch and about in the park
0:09:55 > 0:09:57solving your medical mysteries.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00Why do we get brain freeze when we eat ice cream?
0:10:00 > 0:10:01Well, it's to do with
0:10:01 > 0:10:04when the cold ice cream gets into your mouth on a hot day,
0:10:04 > 0:10:08the nerves in your mouth contract all the blood vessels around your mouth
0:10:08 > 0:10:10cos blood is one of the ways of your body cooling itself down.
0:10:10 > 0:10:14So, you get pain from the nerves from the cold and you get
0:10:14 > 0:10:16changes in the amount of blood in your head, and that's what hurts.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18Why do you sprain your muscles?
0:10:18 > 0:10:22If you move a muscle when you're not ready to use it,
0:10:22 > 0:10:26you can actually tear all the little fibres that make it work.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29And they'll heal up, and they may even heal up stronger.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32That's why weightlifting makes us stronger, it tears our muscles.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35But in the short term, it swells up and it really hurts,
0:10:35 > 0:10:37but it almost always gets better.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41Back at the Ouch-mobile, there's a new case in the waiting room...
0:10:41 > 0:10:43Next patient, please.
0:10:43 > 0:10:47..and it's 11-year-old James with a curious case on his face.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49So, James, what's brought you to the Ouch-mobile today?
0:10:49 > 0:10:52Well, I have a birthmark shaped like Britain.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55Wow, look at that! What's the diagnosis, Doc?
0:10:55 > 0:10:57Sounds like a case of
0:10:57 > 0:11:00I've-got-a-birthmark shaped-like-Britain-on-my-face-itis.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02That's exactly what I'd say.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06It really does look like Britain, doesn't it?
0:11:06 > 0:11:08All right, James, I want a bit of a geography lesson from you.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10Where are we on the birthmark?
0:11:10 > 0:11:12We are down there at the bottom.
0:11:12 > 0:11:14We're down there.
0:11:14 > 0:11:17As a doctor, I'm very interested in marks on people's faces,
0:11:17 > 0:11:19so I've got to check it out and make sure it's OK.
0:11:19 > 0:11:21I'm looking at the edges. I'm making sure they're not raised,
0:11:21 > 0:11:24they're not too irregular, that it's not bleeding.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26Everything about James's mark on his face says
0:11:26 > 0:11:28it's a normal healthy birthmark.
0:11:28 > 0:11:30Why is my birthmark shaped like Britain?
0:11:30 > 0:11:32There isn't actually any rhyme or reason
0:11:32 > 0:11:34why birthmarks are shaped in particular ways,
0:11:34 > 0:11:37but your one is definitely the coolest one I've ever seen now.
0:11:37 > 0:11:38It's also probably the most useful
0:11:38 > 0:11:42cos if you get lost, you can find yourself on the map on your face.
0:11:44 > 0:11:47Job done for today. Clinic closed.
0:11:47 > 0:11:48SIREN WAILS
0:11:48 > 0:11:50Still to come...
0:11:50 > 0:11:52Time to find out what it's like to be first at the scene
0:11:52 > 0:11:54of a medical emergency.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57We take you to the front line with paramedics saving lives.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Stop the bleeding!
0:11:59 > 0:12:02We show you what to do in a medical emergency.
0:12:02 > 0:12:06- And Chris goes to work on the weirdest ward ever.- Urgh!
0:12:09 > 0:12:12- Remember Alice with her cut nose? - Ooh, painful!
0:12:12 > 0:12:14Let's find out how she's getting on.
0:12:16 > 0:12:20In Manchester, Alice is waiting for surgery on her hooter.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23Alice was being chased by her friend Colette,
0:12:23 > 0:12:25who was pretending to be a witch.
0:12:25 > 0:12:26SHE CACKLES
0:12:26 > 0:12:29As Alice was running away, she tripped and went flying
0:12:29 > 0:12:32across the playground, landing face first.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34Ouch!
0:12:34 > 0:12:37The cut is quite deep so Dr Ricky has decided
0:12:37 > 0:12:41that Alice's nose needs to be stitched up.
0:12:41 > 0:12:45So, it's time for her operation with surgeon Iain Bruce.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49Thanks to a general anaesthetic, Alice will be fast asleep
0:12:49 > 0:12:52and won't feel a thing, and, to protect her face,
0:12:52 > 0:12:54her head is wrapped up like an Egyptian mummy!
0:12:56 > 0:13:00Any bleeding in the wound is stopped by something called cauterising,
0:13:00 > 0:13:03where these tweezers use heat to seal off the blood vessels.
0:13:04 > 0:13:08Look away if you're squeamish, because we can see exactly
0:13:08 > 0:13:10how deep that cut has gone.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14And with a few stitches she's all fixed up.
0:13:14 > 0:13:16All I've done is cleaned it up,
0:13:16 > 0:13:20so there's no dirt underneath the skin, and then I've stitched
0:13:20 > 0:13:24it back, trying to create the shape of the nose as it was before.
0:13:24 > 0:13:28And I'm really hopeful that in a few weeks to a couple
0:13:28 > 0:13:32of months' time you won't be able to tell anything has happened.
0:13:32 > 0:13:35Great news, and a couple of hours later Alice has woken up.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38The doctor's fixed my nose.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40But how does it feel, Alice?
0:13:40 > 0:13:43- It feels nice. - Aw, glad to hear it.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46Bye, Alice. Watch out for those witches!
0:13:46 > 0:13:49WITCH CACKLES
0:13:50 > 0:13:52It's not only emergency departments in hospitals
0:13:52 > 0:13:55- that deal with the unexpected. - That's right, Chris.
0:13:55 > 0:13:59All over the UK there are expert teams ready for action.
0:14:01 > 0:14:05We're on call with the UK emergency services, showing you what
0:14:05 > 0:14:08it's really like on the front line saving lives.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14This is a rapid response car.
0:14:14 > 0:14:16It's one of a fleet of vehicles that respond to
0:14:16 > 0:14:21up to 3,000 emergencies a day here in the West Midlands.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Time to find out what it's like to be first at the scene
0:14:23 > 0:14:26of a medical emergency.
0:14:26 > 0:14:29If you have an accident, this fast medical service is ready to help
0:14:29 > 0:14:3124 hours a day.
0:14:31 > 0:14:36So, I've got my camera. Eric's in the back with his camera.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38We're going to get you as close to the action as we can.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41On call with me is paramedic Jan Vann.
0:14:42 > 0:14:46She can do 20 emergency call outs in a day.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49And a new case is just in.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54So, at the moment, all we know is that three children have been
0:14:54 > 0:14:57involved in a road traffic accident in a car crash and that
0:14:57 > 0:15:01they've been taken home, but there's still some ongoing problem.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03We don't know any more than that yet.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05We need to get there and have a look.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08And just minutes later, we're at the house.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13Inside there are two children, Annie and Ryan,
0:15:13 > 0:15:15waiting to be checked over.
0:15:15 > 0:15:19When did you notice that you had pain in your head?
0:15:19 > 0:15:22I banged my head and it started hurting
0:15:22 > 0:15:24when I was in my dad's car on the way back.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26- So you didn't notice it immediately?- No.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29Yeah, it's strange that you hit your head and you don't notice it?
0:15:29 > 0:15:32- You're so surprised and then later on it starts to hurt.- Yeah.
0:15:32 > 0:15:35After an accident, it's important to get checked over...
0:15:35 > 0:15:36Try and pull me towards you.
0:15:36 > 0:15:40..either by a medic, a doctor, or at your local A&E,
0:15:40 > 0:15:42as some injuries take time to appear.
0:15:42 > 0:15:45So, you've got a little bit of a headache, yeah?
0:15:45 > 0:15:48And has that headache got any worse or has it stayed the same?
0:15:48 > 0:15:50- Sort of the same. - Sort of stayed the same.
0:15:50 > 0:15:54So, what Jan is doing now is making sure that Annie and Ryan
0:15:54 > 0:15:58haven't got any other injuries which are a bit harder to find.
0:15:58 > 0:16:01- Push and pull down.- Urgh!- Brilliant.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04- Gosh, you're strong, ain't ya? Do you go to the gym?- No.
0:16:04 > 0:16:07She's checking their strength to make sure their nerves are right.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09She's checking their hands and their arms.
0:16:09 > 0:16:11Feel me touching you? Feel me touching you?
0:16:11 > 0:16:13She's checking the nerves coming out of their brains.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16Checking eyes and mouth, things like that.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18So far, everything looks really good.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20But it's really nice that Jan's able to get here quickly,
0:16:20 > 0:16:24assess them at home and hopefully spare them a trip to hospital
0:16:24 > 0:16:26and any more investigations.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28No, that looks absolutely fine, so that's good.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30Did you have any pain in your neck or anything like that?
0:16:30 > 0:16:33- It ached a little bit but it was fine.- OK.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36- And you're feeling all right now? - Mm.- OK, good.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38They could, over the next couple of days,
0:16:38 > 0:16:41get some stiffness in their neck, which is called whiplash,
0:16:41 > 0:16:43which happens after an accident.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46Right, this is paracetamol. OK?
0:16:46 > 0:16:48As long as there's no worsening headaches
0:16:48 > 0:16:51and there's no confusion and no vomiting then they should be fine.
0:16:51 > 0:16:54So, Jan's checked out Ryan and Annie and they're both really well
0:16:54 > 0:16:56and they're sitting on the sofa comfortably.
0:16:56 > 0:16:59And a lot of that is because they were both wearing their seatbelts.
0:16:59 > 0:17:01It's a really good result.
0:17:02 > 0:17:05And if you ever have a medical emergency, there are hundreds
0:17:05 > 0:17:10of similar crews on standby around the UK ready to help.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15SIREN WAILS
0:17:15 > 0:17:17Did you know that half the bones in the human body
0:17:17 > 0:17:20are in our hands and feet?
0:17:20 > 0:17:23That's over 100 in total.
0:17:23 > 0:17:26Wow! You'd better look after those fingers and toes, then.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33As far as I'm concerned, you're never too old to play games,
0:17:33 > 0:17:36and one of my favourites is the family classic hide-and-seek.
0:17:36 > 0:17:39But when you play this game you've got to be careful where you hide,
0:17:39 > 0:17:42because this game can be dangerous.
0:17:44 > 0:17:48Don't hide in the bin, Xand. You'll get your foot stuck again.
0:17:48 > 0:17:50That would be rubbish.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52And don't hide behind the TV.
0:17:52 > 0:17:55You're going to get tangled in all the cables again!
0:17:55 > 0:17:58And don't hide in my laundry basket.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01I haven't done last week's washing yet.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04Well, Xand is clearly not in this room.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06I'm going to have to look somewhere else.
0:18:09 > 0:18:13Strange, because this room is normally his favourite place to hide.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16Argh!
0:18:16 > 0:18:19ALARM BELL RINGS
0:18:19 > 0:18:21I knew you'd be in here, Xand.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24- My finger! - Sounds like an injury alert.
0:18:26 > 0:18:31So what should you do if you trap and badly cut your finger?
0:18:31 > 0:18:36A) Use a clean cloth to apply pressure and stop the bleeding?
0:18:36 > 0:18:39B) Send in an army of ants to stitch it back up?
0:18:39 > 0:18:43Or C) Show your teacher and see if they freak out?
0:18:46 > 0:18:48Samira, what do you think the correct answer is?
0:18:48 > 0:18:52A, because if you do any of the other options it wouldn't really
0:18:52 > 0:18:55help the person who has cut their finger.
0:18:55 > 0:18:57Yes, Samira, you've got it!
0:18:59 > 0:19:01And let's show you how.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03- What should I do? - What's the first thing to do?
0:19:03 > 0:19:06- Get a bandage. - Perfect. Get a bandage.
0:19:06 > 0:19:08So, get me a bandage, Dr Chris.
0:19:08 > 0:19:11OK, so, we stick this on to stop the bleeding.
0:19:11 > 0:19:14And you'll need to keep the pressure up until the bleeding stops
0:19:14 > 0:19:16and go to hospital.
0:19:16 > 0:19:18So, who wants to have a go yourselves?
0:19:18 > 0:19:20- ALL:- Me!
0:19:20 > 0:19:23- Ow!- Now remember, we're showing you what to do in an emergency,
0:19:23 > 0:19:26but it's always best to find an adult.
0:19:26 > 0:19:29- Stop the bleeding.- Stop it!
0:19:29 > 0:19:32- Thank you. - So, what do we need to do next?
0:19:32 > 0:19:35- Take the case to hospital. - Do you want to get him to hospital?
0:19:35 > 0:19:37Ne-naw, ne-naw, ne-naw!
0:19:37 > 0:19:38So that's it.
0:19:38 > 0:19:42Use a clean cloth to apply pressure and stop the bleeding.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45And if the fingertip has come off, put it in a clean bag,
0:19:45 > 0:19:49then put the bag on ice, tell an adult and take the patient and the
0:19:49 > 0:19:52fingertip to hospital or call 999.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55Right, Chris, ready or not here I come.
0:19:55 > 0:19:58He's definitely not in here.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01He's so good at this game.
0:20:07 > 0:20:09Huh, look at that!
0:20:09 > 0:20:11I didn't know Mr Grumbles liked playing Egyptian mummies.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14You're doing a fabulous job of dressing him up as one.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16Chris, this is no time for joking.
0:20:16 > 0:20:19Mr Grumbles has hurt his arm and I'm bandaging him up.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21In that case, you're doing a terrible job of it.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24You should have come for a spot of nurse training with me.
0:20:24 > 0:20:28- A spot of what-whatting? - Time for Investigation Ouch!
0:20:31 > 0:20:34Welcome to the weirdest hospital ward you'll ever see.
0:20:34 > 0:20:39These patients aren't just sick, they're not even human.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42This is the nurse training room at City University in London,
0:20:42 > 0:20:46and it's just like a normal ward, except all the patients are dummies.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49But these aren't just any dummies, they're smart dummies.
0:20:49 > 0:20:53To train the student nurses they've been programmed with real
0:20:53 > 0:20:56illnesses, just like real patients.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58Just a bit...creepier!
0:20:59 > 0:21:01Urgh!
0:21:03 > 0:21:07Before they can become fully fledged nurses, the students have to show
0:21:07 > 0:21:09they can deal with all kinds of different situations.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11And these dummies are...
0:21:12 > 0:21:16..these dummies are the key to putting them through their paces.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21Because these dummies are smart enough to show the symptoms
0:21:21 > 0:21:23of all kinds of different illnesses.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27They have pulses, make vomiting sounds...
0:21:27 > 0:21:28DUMMY RETCHES
0:21:28 > 0:21:30..and can even talk to you.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33- DUMMY:- I'm so sick.
0:21:33 > 0:21:34Even though Chris is a doctor,
0:21:34 > 0:21:38he's never trained as a nurse until today.
0:21:38 > 0:21:42Shouldn't he be dressed for the part?
0:21:42 > 0:21:43Well, that's more like it!
0:21:43 > 0:21:46- How are you doing, Ali? - Hi, Chris, how are you?
0:21:46 > 0:21:48Training alongside Chris is Alison.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50Together they'll be caring for Jasper.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53Nurse Melissa will be monitoring their every move,
0:21:53 > 0:21:56from how they take blood pressure to their bedside manner,
0:21:56 > 0:21:58as well as controlling how the dummies feel.
0:21:58 > 0:22:03But can Chris hack it as a nurse? First test - taking a pulse.
0:22:05 > 0:22:08- How long do you measure it for? - One minute.- A minute?
0:22:08 > 0:22:11My system is to do it for six seconds and multiply by ten,
0:22:11 > 0:22:15which is a lot less accurate, so I make the pulse about 85.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17I got 82.
0:22:17 > 0:22:20- You got 82, so I'm not that far off. - It's close enough.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22It's not how we're told to do it but close enough.
0:22:22 > 0:22:24Ooh, not a good start, Chris.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26I think we're going to ramp it up a bit.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28I think we're going to make Jasper get really unwell.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30DUMMY RETCHES
0:22:30 > 0:22:32Oh, he's being sick!
0:22:32 > 0:22:34What shall we do? Shall we sit him up?
0:22:34 > 0:22:36We should maybe remove his oxygen mask...
0:22:36 > 0:22:38- Oh, yeah, cos that'll be in the way. - ..and I'll go get a bowl.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40Here we go. There, there, Jasper.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42All right, Jasper, there you go.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44We've got a vomit bowl for you if you're sick again.
0:22:44 > 0:22:46- DUMMY RETCHES - Oh, here we go.
0:22:46 > 0:22:48Second time round he's caught the pretend puke,
0:22:48 > 0:22:50but he's made a big mistake.
0:22:50 > 0:22:52Any ideas what it is?
0:22:52 > 0:22:55Chris, we should probably have some apron and gloves on right now.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58Oh no! I completely forgot gloves and apron,
0:22:58 > 0:23:02so I'd be covered in vomit and my hands would be covered,
0:23:02 > 0:23:04and that means any other patients I touched,
0:23:04 > 0:23:07I might give them an infection that Jasper had.
0:23:07 > 0:23:08Not good practice.
0:23:08 > 0:23:12Oh dear, Jasper is covered in imaginary vomit.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14And to make the final test more realistic,
0:23:14 > 0:23:17Nurse Melissa is sending in his pretend sons.
0:23:17 > 0:23:19Chris will need to look after his patient
0:23:19 > 0:23:22and reassure his fake family.
0:23:22 > 0:23:26So what have you guys done to him? He was all right yesterday.
0:23:26 > 0:23:29Well, he's suddenly got a bit worse. He started vomiting.
0:23:29 > 0:23:32We don't quite know what's going on but...
0:23:32 > 0:23:35Can't you give him something to stop the sickness?
0:23:35 > 0:23:37Yeah, we'll do that. Well, we started the fluid.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39It's difficult cos we just need
0:23:39 > 0:23:41a bit more space around the patient to do the work,
0:23:41 > 0:23:44and I think, obviously, Jasper's covered in vomit.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47Yeah, it's maybe a bit distressing for you to see your dad like this.
0:23:47 > 0:23:49Jasper, would you like relatives around?
0:23:49 > 0:23:51DUMMY: No.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53So would you like to take a seat outside and we'll come and get you?
0:23:53 > 0:23:56- Will somebody come and get us? - We'll come and get you.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59- Yeah, of course.- OK. Thanks a lot. - See you in a bit.
0:23:59 > 0:24:00Hm, they were a tough crowd!
0:24:00 > 0:24:03Looks like Jasper wanted to get rid of his family as much as we did.
0:24:03 > 0:24:08Test over. Chris has been put through his paces like a real trainee nurse,
0:24:08 > 0:24:10but did he pass?
0:24:10 > 0:24:13- So how do you think I did? - I think you did OK.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15I think the pulse, I was not quite sure about.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17I thought I'd get in trouble for that.
0:24:17 > 0:24:21And obviously, no aprons and gloves until Ali remembered.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23Can't believe I forgot that.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25The relatives, though, I thought you did really well.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27I think you worked well together.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29You reassured them and they seemed to leave happy.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32And Jasper's obviously much happier now...
0:24:32 > 0:24:35So, they may look a bit creepy but, remember,
0:24:35 > 0:24:39these dummies are helping nurses to help get you fixed up.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41Listen, you've been watching everything today,
0:24:41 > 0:24:42how do you honestly think I did?
0:24:42 > 0:24:44DUMMY RETCHES
0:24:44 > 0:24:46All right, I'll get a bowl.
0:24:46 > 0:24:48Don't forget the apron and gloves, Chris!
0:24:51 > 0:24:54Our next patient thought today would be another normal day.
0:24:54 > 0:24:57- But he was wrong, and now he's in A&E.- Let's meet him.
0:24:57 > 0:25:01In Manchester, seven-year-old Tyler has come in with his great-gran.
0:25:01 > 0:25:05- What have you done, Tyler? - I burnt my hand.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08- You burnt your hand? Oh, dear. - It's a bit painful.
0:25:08 > 0:25:12The burn has been wrapped in clingfilm by a nurse to protect it.
0:25:12 > 0:25:16- But how did it happen, Tyler? - I was trying to make myself a brew.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18Ah, a cup of tea. Two sugars, please.
0:25:18 > 0:25:23I really, really like brews. I love dunking biscuits into it.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26My favourite biscuit is a custard cream.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28Nice one, Tyler. Sounds yummy.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31In fact, Xand, it's that custard cream craving
0:25:31 > 0:25:33that got him into this mess in the first place.
0:25:35 > 0:25:39- Tyler is a big tea drinker. - Ooh, me too!
0:25:39 > 0:25:41He loves nothing more than putting his feet up with a brew
0:25:41 > 0:25:45- and dunking his custard creams in it. - Ooh, me too!
0:25:45 > 0:25:47Because Tyler's only seven,
0:25:47 > 0:25:50he asked his big brother James to fix him a cuppa,
0:25:50 > 0:25:52but James said no.
0:25:52 > 0:25:54Brother love, eh?
0:25:54 > 0:25:56So, Tyler set about making his own cup of tea
0:25:56 > 0:26:00but the kettle was full and heavy.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02As Tyler poured, the kettle slipped
0:26:02 > 0:26:05and the boiling water went all over his hand.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07Ouch!
0:26:07 > 0:26:11Here's Dr Chuks Nwulia to take a look at that painful palm.
0:26:11 > 0:26:13- Hello, Tyler, how are you? - I'm all right.
0:26:13 > 0:26:18- So, what's been happening to you today?- I've burnt myself.- OK.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21Can you feel any pains or tingling in your hands, like pins?
0:26:21 > 0:26:24- Yeah.- And where are you feeling it? - In my thumb.
0:26:24 > 0:26:27Can you feel me touching you? You can? You can feel anything.
0:26:27 > 0:26:32Your skin is made up of layers of skin cells, fat, tissue
0:26:32 > 0:26:33and blood vessels.
0:26:33 > 0:26:37When you burn or scald yourself, the deeper these layers get damaged
0:26:37 > 0:26:39the worse the burn will be.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41More minor burns only affect the top layer
0:26:41 > 0:26:45and that's what's happened to Tyler's hand.
0:26:45 > 0:26:47But it still hurts!
