Podcast 728: Angiography for Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest without ST Elevation

Podcast 728: Angiography for Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest without ST Elevation

Contributor: Nick Tsipis, MD

Educational Pearls:

  • Meaningful survival under 10% for out of hospital cardiac arrest
  • The most common cause of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is due to cardiac ischemia
  • Study looked at whether taking patients without ST elevation who had an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest with return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) should receive angiography upon arrival to the hospital
  • Took 530 patients and randomized to early vs. delayed angiography after resuscitation from out-of-hospital arrest
  • Found no benefit to early angiography using 30-day all-cause risk of death as the primary endpoint
