I'm usually not around when they're alivemyway said:Prolly agonal respirations. That's when they are almost or very newly dead. Never seen one do it after they had been dead awhile....but Spart would know more about it than me. I'm usually not around peeps if they have been dead for long.

we use the plugs to arrest that action before they're dressed and casketed
we can't have any foul odors
about 1 in 40 is autopsiedhanselthecaretaker said:You don't take all that shit out at all, like during autopsies? Or are most corpses just dealt with quickly if the cause of death is obvious.
Angel said:They put pluggies in dead peoples asses
That shit used to always scare the crap out of me. I hated hearing it. They die but they keep on breathing as if they are sleeping..We could always tell when we were losing someone because of the rattle before they die, and after.Spartacus said:"death rattle"

body does "move". But the body does not "move".
Kinda like this: if you see a deer on the side of the road in the morning, the body might be limp and the legs are lying in a natual position. On the way home, the same deer has its legs stuck out straight as a board. The next morning, the legs are limp again, with the legs lying back down in a natural position.
I only encounter rigor and lividity, with 45's (DOA's). Normally, someone passes away sometime in the middle of the night. Then the spouse wakes up in the morning, gets coffee, etc and the realizes their spouse must of overslept. Then go check on them and find out they are dead. Call 911 and try to begin CPR. We get there and take over CPR and find that the body is stiff as a board, connect the EKG and find asystole. DNR orders are called for and the coroner comes.
I have never seen muscle twitching personally, only in the movies.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agonal_respirations
I have seen agonal respirations several times. Sounds like moaning, grunting, snoring (caused by the tongue) and sometimes gurgling, etc.
The call normally goes out as Unresponsive/ Repiratory distress. Well with agonal resp. the patient normally goes into resp. arrest shortly after. So rescue breathing is a must either way. CPR is initiated once there is no pulse or a very slow pulse is detected.

Spartacus said:rigor starts about the head and neck area
gradually moves throuhg the extremities
then rigor will 'pass' after about 48 hours
one of the first things I do before embalming is rotate the head around to loosen the neck muscles (rigor is in muscle tissue-it's a chemical thing)
I want the neck loose to free some constriction on the vessels (embalming chemicals use the circulatory system to spread within the body)
and of course to set the head in a proper position
firefighter337 said:Out of the 40 or so people, we have gotten 2 back. 1 of those 2, died while in transport to the hospital. I reckon the heart was just worn out. I later found out the guy had triple bi-pass surgury and a couple of heart attacks.
But sucks? Yea pretty much. Sometimes even if we know they have no chance, you do it anyway. As barbaric as it looks it helps the family with the greiving process. It is a traumatic thing for the family, it was their mom, dad, uncle, etc. Just another patient to you. Sometimes when you become "numb" to these types of calls, it is difficult to be passionate to the family.
One wild thing I have noticed. With the extreme elderly 80+, if both spouses are living and then one passes away. Normally within 6 months the other passes away. Kinda like they were holding on for them and they just give up.
myway said:I have 8 code-saves in 6 years. It doesn't happen as much as people think. I actually feel bad about the first guy I got back. He's a veggie, now.
The one I feel best about was an 11-year old boy(hung himself). Istill check in on him. He's now in a foster home and still needs physical therapy for spinal cord injuries...but he started walking again about a year ago.

myway said:I could be wrong, but I think we have several. I don't get it, either. Either way, it would prolly mean big bucks for Spart.
RottenWillow said:The coroner system is a bizarre legacy. I think they've hung on just from political influence. You'd think everyone would agree only ME's could ever do that job.
