Elderly Man Suffered Heart Attack in Sea, Receives CPR, but Died

Last Sunday J.C.F.D, 72 years old, died after feeling ill, in the sea, at a Brazilian beach.

There were no lifeguards around but bathers tried to rescue him until help arrived. Two doctors performed CPR before he was sent to the Emergency Unit but he did not resist.

Initially, they treated the case as drowning, but in fact, they discovered in the hospital that the victim suffered a heart attack.

Seeing CPR performed always reminds me how violently you have to press. Movies and TV shows make you forget.

I think he had a heart attack after seeing that white whale stomping around the beach

It's unfortunate no one checked his fucking pulse first!

Very true. If you do CPR correctly, you are going to break some of their ribs more often than not. If they're elderly YOU ARE GOING TO BE BREAKING SOME RIBS.

Nobody performed the old fireman's carry and run around jumping and jolting... that's strange.

I think checking for a high femoral pulse?

CPR given was absolutely ineffective.

On breaking ribs, had one where the ribs broke up instead of down. We were doing chest compressions for almost 45 minutes by the time the ambo got to the hospital. We were dog tired and not doing good compressions at that point. Some nurse complained about the compressions and just jumped on her to start. The ribs poked up and through his gloves into his palms. It was not someone that you would want to share blood with.
The patient actually lived for about two weeks before he died.

Well, she was either trying to locate a sea slug, OR she may have been misguidedly seeking a femoral pulse ?

In my past life as a paramedic, I accidently touched a few sweaty ball bags, or got too close to wayward labia when going for the femoral pulse or trying to desperately get some baseline arterial gases from a cooperative limb.

Mind you, it's not like you're looking for these things, but in some of the older folks, these things can be somewhat "displaced" at times

And in the chaos of an careering ambulamps ride, just trying to get "key systems" back online, the hand is not always as gentle or as accurate as it should be !
