AKA things I've gotten wrong on rounds so you don't have to.
First up: the basics

In the name of not gatekeeping information, here’s the skincare routine printout I came across on my dermatology rotation. I wish I could give credit to the dermatologist who wrote it but I don’t know who it was!!
If you have an #AED, use it
➡️ Open their shirt & attach AED pads
➡️ AED will analyze rhythm & tell you if shock is needed (not all rhythms are shockable)
➡️ If shock is needed, ensure no one is touching the person & press “shock”
➡️ Resume CPR afterward
Helpful infographic:
➡️ Push hard & fast in the center of the chest 100-120x per minute
➡️ Aim to compress the chest a depth of 2 inches w/ each push
➡️ Allow complete chest recoil before the next compression
➡️ No mouth-to-mouth needed

A message from a hospital pastor:
May I humbly request not to call #DamarHamlin’s recovery a "miracle”?
It wasn't a miracle. He had a sudden cardiac arrest with a shockable rhythm, received enough oxygen to his brain to preserve it through CPR, and was shocked back into rhythm.
