lol obviously the point isn't who's right or wrong that doesn't matter I was joking. But that's crazy. He should've atleast had quick sugars like from soda or juice following his shot to help hold him back. That's why he was so massive. Such a shame.

Yeah he definitely said insulin but he also said something about food blockage and the damn 911 operator said nothing about removing the blockage before trying cpr.

You don't remove the blockage immediately you start with chest compressions then look inside the mouth for any blockage, if when you do see something then you can try to remove it.

He probably went into diabetic shock while trying to shuttle in food, went unconscious and the food ended up compromising his airway

Nah bro, ABCs of CPR. A is for airway. Always check for blockage of the airway (usually from the tongue) then tilt head back. B is for breathing, listening for breathing Last step is C for circulation, checking at the carotid artery. Only then do you start chest compressions. Never do chest compressions when a simple Heimlich will do or if the victim already has a pulse.

No sir. For the unresponsive patient with a severe foreign body airway obstruction, who is not breathing, you begin chest compressions as you would with CPR. (keep in mind this is not CPR. He is not undergoing cardiac arrest. He has food lodged and can't breathe) after doing 30 chest compressions you perform the tongue-jaw lift maneuver this allows you to see the back of the pt's oropharnyx. If you can see the object then you can attempt to remove it. If you can't see the object, you go back to starting with the 30 chest compressions and you repeat.. as an EMT, after not being able to see the foreign body, you would ventilate, if you can't ventilate you'd repeat the whole process.

Now if we're talking about someone who is cool, pale, diaphoretic (meaning sweating a lot), apneic (not breathing) and pulseless. All signs of cardiac arrest. Then you open the airway with head tilt chin lift if no spinal injury is suspected. If so perform jaw thrust maneuver. Make sure the tongue or loose dentures isn't occluding the airway. And begin chest compressions at rate of 30 chest compressions and 2 breaths. This rate varies with age.

These are two different but very similar resuscitation techniques for different scenarios.

But the ABCs is good for the general public to know just in case something were to ever happen to someone close to them. So it's awesome that you know that. Not that many people do.

He also clearly says in the audio that he hadn't been eating when she asked him. He never said he saw anything in his throat, just that he was gargling after mouth to mouth.

What he does say clearly twice is that he was using insulin.

I got you. It's likely he was already dead a while before the call so it's probably moot anyway. Hopefully the autopsy is made public.

Yes dude. It was insulin shock. He probably took too much insulin but didn't have enough blood glucose. The gurgling sound is a sign of abnormal breathing. If a patient is choking on something there is no air going in or out. They can't cough they're completely blocked. So he was still breathing just not efficiently. Crazy shit dude.

I was actually pissed off for a bit that this happened to him. He passed in such a stupid way. Like it's too soon, it shouldn't had happen.

Very sad times. He was a huge talent

[jack tors]

my impression is he was very well liked by all. big personality could have been anything he put his mind too

sad times

[rado]

Am I being insensitive when I say it's sad but I have no sympathy for his death?


You play with fire and you get burned, am I suppose to feel bad AFTER your burn?

Again, I understand someone has died, but he did accelerate the issue.

someone could say the exact same thing about you. guy in his 40's, using steroids for years, family history of bad heart genetics, dropped dead from a massive heart attack. is anyone supposed to feel bad? you were playing with fire..

he was abusing drugs a fuck load more then me or you are but that's besides the point. people would still see it as abuse and "playing with fire".

so are you being insensitive? it's a matter of perspective I guess.
