If the heart was in fibrillation, no pulse would be detectable and the AED would treat with a shock pulse. CPR is worthless when the heart is in fibrillation.

The reason they are running commercials is because they have no one who can talk this long without saying stupid stuff.

They are scrambling. Sports Broadcasting does not react well to emergencies.

So far, CNN has had some decent coverage so far. ESPN is sucking air.

Don’t you think the network made the decision to air the ads? (Not the sponsors.)

The network makes money when the ads run.

If it’s an aortic rupture, how horrible, can’t be easy to survive that without immediate surgery.

I read this and it seems to be up.

However, between January 24th and this article’s writing, February 7th, a span of roughly 14 days, the number of collapses has increased by 105 – from 513 to 618, and the number resulting in death has increased by 77 – from 305 to 382.

As I said, they should call to have them removed. They pay for them. Geez.

No pulse would be detectable that is correct. An AED may or may not shock depending on how coarse the v fib is - very fine v fib can be mistake. for ash time and no shock would be administered. CPR is always indicated between shocks and for a full 2 minutes after every shock before a pulse check

“Game postponed.”

I doubt they could get the players back into the game, anyway. Not when one of their own is in such a bad way.

I wouldn’t blame them if they had just walked off the field if the NFL wanted them to continue. Sometimes ya gotta go “I’m Spartacus!”.

True, my comment was regarding generalized “sudden death” reports/angst w/o stats or links. In this particular case (Bills safety) a traditional “blocked artery” heart attack is unlikely....more likely is “Commotio cordis”:

You can keep your name calling. Unless it makes you feel superior to do it.

Plenty of people are walking around maimed and wounded, cardiovascularly speaking, by this vexxine without even knowing it.

Did the two players you saw stay hit? Meaning, got hit and stayed down, without getting up? Or is it not unusual to see the player get up and fall back down again as in this case?

Apparently, the league did want them to continue. The coaches said “no”.

“Apparently, the league did want them to continue. The coaches said “no”.”

If so, the league just earned a boatload of bad PR, but good for the coaches for doing the right thing.

Not so.

Fibrillation means no rhythm at all—the heart balls up and contracts chaotically.

In a heart that young and powerful it’s not a “stopped heart” so much as it is a heart in an unregulated state of spasmodic contractions, causing blood to push out to the extremities, including the head, causing the athlete to pass out, as we saw here.
