Mark and Wendy in “Do One, Teach One, Kill One”

Mark

An exciting case? Here's one: Guy comes in, hypovolemic shock. Defibrillated ten, fifteen times. We maxed out on lidocaine, added bretylium, finally shocked him back to sinus, goes bradycardic. So I float a transvenous pacemaker, get capture, he stops breathing. I had to climb on, intubate him cowboy-style right there on the table.

Wendy

Wow.

Mark

Man.

Wendy

What happened?

Mark

He died.
