During codes in my unit usually about 8-10 people show up and 5 of them are yelling out (to nobody in particular) what to do. I kept telling myself this can't be good. Well yesterday the patient was shocked while getting chest compressions. So much chaos voices yelling over the doc saying when to shock. It was like there were two code teams working on the same patient. Thank God the hands off button was pressed a split second before it had fully charged. The presser had his back to the action. I was facing it next to the cart. All I could do was yell No it happened so fast. I fully expected her to go down too because I heard the energy discharge it seems it just didn't make it to the patient. Thank God. Pt. made it through. Thank God for that too.

Thank You Happy Gal for that post. I laughed so hard. Especially at the Praying Mantis part.
