Is there a doctor In the house? There
is If you're attending a UNL athletic
event.
First aid is provided for spectators at
all Nebraska sports activities, according
to Dr. Sam Fuenning, UNL director of
athletic medicine. These first aid
stations are manned by volunteer
workers and are funded entirely by the
Athletic Dept. no student fees are
used, he said.
First aid is usually all that's required
at most UNL athletic events because of
the minor injuries spectators receive,
Fuenning said. He cited lacerations,
burns and fainting as minor injuries
common to spectators attending most
sports activities.
Nebraska football fans, however,
receive additional medical care in the
form of a life support system, Fuenning
said.
The first of its kind when established
. in 1966, the life- support system team
recognizes and treats football spectators
who develop cardiac or heart problems,
he said.
More common at football games
Fuenning said heart attacks are more
common at Nebraska football games
because spectators are exposed to high
emotional stress and tension, more
pregame eating and drinking, and
inclement weather conditions. Atten
dance is also a determining factor, he
said.
"The more people attending a game,
the greater the chance that a cardiac
case wilf develop," he said. "And heart
disorders are our most serious problem
because they are matters of life and
death."
Fuenning said there are actually two
teams of emergency personnel and
equipment in Memorial Stadium during
Nebraska games. One team covers the
stadium while the other covers the
Lincoln area and backs up the first
emergency team, he said.
Emergency medical technicians, port-
able stretchers and oxygen are located
at both ends of the stadium and can be
summoned if a spectator collapses or
complains of chest pains, Fuenning
said.
Basic life support
Basic life support begins immediately
in the stands when mobile team
personnel reach a victim, Fuenning
said. Recovery chances are better If a
heart attack victim receives medical
attention within three to five minutes of
his attack, he said.
Once inside the life support building
under the northwest corner of the
stadium, a victim receives heart therapy
according to the situation while his heart
is monitored by cardiac specialists,
Fuenning said.
As soon as the victim's condition has
stabilized he is moved to one of
Lincoln's three coronary care units, he
said.
The life support system costs UNL
$1,182 per season, including 11 compli
mentary football tickets and $25 for each
intern who covers a certain area of the
stadium, Fuenning said. This means the
average cost per life saved through the
program amounts to $84, he said.
Voluntary service, equipment
All other services and equipment
provided are voluntary, Fuenning said.
Federal, state and local funds and
grants are not used to finance the
program, he said.
"I think our life support unit
volunteers deserve a major tribute,"
Fuenning said. "They are making a
community contribution the university
should be thankful for."
Fuenning said the project is support
ed by the Red Cross, Boy Scouts,
Lincoln Mobile Heart Team, UNL,
Lincoln police, Nebraska Heart Associa
tion and the Lancaster County Medical
Society.
Some of these groups provide funds
and others provide assistance in the
education of program personnel, he
said.
Fuenning added that it may be
necessary to expand the life support
system to cover basketball games when
the new fieldhouse is completed be
cause of the increase in tendance and
possible increase of cardiac incident.
Correction
Not all leassu.can be terminated simply by
giving the landlord 30 days notice as was indicated
in the Daily Nebraskan, Dec. 5.
According to David Rasmussen, ASUN Student
Legal Services lawyer, there are a variety of leases
and a variety of notice requirements. Getting out
of a lease is not as simple as giving 30 day's
notice, he said.
