Case 28 — Hybrid conversion

Handover

Fem-fem VA, native output returning. Right-hand sat 76%, legs pink. The RIJ is prepped and the Y is on the field — they want a second return. No clamp is out yet. MAP 76 on modest pressor.

Uncorrected hypoxemia, shock, or a dead circuit progresses to pre-arrest, then a code.
