Successful Primary Coronary Intervention During Prolonged Mechanical Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation for Acute Myocardial Infarction-Related Cardiac Arrest

Abstract

We report a case of a male patient with an acute inferior myocardial infarction who underwent successful primary coronary intervention during prolonged cardiac arrest (220 minutes) and continuous resuscitation using a mechanical chest compression device. He achieved full neurological recovery. Mechanical compression devices may help maintain perfusion and improve outcomes in such scenarios.
