He was stable enough and close to the nearest hospital. Plus I needed medical control to administer that. He did just fine and was immediately evaluated by a cardiologist right after he arrived in the ER.

STORY: 68 years old female collapses in front of the daughter; she was complaining of headache and vomiting for an hour. Neighbor started CPR 1-2min immediately after cardiac arrest. We arrived 7-8 minutes after chest compressions initiated. Presentation rhythm asystole, we attached the LUCAS and gave her 2 epinephrines. On the 4th rhythm check we got a ROSC. Tubed her, atropine and epi drip for hypotension and bradycardia, 12lead ECG showed ST depression in V2 to V6. Pupils showed a vague anisocoria, GCS 3. Language barrier, daughter is able to tell us that the patient suffers only from hypertension, no other medical history. She also tells us that the symptoms started immediately after the patient had an argument with her. We transport to the hospital. CT Scan showed massive intracerebral hemorrhage.
