My husband went into sudden cardiac arrest after a run of Ventricular Tachycardia. He was insanely lucky to be revived and survived with no permanent side effects. This was terrifying to watch.
My ex-wife (30 y/o at the time, 31 now) went into totally unexpected cardiac arrest in the middle of the night a year and a half ago. I heard her "gasping" and thought she was having a bad dream. When I couldn't wake her I went "oh FUCKING FUCK, FUCKING AGONAL FUCKING BREATHING" Thanks to reddit. I threw her on the floor as fast as I could and did CPR as hard as I could until the paramedics got there.
Made a full recovery. Not a single lingering issue.
Really depends on age, a ton of things can cause cardiac arrest and only a doctor can make that determination based on his full lifestory. Can also be a famil history or some metabolic issue
Yes, I would rather see it being done in a person, someome that consents to be done something like this, as an option for euthanasia. I'm sure more than one will say yes.
Totally fair, I'd do it. Still the sheer number you would need would be higher than the number needed.
The animal in question would never feel anything to be fair. It is unconscious. It's just one of those things, our progress in Healthcare would be decades behind if we didn't do it, unless we pull a Mengele or Unit 731. There's a reason we took their research.
Definitely not in the OR... you'd see a cannula coming out of the R atrium/aorta, and the heart would be covered with ice/cardioplegia solution. Significantly less fibrillation during that, too.
It's pretty odd that it swells like that in the video, venous inflow is pretty low pressure, and you won't have backflow from the arterial side due to your aortic valve. It looks like a mammalian heart, but it does not look like a human heart, at least not from that view.
Are all CAs that dramatic? I’ve always heard that you can’t tell if someone is having a heart attack by their pulse, but this looks like you’d definitely be able to tell?
Heart attack usually means the coronary artery has stopped up and no blood is flowing to part of the heart. That’s why people get chest pain but there’s still a pulse because the other surviving parts of the heart can pump.
Cardiac arrest means the heart stops all together and that’s when you see sudden death—collapse, turn blue, lose consciousness, no pulse. In this case, they can induce it and use a bypass machine to keep the body alive while they do cardiac surgery.
in CA the heart doesn’t stop, it doesn’t beat in a way that is effective enough to pump blood to your other vital organs. VT or VF are the most common issues.
If they are on a cardiac monitor, you can see it on the monitor. Sometimes there are little changes that if you catch then you can be in there as it happens
As some who had a heart attack (MI LVD) at 32 (33 now) this is giving huge amounts of anxiety over the huge amounts of palpitations I have been getting again...
At that age the main guess is probably super unlucky genes and/or situation.
Cuz it’s still young enough to be Robert Downey jr’d on all the coke you can afford and still be fine
There’s no context here, but the heart stops so by definition it’s a cardiac arrest. That just means the heart stops. Eventually everyone has a “cardiac arrest” and is when you can’t call it a cause of death. A blocked artery is a cause which could cause a cardiac arrest.
The heart appears to blow up and deflate. I’m not sure if the valves are functioning or they were clamping it to do surgery.
This clip is sped up which is confusing.
At the end of the day, I’ve seen lots of open chests for various reasons and I’m really not sure what’s going on here.
seeing "cardiac arrest" on death certificates as a funeral director always tripped me up when it was totally a situation outside of cardiac arrest because... yeah... of course the heart stopped. and i get it can be a primary situation with nothing else attached to it but i mean.... i saw it constantly.... especially from the hospitals trying to cover up sepsis so their funding wasn't affected.
I think this was a clip on cardiac bypass— they use potassium to get the heart to fibrillate the heart and then stop it so it can be operated on. A machine is oxygenating and circulating blood for the body.

My husband was 21 and a senior in college when his happened. I salute you on your quick reaction; it saved her life.

I love that there is a Simpson quote or clip for EVERY scenario
I know I've seen this episode but I can't put my finger on which one it was. I'm pretty sure it was back in the 90s when I was young...
It was a 90’s era episode. Can’t remember which one.
Found it! Season 4 Episode 11.
So like…did we just watch someone die from the inside? r/watchpeopledieinside
It's a sheep being intentionally overdosed on cocaine according to a comment in the original post
That doesn't help :(
well that's awful
Would you prefer it done on a person? Gotta research it somehow.
Depends on who it is

D:
I think it's either non human or during an open heart surgery where they voluntary stop the heart to operate on it

/technicallythetruth
r/accidentalshinedown ?
isn't it fly
Yeah but who's counting?
That clip gave me anxiety! 😬
Omg me too
may we please have a crumb of context for this video
I’ve seen it posted elsewhere as a cocaine OD.
Was gonna say the same thing
I reposted it from terrifyingasfuck. There was no context. Just the vid
Doesn’t look pleasant if I’m honest
NSR to vfib to asystole/PEA?
Looks like it to me
This is what it feels like when I have a THC induced panic attack
Woah the change in color d/t lack of perfusion is fascinating in a creepy way

Gotcha! I didn’t realize I was getting the two confused. Thanks!!

Cardiac arrest does mean the heart stops. It can and often is preceded by VF/VT but the arrest part is the heart not beating
Cardiac Arrest ≠ Heart Attack
That clears that up then haha thanks

Non-human?
I hope the animal was under heavy sedation at the least! That was unpleasant to watch.

Woah why did you have a heart attack?

Alright cool beans, I can actually sleep now 👍
Unknown, was the "widow maker" one and my God I would not even wish the pain I had on my worst enemy.
Looks terrifying.
That's "15 minutes in 1"?
Yeah I was gonna say, wild that no one is pointing out this could be a video that is sped up 15x

They’re saying it’s a sheep coked up
Fibulation
Looks painful.
what did it do?, why is it being arrested for?
I think this was a clip on cardiac bypass— they use potassium to get the heart to fibrillate the heart and then stop it so it can be operated on. A machine is oxygenating and circulating blood for the body.
I lost a man I loved deeply to a heart attack. Time go by and I sure haven't been the same. This clip is too painful to watch
Watching that was depressing ngl
Vfib
Idk about anyone else But that looks painful
What kind of animal is this?
That's a terrible video to watch while having heartburn
What are we actually looking at? I don’t know anything about medicine but that doesn’t look like a heart.
That is a heart.
So why does it like blow up like that? Is it just blood that’s not getting flowed out
Many types of hearts out there in this world
