@KDTrey5 @THELIFEOFPABLOx Facts!!!

[Osita Onugha @chestmd]

@JustinOlivera_1 @OfficialSTSA Sorry I couldn’t be there but looks like you had a packed room. #wegotmoretodo.

[Osita Onugha @chestmd]

@Ballislife This is a legit And1 mixtape in the NBA.

[Osita Onugha @chestmd]

The fact that Bronny James is already out of the ICU is a great sign. 🙏🏾 Wishing and praying for a speedy recovery.

[Osita Onugha @chestmd]

@JustinOlivera_1 @ABCTS_1999 @OfficialSTSA Justin crushed it. This is what mentorship looks like.

[Osita Onugha @chestmd]

@LakersNation Yes!!!

[Laker Central @LakerCentral365]

What Perk said was reasonable but they’re up there ke keing like he said the Lakers would sweep the playoffs. Lame coverage.

[Osita Onugha @chestmd]

Sabonis could have a rib fracture but more likely a bone bruise/contusion of the rib after Draymond stomped his chest. He will need some time for the swelling to dissipate but likely will play game 3. Draymond on the other hand… suspension?

[Osita Onugha @chestmd]

Brock Purdy likely has a complete tear if his UCL. If so, will have to undergo Tommy John Surgery and will be out for a year. Sucks. Wishing him the best in his recovery.

[Osita Onugha @chestmd]

@anniefoxweather @EWRairport Yes.

[Osita Onugha @chestmd]

Complete disaster @EWRairport. Opened new terminal today. Nothing worked. Power went out. Clear machines crashed. Security line out of the airport. Tons of passengers missed flights. No communication. Complete and utter debacle of a roll out. @EWRairport do better

[Osita Onugha @chestmd]

@LaurenDue12 @EWRairport @News12NJ Yes. We missed our flight like many others. Re booking was a nightmare. Ran out of seats. Sent passengers to JFK. We were lucky to get 2 of the last seats but my bro couldn’t. I had to cancel patients scheduled to see me today.

[Osita Onugha @chestmd]

@AnJan54570587 @EWRairport No. And opening of the new terminal A was a complete disaster. Tons of passengers missed flights including us. Ruined my entire day.

[Osita Onugha @chestmd]

Complete disaster at EWR. Opened new terminal today. Nothing worked. Power went out. Clear machines crashed. Security line out of the airport. Tons of passengers missed flights. Complete and utter debacle of a roll out.

My take from the Damar Hamlin news conference by UC 1No new injuries or diagnosis means that Commotio Cordis is the very likely dx. 2Only 1 round of CPR and 1 shock is an extremely good sign. 3Planning discharge home means a meaningful recovery. 4 option to return to nfl is open

[Osita Onugha @chestmd]

Commotio cordis is extremely rare. If all or studies are negative and Demar Hamlin has it, this is likely the first case playing football. All others were typically associated with baseballs, puck, martial arts, etc. Force required typically upwards of 40mph in small impact area

[Osita Onugha @chestmd]

@cherrychick124 @trader_drunken Trying to provide a hopeful outlook as this scenario has happened in sports before and athletes like Chris Pronger have gone on to play 12 years. Physicians are asked to prognosticate the future to give insight to what this could mean for patients.

[Osita Onugha @chestmd]

For those concerned about Damar Hamlin’s future in the NFL. If this is Commotio Cordis, unlucky hit to the chest at the wrong millisecond, his career is not necessarily over. He will need undergo testing and a cardiac monitoring for weeks. Likely out for the season.

[Osita Onugha @chestmd]

@RustyJEST Yes. Chris Pronger had a puck to the chest causing the same symptoms. He had a much quicker recovery. Link to vid here. https://t.co/sHfDWYdMAw Reports are Damar Hamlin required multiple rounds of CPR and multiple shocks. Let’s pray that he’s has a similar recovery.

[Osita Onugha @chestmd]

@WhoisTylerFrey I agree. He is intubated and has a pulse. Those are good signs. His mom is with him. Those are amazing signs that his life is not currently in grave danger.
