Doctors had told family members Wednesday morning that Hamlin's condition was moving in a "positive direction," according to Hamlin family spokesperson Jordon Rooney. Responding to reports that the defibrillator used on Hamlin malfunctioned, Rooney said those reports were incorrect and that all of the medical equipment worked properly.
Medical staff from both team teams responded at the scene, Dr. Allen Sills, the NFL's chief medical officer, said. Commotio cordis is "almost a diagnosis of exclusion," meaning that no other cause has been found, Sills said. In some cases of cardiac arrest, the cause may go undiagnosed, Dr. Jim Ellis, the NFL's director of emergency preparedness, said.
