A video of a lab attendant performing an ECG (electrocardiogram) scan on a patient after learning about the procedure on YouTube at a hospital in Rajasthan’s Jodhpur has gone viral on social media.

The video shows the attendant performing the patient’s ECG while watching the YouTube tutorial on his phone at Paota Satellite Hospital.

Despite the fact that the patient and his family repeatedly requested a doctor or qualified staff, the hospital employee continued to perform the ECG, apparently unconcerned. The man watched YouTube tutorials in silence even though video of the incident was being recorded, demonstrating a shocking disregard for proper medical protocol.

The person who filmed the video claimed that medical staff were also involved. The attendant, meanwhile, admitted that he did not know how to perform an ECG, but explained that since no employee was on duty due to Diwali, he was forced to attempt the procedure himself.

After the video went viral on social media, principal BS Jodha of the attached medical college said the incident was under investigation. He confirmed that appropriate action will be taken against those responsible.
