    They say they’re holding steady, and they are, look at those graphs.

    They didn’t say they were holding steady at ideal levels.

      It probably costed some 100k just to pay the guy that designed the look and feel of the interface and obviously they had medical advices on the matter (common knowledge really).

      The patient is going through merging with a symbionte, most patients (test subjects) died.

      Of course they are happy to read anomalous but stable vitals.

        I honestly don’t think that they paid that much. Most of it is probably just some stock animation that they bought and use, rather than anything specific.

        I think you’re really overestimating how much they’d pay a handful of random Korean guys for a few days of their time.

      But they did say they were happy they were holding steady. But it doesn’t tell us if they wanted it dead or alive.

    It doesn’t say they are GOOD, just that they are STEADY. Steadily bad is still steady.

      A dead patient has steady vitals too.

      source
      • snooggums@piefed.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

        Dead patients don't have any vitals at all.

        You could even say they have the stediest vitals of them all.

      Consider that the other patients that didn’t successfully bind may have had worse numbers. (Idk if those were shown in the movie.)

      It’s the same way I’m lucky, nobody said it was good luck

        Bad example since lucky literally means good luck.

    Those aren’t life threatening vitals, they are just not healthy vitals. If you introduce a wild new experimental procedure to someone already unhealthy holding steady is a good thing, they aren’t crashing. Those are fairly standard vitals for say, someone with covid requiring hospitalization but hopefully not yet intubation, or someone with pneumonia or emphysema.

      A quick check shows that 81% is typically considered severe hypoxia

      • WhiteOakBayou@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        Yeah, 81% on the pulse ox is bad. If the bipap doesn’t get that up you are buying a tube.

    I mean thats pretty good for someone going through whatever sci-fi thing that was happening

    • toynbee@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      Those numbers aren’t too far off from what I had the last time I read hospitalized for a nosebleed.

      source
      • PartyAt15thAndSummit@lemmy.zip ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

        It’s almost exactly what I had when I was hospitalized after a flat fire. My numbers held steady for hours, too.

      Yes, if the heart rate were 60, that would be a lot more suspicious. Even if the procedure hasn’t started yet, I’d expect the subject to be fucking scared. I don’t know if the O2 saturation makes sense for what’s happening, but it might. If your entire body is being taken over by a symbiote, any readings might be possible.

    In wolverine origins a character stops their heart with hydrochlorothiazide because it’s a cool sounding word

    In reality she’d slightly drop her bp and probably have to piss

      What about a kilogram of it?

        A kilogram of piss is about a liter, give or take.

      I watched that movie right after I started as a pharmacy tech. Stuck with me.

    Looks pretty steady to me. Not optimal, or good, but steady.

  • yozul@beehaw.org ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    A pulse of 136 and an SpO2 of 81 are far from ideal, but they’re also far from deadly. I’d say if you’re fundamentally altering someone’s biology traumatically and that’s the worst thing it does to them they’re doing pretty good, actually.

    source
    • SoleInvictus@lemmy.blahaj.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      Yeah, I have sleep apnea and my SpO2 drops into the eighties once or twice a night.

      Central apnea: fun for the whole family.

    136bpm is fine if the person is, understandably, anxious.

    source
    • 9point6@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Is a person capable of anxiety if they’re missing a fifth of the oxygen they’re supposed to have?

      IIRC 95% is like “you should probably talk to the doctor” territory

      source
      • Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

        95% is the lower limit of being fine.

        80% is “You should go to a hospital. No, I mean by ambulance”

        Is a person capable of anxiety if they’re missing a fifth of the oxygen they’re supposed to have?

        Yes. Based on seeing a family member in that predicament, I’d say they’re capable of extreme anxiety at those levels.

        source
      • princessnorah@lemmy.blahaj.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

        Oh yeah, I mean, that’s fucked. I have no idea what effect that’d have on your heart rate.

  • saltesc@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    Yeah, but kudos to whoever the UI dev for CONTAIN.MOD.C12 is.

    If I had to guess the taskbar icons; Dashboard Mode, Fullscreen Mode, Report View, Directories, System Management, Power Management, Home, Settings, Shopping, Trash.

    Up top looks like all the controls you need for the chamber to open and close doors, set temps, change vitals views…

    Dunno what’s up with the primary monitor not adopting the dark UI theme, but that happens with GNOME some times.

      But now every client thinks 3D drawings are the ultimate interface. In reality it just takes up screen real estate and drives up costs. Especially fun when they want something changed and get a pretty large bill.

    What’s the issue? Death is also a “stable condition”.

    • ilinamorato@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      Maybe the most stable.

      Kills me that studios spend so much money getting so many fine details correct and still can’t have one expert on set. Hell, just keep them on retainer if not always present.

      Saw a great detail last night. In Rush Hour, the Chinese gangsters had Chinese pistols! They’re kinda funny looking to American eyes so they stood out. And they were perfectly consistent with the usage. Makes me wonder what details I missed out of ignorance.

        Doesn’t even have to be a doctor. An ED or ICU nurse would cover most needs.

        source
    • Tollana1234567@lemmy.today ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      its why most of them dont show the actual vital readings , or the machine is not even on.

    • Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      One of the many reasons why, yes.
