revived…

(kamay ko yan, nag aambubag ako)
i was on my way out of the intensive care unit when i heard the hospital’s intercom boom with the phrase “paging all nurses on duty, code red to ER now!” call me bad pero a code red excites me(just like madamme che che lolz) - action to baby! lolz…
from the ICU, i took the cardiac board and the endotracheal set (the ET set is what doctors use to help support the respirations of a patient dying or not)…
sakto! there was a need to revive the patient because the patient was in cardiac and pulmonary arrest…
with adrenaline pumping through my veins, walang panicky feeling, pero there was a need to do things fast…
the patient’s pupils were dilated but still reactive to light, there were minor lacerations and abrasions on the face but his abdomen has a bulge which looked like the area hit by the ten wheeler truck, we were all guessing that there was some organ or blood vessel that ruptured upon impact inside his abdominal cavity which might be causing severe internal bleeding, luckily, the patient has a cardiac rate but the blood pressure can only be taken through palpation. we were performing continuous ambu-bagging, started an IV line and dripped his fluids fast to spike up the BP, pushed 3 ampules of epinephrine to support the patient’s heart in pumping blood, monitored his NVS and VS……………..
eventually, the patient was revived… before i left the hospital, the patient was conscious, and with spontaneous breathing…
in a previous entry, i mentioned there that i would like to see a patient in cardio and pulmonary arrest revived. kumbaga, us nurses and doctors would steal him back from kamatayan’s kalawit, and tonight, we did.
again, nothing beats the power of prayer…….
pero let’s accept the fact that not all patients will ever be revived and stolen back from kamatayan’s kalawit.
