Did anyone else notice that when Rishab was in the hospital a very critical and unstable patient, and when the doctor said his pulse is low and his blood pressure is dropping, the next scence showed a blood pressure of 120 over 80 which is normal and not dropping and on the cardiac monitor the heart rate pattern showed a nice wave with a pulse rate of about 70 beats per minute also normal and not dropping, as well then oxygen saturation machine showed the oxyegen sats to be 94% also normal and not dropping. Furthermore for a such an unstable patient he was not even intubated and no IV fluids runnning and when they were trying to shock him with the defribrillator there were no caridac leads on him at all. Then of course when he flatlined(went into cardiac arrest and stopped breathing), the cardiac monitor showed leads off! Even shows like ER and Grey's Anatomy can make those type of scenes look somewhat believable. Forgive me if I am a bit picky, these type of scenes catch my eye as it is an area of my specialty......

It would be ok for people who are not in this field or doesn't know it.!
But people like me, you and many others; we noticed and it was a bad impact for me.
