Side note: contemporary troponin drawn 1 hour after acute LAD occlusion should usually be negative, unless the event has been going on longer than the patients symptoms. After the second defibrillation the patient had an organized rhythm: Bradycardic escape/agonal rhythm, with large ST deviations.

CPR is taken over by responding crews, and he is placed on a cardiac monitor/defibrillator. After several cycles of defibrillation, epinephrine, and amiodarone, the patient remains in cardiac arrest.
