While watching this series I have grown to enjoy it for its spin on the medical field and its semi realisim. I am not one to nit pick but while whatching episode 8, I witnessed two misstakes that should have been caught immediatly.
1. While intubating Hanks patient. He was holding the Laryngascope in the wrong hand.
2. While inserting the endotracheal tube (advanced airway) He inserted it upside down.
However in the next scene the EMS personnel save the day and Bag the patient. I am sure they corrected the Docs mistake :)wink .

Yes I have been in the medical field for over 20 years so its hard not to see the little things like that on tv.
Its only a show so enjoy. wink.gif

Well, that's awfully nit-picky, isn't it?

Just kidding. When you have knowledge of a subject and then see things done incorrectly, it's hard not to notice and maybe be a little annoyed. Or it might be fun for you to see how many mistakes you can find.
