.... Emily snapped out of her daydream, back to the lesson! Quote:
"Um Professor, wouldn't it depend on the circumstances?" she asked. Then elaborating on her response she said, "I mean to say, the liklihood of survival would largely depend on timing and the severity of these incidents. A person treated with CPR soon after whatever incident took place would have a greater chance of survival than someone who has been left unattended for even a short period of time. Remembering in a matter of life and death every second counts. On the other hand, a person who has almost drowned or has enhaled a large quantitiy of water may still have a higher chance of surviving than somebody that has been bitten by a poisonous snake." |

Out, out, out right now. CPR?! Wasn't that the way the muggles revived someone when they were in need of a healer?! From what she'd heard, it was far slower than the work any wand could do. At that rate, she'd just bet the survival rate was extremely low. She was just glad she didn't have to rely on CPR if and when she ever got knocked off her broom by a bludger...or something. Not that she ever expected that to happen. |
Selina looked at the Professor and nodded at his answer directed toward her and her fellow first year Slytherin. When he was done she picked up her phoenix feather quill and pulled out a piece of parchment to be ready for notes. The Professor began to rattle off statistics or a question about statistics and she payed close attention for the answer. She, personally, did not know the statistic with CPR. So Selina looked at Violet and shrugged her shoulders, she would know soon enough. |
The one time he ever had to do CPR on the girl in the car wreck she had made it , but that was the first time his magical ability had ever shown it self, he knew his dad had a good track record "it is around 10% if every thing is on your side but it jumps up alot if your a medic and have all the equipment" |
Percent of people surviving what? Must be some muggle term that K-Lee didn't know because she had no idea what 'CPR' was. Not knowing the answer, K-Lee asked a question instead. "I'm K-Lee Soler, a second year. I have a question. What exactly is CPR?" |
SPOILER!!: Professor Luin shrugged as the professor moved on from her statement, then listened to the next question. She first stared at him quite dumbfoundedly, CPR what was that, obviously something.....not good....?? Students who knew were quoting some very low percentages of survivors, was it some sort of sickness. She looked around, noticed a couple of others were confused as well, and one other person had asked about it so she stayed quiet for the moment but waited on the professor to answer. |

Emmy riffled through her notes from the last year, eventually finding the page she needed. Squinting slightly, she raised her hand, "Um, Professor? I think it's around 10%, depending on how quickly CPR is administered..." Cripes! She could barely read her notes - someone seemed to have spilled a drink on them... |
Dianna smiled at the Professor. She was glad that she wasn't easily forgotten. Grabbing her bag, Di quickly searched through past notes, some papers flying out from her bag before raising her hand. "I um.. I think it's around 20 to 30 percent, Professor." she said as she lowered her hand. Of course, what did she know about CPR? |

Destiny was not paying attention to everyone talking about Merlin knows what. It was ALL boring and she found herself slooooowly closing her eyes and wanting to fall asleep. She had never been so bored in Muggle Studies before, but she supposed there was a first time for everything. Hearing Professor Zookara AKA the Professor with the spiders in his hair speak, she opened her eyes and..yeah. All she did was open her eyes. She had brought her notes, but she didn't have to answer the question, did she? After all, The survival rate of CPR receivers was only five to ten percent. "I still think slapping people in the face with gloves would work better than CPR." |
Annabelle didn't know the answer to what the percentage was, but she did know what CPR was, it did help save lives though. She learned that in the muggle world. She was still taking notes with her quill in her notebook. |
Fallon had NOOOO idea what Zookara was talking about. She wasn't here last year. She had been home schooled. So she just sat there quietly and started to bounce her leg again. She also started to tap her quill on the desk. She didn't even notice the slight tapping sound coming from her direction. Fallon really shouldn't have had so much sugar AND caffiene. |
Oh, Jaina knew this one....she thought. She raised her hand, "Professor, is it about 90%?" It had to be close! She knew CPR worked majority of the time. Only a first year and hoping to get an older students question correct! |
Viola wasn't here last year so she didn't really know. I know what a CPR is but I don't know anything about the survival rate. Better to keep quiet than to say something wrong, she thought. She just sat quietly and started scribbling something on the parchment. |
All you others, well done as well. ;) Quote:
With a sigh and rather sad shrug he added after a moment, "Unfortunately, this is not exactly a lot." Not really. Especially not in comparison to other people's suggestions of around 50%. But it was the truth. Quote:
Okay, maybe there WERE some people. Quote:

CPR? Jake had that. Of course... letters were still a little funny in his head. But everyone makes brain typos... right? "Stands for... super... person revival." But was the revival super... or the person? HMMMMMMMMM. |
Quote:
STRIKE TEN indeed! Patroclus smiled brightly at the Professor as his answer was deemed correct, howver the smile soon transforming into a huge laugh as he listened to the The boy let his mind wander, CPR....yeah back to that..... "CPR Sir, the lion began, "Or Cardiopulmonary resuscitation is a manual first aid manouver by which someone tries to spark the heart back into motion. By a conjunction of pressing on the chest, and blowing air into the lungs via the lungs, someone attempts to bring someone back who is on the brink of death....." Yeah..... |
Rowan was just about to raise her hand when... Quote:

He paused his search for a moment, to glance at whoever had answered first...Jake. "No, sorry, Jake, it does have something to do with revival but this is not what the letters stand for. Besides, CPR is spelled with a C not with an S." He went to write it onto the blackboard for all to see how it was spelled. Interesting suggestion though. Griiin. Quote:
And there they we- OUCH! Of course, how could he have expected it otherwise, he pricked his finger with the needle of the pin he had been looking for. Sucking at his finger, he placed the pin (OOC: Look what I found. Rawrr. :eyebrows:) on the teacher's desk, and next to it a still rolled-up poster. "Now, imagine somebody has lost a lot of blood and the doctors - I'm obviously talking about the Muggle World where doctors are the equivalent to Healers and Mediwizards - need to get some blood back into the victim's system in order for them to survive. Where do they get that blood from?" Jeremy asked, turning his attention back to the class, his finger still in his mouth to stop the 'bleeding'. |
Quote:
Woah, that boy is really good, thought Viola. The answer is perfect. Anyway, she was back to scribbling on her parchment. |
Oh no. Not healers. Or muggle doctors. NO! Okay, Helena will try this one. She raised her hand. "Some other donators with the same blood type? Or blood banks?" She suggested, but not exactly sure. She heard something about those weird things. |
Rowan raised her hand. "The blood comes from a blood bank, a place where blood donated from other muggles is drawn, tested and then stored until it is needed. The blood is then given to the muggle in need through a transfusion." Yup. That's about right, she thought to herself. |

"Oh... but it's a SEEEEEE... see?" Si? Jake shrugged. Meh. He was still catching up with all the weird letters and only hearing them made it harder but it was all good. BUTNOWHECOULDSEETHEM. But he knew this one. "WE have the blood replenishing potion, or what ever it is... but with muggles, you can donate blood. And you know we have blood types, they then store it away, and they usually want some of each, because they can be rare. So you donate blood, then they keep it... somewhere. On ice, I guess... then they give you blood. Or... a transfusion? Or is it the same. I think... they give you O something if they don't know what you are, because that is figuratively like the colour black; goes with everything. Sometimes it can be bad if you get the wrong blood..." He did wonder though... "Would that change what blood type you are?" OHAIIIIRAMBLER! |
"From other people who have usually donated their blood through a blood transfusion," Kurumi said "You have to be able to match blood types however. Giving someone with a blood type A blood of type B would be very dangerous and could cause serious internal problems for the victim. O is the universal donor however." |
