This video records a real vaginal birth of triplets in a hospital delivery room, filmed as it happens. There is no narration; the audio is the natural sound of the room, with the care team coaching the mother through each baby in turn, including one breech baby. It is shared as a documentary record of a multiple birth.
This clinical-skills demonstration shows the male genitourinary examination. The examiner inspects and palpates the penis and scrotum, assesses the testes and epididymis, and finishes with the inguinal hernia check as the patient coughs, while the narrator emphasises putting the patient at ease. It is a study resource for clinical examination training.
Urinary catheter insertion in a female infant patient is demonstrated in this clinical-skills video, using the sterile technique applied in pediatric care. It shows catheter placement as performed by trained clinical staff. This is a training resource for nursing and medical students. Procedure education only — not personal medical advice.
Colonoscopy is a test that allows your doctor to look at the inner lining of your large intestine (rectum and colon). He or she uses a thin, flexible tube called a colonoscope to look at the colon. A colonoscopy helps find ulcers, colon polyps, tumors, and areas of inflammation or bleeding.
Sex reassignment surgery for male-to-female involves reshaping the male genitals into a form with the appearance of, and, as far as possible, the function of female genitalia. Prior to any surgeries, patients usually undergo hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and, depending on the age at which HRT begins, facial hair removal. There are associated surgeries patients may elect to, including facial feminization surgery, breast augmentation, and various other procedures
It is held in place with a balloon at the end, which is filled with sterile water to prevent the catheter from being removed from the bladder. The urine drains through the catheter tube into a bag, which is emptied when full. The procedure to insert a catheter is called catheterization.
A narrated 3D animation of a normal vaginal birth, stage by stage. It follows the baby head-down in the uterus through the first stage of labour - regular contractions and cervical dilation to 10 centimetres - then the stronger second-stage contractions, the waters breaking, crowning, and the delivery of the head and body. A clear visual introduction to how childbirth progresses, for students, expectant parents, and the curious. Educational content only - not medical advice.
Women are routinely invited to have cervical screening tests (also called smear tests). The tests are done to prevent cervical cancer, not to diagnose cancer. During each test some cells are removed from the neck of the womb (cervix), with a plastic brush. The cells are examined under a microscope to look for early changes that, if ignored and not treated, could develop into cancer of the cervix. You are very unlikely to develop cervical cancer if you have regular cervical screening tests at the times advised by your doctor. If the test shows any abnormality, you will have treatment to stop you ever getting cancer of the cervix. So, an abnormal test does not mean you have cancer. It means you should have some treatment to stop you getting cancer.
In this recording, a first-time mother gives birth in a birthing pool, with the delivery documented from the final contractions through the baby's arrival. Water births are supported by a midwife or birth team, as shown here. It offers expectant parents and students a realistic view of the method. For learning purposes only — not medical advice.
A nursing student performs a complete head-to-toe assessment on a volunteer. The recording covers vital signs, BMI and vision checks, then systematic inspection and palpation from head and sinuses through the body systems to the spine and neck. Running about twenty-eight minutes, it is a full worked example for examination practice.
