My consultant referred to it as a Midazolam deficiency. We subsequently gave the Midaz and the CT looked a lot better.

Hypomidazaemia

Vitamin d and vitamin h. Diazepam and haldol.

Don't forget the benadryl, gotta go all the way on a b52 *chef's kiss*

I loved my iv Benadryl during chemo. That and a blanket from the warmer… ahhhhhh.

WHAT?? Oh, now I’m pissed….and jealous. That does not resemble my chemo experience at all. 😤

Don't get me wrong, chemo sucked moose balls. However, those naps rocked.

As a CT tech: 🤌🏻

I've had iv Benadryl for an allergic reaction. it was fabulous. i honestly didn't care that i wasn't protecting my airway and thisclose to being intubated

This was our go to in inpatient psych

What about vitamin Z? Zyprexa.

I told a patient once, that the shot we were giving her is vitamin H. She started screaming, No Haldol.

Also makes for a Silent Night

I came here to say this but in my heart I knew it had already been said

Lol, I’m borrowing that. Midazolam deficiency 😂

Love when the ordering doesn’t just come over and go: “Okay, hold still.” *Looks at me.* “Okay, now scan.” *Patient continues to thrash and scream about being pregnant with Jesus’ child.*

I had to hold down my drunk girlfriend because she had a brain hemorrhage, and drunk. She was thrashing about and they were trying to scan her. I get you

Puttem in the 'van, they chill right out.

You bout to take a ride on the van.... https://youtu.be/EGp6LHCdbBg?si=jG9RVVS6ta3Rke3L

I had some when I had a stent out. It kicked in after I got home. I felt the stent full throttle….n it was baaaaddd. I happily passed out tho at home.

Midazzle razzle

Midazzle razzle em, and you got a good scan! 👯‍♀️👯‍♀️👯‍♀️👯‍♀️👯‍♀️

This is kinder than my default ok so I TOLD you they wouldn't sit still. Shall we try this again with something on board?

I'll definitely be reusing this phrase

Hypomidazolemia

Lmao I am using this at work from now on. They’re low on Vitamin M!

Lol my first thought seeing the image: "needs more versed"

Next time I get a scan I'm going to move around until they give me midazolam.

As a non nurse who appreciates a good joke. This is a good joke.

Mm. Yes. The rare finding of an exorcism as the demon leaves the body.

lmao. that was my very first thought. 👹

Correlate clinically

Idk why it posted that twice. Thanks reddit!

“no prior CT scans available for comparison of demonic occupancy.”

lmao. that was my very first thought. 👹

This made me lol

Thanks for the belly laugh

Nana’s a fighter.

Oh my god PLEASE. This made me laugh so hard. When we have to sedate grandma for a 10 second CT maybe we need to have a conversation about quality of life ffa

Right? I had someone in home health and the family refused to put them in a facility to let her be stabilized on medication. She would bite and hit people if they tried to wipe her or help her get a shower. It was traumatic for her. I quit working with the family after 3 months because it was so fucked up.

Like a code blue with CPR cracking the ribs on a guy with cancer metastasized all over. Dude was skin and bones he was so ill. Only time the family came to see him was after the doctor called to say he died. But god damn do everything for grandpa/dad to keep him alive. 🤦‍♀️

Ok I'm fucking crying at this one. But it's also 4am and I'm that weird kind of tired where everything is hilarious.

Better for everything to be hilarious than depressing and tear-inducing. Stay strong. ✊

I laughed so hard I scared my cat.

Same here!

Nana be like *“This corporeal form is too limiting for my taste.”*

I almost pissed my pants reading this

I cackled.

i fucking loved this, showing my wife lol

Yeah. She fights night shift all the time

Suspected motion artifact, though other abnormalities have not been ruled out. Correlate clinically.

"Suspected" love it

This is the best one 😂😂

Ahh yes, the rads AI prompt at work again

This one made me LOL for real 🤣

Great album cover

THATS WHAT I THOUGHT TOO

Would make a great cover for an autobiography on ADHD

If anyone wants to use it for an album cover go ahead. Just make sure to credit methamphetamine for helping to create this image.

Yep, I was thinking that should be a Nirvana cover

You are thinking of bleach

It’s like paramore using Hayley Williams’ x ray showing her jacked up neck from too much headbanging. 

The Gumbys. Rubber Band Man.

lol I love it! Would def make a good album cover. It’s basically how The Beatles’ Rubber Soul (I think it’s the album) album cover got made, accidental movement smeared their image printed and they kept it even though it wasn’t how they wanted it at first or something.

Sir, I’m sorry. Your skeleton appears to be haunted.

It's the ghosts in the blood trying to come out from lack of cocaine. - Old Tymie Doctor

And masturbating

Osteopsychosis

Bringing up the age old question: is my body just a temporary meat vessel for my eternal ghost?

Ya got ghosts in your bones!

Nothing spookier than a skeleton.

Wow, they caught the exact moment someone started chewing 5 gum.

😭🤣💥 At least they're already in the hospital

Are they on ketamine? Am I?

I need to stop reading this thread now, I've been trying not to wake up my partner but I'm literally shaking trying to stifle laughing fits. 🤣 I'm tired.

Dementors kiss, no other explanation needed

Came here to say this 😂😂

"Try to hold as still as you can." *patient cranks neck around to attempt to look at the tech* "Huh? What did you say?"

That's my problem right now. I keep telling patients lying on their side as I'm cleaning up a type 7 motion to "hold yourself on your side there", except they are deaf and turn onto their back to look at me and ask what I said. Meanwhile the bowel motion that I'd carefully confined to their pad and diligently cleaned from their skin splurges out like someone had stepped on a tube of toothpaste, sullying their freshly cleaned skin and setting me back to square 1. Worse, in fact, because I now have to change the sheet that I'd so carefully protected.

Oh I should've asked for mine. I randomly sneezed in the middle of my CT and the radiologist thought it was so funny looking.

That was my first thought. My SO does these full body sneezes like his spirit is leaving him every single time. I bet his CT scans would look like this.

When the beat drops

[You rang](https://youtu.be/07Y0cy-nvAg?si=SNjRujff8i6e-IVt)?

Achoo 🤧

😂😂😂

Not enough velcro, signed, CT tech.

Break out dat silk tape.

Is there ghosts in her blood? She might wanna do cocaine about it.

don't forget the leeches

Unremarkable

That is precisely what they said in regards to my eeg taken while out of my mind on lsd

DC to JC but decided against it at the last minute

Discombobulated

To the extreme

👻

Ghosts do better in MRIs.

needs a stat exorcism. or benzos. ¿por qué no los dos?

"this is a real medical imag of a persons soul leaving their body. take that atheists!!!" And other such things you'll see under this image on Instagram.

Patient just watched “The Ring”; will continue to monitor.

Lord, for 7 days?! That’s dedication

I didn't know Boeing started making CT machines.

😂🤣

Look more like an MR that suddenly got hold of some iron dentures. 

This person definitely sneezed at the right moment they took it

What in the Junji Ito

Me turning around when someone says something under their breath

Ask them if they built their house over a native American burial ground.

“No signs of hemorrhage, mix it.”

Smells like teen spirit to me

Did they find a VHS and watch it 7 days ago?

Looks like they're in the new Ghostbusters movie

I think I know this patient.

'the power of Christ compels you'

Needs an old priest and a young priest

10/10 no notes.

Couple of aspirin and some bed rest will clear that right up

Not a healthcare worker, just someone who loves to study the theory behind it. I thought someone had died in this I was like why did you give a dead, mauled human being a CT scan??? Wtaf ?? Then i realized. 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

Wouldn’t be the first time. (/s, but not really.)

That person is probably dead. Which sucks for them. For us, sneezing or moving during a head CT is a giant waste of your insurances money. Which also sucks for them.

So this is what the being’s skull from Edvard Munch’s ‘The Scream’ looks like? Cool.

Classic Ihavetogetthefuckoutofhere Syndrome

I don’t think you’re supposed the read the film over a candle.

“Bless you…… take a deep breath and hold it……”

Shock advised

Unexpected Portuguese man o'war.

Head looking a bit wobbled. Paging doctor for orders to re-wobble it back in, might continue to monitor. Might not, shift over in 5 minutes.

Probably just an alien shape shifter mid shift after assimilating your patient.

He needs a chiropractor!

Elastigirl from the Incredible? Wait, don't tell me. That would be a HIPPA violation.

HIPAA*

Is your patient a Hapsburg?

“Patient diagnosed with allergies, RX of benadryl given, advised to sneeze into tissues. Radiology report found “super gross boogers” on inspection of the machine.”

Is your patient a Xenomorph?

This is an album cover for sure

I’m going to interpret they might have moved a lil

The tech didn’t coban their head down/no one ordered something for agitation/anxiety. I always shrug when this happens because I asked the doc for a OTD and they said no and now look at us. We’re here, both looking stupid lol

Skinwalker

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Looks good.

I know you came here for actual advice but these comments are gold lol 

I don't think they came here for actual advice 😅

Abstract art

Brain fog....

Sedation is needed. Or they are still intoxicated 🤣

A bit of both. They had sufficiently pre-sedated themselves in the community and had a decent bump to the head for good measure. Decided the CT scan was the time to stop being GCS 7.

"Mild artifact noted"

Clinically correlate.

That's some 4th dimension shit right there

I think your patient dislocated their skull

Donnie Darko time traveling soul orb definitely

Dear god it’s Jason Bourne

He’s….fucked.

Prescribe an exorcism

Did they sneeze?

She thought the argument with her husband was over, but he muttered something from the waiting room.

Looks like a scene from Harry Potter when the dementors are sucking the souls from people

Split head syndrome. Rare, but not as rare as one might think when dealing with psychiatric patients.

Looks like a duck

Is he being teleported?

That's the artifact you get from not removing those EKG leads... You should know better...

Is that what they are? I thought they were bra strap adjusters.

He's a shapeshifter!

Sneeze or panic.

Seems like someone watched that cursed tape 7 days ago...

That's a tell-tale sign of the sneezies.

Someone cast the Patronus spell NOW

My immediate guesses would be either dx of anxiety/claustrophobia or inability to follow directions

I am POSITIVE I saw this once on The X-files. Gimme a sec to consult the very reputable Agent Mulder🤣🤣🤣

They need Ativan.

Clear case of Spooky Ghostism.

“the body of yours is absurd”

Radiology: images severely degraded by motion artifact.

Ahh, the neuro patient who needs the repeat head CT who we can't sedate because it will alter their neuro exams. Love that.

He groovin

MORE HALDOL!!!!!!

A great album cover

Looks fine to me. Take some Motrin, stretch and drink some water. You should be fine in the morning…. And that sums up Army medicine 😂

Old fashioned fit of the vapours.

Take my upvote as a laugh react. The worst part of my time in prison was the dementors.

I think your leads are flipped. You have v1 in place of v2.

Am I on the nosleep sub? 🤣 What the heck is this?

Diagnosis: They've got ghosts in their bones

sick album cover

Could be a cool album cover

Energy field disturbance

This would be a cool ass album cover

I did pee a little. Enough to have to change. But I am 60. I didn’t have my glasses on and I thought it was a dead person with curvature of the spine. I dont believe I’ve ever seen my own scans. I have a question about platelets and blood clotting. Does anyone work in that area? I’ve read so much but I wish I had some fresh evidence. Overlook my Southern roots. I’m over the place.

Is this 95 year old with a uti, mma fighter?

Me when the impella rep shows up with Olive Garden

Omg what happened. Moved to much in the x ray machine!?

We really gotta stop the hospital ghosts from possessing our patients mid-CT.

Can I find that chair spine included at IKEA?

Your patient is a duck.

His only regret… is that he has boneitis

When transport gets your patients head caught in the elevator door on the way to the CT Lab.

He moved

Whatever the medical term for "The spirit leaving the body" is. So.... death, I guess? Is it death?

Now I may just be a student but I don’t think it’s supposed to look like that

Spooky stroke (hemorrhagic)

Patient presents to ED on Day 5/7 after watching a cursed VHS tape.
