- Case study 132 - Anoxic Brain Injury
Anoxic brain injuries are caused by a complete lack of oxygen to the brain, which results in the death of brain cells after approximately four minutes of oxygen deprivation.
The overall life expectancy for patients with anoxic brain injuries or hypoxic brain injuries can vary based on the severity of the brain damage from lack of oxygen and is something that should be discussed with a patient’s physician.
If you don’t know CPR, please consider taking a class to potentially save a life. 🏥

This is very important for all to know. I am CPR Certified even though I’m not in an industry where I need it. I had it since I was 18 and kept up with it. My daughter & son-in-law are both certified as well. They did it because they have a toddler and a baby on the way. He is now a fire fighter so of course he needs it.
I have questions about a stroke patient. Severe Stroke and if you have a video on I’m curious. They didn’t get to the hospital within 4 hours, so it’s pretty bad.
I loss my hearing, in my left ear, after the emergency room had restored my pulse ox and low blood pressure. While I was waiting for a room, I was crying hysterically because I felt awful. Then, I felt my left ear close just like on a flight. I could never pop the ear back to equilibrium. Over the next three weeks, I had several steroid injections into the cilia. I end up needing a Cochlear implant on the left ear. No one is quite sure what this happened to me but losing half of my hearing devastated me and continues to do so.
My boss’ dad was walking near a shop and collapsed. A bystander rang 000 (I’m in Au) and started CPR until the Ambulance arrived. Saved his life. My boss then offered first aid instruction to everyone at work who wanted to do it. It’s one of those things everyone should know but you hope you never have to use it!
Later this month our county's public health sponsors a yearly county-wide teach-in of Hands Only CPR, Stop the Bleed, and how to reverse an OD with Narcan. At shopping malls, ferry terminals, etc
I hope to never need to know this, but now i do.
My father died in the car at the dermatologists office waiting in the car for my mom to pay the bill. He had just walked out there. Mom found him and immediately got doctors and nurses from inside of the dermatologist office where they were. The hospital was a block away. He received some of the most intense care from just a minute or two from coding. He never recovered. I think when it’s your time, it’s just your time. Not the fault of anything.
