Dallas McCarver dead

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.

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.

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

1:30 every time I do mouth to mouth it's like there's something in his throat I can't roll him over to get it out. What it sounds like to me.

The Sun reported this: His pal Josh Lernartowicz called emergency services in Florida saying: “There’s something in his throat. Every time I do mouth-to-mouth there’s like something in his throat I can’t get it out.


“He just gargles out. He was eating something.”

At the very end you can hear the paramedic ask "you know what happened to him". His friend says "no I found him face down and he has been using insulin".

At no point during the call does he ever say any food is in his throat. Not 1 single time.

[Bouncer]

She distinctly asks him "has he been eating anything" and the guys clearly says "nothing".

[Bouncer]

yup. definitely heard the guy say "he's been having insulin".

could have taken a shot and waited too long to eat. diabetic shock kicked in while he was trying to get food into his stomach.
