:32:01
...just the two of us
in the hospital cafeteria?
:32:03
-Sounds great!
-About 1 1 ?
:32:05
You got a date.
:32:06
Maybe afterwards, we can go to
our favorite room on the eighth floor.
:32:10
Nobody will be there after midnight.
:32:12
l think we're looking
at cortical anoxia.
:32:15
-l'll check the Babinski.
-How old is he?
:32:17
Thirty-five.
:32:18
When did you administer
the additional dosage?
:32:21
At the onset of cardiac irritability.
The surgeon said he was light.
:32:24
Surgeons know nothing about anesthesia.
What'd you give?
:32:27
Two cc's push.
:32:29
There was no reason
there'd be a problem.
:32:31
Just seemed a little light.
:32:33
Some PVC in runs,
transient hypotension...
:32:35
...but no sign of hypoxia.
:32:37
Skin color and blood
were all red and fully oxygenated.
:32:41
The pupils are fixed and dilated,
l must presume brain death.
:32:44
Any relation to your other case?
:32:46
Completely different.
:32:47
Different staffs,
different anesthetic agents.
:32:50
-He better be trached.
-Do we need a pulmonary consult?
:32:53
Request the consult...
:32:55
...but go ahead with the tracheotomy.
:32:57
This is a long-term
management problem.
:32:59
-Come on.
-lt happened again.
:33:01
That's Dr. George, chief of anesthesia.
He's got it under control.
:33:05
ls there a research protocol
this case would fit?
:33:08
He's a good research case.
Excellent teaching material.
:33:11
lt's true, Mr. Murphy
presents challenges...
:33:13
...electrolyte balance lV,
caloric maintenance...
:33:16
...possible pseudomonas infection.
:33:19
There may be additional
risk of staph osteomyelitis.
:33:22
But l think you'll be
agreeably surprised, Dr. George.
:33:26
We can keep him alive...
:33:28
...in stable vital signs, a year...
:33:31
...two years, indefinitely.
:33:34
You can't just look the other way.
:33:36
Nobody's looking the other way.
:33:38
Mark, twice in two days.
lt's not normal.
:33:41
-ln certain cases, patients always--
-You told me that.
:33:44
Two in two days.
:33:46
You're just sensitized to it.
:33:48
lt just happened to a friend
and now you're looking for it.
:33:52
Twice in two days
is just our lousy luck.
:33:57
-Did Harris take the readout?
-Yes.
:33:59
All right, then forget it.
