This is very great lecture because we always see people rushing to psychiatric clinic or hospital before even examining the patient when it comes to altered mental state. i have seen this several times in psychiatric hospital where i am based since about 4 years now. Thank for this excellent presentation

A story I heard from a lecture was when a heat stroke patient (which also causes Altered Mental Status) we cooled down enough that he was back to normal. He then proposed to his fiancee afterwards. All the male healthcare members thought "ehhh, he's still altered".

Great video! I work as a Mental Health professional in a jail system. It can be difficult to determine the causes of AMS and this video offers a good concise explanation of the variables involved.

As a mental health professional, don't you find that phrase "altered mental status" practically useless?

Can you do a video on CVAs? And TIAs? I would love to see those broken down and techniques of diagnosis and management.

Bizarre concept given how ambiguous it is. Is the term really very useful beyond saying "They are not thinking clearly?"

I have hypoglycemia. It has not made me faint, but it sometimes makes me stupid. My liver does dump sugar, I believe, but super late, like 3 hours later. Blood tests say I am not diabetic.

Nothing like introducing POLITICS into the ER environment. Perhaps we need a seminar on Caregiver TDS ( Trump Derangement Syndrome) If you have ever altered mental status presenting in a patient, and struggle to diagnose and treat, you would not be so flip and unprofessional in your barb remarks.

These seem like dynamite lecture videos but In cautions in that nobody from the channel answers questions. Will this be the same if we subscribe to the videos?

I have to say this- not having a nurse or PCT to check a BGL is NOT a valid reason for not having the BGL. There is no reason a doctor, NP, or PA can’t perform a finger stick.
