Biologist Reacts to THE GOOD DOCTOR Pilot Episode | Explains the Biology

In this pilot episode of The Good Doctor, we learn about the respiratory system as well as the cardiovascular system.

We explore topics like what happens when their damage to the internal jugular vein as well as with a tension pneumothorax.

I explain how increased intrathoracic pressure can lead to venous distension and how a DIY one-way valve can relieve the intrathoracic pressure that results from a tension pneumothorax.

If that seemed like a different language, go ahead and watch the video. It'll all make sense then ;)
