SmithraVery scary scene at the Bills Bengals game. Damar Hamlin took a hit. He stood up and then collapsed. He was down for more than 9 minutes as emergency crews administered CPR. An ambulance was brought onto the field. I am not sure how they can or should continue to play tonight. #BuffaloBills #Bengals
Elaine@smithra It looked like sudden cardiac arrest. The abrupt loss of heart function, breathing and consciousness.
@Lainey Yes, seems likely commotio cordis caused by the shoulder of the Bengals receiver hitting his chest. If so, I just hope they got CPR started and used an AED quickly.
@smithra this is what I don’t understand. Everything we heard last night and I’m reading this morning says CPR was started immediately. But I haven’t heard one mention of an AED, have you?
