STEMI and Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest

Introduction

2013 ACCF/AHA Guideline for the Management of ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (DO NOT EDIT)[1]

2013 ACCF/AHA Guideline for the Management of ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (DO NOT EDIT)[1]

Evaluation and Management of Patients With STEMI and Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest (DO NOT EDIT)[1]

Class I
“1. Therapeutic hypothermia should be started as soon as possible in comatose patients with STEMI and out-of-hospital cardiac arrest caused by ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia, including patients who undergo primary PCI.[2][3][4] (Level of Evidence: B)”
“2. Immediate angiography and PCI when indicated should be performed in resuscitated out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients whose initial ECG shows STEMI.[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] (Level of Evidence: B)”
