Dunno about you, but this does things to me.
- esseph 4mo agoCan you explain?
- Dansvidania 4mo agoNot op, but imagine doing cpr to someone for more than an hour (btw this means multiple people taking turns because cpr is exhausting) and at some point there is a sign of feeble heart contractile activity (and hence life) It must have been a very emotional moment for the rescuers and parents if present. Edit: corrected typo
- rsync 4mo agoAn hour of cpr in an ALS scenario almost certainly involves a Lucas device: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LUCAS_device https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LUCAS_device … which are commonly carried in ambulances.
- Dansvidania 4mo agoTIL! thanks!
