A FLT DIVERTS TO BERMUDA WHEN A PAX LOSES CONSCIOUSNESS WHILE IN CRUISE ON AN OVERWATER FLT TO SJU; PR.

Narrative

AT APPROX XA30; I WAS IN THE AFT GALLEY; JUST HAVING FINISHED THE PICK-UP SVC AFTER BREAKFAST. I HEARD A PA ASKING FOR A PHYSICIAN; DOCTOR OR NURSE. I PROCEEDED TO MID CABIN WHERE FLT ATTENDANT #3 WAS TRYING TO DETERMINE WHAT WAS WRONG WITH AN ILL PAX. TOGETHER; WE CHKED BREATHING AND PULSE; WHICH BOTH WERE PRESENT. FLT ATTENDANT #4 WENT FOR OXYGEN; FLT ATTENDANT #1 BROUGHT THE AED AND KIT. FLT ATTENDANT #3 AND MYSELF PUT PAX ON THE AISLE FLOOR. WE PUT ON THE OXYGEN (LOW FLOW) ON PAX AND HE STILL DID NOT REGAIN CONSCIOUSNESS. WE THEN PUT ON THE AED PADS. THE PAX WAS HAVING DIFFICULTY BREATHING; FLUSHED AROUND HIS CHEST AND A VERY FAST PULSE. PERSON (NIECE) TRAVELING WITH HIM; SAID HE WAS A HEART PATIENT AND GAVE US A BAG FULL OF MEDICATIONS. CAPT INFORMED US OF LNDG IN BERMUDA; IN APPROX 15 MINS. WE MOVED PAX TO THE MAIN CABINET BULKHEAD FOR LNDG. I STAYED WITH HIM DURING LNDG AND THEN THE ARPT MEDICS TOOK OVER. THE AED NEVER ADVISED A SHOCK. WE USED IT TO MONITOR PAX ONLY. PAX NEVER REALLY REGAINED CONSCIOUSNESS. MEDICS AND PHYSICIANS STARTED AN IV. PAX WAS REMOVED FROM ACFT AND TRANSPORTED TO LCL HOSPITAL.
