Porous Five Hole Posted January 3, 2023 Report Share Posted January 3, 2023 I’m sick to my stomach. That is someone’s brother, someone’s son, someone’s hero. Damar, please be OK. ❤️💙❤️ 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted January 3, 2023 Report Share Posted January 3, 2023 Can @Wyldnwoody44or another medically knowledgeable person shed some light on a question? It was reported that Damar’s vitals had returned to normal, but if he was intubated and placed on a respirator, doesn’t that suggest that at least one of his vitals, his respiration, has not normalized? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PASabreFan Posted January 3, 2023 Report Share Posted January 3, 2023 CNN about to have former Bill and current sportscaster Coy Wire on. He was just on a briefing call the NFL gave to select media. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwampD Posted January 3, 2023 Report Share Posted January 3, 2023 Tonight sucked. It was also somewhat reassuring. If there was news the he was fine within even 30 minutes, they would have resumed play. They didn’t get that news, so they didn’t. I have no problem with the time it took. I think every one acted with aplomb, to a degree I’m actually kind of impressed with. McDermott and Taylor get major props. Class guys. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any info would be greatly appreciated. Havent seen report on a respirator... but intubation is basically similar with O2 flowing through a tube through trachea into lungs. What it means is his O2 levels in his blood are normal and his heart is beating normally... whether there are any other issues including brain issues will be a matter for tests once he is fully stabilized and off O2. Talking to ER docs tonight at work about a 35% chance of survival but he is young... we wont know much til tomorrow or later.

I just assumed, based on earlier reports that he was unable to breathe on his own, that the intubation included a respirator. Chalk it up to my naïveté that it might be just be an oxygen tube only. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabres Fan in NS Posted January 3, 2023 Report Share Posted January 3, 2023 This is terrible news to wake up to. Puts everything into perspective. Thoughts and prayers to everyone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PASabreFan Posted January 3, 2023 Report Share Posted January 3, 2023 Question for the pros. With blood flow stopped (or inadequate in the case of vfib), if CPR started almost immediately and he got defibrillated quickly, why wouldn't we expect a full recovery? Are the cardiac arrest mentions in the media necessarily accurate? Today is brush up on CPR day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big worry is that he had CPR for a while, (9 mins from a report I saw), where he wasn’t breathing. ~10 minutes with little to no oxygen to the brain is rough on you.

The idea of CPR is to keep the blood and oxygen flowing. And remember he got CPR from people who are very highly trained at it. Not sure if he got breaths or not and it might not matter that much as compression only CPR is urged in the general public. That said it's certainly not the ideal way for the body to get oxygen (good start the day with a no ***** sherlock statement). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GASabresIUFAN Posted January 3, 2023 Report Share Posted January 3, 2023 (edited) Have any of the Sabres talked or Tweeted about Damar? This is not a criticism but a honest question. I’ve seen the Sabres Tweet. WGR has been reposting relevant Tweets but haven’t seen one from a Sabre.

PASabreFan Posted January 3, 2023 Report Share Posted January 3, 2023 Watched the Pronger video briefly. Wasn't sure if or when he got CPR. Seems like an NHL player fairly recently had to get CPR on the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
