ObGyn Reacts to Birth on “The Most Accurate Medical Drama” | The Pitt Ep. 11

An obstetrician reviews a birth scene from the medical drama The Pitt, episode 11, and compares it with real obstetric practice. The discussion focuses on a laboring patient who was not moved to the maternity ward right away, followed by a shoulder dystocia and a postpartum hemorrhage. The video also considers how the show portrays obstetricians and childbirth more broadly. The video is presented by Mama Doctor Jones as an educational reaction and is not a substitute for medical advice.

• Review of a birth storyline in The Pitt, episode 11
• Shoulder dystocia and postpartum hemorrhage as shown on screen
• Comparison with real obstetric care and the role of the maternity ward
• Commentary on how the show represents obstetricians

With all due respect to Dr. Robbie and the other good (fictional) health workers at the Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center, PLEASE get some better representations of birth and obgyns! The Pitt, Max’s new medical drama about an emergency department, is being touted as “the most accurate medical drama of all time” and I can maybe believe that in terms of its representation of how busy, overworked, tired, and disrespected many healthcare workers (especially in the ER) are. But as for birth? Well, let’s just say that their first and biggest mistake was not IMMEDIATELY taking this laboring patient up to the maternity ward. What followed was a double-whammy birth emergency (shoulder dystocia followed by postpartum hemorrhage) so let’s review exactly what went wrong and why (no thanks to the world’s worst fictional obgyn).
