you and that doctor are idiots

call a hospital ask any doctor it has been attempted only reason it is not is blood poison. I forget half the people on this board make 8.75 a hour amazing

READ about it the brain can go with out blood for a period of time wow what do you pass out mail for a living?

Re: If Michael Jackson had Cardiac Arrest why was he not GIVEN a heart transplant!?!!

I have a friend that's is becoming a doctor at Harvard med why was this man not given a heart transplant, he suggested someone as important as mj why was that not attempted, I see why the family asked for a 2nd autopsy

if your friend said this and he is in harvard med he is wasting his money. cardiac arrest is so sudden you dont have a chance for a transplant and plus you gotta find a matching donor and coodinate it. besides just because he went into arrest doesnt mean he needed a transplant it just means that something at the time made his heart stop. he could have had the most healthy heart in the world and still went into arrest. if they could have revived him there still would have been no need for a transplant.
u may be thinking of heart failure or cardiomyopathy or something

Re: If Michael Jackson had Cardiac Arrest why was he not GIVEN a heart transplant!?!!

His problem wasn't necessarily a "bad heart." It was some sort of disruption that short-circuited it. Even if it was feasible to transplant a "compatible" heart into a dying patient (which it isn't), the new heart would likely have similar issues. The task at hand was to RE-start the heart, and not replace it.

thank you blunt but some cases have worked ..... these guys acted as if it's far fetched but it really was not..

What is cardiac arrest?

Cardiac arrest is the sudden, abrupt loss of heart function. The victim may or may not have diagnosed heart disease. It's also called sudden cardiac arrest or unexpected cardiac arrest. Sudden death (also called sudden cardiac death) occurs within minutes after symptoms appear.

You cannot put a new heart in a cat that has been dead for an hour. They would have needed to have him on support first, then do the switch.

Fuckin chump :smh::smh:
 
Re: If Michael Jackson had Cardiac Arrest why was he not GIVEN a heart transplant!?!!

the heart stops but the brain has time and machines can pump blood to organs you guys did not know this...?

dude your brain only has a max of like 5 minutes after there is no oxygen and you're DONE. WTF have you been smoking man cardiac arrest gives no warning!

It's NEVER worked (or been tried) on a patient who's in cardiac arrest unrelated to a scheduled transplant operation. That's not the idea behind it. THE PATIENT HAS TO BE STABLE. You have to SAVE him as he is first, and not stop to perform a needless 10-hour heart operation without even knowing the cause of the problem.

they had two choices transplant or restart the current one because they brain can only go so long without blood flow

it's two pages already. dude is a troll. stop feeding him and ig dude now.
 
Re: If Michael Jackson had Cardiac Arrest why was he not GIVEN a heart transplant!?!!

dumbass the brain only has up to 5 minutes when the heart stops unless u got some grade a cpr going from the start of arrest.

u must be like 9 or something. I work in an ICU where people arrest everyday and it has never during my tenure been suggested a heart transplant just for cardiac arrest. you fix the problem that led to the arrest and then the heart goes back to functioning correctly unless there is underlying heart disease. we have no proof that he had heart disease
 
Re: If Michael Jackson had Cardiac Arrest why was he not GIVEN a heart transplant!?!!

thank you blunt but some cases have worked ..... these guys acted as if it's far fetched but it really was not..

so hospitals have a room with several hearts ready to be transplanted huh?

nevermind all of the other intricacies that go into a transplant surgery too

but we're just going to do an intensive transplant on all emergency patients with bad or good hearts when they go into a cardiac arrest

yeah!!!

dude i suspect your just entering the 9th or 10th grade if that
 
Re: If Michael Jackson had Cardiac Arrest why was he not GIVEN a heart transplant!?!!


boy jumps in water boy spends 1hour in water heart goes into Cardiac Arrest boy comes out of water heart is restarted boy makes full recovery. I don't know if you know this but with Cardiac Arrest no blood moves in the brain, THE BRAIN can go 1 hour or more with no blood movement now fuck off dumb ass.

another W:eek:W

ive never known someone to spend an entire hour underwater and live

this is a fucking miracle...nevermind his lungs and oxygen tho

you should really write a book about this phenomenon

yeah go for it kid

maybe in an infant or young child in nearly freezing circumstances on rare occasions. and only then because the oxygen demand for the brain is greatly decreased due to decreased metabolism during the freezing state. it is not the norm or even remotely common for the brain to function or live after 5 minutes of anoxia. i have seen it too many times.

cool but it was not as far fetched as everyone made it seem blood poison is also one of the major reason for lack of heart transplant
 
Re: If Michael Jackson had Cardiac Arrest why was he not GIVEN a heart transplant!?!!

cool....what do you do in the icu? anesthesiologist? nurse? doc? :cool: how long have you had that gig?

I'm an RN for 5 years now. we see cardiac arrest commonly. Many people survive if it happens in ICU but if it happens out in the community prognosis aint that good.
Thats why when we heard the news at work that he was in arrest before they announced he was dead we knew he was dead. because its is hard to get the heart restarted after cardiac arrest if you do not know the reason it stopped and are out of the hospital and away from ACLS drugs and a defibrillator.

nah man not trying to make you feel bad but it is VERY far fetched. about as far fetched as treating a collapsed lung with a lung transplant.

also the major reasons for a not having a transplant are:
lack of matching donor
no transplant/harvest team on standby
not being a transplant candidate (co-morbidities)
being dead for an hour or so already

btw u can still have the transplant with poisoning. they will give u immunosupressants and corticosteriods like prednisone

say what u want retard

but my niece is 12 years old and has attended health and sciences classes

she wouldve never said the dumb shit u spewed today

so either youre extremely young or extremely retarded

possibly a combination of both
 
Re: If Michael Jackson had Cardiac Arrest why was he not GIVEN a heart transplant!?!!

thats a cool gig... in my next life i hope to do something like that.... a doc/rn, or whatever. that line of work always intrigued me. props.. :cool::cool:

thanks
it is exciting/fast paced. my 12hrs go by so quick. especially on fridays and saturdays cause we r 1 of 2 trauma centers in Long Beach

do that shit in this life. my next step is med school. i shoulda done it in the first place but i was discouraged seeing the shit my dad had to go through to become a doc. now looking back i shoulda manned up and did it the first time around.
i would love to do trauma/general surgery in the ER
 
Re: If Michael Jackson had Cardiac Arrest why was he not GIVEN a heart transplant!?!!

Give him a break. How do you think he can understand cardiology when he doesn't grasp the concept of subject/verb agreement?

First of all there are circumstances that are different than the MJ case, number one, most likely the boy fell into freezing water, triggering an altered state of being for the boy (where his system is in a suspended state, heart rate is lowered, oxygen is prioritised to the brain, organs shut down, and breathing stops.) In freezing temperatures a body can remain in this suspended state for as long as a hour - this is why the body temp is lowered during certain heart operations where the heart is arrested.
In MJ's case his body was not frozen or in a suspended state, like Alex said, there is no way you can find a proper doner in that quick period of time. If MJ was suffering from a heart condition that subjected him to cardiac arrest, then perhaps they could have given a life saving heart, ahead of time.
But in this case, it was way too late to do anything to save Jackson.
