We're still talking about general odds here. None of which are satisfactorily granular for me.
There were complications when dalglia was born. Suddenly. He could have died or been permanently mentally disabled. Fortunately, we were already in the NRIE and within seconds a medical team was in the room. They acted like poetry in motion, like they were telepathically linked. Stuff happened. And dalglia was delivered safely.
Would I want to have waited for an ambulance? No. dalglia could have died. Would I want to have waited for the ambulance to reach the NRIE from the wrong side of the city? No. dalglia could have died.
I realise this experience may skew my opinion but: fuck that study.
Forget the statistics for a moment: can adding 30 minutes of delay to treatment of an ongoing life threatening situation increase the risk of death? Let's say... ::shakes magic 8-ball of deadly childbirth complications::...massive bleed out from mother after birth due to tearing.
