Yeah, because we all know what a miracle drug oxygen is. If they had just brought it with them, this girl would have lived and increased her IQ by 20-25 points. I don't know if there in necessarily a protocol that says what you have to bring in to the residence. I would just base it on common sense. If they knew they were heading into a cardiac arrest and didn't bring the AED, shame on them. It may not have made a difference. What if the kid was in asystole, the AED would have been useless. I would be curious to find out more info. This is where anyone in the medical field that finds themselves on the defense side is screwed. You are being judged by a bunch of people who have no idea how the real world, either in the field or in the hospital, works. What seems wrong to a layperson (staying on scene and performing CPR) is actually the right thing to do. The problem is that these people have a medical knowledge limited to what they see on TV. A truly impartial jury should be comprised of 6 providers and 6 laypeople.
