Haney Mallemat (@criticalcarenow) joins Dan to discuss how social media can influence medicine and how recent medical events have shined a light on CPR and bleeding control. These two tragic events have shown the world, albeit briefly, how important early CPR and bleeding control are to survival.

There was no bystander CPR. For this reason we did not believe this was an acute coronary event and did not activate the cath lab. An elderly man collapsed. Medics found him in ventricular fibrillation. He was defibrillated, but they also noticed that he was being internally defibrillated and then found that he had an implantable ICD.

Everyone witnessed the tragic event of Damar Hamlin's cardiac arrest during an NFL Football game. While he had a great outcome, there remains a paucity of algorithms in managing cardiac arrest emergencies in equipment-laden athletes. Expert consensus begins with research in the field of cardiac arrest for equipment laden athletes.

After resuming CPR and administering an additional 400 mcg IV NTG, the patient achieved return of spontaneous circulation with sinus tachycardia.

Once a sufficiently high level is achieved, modelling of behaviours and episodes of retaliation can perpetuate the behaviours far beyond the initial event. A third RCT demonstrated that even brief low-level incivility could increase the risk of major error during CPR by up to 66%. They underestimated the impact of this exposure.

But I'd be less certain about an acute event without more information and prior and/or serial tracings.
