A bad answer from a Med student

[Einna]

Okay, I just need someone with a little medical knowledge here. Even if it's just from watchin too much Holby City or something.

I have a young character in Med school. I need some questions that he could be asked...just the text book kind...and some wrong answers that he can give. Any questions, and any answers. At least one of the "Your patient is dead" sort.

Help. Please?

Sort of like 'Okay, pain in chest. What could this lead to?' and like 'toes being cut off?'

Read the title and thought House :D

"Your patient's lips are cyanotic and he appears to be going into sepsis. He has a fever of 103 degrees, and you have only enough time to run one test before you must operate. What do you choose?"
"Umm...run a biopsy?"
"Biopsy what?"
"His...lips?"

If there was a hernia in your patients back, how would you go about removing it?

uhh... with a knife?

There's an episode of House M.D. (awesome show) where he's giving a talk to a bunch of med students. Numerous parts of that episode could give you the line you need. Actually most of the show could do that. Also, you should go watch it because it's awesome. =0p
