Pt is young, has drug problems, comes in obtunded after snorting cocaine and alcohol abuse. Also has redbull habit as he works many hours. Underwent CPR by his friend before arrival, Slowly regained consciousness, Echo clean, EKG only showed replo/St elev in 1 lead. X-rays clear. Was given some pain med for CPR pain.
Pt is athletic looking, 29. not common to have repolarization changes in young men.
If this is a cocaine induced vasospasm, would his echo show anything? I would think not.
