Do they usually respond? Have you ever had a reply "from beyond"?
- irrational 7y agoI assumed he meant, recently deceased. I imagined this was part of trying to revive the very recently deceased person.
- ceejayoz 7y agoI suspect it's just a typo of "deaf".
- allannienhuis 7y agopossibly a typo - s/dead/deaf/
- Engineering-MD 7y agoIt was a typo to deaf, but you do actually have to confirm death by checking a lack of response to loud verbal stimulus. Never had it when I thought someone was dead not respond to voice, but I have had it where they only responded once we started chest compressions.
