A breast examination performed after breast implant surgery is shown in this clinical video. The recording demonstrates how the breasts are assessed during follow-up examination after augmentation. It is an educational resource for clinicians and students interested in plastic surgery follow-up care.
This educational video presents circumcision — the surgical removal of the foreskin of the penis — showing how the procedure is performed and the anatomical structures involved. Shared for medical and surgical education. Educational only — not medical advice.
Medical imaging captured during sexual activity is presented in this educational video, showing how internal anatomy changes, as recorded in published MRI research. It is shared for anatomy and physiology education. Educational only — not medical advice.
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.
Identify the anatomy and explain the physiology of the scrotum on diagrams and sonograms.
Describe and demonstrate the protocol for sonographic scanning of the scrotum.
Identify and describe sonographic images of congenital abnormalities of the scrotum.
Identify and describe sonographic images of pathologies of the scrotum.
Identify and describe sonographic images of extratesticular disease processes.
Identify the anatomy and explain the physiology of the prostate on diagrams and sonograms.
Describe and demonstrate the protocol for transabdominal and endorectal sonographic scanning of the prostate.
Identify and describe sonographic images of benign and malignant pathologies of the prostate, including benign hyperplasia, prostatitis, carcinoma, and calculi.
Explain the technique for prostate biopsy.
Define the criteria for an ultrasound appearance of prostate tumor staging.
Explain the technique for radiation seed implantation.
Explain the Patient Privacy Rule (HIPAA) and Patient Safety Act (see reference).
Careful observation of a baby's movements is the subject of this paediatric teaching clip. The narration looks for symmetry, stereotyped movements and postural preferences, and shows a baby who moves one arm much less than the other. It places simple observation within wider developmental and neurological assessment of young children.
This paediatric teaching clip shows playful testing of muscle strength and tone in children. The examiner has the child pull against the fingertips and stand on tiptoe, demonstrates the Gower sign in muscular dystrophy, and uses the pull-to-sit test in a baby with low tone. It is a study aid for the paediatric neurological examination.
Examination of a femoral hernia is shown in this brief surgical examination clip. The recording presents how the groin area is assessed when a femoral hernia is suspected. It is an educational example for students learning hernia examination technique. It can support classroom teaching and independent study in this subject area.
On a teaching model, this demonstration shows intra-uterine device insertion. The narration follows sterile loading of the IUD, examination of the uterus and cervix, speculum placement, antiseptic and tenaculum use, release of the device and trimming its string. It is a short skills reference in Gynecology.
A breech birth is the birth of a baby from a breech presentation. In the breech presentation the baby enters the birth canal with the buttocks or feet first as opposed to the normal head first presentation.
There are either three or four main categories of breech births, depending upon the source:
* Frank breech - the baby's bottom comes first, and his or her legs are flexed at the hip and extended at the knees (with feet near the ears). 65-70% of breech babies are in the frank breech position.
* Complete breech - the baby's hips and knees are flexed so that the baby is sitting crosslegged, with feet beside the bottom.
* Footling breech - one or both feet come first, with the bottom at a higher position. This is rare at term but relatively common with premature fetuses.
* Kneeling breech - the baby is in a kneeling position, with one or both legs extended at the hips and flexed at the knees. This is extremely rare, and is excluded from many classifications.
As in labour with a baby in a normal head-down position, uterine contractions typically occur at regular intervals and gradually cause the cervix to become thinner and to open. In the more common breech presentations, the baby’s bottom (rather than feet or knees) is what is first to descend through the maternal pelvis and emerge from the vagina.
At the beginning of labour, the baby is generally in an oblique position, facing either the right or left side of the mother's back. As the baby's bottom is the same size in the term baby as the baby's head. Descent is thus as for the presenting fetal head and delay in descent is a cardinal sign of possible problems with the delivery of the head.
In order to begin the birth, internal rotation needs to occur. This happens when the mother's pelvic floor muscles cause the baby to turn so that it can be born with one hip directly in front of the other. At this point the baby is facing one of the mother's inner thighs. Then, the shoulders follow the same path as the hips did. At this time the baby usually turns to face the mother's back. Next occurs external rotation, which is when the shoulders emerge as the baby’s head enters the maternal pelvis. The combination of maternal muscle tone and uterine contractions cause the baby’s head to flex, chin to chest. Then the back of the baby's head emerges and finally the face.
Due to the increased pressure during labour and birth, it is normal for the baby's leading hip to be bruised and genitalia to be swollen. Babies who assumed the frank breech position in utero may continue to hold their legs in this position for some days after birth.
Part 1 of this educational video shows the dilatation and curettage (D&C) procedure, a gynecological operation used to sample or clear the uterine lining. It demonstrates the instruments and steps involved for clinicians and students. Procedure education only — not personal medical advice.
An older clinical recording, this video shows how an enema is administered, demonstrating the equipment and the steps involved in the procedure. It serves as a clinical-skills demonstration for students and caregivers. Procedure education only — not personal medical advice.
Male urethral catheterization with a Foley catheter is demonstrated in this educational video, using sterile technique from preparation through placement. It is a practical clinical-skills resource for nursing and medical students learning urinary catheter care. Procedure education only — not personal medical advice.
This childbirth video records labor and birth in high definition. The recording presents the stages of delivery in an educational context for viewers learning about how the birth process unfolds. The footage follows the delivery from labor through the birth.
This video demonstrates the male urogenital examination, including the external genital examination and the digital rectal examination. It is presented as a clinical-skills reference for the well-male health assessment taught in medical training. The examination is used to check the prostate and detect abnormalities.
A newborn with ectopia cordis — a rare congenital condition in which the heart is located outside the chest — is presented in this neonatal case video. Shared for medical education on rare congenital anomalies. This video shows a seriously ill infant; viewer discretion is advised.
