Resuscitation today: How to defibrillate an asystole with an AED and a battery-jumper-cable

[TraumaTeam4ever]

AED need about 10 second to diagnose the rhythm, so there are no way it shock that fast

and according Wikipedia:

AED, like all defibrillators, are not designed to shock asystole ("flat line') as this will not have a positive clinical outcome. The asystolic patient only has a chance of survival if, through a combination of CPR and cardiac stimulant drugs, one of the shockable rhythms can be established, which makes it imperative for CPR to be carried out prior to the arrival of a defibrillator.

American Med Supply is giving away a free AED... All you have to do is enter the drawing, it's that easy. Plus, we are giving away a bunch of other great gifts and prizes all year long. Look up American Med Supply on YouTube for all the details. No purchase required, and it's free to sign up.

Unless you got the fantastic car you might be making a mistake , if you got a fantastic car then just do what he say

[macthefireman]

The German dialogue on screen correctly critiques the CPR and defibrillation pointing out which parts are "Korrekt" and which parts wrong. In the English dialogue, the discussion about recharge times is simply wrong and the AED will not deliver a shock until after it has analysed AND found a shockable rhythm such as VF or VT. Even then it won't shock without pressing the button. Basically what you see here is dramatic rubbish. Do a course and don't waste time looking for a pulse!

[elmelapelas]

mmm yumi nipples

[Nikifuj908]

Oh and there's no need to rip open the shirt either.

[Nikifuj908]

You don't shock a flatline, woman. You give adrenalin and atropine.

[juliabohemian]

Also- I don't take medical advice from a talking car.

[Annalein812]

Hahahaha total gut gemacht :D

[psychocloud]

can't defibrillate asystole, jackasses...

[2704heatherwolf]

she dropped his head kinda hard on the ground

[jenscripter]

Um...aren't you supposed to check his breathing and pulse BEFORE you fry him?!

[KPSKS]

Actually, you are not. Checking pulse is obsolete for laymen, regarding the latest ERC guidelines of 2005. But checking pulse is still up to date, third step after talking to the person and asking for help of onlookers.

[dan813r]

@KPSKS ABC Open airway, look listen feel, if pt is not breathing give 2 breathes one second in duration to avoid gastric destintion, check pulse, 5 no longer than 10 seconds. Unless pt is hypothermic then its 30 no longer than 45, no pulse, start compressions 30/2 5 cycles attach aed let it analyse, aed's only shock in vtact and vfib. why would attach the aed first what if the pt does have a pulse? and if he doesnt you just wasted time hooking up the aed.

[KPSKS]

Sorry, but you're wrong. Giving breathe first and checking pulse is NOT in the actual guidelines by the ERC and therefor obsolete. Checking pulse is even not recommended for docs and paramedics, bc there are studies that you can't always determine whether there is a pulse or not.

AED is not bad for laymen, bc it informs them about what to do.

Btw, I meant "checkig breathing" not "checking pulse"...

[dan813r]

@KPSKS ahh I see, I run medical calls with a fire department on a first responder level of care. We go by AHA not ERC so I understand your point of view there. However, you shouild check out the american heart CPR guidelines they are the golden standard in my opinion, checking for resperations and pulse just sets you up for cpr. You are correct, you will not be able to get a pulse on fine vfib, and your aed will shock in vfib, but the key is to delay the onset of biological death

[dan813r]

@KPSKS so distributing 100% o2 and circulating oxygenated blood to delay the onset of biological death while the aed is prepaired and applyed to the pt is beneficial in the pt chances of survival.

[juliabohemian]

The guy above is correct. ABC-airway, breathing, circulation. You assess those things FIRST, taking no more than 15 seconds to find a carotid pulse, then you give two breaths, THEN begin your chest compressions. There are five sets of thirty, spaced apart by two breaths either by mouth (with the nose covered) or by ambuvac.

[juliabohemian]

@KPSKS "Checking pulse is even not recommended for docs and paramedics"-That's news to me. I can't even imagine where you would have gotten such misinformation. The only thing I can think of that might have given you that impression is that some of the newer automatic d-fibs will actually assess the patient for you, so that you wouldn't have to check their pulse. Then they will deliver the appropriate shock.

[juliabohemian]

@KPSKS If the patient still isn't conscious after five cycles, you assess once more, taking no more than 15 seconds to check for pulse and feel and listen for breath sounds. If necessary, you start the cycle all over again. You keep going until they are revived or until a qualified person (physician or coroner) pronounces them dead.

[juliabohemian]

@KPSKS AED can be used for asystole. But it is rarely successful once there is literally no heart rhythm. D-fib is designed to bring the heart back into a normal sinus rhythm, if the patient is in v-tac, v-fic, atrial flutter or has any other type of arrhythmia. Only on TV shows do you see people being shocked back into sinus, after having gone in asystole. I have only seen it done once in person and the patient was hypothermic, which increases their chances of survival.

[juliabohemian]

@juliabohemian I mean v-fib...

[dan813r]

@KPSKS Also, how are you going to talk to the pt if they are in full arrest with would be this situation.

[KPSKS]

Actually, I meant checking BREATHING ;-)

[xxEster]

Kitt already did that, he said that mike didn't had a pulse, that he's dead

[Jojolovesesther]

You suppose to, but in this case KITT already told Sarah Mike is dead!

[joelgreatguy]

@jenscripter an aed wont shock someone if they dont have a shockable rhythm. but you are suposed to check pulse and breathing

[AlchemicalDavid]

@jenscripter

Not when your tits are hanging out! It's resuscitation law!

[StyleDragon79]

einfach geil wenn mir sowas passiert schließ ich den Defi einfach an den zigaretten anzünder an XDDD

[cortilski]

aber arschlustig

[cortilski]

nebenan bemerkt defibriliert man keine asystolie man schießt ins ventrikuläre flimmern

[Bambennos]

LOOOL

Danke für das Video xD

Super Analyse xDDD

[asshemey05]

omg..im dyin to watch this series...i never know a new Knight Rider series was released!!

[hoffix1977]

LOOOOL ... Schön, dass ich als LRA nicht mal mehr großartig Unterrichte machen muss ... ich werd denen einfach dieses Video zeigen *lach*

[KPSKS]

Sternum-Pad: Rechte Gesichtshälfte,

Apex-Pad: Linke Gesichtshälfte.

Und ab geht die Grillparty ;-)

[Bavarian0girl]

Ich bin selbst im Roten Kreuz tätig und weiß daher wie so ein AED funktioniert und eigentlich mach ich über so was keinen Witz aber das ist so was von verdammt lächerlich und krank das es schon wieder zum brüllen komisch ist :D

[capn134]

ha ha ha....how dumb....an unwitnessed arrest calls for 2 minutes of uninterrupted compressions prior to a defibrillation attempt

[LeoTheGerrard]

lol extrem geiles video! hihi. is immer so lustig wenn man sich reanimation und andere erste hilfe in filmen ansieht um sie dann zu analysiern ;-)

[123kartoffelbrei]

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooomg .... wie schlecht...

[crabe04]

Ich hab das anderst gelernt bei der Sanitäts ausbildung Grins

[skyabove93]

i didn't know that Knight Rider got a cpr moment. lol! and is the car's voice is Val Kimler?

[al3xband]

omfg!! sarah's wonder bra really does wonder to her boobs!!!

[Taccoslove]

From what series/Movie is this, please? :)

[KPSKS]

From the new Knight Rider series which started in the US last year. It's episode 4, "A Hard Day's Knight".
