my patient....
severe MI - i mean - Trop I of 10.80!!!!
and then he arrested - after i was meant to go home...
had to call a code - knowing that he was dead when i got there...
started compressions...team came...we knew it was over....
it sucked...had to face the family - who knew it was coming...
i know i did what i needed to do...i went down the NSTEMI route...
the regs i asked seemed to think so...i think...
but maybe if i got a reg down earlier....maybe something would've changed?
i know objectively, medically, nothing much could be done..
but it sucks..
im not phased by the death bit of things - i mean, it's not the first death i witnessed in front of my eyes...
but yeah...it suddenly feels worse when im the doctor there with responsibilities...
bummer.......*sigh*.....
