Eriksen, the first words after waking up: “I’m back with you”

The story of the doctor who revived him: “We used the defibrillator, he woke up after 30 seconds”. The sigh of relief after the answer: “Damn, I’m only 29”

“I’m back with you.” Christian Eriksen responded to the doctor who helped him after his cardiac arrest on the pitch last Saturday during Denmark and Finland. Jens Kleinefeld revealed to some German media the first exchange of words with the player after cardiac arrest and after resuscitation. “Are you back with us?” the doctor asked Chris, the answer: “Yes, I’m back with you”. And the feeling of a narrow escape: “Damn, I’m only 29”. A sigh of relief for the doctor who realized there was no brain damage.

The defibrillator

Jens Kleinefeld said that the defibrillator was used after a few minutes of continuous heart massage: they were decisive maneuvers to revive the Inter midfielder who woke up “about 30 seconds later”. The doctor’s words: “It was a very moving moment because the chances of being successful in a rescue of this type, in everyday situations, are not so high”, then specifying that “this type of treatment works more in athletes. healthy professionals versus patients who often have pre-existing conditions “. Eriksen then remained conscious all the way from the pitch to the changing rooms and then to the hospital with Kleinefeld who at that point calmed down: “I was 99 percent sure that he would arrive at the hospital in stable condition”.
