In an episode of Untold Stories of the ER, there was a doctor who was treating a patient for some mysterious bleeding around the pelvic region of her body. Now you think that the medical team would just be able to do the necessary tests and move forward with the examination. However, there was an additional challenge. The Patient’s husband was the director of the emergency department and as a doctor himself, he thought that he knew exactly what was going on with his wife. The husband kept arguing with the doctor taking care of his wife and saying that the tests were not necessary because it was a GI bleed according to his experience. The problem with the situation is that the husband is creating noise that is interfering with the doctor’s ability to talk directly with the patient and find out further information with her problem. This barrier negatively impacts the patient because it doesn’t allow things to be done in a timely manner and could result in possible fatal consequences. It also doesn’t allow the patient to be involved in their own care and could make them feel as if they’re not valued. The situation could make the physician frustrated to the point where he can’t focus and thus delay getting results on a possible diagnosis. It may also give the physician a reputation for not listening and valuing the patient, which could impact his clientele and livelihood. However, it was clearly seen that the doctor valued the patient and had her best interest in mind because her kept telling the husband with all do politeness, the husband needed to let him talk to his patient to get a better understanding of what was going on, so that the could come up with a solution to treat her. Finally, the husband complied and it turns out the patient just ate too many beets as part of a new diet.
