What Is The Prognosis For A Woman Having A Seizure Attack?

Hello. We had a 44 yr.old woman that had a seizure in church and face planted on stage. non-responsive, no pulse and no respiration. CPR was initiated, AED applied but not needed. transported by ambulance to local ER. No previous history or health issues. CT Scan proved Aneurism, encapsulated. Transferred by Air-evac to Little Rock. Chances of survival? what to watch for? and what to relate to church body? 6 nurses were present immediately from congregation, as well as Director of EMT services and several first-responders. All beating themselves up right now. YYYY@YYYY is my email address. Thank you, Patrice Wells

It isn't good. First the aneurysm has to be fixed and a certain amount of the brain is gone.
Ok, well, nobody able to do brain surgery right there. If she'd been complaining about difficulty speaking, weak on one side and "worst headache ever" then there's indeed reason to beat oneself up. Short of that. no. Happened suddenly, not enough warning to be able to say anything and did all you possibly could have.
Prayers are with her. Certainly some people recover near completely from it.
