We found our patient unresponsive, in ventricular tachycardia, and suffering from a massive arterial bleed on the lower right extremity. After calling a code and starting the ABC's, we shocked him, intubated him and gave him a bolus of saline solution. Courageously, we worked for the next several minutes to stabilize our patient. Despite our efforts, we watched the monitor as he slipped into asystole, and we called it fifteen minutes later.
What happened next? We hit the "reset" button and let the next group have their turn.
I love being an almost-doctor. Coolness.

Instead of hitting reset, try for 30 lives.

Classic. If only we could give our patients 30 lives.
