[@pa_cipher2533]

I'm a CPR instructor, it's not very hard so don't be intimidated to get certified. Glad they're bringing attention to CPR training

[@Emmahghostgirl]

If the aed can’t shock someone if your heart is beating fine then why do they always say clear before shocking someone? (Genuinely curious can’t find an answer on google)

[@pa_cipher2533]

@Emmah Sawyer The AED also monitors for a heart beat to determine if a shock is needed. If you are touching the patient you could interfere with the machine and give it a false positive. Also, if a shock is advised it is an electrical current and if it is shocking the patient but you are touching them the shock may travel from their body into yours.

[@Emmahghostgirl]

Thank you so much for the response! I never knew that and it’s a really good thing to know!

[@danieldiazdeleon1675]

If you are a CPR instructor you probably know that there was a BIG mistake here… before starting chest compression you always have to check for pulse first

[@Lex_brooke]

@@danieldiazdeleon1675 Not necessarily, it's possible to not feel a pulse, especially if you don't know what you're doing. If the person isn't breathing and non-responsive, the next move is to start CPR

[@Seapatico]

That moment when they came in real hot with that goofball, GMMORE energy and ran FACE FIRST into a very serious topic and a man in tears about almost dying. 🥴

[@gennyb.3932]

As a NP and an RN for over 30 years who worked many of those years in the emergency department, much respect to you guys for doing this today! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve come upon accidents or people in the community who have been down and needed quick attention, and no one has stopped to help them. The bystander effect is a real thing. Learn CPR, you can save the life of someone you love, or even someone you don’t know. ❤

[@fancynecromancy]

Link is always known as the difficult one. He's so incredibly empathetic. Love these guys.

[@HeyLetsTalkAboutIt]

As a medic, I totally love this episode. Everyone should learn CPR and not be afraid to use it if needed!

[@Emmahghostgirl]

If the aed can’t shock someone if there heart is fine and beating why do they always say clear before shocking someone? I’m very curious and was hoping you could tell me!

[@FlipManGoFlip]

@@Emmahghostgirl an AED will analyze for shockable cardiac rhythms, when someone is in cardiac arrest they’re typically in one of 4 rhythms: asystole, PEA, ventricular tachycardia, and ventricular fibrillation. So when they’re saying the AED can’t shock you they’re saying it will only shock V-fib or V-tach. Do you don’t want to risk being shocked by an AED by touching someone who’s being defibrillated.

[@danieldiazdeleon1675]

If you are a doctor you should know there was a big mistake here ! You always have to check for pulse before starting chest compressions

[@HeyLetsTalkAboutIt]

@@danieldiazdeleon1675 I never claimed that I was a doctor. I clearly stated that I’m a medic. You obviously check pulses before you do CPR in anyone. You’re not going to do CPR on someone with a pulse.

[@andrearaia8695]

[@jessicabarley7732]

I learned CPR over a decade ago and had not have to use it until the last 8 months. In the last 8 months I have used it on 2 people. One a random stranger and one my brother in law. It is definitely something that is good for everyone to learn.

[@LadyInTheTree]

It’s important to also keep up to date with best CPR practices. For the first few years of my training breaths were still and aspect of CPR and now it’s just compressions. I wish they were able to use a training AED so people could have seen the steps and how simple it is to use. They really do talk to you and walk you through every step - even letting you know if one needs to continue compressions or if the person’s heart has returned to a normal rhythm. Honestly it’s pretty amazing.

[@sweetnesisbeast]

What’s weird is I took training from 2020 and Red Cross taught us to still do compressions

[@NobelNighthawk274]

I got certified last week and we still do rescue breaths.

[@MattKeller]

Regular people should take training every decade because standards and best practices change over time. There are still people who think you need to alternate compressions and breathing because that's what they learned 20 years ago but now they say it's better to continue compressions.

[@Shebeast3]

yes!❤

[@thehamlad]

@@NobelNighthawk274 I got certified this past week and they taught us breaths, but also told us that we are only supposed to do hands-only CPR. Maybe it is a regional difference?

[@HighTideSoaps]

This was SO cool. Should keep this format, call it Health Hacks or something. Could save some lives! Next learn the Heimlich Maneuver.

[@giuliacacciatore4765]

yes!

[@meenaz1934]

So I cried and laughed during this episode but it is so important that everyone knows how to do CPR effectively. I hope everyone watching never has to use it ❤

“Stayin’ Alive” as the reference song for the right bpm is just… so on the nose 😭 Anyway, thank you so much for this! More people should really learn how to properly do this.

Most people think its a 1 in a million chance that you'll need to perform CPR on someone. Will never forget last year, when the whole world was watching the Buffalo Bills vs Bengals, and Damar Hamlin collapsed on the field. Luckily medical teams were quick on what they needed to do. You never know when that time will come and you just need to be prepared for it. Awesome video! We love JT!

the rib breaking is I think what deters people you're also supposed to lift their chin though before you begin to give them the best chance of getting a clear airway I'm feeling grateful for a healthy ticker rn :)

[@kliffy13]

Just so people know it is possible to do such strong CPR that you're perfusing the brain to the point that the person wakes up. It's alarming for you and the person, but if you stop, they will go unresponsive again. They're also going to be confused during that time, of course. -Paramedic

[@naffy113]

So you keep going until help arrives even if the person is awake? Is the AED not needed then too?

[@kliffy13]

@@naffy113 AED is still necessary. If they're in a shockable rhythm, that's their best chance of returning to a normal heart rhythm. CPR only keeps the blood pumping, rarely will it bring them back to a normal rhythm.

[@Emmahghostgirl]

If the aed can’t shock someone with a normal heart rhythm why do they always say clear before shocking someone? I can’t find the answer on google lol

[@kliffy13]

@@Emmahghostgirl The AED can shock you through someone else. When they say it can't shock someone with a normal heart rhythm, that would be if the pads were on you and your heart was beating as normal.
