[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Damar Hamlin incident got me thinking. He got attention in less than a minute and happily survived. This isn't typical.

Many people are likely home when this happens like Lisa Marie, and often home alone. Homes don't typically have defibrillators or trained medical professionals. The death rate from out of hospital cardiac arrests is huge.[/quote]

After the Hamlin incident, doctors said your best bet for surviving such a thing is to have it happen at a major sporting event, or airport.[/quote]

I think it also helps to be a to notch athlete, in your 20s with no history of drug use. There is literally no comparison. [/quote]

And to get cpr and a defibrillator within a minute of your heart stopping. Almost nobody who has cardiac arrest at home and has to wait for an ambulance to arrive to have their heart shocked back into rhythm survives at all. Or if they do, they often have a terrible anoxic brain injury.

Hamlin and Presly went into cardiac arrest for entirely different reasons. Their situations have little in common.  Defibrillators and CPR are only going to be successful on certain causes of cardiac arrest. [/quote]

We don’t know why Presley went into cardiac arrest. It may have just been some sort of arrhythmia in which case quick cpr and a shock likely would have saved her, like it did Hamlin.  No matter the reason for cardiac arrest, the best chance of survival is immediate cpr and defibrillation to prevent the brain from being without oxygen too long. [/quote]

She has family history of heart issues. This isn't complicated.[/quote]

I mean, yes, she did, but she seemed VERY altered and out of it at the Golden Globes (on video staggering and grabbing for an arm, speech odd, and the speech she gave at Graceland for Elvis’s birthday made her seem *very* mentally/emotionally unstable.

But either way, no one deserves to die at 54. RIP.[/quote]
