xQc Reacts to A Man Played Video Games Nonstop For 73 Hours. This Is How His Organs Shut Down.

DC is a 25 year old man presenting to the emergency room dead on arrival paramedics were desperately performing chest compressions to try and push blood back into his brain to try and push blood back into his organs to try to keep him alive but it seemed like their attempts were all in vain cymatics a knowledge graduate but he never wanted to go to school he worked a minimum-wage job but he was recently fired he wanted to be an Internet video game streamer but no one was watching he lived at home with his mom where she still cooked for him but she kicked him out when he was no longer going out to look for a new job depressed and lost DC binge don video games at the local internet cafe for days at a time sometimes he'd sleep at the computer and wake up twice trainwreck he gave up personal hygiene he gave up friendships his life was games he was obsessed and he just couldn't stop playing one weekend DC played for 73 hours non-stop glued to his seat he barely ate any food he hardly drank any water he didn't even get up to use the bathroom having already released a few times in between and finally couldn't hold it in anymore he got up for the first time in days as he stood up from his chair he suddenly felt lightheaded he blacked out I remember the constantly collapsed at the front desk of the internet cafe the owner was oblivious to the fact that someone had fainted on his property thirty minutes pass and DC was found on the floor unconscious and struggling to breathe 911 called in the ambulance DC suddenly flatlines his heart stops beating and he stops breathing paramedics definitely begins CPR as he's brought to the emergency room where we are now doctors in a rush continue chest compressions they defibrillate him and give electrical shocks in hopes of bringing back a heartbeat but with minimal response ultrasound boy immediately reveals that the right side of his heart is swollen it's larger than the left ventricle which is the part of the heart that's responsible for pumping blood to the entire body the left ventricle has more muscles so it's the largest part of the heart in every normal functioning human but see can't function normally now his heart is twisted its disfigured this immediately tells the medical team that he's suffering from acute massive pulmonary embolism embolus from ancient Greek meaning a wedge or in this case referred to as like a library lung and massive reflection clot but to the sudden hemodynamic collapse that it caused in DC a blood clot wedged into the artery going into the lungs causing his heart to disfigure causing his heart to stop beating because it is disfigured causing his organs to shut down because they're no longer receiving oxygen due to the fact that his heart has stopped beating wait yes like very unlucky if it is to happen right just first it could be like like a clot in your leg and then if you're very lucky it's like a deep vein thrombosis or whatever which is like a bigger one and like the autorai liver and then a piece can like detached from there and then it goes there it sound like very lucky that he didn't have any underlying medical issues leading to this problem except for sitting at a compelling video games non-stop for 73 hours doing anything non-stop for 70 hours is dangerous but sitting down non-stop for 70 hours is deadly because of venous stasis this is a time when a lack of movement of the legs causes blood to pool the blood pressure in the body's veins is already low because there isn't anything directly pumping it back to the heart venous blood oozes its way back without moving the legs for 70 hours and given that sitting down compresses the veins a compartment of the body where the blood flow is already slower than normal then this pooling of blood causes some of it to clump together into a clot something called a deep vein thrombosis which is what happened to DC as he sat there for days but there's more as the clot formed it stayed in his legs for as long as he was sitting down he got up it broke off it went directly into the right side of his heart like how blood normally does but then lodged itself directly into the pulmonary artery where the right side of the heart connects to the lungs this backup of blood into the right ventricle caused it to stretch to distend to disfigure but this is only the beginning of the dysfunction the right ventricle of the heart typically has a thinner wall than the left it has a lower volume to surface area ratio this makes sense because blood from here goes directly to the lungs you don't need high pressure going to the lungs when the right there but when the right ventricle swells due to flow backing up wall stress increases it pushes against the interventricular septum causing it to bow out into the left ventricle this increased pressure and volume in the right displaces the left reducing cardiac output in DC's case of heat formed by the collapse secondary to massive pulmonary embolism in occlusion into the pulmonary artery meant a filling defect on the left as blood cannot be pumped out to the rest of the body there's no longer an adequate oxygen supply in his body as his organs all start to die while still trying to be can no longer function it arrests as he comes into the emergency room without a pulse but it wasn't like this when they found him paramedics tell the medical team that DC was found gasping for air that he did in fact have a heartbeat when they found him but it was fast from his body detecting hypoxemia a low-oxygen presence and blood his blood pressure was low from the hemodynamic compromise and that it was on the way to the emergency room that his heart suddenly stopped beating that all of this just happened minutes ago meaning that it might not have why do you look happy I always what I bring DC back to life is there a way we can somehow remove the clot from DC's lungs maybe but it has to be financially media I think surgery cutting him open to pull it out is not an option because they would take too long guiding a catheter through his veins to direct medicine that can dissolve the clot directly is also not an option because of time the quickest solution is to infuse that medicine directly into his entire body this systemic fibrinolytic therapy is his last hope on the emergency room bed DC is immediately infused with a large bolus dose of lytic as chest compressions are continued analytic was set for infusion over time as this aggressive dosing means the medical team will continue CPR until he either comes back to life or it's absolutely certain that DC is lost as the chest compressions are desperately applied minutes pass a detectable heartbeat is found and this return of spontaneous circulation is a good sign DC is not lost but several balls bands and he doesn't regain consciousness admission into the intensive care unit finds that he's missing cognitive factors shining a light into his eyes a normal functioning human will exhibit a pupillary reflex where the pupils will constrict in reaction continent-wide people of this indicates brain damaged and in DC it's absent in a motor response to blow these line which will reflex absence of this reflex indicates brain damage and in DC it's absent as the days go by DC's mother arrives to the hospital to see her son she tries to speak to him but no response he may not have listened to her in life but the only thing she would like to see now is a response an indication something I heard is rapping on that tells her that he can hear her but nothing is returned the several minutes where DC's body was not receiving oxygen because of a clot blocking the point where his heart and lungs connected caused this permanent anoxic hiss quemic damage most people can easily pick out that healthy individuals can't stay up and play video games for three days straight without sleep without going to the bathroom most people can't stay up for three days straight oh we're done is before everything is before right have we a lot did you'll see you'll see what I mean did this watch the thing just watched it I think it's over here right is this remember this indicates brain damage and in DC it's absent in a normal functioning human motor response to pain is a natural reflex absence of this reflex and indicates brain damage and in DC as the days go by DC's mother arrives to the hospital to see her son she tries to speak to him but no response he may not have listened to her in life but the only thing she would like to see now is a response an indication something from her son that tells her that he can hear him but nothing is returned the several minutes when DC's body was not receiving oxygen because the clot blocking the point where his heart and lungs connected caused this permanent anoxic ischemia damage most people can easily pick out and healthy individuals that can stay and play video games in Frisbee days straight without sleep but I'm talking about most people can't stay up for three days straight for any I'd love to play that much means that that person has a problem internet gaming disorder has been described as a condition you need for the research for several years ago back in 2013 the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders dsm-5 put that description on paper and in 2018 the World Health Organization placed internet gaming disorder using phones the traditional methods revision in the International classification DC's is that one extreme end of the spectrum of working age and online video be described as internet gaming disorder the actual people who will have this are going to be a small subset of the population because most people won't have this level of obsessive behavior people who only hear headlines may be under informed as to what internet gaming disorder by never see the day in which I hear a favorite streamer example xqc died because of age sickness or more I'm happy you are here with us really it's probably not describing a kid who wants to play games with his friends after school who daydreams about the game during class sometimes but is overall a functional person who's okay if they don't play games for a couple of days who can comply with their responsibilities it also doesn't describe a 25 year old who plays 20 hours total on the weekend but can still show up to work during the week hold a relationship and family obligations without problem internet gaming disorder isn't describing these people but if someone lets their kids or pets starve to death because they were too focused on playing a video game then something might be wrong if someone continues to obsessively play after getting forcibly kicked out of their parents house plays for several days at a time non-stop there's no that not involving not using the bathroom and not sleeping well then something is probably wrong even worse if the public pools on the legs well that person is playing because they've been playing for so long forming a deep vein thrombosis it becomes a massive pulmonary embolism with end-organ mal profusion and hemodynamic collapse resulting in residual organ dysfunction and hypoxic brain damage something that results in tangible detrimental and life-threatening consequences due to one's lack of self control over playing video games well that is a problem and it's a good thing that we're able to classify it as a problem for DC limited neurocognitive function was recovered as he suffered from rounds of pneumonia and sepsis during his stay in the intensive care unit diminished urine output and elemental eminates levels indicated kidney and liver damage the loss of people area absent extensor motor response days after admission were specific factors to indicate poor outcome following anoxic injury secondary to massive pulmonary embolism at autopsy extensive neuronal damage was found in the parietal occipital temporal cortex okay cerebellar injury was observed along with losses at the thalamic nuclei little could be done by the time he was found unresponsive at the knee as too much time had passed in a setting where minutes and seconds matter the only hope was to salvage whatever the medical team could once DC fell into cardiac arrest for gamers today be sure to keep yourself hydrated and don't sit firm I do a lot of more than an hour at a time get up and walk around even if it's just for a couple of minutes and most importantly be kind yourself internet gaming is actually stressful even if it's fun thank you so much for watching take care of yourself and be well ah why it was me good job down they weren't ready our aim was [ __ ] steady yeah steady we're all up on that [ __ ] when it's good it's good good four kills first place yeah
