Cardiologist Explains Christian Eriksen's Collapse & Why Athletes Have Cardiac Arrests
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 มิ.ย. 2021
- Christian Eriksen suffered a cardiac arrest while playing in the Euro 2020 Denmark vs Finland match, then required CPR and defibrillation. *EDIT on 13/6/2021: Eriksen's club boss says he neither tested positive for COVID and he has NOT been vaccinated*
What happened, and is this common?
What could’ve caused it and why are athletes' hearts special?
Why wasn’t this picked up in screening?
Is this anything to do with COVID or the vaccine?
What can you do if something like this happens to someone you know?

People being afraid of doing CPR wrong: That person is already dead, anything you do is OK, unless there's someone else more trained than you, just do it.
and don't worry if any ribs break. Broken ribs can heal, dead brain tissue won't.
There's also a fear of legal repercussions should the person not survive, from what I've discussed with people
@@adaileah well most country have a "Good Samaritan" law, as long as you do CPR and/ or call for help, you can't do more harm than good in this case...
@@henk-3098 There's no point worrying about breaking ribs, you WILL break ribs in many cases. You just need to be prepared for that and don't stop until emergency responders get there. There is nothing you can do to them worse than what would happen if you did nothing.
Or take a course on CPR, it's really not that difficult, costs around £50 and it might save someone's life one day.

Two things every person should know: CPR and basic bleeding control. Together, these can save the majority of patients with survivable injury, and it takes only a few hours to learn both. Keep the blood inside a person, oxygenated, and moving through their veins, and they're much more likely to survive and much more likely to have a better clinical outcome.
And to know when you should call the ambulance.
@@paxundpeace9970 Well if you're doing either of those things it's probably not a bad idea.
CPR with an AED can save a patient's life. CPR without an AED can save their organs for donation.
@@prmperop Quality CPR without an AED can keep a patient's neurological function intact until a higher level of care, nearly indefinitely if it weren't for damage that'll eventually be done to the lungs and heart from being squished.
Even a reduced blood supply of oxygen makes outcomes much better than a complete lack of it. Ideally, every person to recieve CPR could be given compressions by a LUCAS device and bagged with oxygen (not all arrhythmias are treatable with an AED), but basic compressions and rescue breaths are still very effective when applied quickly, well, and continuously.
The bleeding control is an often overlooked one too - according to a friend who is an A&E doc most people just don't place makeshift tourniquets properly or tight enough to limit it, and it makes a massive difference keeping injured people conscious and responsive. Tbh, till he demonstrated on my arm, I didn't realise the proper technique either.

I was watching in the center of Helsinki when it happened, all the streets went completely silent all of a sudden. I guess I can speak for all Finnish people when I say that I hope he will make a full recovery and our hearts go out to him, his family and the Danish team. 🙏
As a fellow Finn I was super proud of the Finnish spectators there. Let's hope he makes full recovery
It might be a little weird but still: congrats with the win Finland.
As a Dane i can say you finns were a great sport at the match and really showed care for the Danish players and fans. A lot of Danes have talked on social media about your sportsmanship. If you go through a lot of Danes will be rooting for you!
Voi vittu!
It was traumatic to everybody who watched it. I prepared myself to hear that he passed and just waited to hear the news. A lot of prayers were said that afternoon.
Learning CPR is one of the most important skill that one can learn which might some day help in saving someone's life. My father actually had a cardiac arrest about 6 years ago. None of us knew about the CPR and only tried to rush him to the hospital as fast as we could. It took about 10-15 minutes to take him to the hospital. There the doctors and the staff immediately gave him defibrillation after checking vital signs. After giving him defibrillation multiple times, his heart did recover, but he didn't come back conscious. He went in coma. The doctors later told us that in the time it took for us to get him to the hospital, he had suffered neurological damage because oxygen wasn't being sent to the brain by the heart, and that neurological damage has low chances of recovery. Thus, it was important for us to give him CPR while on the way to the hospital. About a month later, he suffered another cardiac arrest and this time he couldn't be revived.
Now looking back at the time, if only I knew about the CPR and how to give it, maybe I wouldn't have lost him.
I'm sorry for your loss.
May I ask where you live? Here (in Germany) you need to do a first aid course in order to get your drivers license, so basically everyone here should know it, but even if not, when you call 911 they will normally tell you through the phone how to do it.
@@_the_ i think Europe is the only place that requires CPR, here in Australia its not something you have to do, but some job positions require it (looking after kids professionally like kindergarten teachers, day cares, butchers are meant to get it as a part of their training (which doesn't mean they actually remember it, as we had a person have their first epileptic seizure in our store and one of the butchers tried to help by doing some of the things they show on tv).
That is such a tough way to learn this and I am sorry for your loss. May your father RIP🙏🏽
@@dawnlizreads don't give excuses
sorry for your loss :(
He originally had a pulse and they were doing the A.B.C checks when suddenly his pulse went. That's from doctor on scene.
Conclusion : even if the victim seems fine, keep checking their pulse.
what did you think happened first before he lost his pulse? did he faint or a seizure? his eyes were bulging so big
Possible faint, hence way the radial pulse was not present or difficult to palpitate the carotid pulse... trying to find out if he was actually defibrillated.
@@stevebaker4841 yeah he had cpr and defibrillation
That would somewhat make sense .
“I am not an expert on this” say the cardiologist. The purest sign you’re in the presence of a top notch doctor. Humility 🙏🏽
Was about to say the same:)
Definitely! The more knowledge you have in an area, the more you also know about where you lack knowledge. I'm sure even among doctors, he's more knowledgable in this area than most due to being a cardiologist, but his definition of an "expert" in this area is most likely very different from ours and sets the bar much higher.
This should be the norm. We need to learn to say ‘I don’t know’ and leave it at that.
@@jasperfk well say I don't know and consult someone with more expertise.
not really...and running a youtube channel kind of counts on the negative side...imo - few sudden cardiac arrest deaths of younger individuals happen. even fewer are observed. often no cause is diagnosed - there is ZERO chance CE has any preexisting heard condition - and the only reasonable treatment will be an s-ICD and back on the pitch asap.....

Thank you for your PSA about trying CPR. Recently a guy in my local area had a cardiac arrest in the street. He actually survived due to a bystander who knew what he was doing, and I believe made at least a decent recovery as he was interviewed about it afterwards.
However it was disappointing to learn that while he was doing CPR on this man, a good amount of abuse was being hurled at him by other bystanders telling him to get off/ that he's going to hurt the guy. Where I grew up we all had to do CPR courses multiple times along with some basic other first aid, so it was completely baffling to me that some of these people didn't know what he was doing, and we're trying to discourage him.
Broken ribs are a side effect but since your heart has stopped you are dead.
The vigorous chest compression is scary to see and hear but you must not stop until relieved.
And CPR is tiring...please step in and take your turn.
There was a recent story in the U.K. where a supermarket wouldn’t allow someone to take the defibrillator out of the shop to the car park to treat someone having a heart attack because the security guy assumed (apparently without checking) that they were trying to steal its
@@molybdomancer195 that's so strange. At least where I grew up (also UK) the defibrillators are in locked cabinets that the emergency services need to give you a code to (which is a bit questionable but that's a whole other discussion) precisely so that they know that the people accessing them aren't stealing them.
@@amycooper8746 Where I worked (Arizona Public Service, a large electric company) the AEDs were kept in well marked unlocked cabinets. Of course, very limited public access.
During my first aid training someone asked "how long should you do CPR for?" The cynical ex fireman said: "Depends. On a stranger, about 15 minutes. On a family member, until you collapse."
In Arizona, we were taught "until the patient recovers a pulse, or you are relieved, or after you simply can't go on." You are not required to start but once you start you are responsible for your actions.
@@flagmichael same in the west of Canada. Im trained as an emt (dont work as one) and teach first aid and its till obvious signs of life, someone can take over, or till you physically cant (the last of which is not an option if your working in first aid, eg. Emt, lifeguard, firefighter, etc.)
@@flagmichael If your arms start to give up, just switch to legs and feet.
In the US you do CPR until a more qualified person arrives or you get a pulse.
That cynical ex-fireman sounds a lot like my Gramps, who probably would have given the exact same answer! Cynical ex-firemen are always great to have around.
My cousins son died playing Sunday football aged 20. He just collapsed on the pitch and to this day they could not tell his dad the reason he died. This was 15 years ago though. My son was 10 at the time and played football, I went out and bought a defibrillator for the team. The FA should issue all amateur referees with defibrillators and be trained to use them as part of the referees course.
I'm so sorry to read about your loss. In 2019, a work colleague's only child, died suddenly playing rugby. He was only 14.
Why put that on refs? Teams players and coaches should be trained
an arrhythmic death is basically unprovable if the medics arrived to the corpse, so that's not a surprise they can't tell why that boy died.
@@toomuch9762 If you was involved in Kids football or Sunday league you would understand how totally irresponsible many football team managers etc are. Level 1 coaching course did include Brief CPR and first aid training, and I would agree the use of defibrillators should be taught, if it’s not already. Also most teams have no money to buy and maintain defibrillators. Referees also do three or four games a day, that means less defibrillators are required to be purchased and the FA could easily afford to buy and maintain them for every referee.
@@rosiemccattail6350 Thanks for the reply, that makes it a little clearer.
One evening at work an elderly gentleman collapsed. He was lucky in that he was sitting next to a retired GP in a room where everyone had some first aid training. The ambulance was already on its way when he stopped breathing (well, had agonal breathing which doesn't count). Immediate CPR and use of the defibrilator we had in the foyer made all the difference. Paramedics took over after the second shock had been administered and the casualty was chatting with them by the time he arrived at the hospital. Nearly two years later and he is still doing well. I think I'm still a bit shaken by the whole adventure and just hope I'll have the presence of mind to act as promptly if ever something like that happens when I don't have anyone else to help me.
He was really lucky to get that level of care while the professionals got there. Great job!
I think you'll do fine. You didn't just get a training course on a dummy, you watched it happen in real time. You'll never forget the important parts of that and they'll be right there as your only thoughts if it happens again.
Just remember: if you hear and feel a crunch or snap, you're doing a good job, keep at it!
Can't tell the truth. We all know what is going on.
Happy birthday to Mrs Medlife & happy anniversary to you both!
LOL When I saw this comment, I thought: this is a fellow subscriber to the LockPickingLawyer (and Mrs. LockPickingLawyer) 😁
Big applause to his teammates, I hope he recovers fully.
We will, don't worry
Njebs full recovery based on health or based on getting back to playing football? If you think it is the latter, you are most likely wrong unfortunately. But hopefully his health should return back to normal but having to have his heart monitored for the next year or so through doctor’s visits.
@@brandonmiotke you have grossly misunderstood my comment, just poking fun at how the comment says "we" instead of "he"
Njebs oh my b, now I get it 😂
@@brandonmiotke Well he's now playing for Brentford in the EPL and was 'only' out for 9 months (he'll be playing his 10th game for them later today) and has played for Denmark again but that's with an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator device. So he's recovered enough to play professional football at the highest level but with a bit of kit inside him that should save his life if it ever happens again.
Two weeks ago my dad had a heart attack while out on a 10k run. Along with several people who stopped to help, the man who did CPR for 10mins while waiting for the ambulance to arrive saved my dad’s life.
Shoutout to charity "Cardiac Risk in the Young" fronted by Prof Sanjay Sharma who carry out free scans on 16-35 year olds for exactly these kind of risks without you having to be an international standard athlete. They're well worth supporting or contacting for advice if you're worried
As for the late CPR, the doctor of our national team made a statement that when they first made it over to Eriksen he was still breathing, and that they immediately began CPR when his breathing stopped and they could call cardiac arrest.
Thank you for this video. I'm a "football widow" and it's nice to have something to contribute to conversation. I'm also a mummy and whenever anyone is poorly it plagues my mind so much
thank you, this was wild to watch unfold live as an EMT and football fan at home. great video as always!
The chanting at the end gave me chills. Such respect.
I saw the crowd chanting clip in a news article. I live in the U.S. and it was a touching tribute that both sets of fans got involved.
Apparently the Finnish team clapped when the Danish team came back to the pitch.
Some things are more important than sportsball.
Huge respect for you for working night shifts, still spending time with family AND making these videos to educate others! Thank you!!
Thank you for the upload, was watching the match, tough seeing that on live tv..
Thank you so much for explaining and raising awareness. I lost one of my classmates who I used to play football with 14 years ago. He was talented and confident with the ball even though he was only 14. He played for the local football team. He just collapsed and the medics failed to resuscitate him. Awful thing to happen, his family were absolutely devastated.
Correction, it was the other way around: The Finnish shouting "Christian!" and the Danes then continuing "Eriksen!". Does it matter? I think it was great that it was the opponents starting to shout out his first name.
I thought the more obvious tell was their pronounciation of “i” (close to English “ee” as in “reece”, rather than the Danish pronounciation which is closer to “e” as in “respect”.)
@@qupp75 Yes, that as well. I found it better to explain the different "a" as many can refer to the difference from "tomato" and "tomato" in UK and US. Unless you are talking to people who are actually eager to learn the languages, you will keep explanations simple (modtagerorienteret).
@@eblita3698 you put uk for both so I'm confused. Did you mean to write us for one of them
When football fans become a football family instead. These moments it happen is beautiful to see and experience.
Another thing that makes it obvious is the volume, the amount of danish fans was obviously much higher, and can hear it in the shouts.
My brother (Rural fire fighter) just recently had a heart attack... the advanced resuscitation team that were working with him that day 100% saved him... they gave him 8 shocks from the defib and gave him care for 30+ minutes until paramedics arrived. They are truly heros in my eyes.
That is impressive - hope he makes a full recovery.
As a BLS trainer to the NHS, I think I'll just play this video at work tomorrow. Thanks as always for great content.

I took a defibrillator course a few years ago to add to my advanced first aid training. Where I live in the UK you're never too far away from a defibrillator in public places. It's interesting to know that as we learn more about cardiac resuscitation techniques that continuous chest compressions are the most important action and not so much rescue breathing as well.

Fantastic content and an incredible talker, you explain things with such ease.
Happy anniversary and thanks for the vid.
The most important part of the video for me... I need to re-up my knowledge of CPR. Learned it 45 years ago - everyone at our school had to follow a Red Cross CPR course - but I wouldn't mind doing it again. "Staying Alive" is a good one.
Do it! Lots of things have changed in 45 years! And a good instructor will give you lots of practical exercises so that you actually know the movements and procedures from muscle memory. It's a good idea to re-take the course every three years to remind yourself how it's done.
Yeah, I should go for mine again too! I got my CPR and First Aid certifications from St. John's Ambulance courses close to 20 yrs. ago, but I've been lucky enough not to need to use much from them but the very basics. (Apart from holding a roommate's gaping leg wound shut, and holding most of my 110lbs of body weight on it along with handfuls of snow, after he'd fallen on his own skate blade during a midnight hockey game... bloody good times!)
Anyway, my skills and knowledge could definitely use some brushing up!
I'll be humming "Another One Bites the Dust". ;)
I came into the living room while my parents were watching, he had just collapsed. I'm not a fan of football but it was still so sad to watch. Everyone just powerless, watching someone they look up to. Seeing players, fans, his wife crying was really sad.
Honestly, it was against the standards of ethics that they were showing his wife/partner. I heard that in some countries TV stations refrained from broadcasting directly or just showed some general picture of the stadium which is the right thing to do, IMO.
Thank you for you explaination and everything you do, many happy returns and Happy Anniversary
i was really hoping for a video! such an important topic. i’ve never seen football players collapse like that without a collision with another player, it was terrifying. really happy that he’s recovering.
I was jogging at the track and I my heart stop. Cpr was done on me and I'm alive today.

If you're alone with someone in need of CPR, but you're unsure about whether your chest compressions will be good enough because you had practically no training, remember that suboptimal compressions are better than no compressions (as long as you compress in more or less the correct area); there might still be some blood reaching the brain where otherwise, there would be none.
Oh and imagine this situation with no supporters due to COVID, that would've been immensely cold.
Yes and dont be scared to use force a broken rib is better than death 👍
We were taught that if you don't have a barrier with you (I carried one on the truck but never had one on me) to just do compressions. Supposedly the CPR is nearly as effective without the breaths and having somebody compressing without going mouth to mouth with a stranger is better than nothing.
@@flagmichael During the first wave of COVID they told us to skip the breaths as well, but personally, I don't think I'd risk that. There does come a point when one needs to replenish the oxygen (maybe not after every 30 compressions though), and if you're on the street doing CPR for a very long time, at least some breaths would be necessary. Then again, that last part is my gut speaking.
I do wonder, is there any research as to how long the body can do with the oxygen in the blood and remaining air in the lungs, when it is in need of CPR? That would possibly solve this.
@@Timmie1995 Still buying that 'Rona' lie huh? We all know why all these perfectly healthy athletes are now dropping like flies... and it's got nothing to do with CPR.

My mum has Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy and arrhythmia, with a pacemaker AND defibrilator installed, + a mechanical valve & 2 pig valves. She tried to explain it to me using young football players as an example, so this was a VERY enlightening video.
It's really good to know that chest compressions won't adversely affect someone that hasn't had a full cardiac arrest, that is something that has always worried me in that regard.
This was very useful, especially the tips at the end, thanks doc!
So glad that you have made a video on hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and I look forward to more :)! Would be interesting to hear about reasons why sudden cardiac death happens in these patients.
I think it's important to highlight the heroism of the Dane's captain Simon Kjaer too who immediately realized the problem, put Eriksen into a stable position, cleared his airways and started doing CPR until the meds arrived. He is the very person everybody should be when something like this happens on the streets.
That is why he's the captain
Our first aid training films at work used that technique heavily: one of the people present quickly took the lead, reassured the victim while beginning the process and keeping them talking if possible. It was a very helpful vision.
If only life were always that simple, though. Our department had three fatalities - two heart attacks in hopelessly remote locations and a single vehicle accident involving a contract worker. He died when he left the 55 mph two lane road at more than 100 mph and hit a tree.
He is not started CPR tho. Can be clearly seen that Eriksen is still face-down when the meds arrive and they take over.
@@todanrg3 Maybe, I read it in an article but didn't watch it again. It was enough once.
How is performing CPR on someone ‘heroism’ ?

Aw shit, here comes Dr. Clef with the amnesetics...
First time viewer. I appreciate hearing your perspective. While your knowledge is extensive, you don’t draw conclusions based on what you don’t know. Refreshing!
You've become such a fun part of my TH-cam feed. I find your videos fascinating and informative and I swear to God I would do anything to have a physician as authentic as you in my life. Thank you for uploading such interesting and helpful information and in a way that is clear to layman. Your conversation is respectful of the common Man and we all get a sense that you are level-headed and compassionate. Congratulations to your wife and you on your anniversary and I think she's a lucky lady to get married on her birthday have fun that is
Just heard Harry Kane has visited Christian Eriksen in hospital.
"He has managed to string some words together now, so that is promising" said Eriksen.
wait... said Eriksen???
Hey Doc, you will be aware of Wythenshawe and it's brilliant cardiac dept? The referee from this match is from just by the hospital in Wythenshawe. A heart and event link.
Thanks very much for sharing this excellent information! These are wonderful reminders for all of us to keep in mind, whether at home, on the street, or on the pitch. Cheers!
Another fascinating video Doc & don't worry as we won't tell Mrs MedlifeCrisis.
I was thinking about this exact topic!
Very important advice for everyone.
Heart compressions saves lives.
Good video too.
What a fantastic explanation. Thank you. Love your work.
Important video. Thank you.
I'm not even into football and that chant is making me tearful
If there is one positive to come out of this is that hopefully more people will learn or relearn how to perform CPR
Outstanding video and thank you DR.
This happened to a friend of mine during a rugby match. Unfortunately he wasn't so lucky. He was 25 and the best friend you could have hoped to have. Thank you for being a doctor and the excellent work that you do
I thought he had his 2nd vax 2 weeks before the near death? Many athletes just THIS year are dying under age 36 of heart attacks! The cases are off the chart compared to a year and a half ago! It’s more than just genetics
Really brilliant vid, good info for layman.
Excellent video. Extremely informative.
Thank you for all you do for us . Love this channel . It's brilliant 😆😆😆
Not the spurs dig 😭😭😭😭Rohin you're killing me
First I MUST underline that the minimal lighting suits you: it seems professional, there are no weird shadows, your face is perfectly visible (and so is the stroller ;) ).
Second, congratulations for your anniversary and your wife's birthday.
Great video.. Im 29 and fit and I suffered a cardiac arrest in January due to underlying long qt syndrome and torsades de pointes.
I spent over a week in a coma and 5 weeks in hospital.. its great to see how quickly Eriksen has seemed to bounce back.
Very insightful video thank you :)
Just for the record, Inter's CEO Marotta has said that Eriksen hasn't been vaccinated against covid-19; and that, as far as we know, he hasn't gotten the disease.
he was vaccinated 31st of may with pfizer
@@lightninggornall Are you making up facts?!
@@johndododoe1411 apparently an inter milan coach said on radio all the team was vaccinated on 31st of may, i obviousky cannot verify as i dont understand italian
@@lightninggornall Pls link something if you have it.
The national team's doctor was the first to arrive (one of the two guys in blue), after the players, of course. At that time, Christian was alive. Then after a few minutes, his life symptoms disappeared, and he immediately started CPR.
Just to clarify.
Great info my friend 👍
