All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
I’m amazed at the statement the Bills put out saying he’s “neurologically intact”. Every CPR/First Aid and advanced training I’ve had, we were always told after 4-6 minutes of CPR, there is some Brian damage and after 10 minutes they will never have normal Brian function. To say he’s neurologically intact is nothing short of AMAZING!!!

That is not true, in my experience. Especially with high quality, immediate CPR
It may take a while to fully assess if there was any neurological damage. But I'll take the Bills' statement at face value--I'm sure they had medical/legal input on their choice of phrasing. I take it to mean that he is communicating well and appears to be himself.
Truly miraculous news.
Wake up, brush your teeth, and get ready for a day of hating the Dolphins. Or the Pats? How to choose?

Awesome news! Must feel great for his family. I was hoping the players would get some encouraging news to lift their spirits before having to head into another game.

Correct - In cardiac arrest, as long as the CPR is high quality, there (usually) continues to be blood circulation. The scenario kgun referred to is how long a patient has been in arrest without effective CPR. The issue is, though, that "high quality" CPR is often lacking. Moreover, defibrillation should be instituted as soon as possible for shockable rhythms.
There are many other patient exceptions as well. Cardiac tamponade is one of them, where even good quality chest compressions will not lead to effective blood circulation.
The Bills issued an update on safety Damar Hamlin's condition on Thursday morning.
Bills: Damar Hamlin has made “remarkable improvement” in past 24 hours
“Per the physicians caring for Damar Hamlin at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, Damar has shown remarkable improvement over the past 24 hours,” the statement said. “While still critically ill, he has demonstrated that he appears to be neurologically intact. His lungs continue to heal and he is making steady progress. We are grateful for the love and support we have received.”
Hamlin’s agents also released a statement calling his improvement “substantial” and offering further thanks to medical personnel for their work and to those who have offered support to Hamlin over the last few days.
