Revascularization of the culprit lesion remains one of the few established treatments though there are numerous other unproven modalities including extracorporeal life support (ECLS). Extracorporeal Life Support in Infarct-Related Cardiogenic Shock. Did they get bystander CPR? Zeymer HT et al. Control: 53.4%

The paramedics achieve return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after CPR, advanced cardiac life support (ALCS), and Intubation. Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is responsible for the majority (60%) of all OHCAs in patients. EMS arrives and finds the patient in monomorphic ventricular tachycardic (VT) cardiac arrest.

Emergent coronary angiography is not recommended over a delayed or selective strategy in patients with ROSC after cardiac arrest in the absence of ST-segment elevation, shock, electrical instability, signs of significant myocardial damage, and ongoing ischemia (Level 3: no benefit).

She was unable to be defibrillated but was cannulated and placed on ECMO in our Emergency Department (ECLS - extracorporeal life support). ECMO Flow was achieved after approximately 1 hour of high quality CPR. Angiography showed normal coronaries. 2) overlooked obstructive coronary disease (e.g., The K was normal.

Treatment of cardiac arrest and life-threatening toxicity due to poisoning often requires specialized treatments that most clinicians do not use frequently such as antidotes and venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, in addition to effective basic and advanced life support.

However, vertical flow can result in myocardial injury secondary to coronary artery spasm. Prolonged CPR should be considered as outcomes are generally good, even if asystole is the presenting rhythm. Advanced Paediatric Life Support [Internet].

1 The primary goal of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is to optimize coronary perfusion pressure and maintain systemic perfusion in order to prevent neurologic and other end-organ damage while working to achieve ROSC. There was no significant difference in cooling method between original cohorts.
