Pulse parents guide: Nudity, medical gore, and other content warnings

Netflix's first English-language original medical drama procedural Pulse made its premiere on Thursday, April 3, and those who love the medical drama genre shouldn't waste a moment to start their binge-watch. From intriguing medical cases to juicy interpersonal challenges among the hospital's staff to mysterious secrets from the past, the series will have you hooked.
Willa Fitzgerald stars in Pulse as Dr. Danielle "Danny" Simms, who finds herself promoted to chief resident of Maguire Hospital after the previous chief resident was suspended. Dr. Xander Phillips (Colin Woodell) steps down from his position in the wake of sexual harassment allegations lodged against him. Keep in mind, this all happens as a hurricane barrels toward Miami.
But before tuning into the brand-new medical drama that everyone will surely be talking about, it's understandable to want to know what you're getting into. Is there nudity? Are there sex scenes? How gory are the surgeries and medical procedures.
