※ This video is part of the <Extreme Job - Horse Doctor> broadcast on June 18, 2014. A huge body weighing 500 kg! An extreme surgical site using a crane! Horse Doctor A cold-blooded competition where every 0.1 second counts, horse racing! For racehorses that run at full speed at 65 km/h for distances of 1,000 to 2,000 m, injuries big and small are almost a fate. Behind the spectacular gallops of racehorses, there is a 'horse hospital' that people are not aware of. From horses with broken leg 'joints', the most common injury among racehorses, to horses suffering from abdominal pain, horses with torn eyes and toothaches! The field of equine treatment is beyond imagination. Even in the breeding field where all kinds of accidents are rampant, there are horse doctors. With over 1,400 racehorses, the equine hospital is bustling 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The horses, which weigh an average of 500 kg to 1 ton, are difficult to transport to the operating table. General anesthesia is essential, and each horse is escorted by five men. In addition, a 'crane' that can only be seen at construction sites is mobilized in the operating room to lift the horses. Just moving the horses is a sweaty task at the equine hospital! Horses are extremely sensitive in unfamiliar spaces, so you never know when they will act unexpectedly. Because of this, equine doctors are always exposed to the risk of fractures and frequent accidents. People who quickly and accurately save the dying spark of life even in life-threatening situations! The daily lives of the few equine doctors in Korea are revealed. - The equine hospital in Gwacheon is busy preparing for surgery today as well. The anesthesia injection alone is several times stronger than a human's. Two to three minutes after the anesthesia injection, the huge horse collapses on the floor like a docile lamb. Even safely moving to the operating table is a critical moment. Everyone must evacuate before the anesthesia wears off after the surgery. Everyday life resembles a battlefield. In the meantime, a horse that has not eaten anything for a week is brought in. The horse, complaining of pain, struggles not to cross the threshold of the hospital and desperately resists entering the examination table. The safety of the equine doctors is threatened! However, since no external injuries are visible, the equine doctors are deeply troubled... In the end, the equine doctor pulls out the card of major surgery called laparotomy. However, inside the horse's intestines, there is a rock the size of three adult fists. It is so big that the intestines could rupture. The equine doctors are troubled at the crossroads of life and death. - On the other hand, the horse hospital in Jangsu, Jeollabuk-do, mainly handles the breeding of stallions worth hundreds of millions of won. Since racehorses are important in terms of bloodlines, artificial insemination is impossible according to international regulations, and only natural breeding is possible. The mating process and even the pre- and post-mating health management are all the responsibility of the horse doctors. Since the horse is in a state of extreme excitement, it is common for people to get hurt when they jump over fences or kick with their hind legs during mating. We follow the life of the 'horse doctor', a therapist for animals that cannot speak, who runs with horses behind the racecourse. ✔ Program name: Extreme Job - Horse Doctor ✔ Broadcast date: 2014.06.18 #TVViewingCholladaeDocumentary
