Dr Dave12871 year ago It's doubtful that aspirin threw the clot. Evidence shows that aspirin may help dissolve clots for individuals who are unable to take traditional anticoagulants. Chances are that a small bump or maybe he plopped on the cot is what threw the clot. They can go suddenly and without warning. If they worked on him for an hour then they actually did more than the national standard. Cardiac arrest treatment in the ambulance is the SAME treatment you get in the hospital. Same drugs same cpr same number of shocks intubation etc. they definitely did everything they could and the EMS medical direction told them to discontinue and call it in the field. What bothers me, is that they already had him loaded.....soon as they got the extra hands they needed they should have gone straight to the ED instead of staying there.

We did this under the assumption of attacking any potential clots. You are also correct about the quality of the care being equal to the hospital. Same drugs, same level of care the docs would give in a hospital setting. And most paramedics are in contact with the hospital. But sadly in the end, there is absolutely ZERO conciliation to the family if their loved one dies. Rodney will be missed.
