Doctors who treated a young girl after a stabbing on Parnell Square describe working under urgent conditions as they tried to save her life. According to accounts from the scene, paramedics and doctors continued resuscitation efforts while assessing her responsiveness. Dr Michael Boyle, head of the neonatal department at the Rotunda Hospital, says he believed the child had died when he began examining her and that, when paramedics paused chest compressions, he checked for a pulse at the femoral artery but found none. The reports characterize the resuscitation as fast-moving and continuous, with clinicians “running with things” as they carried out emergency procedures. Both sources focus on the assessment and immediate attempts to revive the girl during the initial response. They do not, in the provided excerpts, add details about the suspect, the motive, or the girl’s later condition. The available information centers on doctors’ description of their actions at the scene and their belief, during the assessment phase, that the girl may already have been deceased.
