- Abstract:
- Prehospital cardiac arrest is associated with a very poor prognosis. We report a case of complete neurological recovery after prolonged resuscitation involving the use of tenecteplase in a patient with undifferentiated cardiac arrest with a return of spontaneous circulation after 1 hour of resuscitation, where basic life support was commenced immediately by a bystanding family member. Factors associated with an increased chance of survival from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest are discussed as well as the role of thrombolytics in cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
