1 However, it is important to understand that death from hemoptysis is almost always due to hypoxia or asphyxiation (blood impedes gas exchange in the lungs, typically because of bleeding from high-pressure bronchial arteries into the lungs) as opposed to hemodynamic instability. 2021;42(1):145-159.

After several cycles of defibrillation, epinephrine, and amiodarone, the patient remains in cardiac arrest. Current AHA guidelines do not recommend routine use of calcium in cardiac arrest (Panchal, et al., Calcium acts as a vasopressor and inotropic agent (Lindqwister, et al., He is found to be in ventricular fibrillation (VF).

As reported within the 6th edition Manual of Emergency Airway Management, there are cardiac arrest rates between 1% and 4%, with other complications (mostly hypoxemia and hypotension) as high as 30% in patients with first-pass success [1, pg 29; 4-10]. And according to a paper from Russotto et al. So, how do we do it?

1 In addition to intentional overdoses, there are multiple case studies of abuse (ingestion, insufflation, injection). QRS > 100 msec can give sodium bicarbonate 1-2 mEq/kg IV boluses. 9-12 Do not use this prophylactically in bupropion overdoses. Other Norepinephrine or epinephrine are preferred vasopressors when needed.

Multiple attempts at defibrillation, epinephrine, and amiodarone have been unsuccessful. 1 Overall, survival is poor following cardiac arrest, and is affected by factors including age, comorbidities, witnessed arrest, early CPR, early defibrillation, and return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC).
