[00:05:14]Okay.

[00:05:16]Right.

[00:05:19]Now, because it was an operation on your brain, uh I do need to do some checks just to make sure all your cognit cognitive um functions are still working as they should be.

[00:05:37]So, we're going to do that in a moment.

[00:05:40]First, I'm going to take your blood pressure. All right.

[00:05:49]Okay. So, let me put my machine just here.

[00:05:57]And this is going to go around the top of your arm. And it's just going to feel a little tight, but it won't be too tight. Okay.

[00:06:11]Okay, that's just like smile.

[00:06:26]Is that okay?

[00:06:33]Just wait a couple of seconds.

[00:06:39]All right, that's all looking good as well.

[00:06:55]Does your head hurt? No.

[00:06:58]All right, for now, just let me know. We are putting some medication through the drip as well. So, this will be helping you feel a little better. Yeah, it's got things to stop infection and things as well. So, okay. So, we're going to do a couple of tests now for your brain. Make sure it's all working as it should be. So, I'm just going to take a little look in your eyes.

[00:07:36]Pupils dilating as they should be. So, that's good.

[00:07:46]Very good.

[00:07:50]Can you keep your head still and just follow the light for me?

[00:08:09]Very good.

[00:08:16]And then can you look at the tip of my pen here?

[00:08:22]And again, don't move your head. Just follow it with your eyes.

[00:08:28]Close further away.

[00:08:37]And now, can you focus just on my nose and nothing else? So, don't be distracted or put off by the pen.

[00:08:53]Okay.

[00:14:13]Yes.

[00:14:18]All right.

[00:14:20]Now, I'm going to make sure that your brain is still talking to the rest of your body.

[00:14:28]Yes. So, what I'm going to do is use my little hammer tool. Not very hard, don't worry. And I'm going to use it on each knee. So, if you can just shuffle up to the edge of the bed for me. Yep. Just shuffle. Keep going. Keep going. Okay.

[00:14:43]Just let your legs dangle. Don't tense them or anything. All right.

[00:14:49]Okay. We don't need to do anything. You don't have to think about this one because your body should do it itself.

[00:14:54]Okay.

[00:14:56]I'm just going to knock on your right knee first.

[00:15:03]Good. And now your left knee.

[00:15:09]Yep. It's acting as it should be.

[00:15:16]And now if you can just have your arms down by your side and just let them flop. I'm going to just take your arm and I just want you to tell me if you can feel me wherever I touch on your arm. Okay. All right. Start.

[00:15:34]Good.

[00:15:36]Very good.

[00:15:39]Yes.

[00:15:42]Perfect. What about your shoulder?

[00:16:00]Okay. And your shoulder.

[00:16:06]Brilliant.

[00:16:10]Now I'm going to use this end of my tool. It's very cold.

[00:16:17]And I'm just going to lift up your top.

[00:16:20]Okay.

[00:16:22]Yeah. Just round under the bust. Let me just lift that up.

[00:16:29]Okay.

[00:16:31]And I'm going to be touching your front and your back. And I just want you to let me know if I'm touching the front or the back. Okay. It is cold, so I apologize.

[00:16:43]Okay. So, just keep looking straight ahead. Don't look down.

[00:16:47]So, am I touching the front or the back?

[00:17:51]Okay. So, can you puff out your cheeks for me?

[00:17:56]Like that.

[00:17:59]Can you keep them like that and try and stop me pushing them back in?

[00:18:06]Now, can you just puff out your left cheek?

[00:18:12]Perfect. And just your right cheek.

[00:18:19]Okay. Can you scrunch up your eyes really, really tight?

[00:18:25]Okay. Keep them like that and stop me opening them.

[00:18:32]Perfect.

[00:18:34]Okay.

[00:18:36]And can you smile showing all of your teeth?

[00:18:41]Mhm. And purse your lips like that for me.

[00:18:48]Very good.

[00:18:50]Can you stick out your tongue?

[00:18:55]And can you lift it up and down to the right and to the left?

[00:19:05]Very good. Okay, I'm just going to have a little feel about just to make sure there's nothing that's sore.

[00:19:20]There's no numbness. Can you feel everything that I'm touching there?

[00:19:28]Okay.

[00:19:30]Mhm. Now, can you open your mouth for me?

[00:19:34]I'm going to try and push it closed.

[00:19:36]Just keep it open.

[00:19:42]Okay. Very good. And close your mouth.

[00:19:44]And I'm going to try and open it. Okay.

[00:19:52]Perfect. I'm just going to have a look in your ears now. All right. So we just get a look. Is there any soreness at all and itchiness?

[00:20:10]Okay, perfect. Sometimes people can have a reaction to something big and something on the other side.

[00:20:20]Nothing to be worried about there.

[00:20:24]Just this side. Let me no sess at all.

[00:20:34]Comfortable.

[00:20:37]Brilliant.

[00:20:41]Okay, that's good.

[00:20:47]Okay. Now, you're going to close your eyes and I'm going to be touching parts of your face. One is going to be with this cold metal part and one is going to be with this softer rubber part. Okay.

[00:21:04]Going to call this sharp and this soft.

[00:21:07]Just want you to let me know which one I'm using. Okay.

[00:21:11]All right. So, just close your eyes.

[00:21:15]Close your eyes. That's it. Very good.

[00:21:20]All right. So, tell me if it's sharp or soft.

[00:21:26]Soft.

[00:21:30]Sharp.

[00:21:33]Sharp.

[00:21:36]Sound.

[00:21:39]Sharp.

[00:21:43]Soft sharp sharp sh soft sh soft.

[00:22:18]Can open your eyes again.

[00:22:21]Mhm.

[00:22:24]Now, I'm just going to have a look at where your surgery took place. Okay.

[00:22:33]Just going to see if it needs rebandaging or anything.

[00:22:39]It's very neat, actually. The stitches, they're not even going to be visible.

[00:22:43]So, that's really good.

[00:22:50]Yeah, they're going to heal beautifully.

[00:22:52]I think I am just going to rebandage that one little part there. That's all right.

[00:23:14]Yeah. So, it's just there where it needs a little extra.

[00:23:27]Now, you've just bled through a little bit, but not too much.

[00:23:32]I'll come and change the bandages later today as well, so you're not going to be uncomfortable at all.

[00:23:44]All right.

[00:23:50]Now, I'm going to take your temperature.

[00:23:56]Okay.

[00:24:03]I'm going to do it inside your ears.

[00:24:06]Okay.

[00:24:12]All right.

[00:24:14]So, I'll do this ear first.

[00:24:21]Okay.

[00:24:26]And then this ear.

[00:24:35]Perfect.

[00:24:41]Okay.

[00:24:43]So, you don't have a fever, which is good cuz we are using the the antibiotics to make sure that you're not getting any infections. But if you did have a fever, that would be a sign of that.

[00:24:58]Yeah. So, what I'm going to do is just take this off and I'm going to pop the oxygen mask back on just so it's a bit more relaxing. It's not intrusive at all and you can take it off yourself whenever you need to. Okay.

[00:25:17]Going to let you get back to sleep. Let me pop this on.

[00:25:25]Yeah. So, you can have a bit more sleep or maybe read or anything. There's still a couple of hours until the food comes around. So, yeah. Yeah. So, you passed all the tests with flying colors. You'd be glad to know everything is as it should be. Seems like the operation worked perfectly.

[00:25:48]Yes. As I said, you'll be able to go home in a couple of days, and I'll be back later on to change your bandages.

[00:25:55]Okay. All right.

[00:25:57]You get some rest. I'll be back later.

[00:26:00]Okay.

[00:26:02]Okay. Bye-bye.
