Haiti Medical Relief - Cardiac Arrest Patient (GRAPHIC)

The Medical team treats a patient who goes into cardiac arrest. After getting pulses and respirations back, she is transported to the General Hospital in Port-au-Prince where she ultimately died. This footage shows the incredible works of the medical team as they work selflessly and provide an incredible amount of the highest quality care available to anyone.

This was so sad. I mean, they did all they could yet it was just not to be. :( Laughing, I know it was nervous laughing. I mean, these medics were the ONE$S WHO WORKED TO TRY TO REVICE this patient. But it was just not to be. THANK YOU so much for uploading this video for us to see.

@chocolatecharliee im sure shes not finding it funny, but u have to learn how to stay calm during this. what good would it do if she was panicking? i agree..laughing is not cool..but im sure she wasnt laughing for the joy of it...like Zacterry said..it was probably a nervous laugh.

@chocolatecharliee some people do what they call a nervous laugh but i agree with you there was nothing funny

@redemption762 Regaining a pulse seems far from "meaningless"

You guys did the best you could based on her condition. And remember, you're always welcome to take critically ill patients to the Medishare/University of Miami tent hospital at Toussaint Airport.
