For those who didn’t know, he passed away 2 days later after collapsing... and was diagnosed with Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy a year earlier and wasn’t carefully monitored by anyone from the team or his family. That type of diagnosis typically kills an athlete within a few months to years if not treated properly.

HCM shows little to no signs and does not result in a heart murmur or arrhythmia, which is what a doctor is checking for when they listen to your heart at your annual physical. The only way to have known that he had HCM prior to his death would be for him to have had an echocardiogram and full work up by a cardiologist, which is not something you do routinely, only if you suspect there is underlying heart disease (such as, a murmur or arrhythmia). Unfortunately people do drop dead from HCM, because again there are little to no clinical signs prior.

@noonfly6 жыл бұрын
Absolutely ridiculous that none of these so-called medical personnel could tell he had lost a pulse and therefore to start CPR. Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is recoverable but the prognosis is completely based on time from arrest to initiation of high-quality CPR. People get better medical attention than this from strangers on the street.

The first thing I'm thinking is, turn over, C grip, check circulation and ventilation (I expect this to be an emergency), basic life support, intubation, monitoring, IV access-->bicarbonate etc, if shockable rythm defib, otherwise atropin bolus, adrenaline etc.... Thats what went through my head in the first 5 seconds watching the video. Instead they need atleast 2minutes to just turn him over. As they say in med school: 1min delay 10% chance of survival gone.

By doing cpr, ur manually pumping the heart, the longer u pump the heart the better the chance of survival. I watch a lot of rescue 911 when i was younger, i know what im talking about. Besides u cant defibrillate someone if the paramedics isnt there, cpr is use to buy time to keep the person a live as possible until paramedics arrives. Not everyone is going to have a defibrillator handy waiting to use, and depending on where u live it could take minutes before a paramedic arrive, thats y cpr is so crucial.

@@44kdog He is wrong but not entirely. It is nowadays not recommended to look for a pulse to attest a cardiac arrest if you are not trained to do so. If you are not medicaly trained, you should check if the patient is uncounscious by asking simple orders such as opening his eyes and check if he is in fact breathing. If he's uncouscious and not breathing, you call for help and start CPR immediately to limit the no-flow. Defribrillator on the other end, won't work if you have an asystolic cardiac rythm only if the patient is in V-fib or ventricular tachycardy.

Athletic Trainers are responsible for orthopedic treatment and other injuries, so for her to even run out there to try and assist, was highly commendable of her. Only team doctors are authorized to make calls in situations like this, and she was assisting them. Again, she went above and beyond. Nobody in this comment section knows the full story of what happened there or after he was taken out, so I’d take it easy. I know the story of course.
