It Was Difficult to Watch
The craziest thing that I’ve ever seen was a skinny woman who went into cardiac arrest and, since it was witnessed, we were able to start compressions immediately. As we compressed her heart, she would wake up and kick us, and also try to scream.
The second we stopped the compressions, she would go back out. It was the same cycle over and over again for as long as we could keep it up. This continued over and over again for a good half hour or so, until the cardiologist finally ordered us to stop.
We had a nurse dedicated to speaking into her ear to try to reassure her and get her to stop kicking. It didn’t really work. In her mind, she was kicking for her life. It was incredibly sad and difficult to watch. Story credit: Reddit / xts2500
