![]() And you’ve seen those movies where the patient gets shocked and they jerk off the ground? That’s exactly what happened. The defibrillator “diagnosed that his heart had stopped, as I had thought was the case when I couldn’t get a pulse,” Oz said. Oz said that he first became aware of the man's distress while waiting for baggage at the luggage carousel and his daughter started yelling “Daddy, daddy, daddy!” Oz said his fatherly alarm bells went off thinking she was in trouble, then switched into emergency gear when he saw the man. “What better help than to have a cardiac surgeon?" Croissant said afterward. Three other officers brought oxygen and a defibrillator for the man, who eventually regained a pulse and was taken to a hospital for evaluation. Oz said he tried to rouse him, but the man had no pulse and his face had begun to turn purple.Ĭroissant performed CPR on the man while Oz worked to clear his airway with a face pack and a tongue-depressing oral airway device. “The gentleman had face-planted, and there was a pool of blood like a murder scene,” Oz told The Associated Press.
