Double Jaw ....cardiac arrest
« on: January 22, 2016, 12:14:00 AM »


I had my double jaw surgery after a year of braces. I went into cardiac arrest during surgery and a code blue was called. I Woke up in the ICU (REALLY RARE). I I have to go back to basically do what I did the first time around. Has anyone gone through this?!

WTF that's crazy. Are you alright now? Did you have pre-existing heart problems?

As I said in another section, looks like allergy to the anesthesics .
Better try to figure it out with the anesthesiologist...

Socks,

The curiosity level is rising.     

If it is comfortable for you,  can you describe what determination was made as to why you coded ?     If you are not comfortable with sharing that information,  that is understandable.  But your adverse experience  highlights a set of risks that almost all of us probably under-appreciate.

Glad it worked out well for you !

I am aware of a routine plastic surgery (less invasive than your double jaw surgery)  in an office surgery suite a couple of years ago - -  that resulted in a code and ultimately, a week later, death of a patient.
