Paramedics Stumped By Mystery Symptoms | S2 Ep7 | Full Episode | Paramedics

A terrified mother calls emergency services believing her 24-year-old son, Capill, is in cardiac arrest. Paramedic Cam arrives to find Capill conscious but unwell. Due to a language barrier and Capill's extensive medical history, including a recent chest infection and a heart condition, Cam initially struggles to determine the cause. He soon suspects Capill has mixed prescription pain medication for his chronic heart pain with alcohol, leading to an overdose. Cam administers Naloxone to counteract the opioids.

Paramedics Nicola and Risky are called to a young woman, Ruka, found wandering the streets with unusual symptoms: a locked jaw, grotesque drooling, and an inability to communicate. They initially suspect an anaphylactic reaction but are baffled by the amount of saliva. Despite the strangeness, they treat it as a serious allergic reaction and transport her to the hospital, where doctors will investigate her mystery illness.

Joanne, a 39-year-old mother of five, suffers from SVT (Supraventricular Tachycardia), causing a dangerously fast heart rate (170 bpm). Intensive care paramedic Glennice is dispatched with Adenosine, a drug that temporarily stops the heart to reset its rhythm. Joanne dreads the Adenosine, having experienced its terrifying side effects before. After a non-invasive breathing technique fails, Glennice administers Adenosine, successfully restoring Joanne's heart to a normal rhythm, and she is transported to the hospital for observation.

Flight paramedic Ray responds to a major car accident with multiple casualties, including a pregnant woman and two children. Anna, a 25-year-old occupational therapist, is trapped in the wreckage with suspected fractures. Despite her brave front and understanding of her injuries, the reality of the accident sinks in. Ray carefully manages her pain and prepares her for an emergency airlift. Anna experiences severe nausea during the flight, a dangerous complication with potential spinal injuries, but the team manages it effectively.

Paramedics Leonard and Amanda are called to 73-year-old Emory, who has a massive pulmonary embolism (PE) – a huge blood clot in his lungs. Surprisingly, Emory appears completely calm and unaffected by his life-threatening condition, which can cause sudden death. During transport to the hospital, Emory's blood pressure drops, causing concern for Amanda, but it stabilizes. Emory remains in good spirits despite the grave danger, highlighting the unseen nature of his condition.

Twelve weeks later, Joanne's SVT is still being investigated, but she's managing with medication, hoping to avoid further hospital visits. Capill, after his overdose, spent two days in intensive care but is now home and more careful with his medication. Ruka's bizarre symptoms remained a mystery even after hospital discharge. Anna, the car accident victim, is on her way to a full recovery from her fractures, highlighting her resilience and the support of her boyfriend, Dane. Emory, the man with the massive PE, was unaware of the seriousness until arriving at the hospital; he received blood thinners and is now home, expressing newfound appreciation for life.
