Cardiologist Explains Christian Eriksen's Collapse & Why Athletes Have Cardiac Arrests
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 окт 2024
- Christian Eriksen suffered a cardiac arrest while playing in the Euro 2020 Denmark vs Finland match, then required CPR and defibrillation. *EDIT on 13/6/2021: Eriksen's club boss says he neither tested positive for COVID and he has NOT been vaccinated*
What happened, and is this common?
What could’ve caused it and why are athletes' hearts special?
Why wasn’t this picked up in screening?
Is this anything to do with COVID or the vaccine?
What can you do if something like this happens to someone you know?

People being afraid of doing CPR wrong: That person is already dead, anything you do is OK, unless there's someone else more trained than you, just do it.
and don't worry if any ribs break. Broken ribs can heal, dead brain tissue won't.
There's also a fear of legal repercussions should the person not survive, from what I've discussed with people
@@adaileah well most country have a "Good Samaritan" law, as long as you do CPR and/ or call for help, you can't do more harm than good in this case...
@@henk-3098 There's no point worrying about breaking ribs, you WILL break ribs in many cases. You just need to be prepared for that and don't stop until emergency responders get there. There is nothing you can do to them worse than what would happen if you did nothing.
Or take a course on CPR, it's really not that difficult, costs around £50 and it might save someone's life one day.

Two things every person should know: CPR and basic bleeding control. Together, these can save the majority of patients with survivable injury, and it takes only a few hours to learn both. Keep the blood inside a person, oxygenated, and moving through their veins, and they're much more likely to survive and much more likely to have a better clinical outcome.
And to know when you should call the ambulance.
@@paxundpeace9970 Well if you're doing either of those things it's probably not a bad idea.
CPR with an AED can save a patient's life. CPR without an AED can save their organs for donation.
@@prmperop Quality CPR without an AED can keep a patient's neurological function intact until a higher level of care, nearly indefinitely if it weren't for damage that'll eventually be done to the lungs and heart from being squished.
Even a reduced blood supply of oxygen makes outcomes much better than a complete lack of it. Ideally, every person to recieve CPR could be given compressions by a LUCAS device and bagged with oxygen (not all arrhythmias are treatable with an AED), but basic compressions and rescue breaths are still very effective when applied quickly, well, and continuously.
The bleeding control is an often overlooked one too - according to a friend who is an A&E doc most people just don't place makeshift tourniquets properly or tight enough to limit it, and it makes a massive difference keeping injured people conscious and responsive. Tbh, till he demonstrated on my arm, I didn't realise the proper technique either.
I was watching in the center of Helsinki when it happened, all the streets went completely silent all of a sudden. I guess I can speak for all Finnish people when I say that I hope he will make a full recovery and our hearts go out to him, his family and the Danish team. 🙏
As a fellow Finn I was super proud of the Finnish spectators there. Let's hope he makes full recovery
It might be a little weird but still: congrats with the win Finland.
As a Dane i can say you finns were a great sport at the match and really showed care for the Danish players and fans. A lot of Danes have talked on social media about your sportsmanship. If you go through a lot of Danes will be rooting for you!
Voi vittu!
It was traumatic to everybody who watched it. I prepared myself to hear that he passed and just waited to hear the news. A lot of prayers were said that afternoon.

Learning CPR is one of the most important skill that one can learn which might some day help in saving someone's life. My father actually had a cardiac arrest about 6 years ago. None of us knew about the CPR and only tried to rush him to the hospital as fast as we could. It took about 10-15 minutes to take him to the hospital. There the doctors and the staff immediately gave him defibrillation after checking vital signs. After giving him defibrillation multiple times, his heart did recover, but he didn't come back conscious. He went in coma. The doctors later told us that in the time it took for us to get him to the hospital, he had suffered neurological damage because oxygen wasn't being sent to the brain by the heart, and that neurological damage has low chances of recovery. Thus, it was important for us to give him CPR while on the way to the hospital. About a month later, he suffered another cardiac arrest and this time he couldn't be revived.
Now looking back at the time, if only I knew about the CPR and how to give it, maybe I wouldn't have lost him.
I'm sorry for your loss.
May I ask where you live? Here (in Germany) you need to do a first aid course in order to get your drivers license, so basically everyone here should know it, but even if not, when you call 911 they will normally tell you through the phone how to do it.
@@_the_ i think Europe is the only place that requires CPR, here in Australia its not something you have to do, but some job positions require it (looking after kids professionally like kindergarten teachers, day cares, butchers are meant to get it as a part of their training (which doesn't mean they actually remember it, as we had a person have their first epileptic seizure in our store and one of the butchers tried to help by doing some of the things they show on tv).
That is such a tough way to learn this and I am sorry for your loss. May your father RIP🙏🏽
@@dawnlizreads don't give excuses

“I am not an expert on this” say the cardiologist. The purest sign you’re in the presence of a top notch doctor. Humility 🙏🏽
Was about to say the same:)
Definitely! The more knowledge you have in an area, the more you also know about where you lack knowledge. I'm sure even among doctors, he's more knowledgable in this area than most due to being a cardiologist, but his definition of an "expert" in this area is most likely very different from ours and sets the bar much higher.
This should be the norm. We need to learn to say ‘I don’t know’ and leave it at that.
@@jasperfk well say I don't know and consult someone with more expertise.
not really...and running a youtube channel kind of counts on the negative side...imo - few sudden cardiac arrest deaths of younger individuals happen. even fewer are observed. often no cause is diagnosed - there is ZERO chance CE has any preexisting heard condition - and the only reasonable treatment will be an s-ICD and back on the pitch asap.....

Thank you for your PSA about trying CPR. Recently a guy in my local area had a cardiac arrest in the street. He actually survived due to a bystander who knew what he was doing, and I believe made at least a decent recovery as he was interviewed about it afterwards.
However it was disappointing to learn that while he was doing CPR on this man, a good amount of abuse was being hurled at him by other bystanders telling him to get off/ that he's going to hurt the guy. Where I grew up we all had to do CPR courses multiple times along with some basic other first aid, so it was completely baffling to me that some of these people didn't know what he was doing, and we're trying to discourage him.
Broken ribs are a side effect but since your heart has stopped you are dead.
The vigorous chest compression is scary to see and hear but you must not stop until relieved.
And CPR is tiring...please step in and take your turn.
There was a recent story in the U.K. where a supermarket wouldn’t allow someone to take the defibrillator out of the shop to the car park to treat someone having a heart attack because the security guy assumed (apparently without checking) that they were trying to steal its
@@molybdomancer195 that's so strange. At least where I grew up (also UK) the defibrillators are in locked cabinets that the emergency services need to give you a code to (which is a bit questionable but that's a whole other discussion) precisely so that they know that the people accessing them aren't stealing them.

Two weeks ago my dad had a heart attack while out on a 10k run. Along with several people who stopped to help, the man who did CPR for 10mins while waiting for the ambulance to arrive saved my dad’s life.
He originally had a pulse and they were doing the A.B.C checks when suddenly his pulse went. That's from doctor on scene.
Conclusion : even if the victim seems fine, keep checking their pulse.
what did you think happened first before he lost his pulse? did he faint or a seizure? his eyes were bulging so big
Possible faint, hence way the radial pulse was not present or difficult to palpitate the carotid pulse... trying to find out if he was actually defibrillated.
@@stevebaker4841 yeah he had cpr and defibrillation
That would somewhat make sense .
One evening at work an elderly gentleman collapsed. He was lucky in that he was sitting next to a retired GP in a room where everyone had some first aid training. The ambulance was already on its way when he stopped breathing (well, had agonal breathing which doesn't count). Immediate CPR and use of the defibrilator we had in the foyer made all the difference. Paramedics took over after the second shock had been administered and the casualty was chatting with them by the time he arrived at the hospital. Nearly two years later and he is still doing well. I think I'm still a bit shaken by the whole adventure and just hope I'll have the presence of mind to act as promptly if ever something like that happens when I don't have anyone else to help me.
He was really lucky to get that level of care while the professionals got there. Great job!
I think you'll do fine. You didn't just get a training course on a dummy, you watched it happen in real time. You'll never forget the important parts of that and they'll be right there as your only thoughts if it happens again.
Just remember: if you hear and feel a crunch or snap, you're doing a good job, keep at it!
My cousins son died playing Sunday football aged 20. He just collapsed on the pitch and to this day they could not tell his dad the reason he died. This was 15 years ago though. My son was 10 at the time and played football, I went out and bought a defibrillator for the team. The FA should issue all amateur referees with defibrillators and be trained to use them as part of the referees course.
I'm so sorry to read about your loss. In 2019, a work colleague's only child, died suddenly playing rugby. He was only 14.
Why put that on refs? Teams players and coaches should be trained
an arrhythmic death is basically unprovable if the medics arrived to the corpse, so that's not a surprise they can't tell why that boy died.
@@toomuch9762 If you was involved in Kids football or Sunday league you would understand how totally irresponsible many football team managers etc are. Level 1 coaching course did include Brief CPR and first aid training, and I would agree the use of defibrillators should be taught, if it’s not already. Also most teams have no money to buy and maintain defibrillators. Referees also do three or four games a day, that means less defibrillators are required to be purchased and the FA could easily afford to buy and maintain them for every referee.

My brother (Rural fire fighter) just recently had a heart attack... the advanced resuscitation team that were working with him that day 100% saved him... they gave him 8 shocks from the defib and gave him care for 30+ minutes until paramedics arrived. They are truly heros in my eyes.
That is impressive - hope he makes a full recovery.
Big applause to his teammates, I hope he recovers fully.
We will, don't worry
Njebs full recovery based on health or based on getting back to playing football? If you think it is the latter, you are most likely wrong unfortunately. But hopefully his health should return back to normal but having to have his heart monitored for the next year or so through doctor’s visits.
@@brandonmiotke you have grossly misunderstood my comment, just poking fun at how the comment says "we" instead of "he"

@@brandonmiotke Well he's now playing for Brentford in the EPL and was 'only' out for 9 months (he'll be playing his 10th game for them later today) and has played for Denmark again but that's with an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator device. So he's recovered enough to play professional football at the highest level but with a bit of kit inside him that should save his life if it ever happens again.
I saw the crowd chanting clip in a news article. I live in the U.S. and it was a touching tribute that both sets of fans got involved.
Apparently the Finnish team clapped when the Danish team came back to the pitch.
Some things are more important than sportsball.
The chanting at the end gave me chills. Such respect.
Correction, it was the other way around: The Finnish shouting "Christian!" and the Danes then continuing "Eriksen!". Does it matter? I think it was great that it was the opponents starting to shout out his first name.
I thought the more obvious tell was their pronounciation of “i” (close to English “ee” as in “reece”, rather than the Danish pronounciation which is closer to “e” as in “respect”.)
@@qupp75 Yes, that as well. I found it better to explain the different "a" as many can refer to the difference from "tomato" and "tomato" in UK and US. Unless you are talking to people who are actually eager to learn the languages, you will keep explanations simple (modtagerorienteret).
@@eblita3698 you put uk for both so I'm confused. Did you mean to write us for one of them
When football fans become a football family instead. These moments it happen is beautiful to see and experience.
Another thing that makes it obvious is the volume, the amount of danish fans was obviously much higher, and can hear it in the shouts.
During my first aid training someone asked "how long should you do CPR for?" The cynical ex fireman said: "Depends. On a stranger, about 15 minutes. On a family member, until you collapse."
In Arizona, we were taught "until the patient recovers a pulse, or you are relieved, or after you simply can't go on." You are not required to start but once you start you are responsible for your actions.
@@flagmichael same in the west of Canada. Im trained as an emt (dont work as one) and teach first aid and its till obvious signs of life, someone can take over, or till you physically cant (the last of which is not an option if your working in first aid, eg. Emt, lifeguard, firefighter, etc.)
@@flagmichael If your arms start to give up, just switch to legs and feet.
In the US you do CPR until a more qualified person arrives or you get a pulse.

There's a public defibrillator somewhere across the street from my flat. I should probably go check it out and see where it exactly is, just in case.

Thank you so much for explaining and raising awareness. I lost one of my classmates who I used to play football with 14 years ago.

I think it's important to highlight the heroism of the Dane's captain Simon Kjaer too who immediately realized the problem, put Eriksen into a stable position, cleared his airways and started doing CPR until the meds arrived. He is the very person everybody should be when something like this happens on the streets.
That is why he's the captain
Our first aid training films at work used that technique heavily: one of the people present quickly took the lead, reassured the victim while beginning the process and keeping them talking if possible. It was a very helpful vision.
If only life were always that simple, though. Our department had three fatalities - two heart attacks in hopelessly remote locations and a single vehicle accident involving a contract worker. He died when he left the 55 mph two lane road at more than 100 mph and hit a tree.
He is not started CPR tho. Can be clearly seen that Eriksen is still face-down when the meds arrive and they take over.
@@todanrg3 Maybe, I read it in an article but didn't watch it again. It was enough once.
How is performing CPR on someone ‘heroism’ ?
This is why everyone should know, understand and be able to perform cpr
If you're alone with someone in need of CPR, but you're unsure about whether your chest compressions will be good enough because you had practically no training, remember that suboptimal compressions are better than no compressions (as long as you compress in more or less the correct area); there might still be some blood reaching the brain where otherwise, there would be none.
Oh and imagine this situation with no supporters due to COVID, that would've been immensely cold.
Yes and dont be scared to use force a broken rib is better than death 👍
We were taught that if you don't have a barrier with you (I carried one on the truck but never had one on me) to just do compressions. Supposedly the CPR is nearly as effective without the breaths and having somebody compressing without going mouth to mouth with a stranger is better than nothing.
@@flagmichael During the first wave of COVID they told us to skip the breaths as well, but personally, I don't think I'd risk that. There does come a point when one needs to replenish the oxygen (maybe not after every 30 compressions though), and if you're on the street doing CPR for a very long time, at least some breaths would be necessary. Then again, that last part is my gut speaking.
I do wonder, is there any research as to how long the body can do with the oxygen in the blood and remaining air in the lungs, when it is in need of CPR? That would possibly solve this.
@@Timmie1995 Still buying that 'Rona' lie huh? We all know why all these perfectly healthy athletes are now dropping like flies... and it's got nothing to do with CPR. You people are so indoctrinate by all this nonsense, I don't think you're just brainwashed... You're brain damaged. 🐑baaaaaaahhh baaaaahhhh
The most important part of the video for me... I need to re-up my knowledge of CPR. Learned it 45 years ago - everyone at our school had to follow a Red Cross CPR course - but I wouldn't mind doing it again. "Staying Alive" is a good one.
Do it! Lots of things have changed in 45 years! And a good instructor will give you lots of practical exercises so that you actually know the movements and procedures from muscle memory. It's a good idea to re-take the course every three years to remind yourself how it's done.
Yeah, I should go for mine again too! I got my CPR and First Aid certifications from St. John's Ambulance courses close to 20 yrs. ago, but I've been lucky enough not to need to use much from them but the very basics. (Apart from holding a roommate's gaping leg wound shut, and holding most of my 110lbs of body weight on it along with handfuls of snow, after he'd fallen on his own skate blade during a midnight hockey game... bloody good times!)
Anyway, my skills and knowledge could definitely use some brushing up!
I'll be humming "Another One Bites the Dust". ;)
I came into the living room while my parents were watching, he had just collapsed. I'm not a fan of football but it was still so sad to watch. Everyone just powerless, watching someone they look up to. Seeing players, fans, his wife crying was really sad.
Honestly, it was against the standards of ethics that they were showing his wife/partner. I heard that in some countries TV stations refrained from broadcasting directly or just showed some general picture of the stadium which is the right thing to do, IMO.
Wow, that clip at the end really got me. I hope they all go get CPR training!

It will be interesting to see Eriksen’s diagnosis. I read that about three years ago he had what was described as a “chronic abdominal injury” which plagued him for some time in 2018 and seemed to threaten his career. He recovered and returned with seemingly no health issues. Might be totally unrelated of course. I wish him all the best in his recovery.

Was looking into an article (its dutch you can translate it) www.gezondheid.be/index.cfm?fuseaction=art&art_id=26968 it looks into the causes these healthy young men might have for the cardiac arrests.

Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy patient as well as heart transplant recipient here, thanks for talking about this. People don't seem to realize how serious this disease is until I tell them that its the most common cause of sudden cardiac arrest in young athletes. I was transplanted at 22 and can honestly say if this disease wasn't caught in me when I was extremely young, I probably would've become nothing more than a statistic. Many times athletes will feel chest pain or abnormal rhythms but push through it anyways, which often ends in situations like this. Thankfully in recent years there has been a lot of effort to get AED's put in so many different places which have saved countless lives, like Christians. Since I was young I have always kept a defibrillator in my car, even though I'm unlikely to need it with my new heart, you never know when it could save a life.

I had my diagnosis after "feeling strange" before a test to try and qualifying for playing on a football team when i was 12. My dream was to become an athlete. Never before that i have had any symptoms. The cardiologist that diagnosed me said that whatever kept me from doing the physical test that day might have saved my life and I had to stop doing physical activities immediately. A transplant was also considered a viable option in my case but because i was so young they did something called a septal ablation and i was implanted an ICD with satisfactory results. I am 24yo now and stable. It was very hard for me to accept the fact that i would never be able to play sports professionaly. Every time I see something like this happening to any athlete it really hits me and makes me think that i was actually very lucky.
@@savannahn8202 so what does that mean u won't get the virus
@@fbutzke345 I’m really sorry to hear that. I was diagnosed when I was 3, so I never really had time to get involved with sports or to have my dreams crushed. lol. but your cardiologist is right, finding this out when you were young was a pretty big blessing because this so easily could have been you, maybe even in high school. I know a lot of people that passed away very young from cardiac arrest due to this disease. For me, I was never a candidate for an ablation due to where my thickening was, but I was stable my entire life. until I turned 21 and started going downhill, and couldn’t take it anymore just after my 22nd birthday. From the time I went into my cardiologist to tell him I think it’s time to talk about transplant, to the day I was transplanted, was exactly 125 days. When people say “oh man, 2020 was quite a year!” I just look them in the face and say man, you have no idea.
The reason they didn’t start cpr on eriksen is they said he had a pulse, and then he didn’t.
My mum has Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy and arrhythmia, with a pacemaker AND defibrilator installed, + a mechanical valve & 2 pig valves. She tried to explain it to me using young football players as an example, so this was a VERY enlightening video.
Happy Anniversary and Happy Birthday to Ms. Dr. Crisis!
6:00 Litle known fact. Cristiano Ronaldo was diagnosed with 'racing heart' when he enrolled in SCP academy and had to undergo heart surgery before he could start training at a professional level.
I always *knew* Ronaldo was an escaped [REDACTED] !
Aw shit, here comes Dr. Clef with the amnesetics...
I took a defibrillator course a few years ago to add to my advanced first aid training. Where I live in the UK you're never too far away from a defibrillator in public places. It's interesting to know that as we learn more about cardiac resuscitation techniques that continuous chest compressions are the most important action and not so much rescue breathing as well. Thanks for the vid Rohin and congratulations to you and your wife on your anniversary.
Actually it was the other way around. The Finns started chanting "Christian" and it took a few times until the Danes started to chant "Eriksen".
Happy Birthday to your wife and congratulations to you both! Thank you for this excellent video.
Happy Anniversary, Dr. Francis!
Thank you for sharing this with us all. Speedy recovery to Eriksen!!
Not the spurs dig 😭😭😭😭Rohin you're killing me
Thanks for sharing Rohin, fantastic video and explanation 👌🏾
Can you talk about how stress can increase your chances of getting cardiac arrest and how we can avoid it
“Life could be much worse. He could still be playing for Spurs.” 😂😂
Everybody who drives in Germany knows cpr because it is mandatory to take a first aid class in order to get your license
We need to do the course once. I doubt I have any knowledge now ten years later...
Friends and colleagues of mine are still insecure, partly because they only had a class once. Not sure how I would react in a situation like this but generally I'm pretty sure I could do CPR correctly and would do it. I know I can't do wrong if I do something.
@@fridaschneiderlein8246 Agreed, and I've had the course twice!
If possible, it would be great to take the course every three years or so. Every time I do it I pick up something new and feel more confident about my skills.
Same in Switzerland
i was really hoping for a video! such an important topic. i’ve never seen football players collapse like that without a collision with another player, it was terrifying. really happy that he’s recovering.
I'm not even into football and that chant is making me tearful
This happened to a friend of mine during a rugby match. Unfortunately he wasn't so lucky. He was 25 and the best friend you could have hoped to have. Thank you for being a doctor and the excellent work that you do
Just for the record, Inter's CEO Marotta has said that Eriksen hasn't been vaccinated against covid-19; and that, as far as we know, he hasn't gotten the disease.
he was vaccinated 31st of may with pfizer
@@lightninggornall Are you making up facts?!
@@johndododoe1411 apparently an inter milan coach said on radio all the team was vaccinated on 31st of may, i obviousky cannot verify as i dont understand italian
@@lightninggornall Pls link something if you have it.
It was awful to watch. I'm so glad to hear that he's stable in hospital and I hope he makes a full and speedy recovery.
He was defibrillated about 3 mins after the collapse. That's what saved his life. Christian Eriksen was effectively dead for about 3 minutes.
His heart was still beating when the doctor arrived. So even less than 3 minutes.
Happy anniversary and thanks for the vid.
Very important advice for everyone.
Heart compressions saves lives.
Good video too.
Mate you grabbed my attention within the first minute. some great witty banter and a straight face. The knowledge you share with us is amazing and informative. Thank you for cultivating us! defo subscribin
According to the AP, Eriksen had a pulse until the medical staff was already out there, so his heart was still beating when he went down. Might be why CPR seemed to take a little more time than usual. (Edited to include the source)
First time viewer. I appreciate hearing your perspective. While your knowledge is extensive, you don’t draw conclusions based on what you don’t know. Refreshing!
I was jogging at the track and I my heart stop. Cpr was done on me and I'm alive today.
You've become such a fun part of my RUclips feed. I find your videos fascinating and informative and I swear to God I would do anything to have a physician as authentic as you in my life. Thank you for uploading such interesting and helpful information and in a way that is clear to layman. Your conversation is respectful of the common Man and we all get a sense that you are level-headed and compassionate. Congratulations to your wife and you on your anniversary and I think she's a lucky lady to get married on her birthday have fun that is
16:07 - bad jokes, priceless as always :D
As a Spurs fan, that hurt. But it did make me laugh.
Fantastic content and an incredible talker, you explain things with such ease.
you´re literally the only person who explained why this happened.. every news outlet or any source describing this only say it was a collapse but dont explain why. thank you!
We know why ... It's a shame all these idiots in the comment section still buying into this damage control they're selling in this sort of video. 😂 Jibber Jabber
Great video.. Im 29 and fit and I suffered a cardiac arrest in January due to underlying long qt syndrome and torsades de pointes.
I spent over a week in a coma and 5 weeks in hospital.. its great to see how quickly Eriksen has seemed to bounce back.
Christian is one of the world’s greatest players, it’s remarkable that of all the players on the pitch he was the one to collapse. He must have played over 40 games every year for a decade, at the top of the game, that wear and tear to the heart must cause a great deal of stress to the muscle. Never thought about how the heart changes from such rigorous exercise. Great vid
Add in massove doses of caffeine and other less fun stuff and suddenly you see why he might have issues.
@@alanmoore291 Interesting . Maybe the extreme heat on day played a part
@@ingsocsaxon9728 cannot be discounted. I was reporting on the match and saw it happen, 1st thing I thought of was - PEDs. Nobody will call it out because to do so will bring down the house of cards.
@@alanmoore291 Never really thought about that. Certainly could be. Seems logical given he’s never had any heart trouble before this major tournament. If ever he wanted an “edge” it would be now
@@ingsocsaxon9728 This is it. And we've seen it with players having issues from hyper dosing caffeine. Liverpool's massive drop was a case in point, Leicester's great win under Ranieri another
Great advice to the general public on how to respond if suspect someone has heart attack and how to do CPR.
The national team's doctor was the first to arrive (one of the two guys in blue), after the players, of course. At that time, Christian was alive. Then after a few minutes, his life symptoms disappeared, and he immediately started CPR.
Just to clarify.
I am so glad his teammates covered him. I remember watching Miklós Fehér dying on live TV during a football match. I was 10, the first (and thankfully only so far) time I saw a person die, and had nightmares for quite a while. I knew about death and all but watching it actually happen in the moment, the teammate's despair, the commentators voices and the way the adults around me were acting was absolutely surreal.
"First of all, there's still a lot we don't know about... xxx"
When Dr. Francis uses one of the tricks he taught you on you
Great video. Informative and good sense of humor, as always. Thanks!!
Can we all take a moment to just appreciate how far we've come in medical knowledge, technique, and technology? 100 years ago this person wouldn't have been getting back up, but thanks to the efforts of thousands of brilliant people who dedicated their lives to figuring this shit out, this guy is ALIVE and most likely going to recover completely. Is that insane to anyone else or is it just me?
Nah it’s not just you. I think about this often, how blessed we are to have EMTs, doctors, nurses, etc.
Moreover, the advancements made in medicine are absolutely insane.
I don’t know how these people do it, as it looks like a very hard and stressful job. I honestly think they were born with that gift, but who knows.
Researchers are another breed - the kid who never stopped questioning why.
You ever think about how goddamn wild it is that we can operate on the heart and brain by wriggling a wire around through the arm?
Technology and medicine increased so very slowly right up until telephones were invented. Since then we've done more innovation than the entire history of our species before it, in less than 150 years.
Another fascinating video Doc & don't worry as we won't tell Mrs MedlifeCrisis.
"It could be worse he could be still playing for Spurs!"
Don't jinx the poor guy!
Congrats on the anniversary, man! 🙌
Really important point that vaccine surveillance is such that we will likely see things like myocarditis more frequently than the historical data, not because of a causation but the meticulous surveillance itself... ie: seeing the true baseline rate
We will probably get better baseline data on all sorts of stuff, even things that may not have been on our radar. It is truly an ill wind that blows no good.
Not because of a causation? Israel is reporting 22% higher than previous years in deaths in age 20 - 29 in the months following vaccination.
The danish national league officially announced he had neither COVID nor was he ever vaccinated. Crazy conspiracy theories
@@ozztam Sources my man, Sources, and make sure there are more than 3 VARIED sources at that
@@Alexis84DE Actually your wrong. Christian Eriksen was vaccinated on the 31st of May.
Cheers for the vid bro 🙏🏼
"It could be worse..he could still be playing for Spurs".....how dare you
Thank you for you explaination and everything you do, many happy returns and Happy Anniversary
Do you do chest compressions if someone is unresponsive but looks like they cloud be having an epileptic fit or something?
Thanks for informative video!
I would have thought if they aren't breathing you assume they have no pulse and therefore CPR. If they have muscle tensing then they must have oxygen feeding those muscle to work and therefore must be breathing.
Compressions are started whenever there is no pulse. If someone is not breathing despite having a pulse, we try to maintain their airways and address the underlying problem. For epileptic fits, keep them in the Recovery Positon and if they were not beathing properly you need to call the ambulance!
