The passenger’s pulse was dropping, and she was struggling to breathe.The doctors used a laryngeal mask to intubate the passenger, and a self inflating bag to stabilise her breathing. They also fitted an intravenous drip. “I felt her breathing weaken and used the Ambu bag to assist ventilation. Her pulse dropped, and I worried about cardiac arrest,” wrote.
