Use of resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) and ultrasound-guided left stellate ganglion block to rescue out of hospital cardiac arrest due to refractory ventricular fibrillation: A case report

Use of resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) and ultrasound-guided left stellate ganglion block to rescue out of hospital cardiac arrest due to refractory ventricular fibrillation: A case report

Out of hospital cardiac arrest from shockable rhythms that is refractory to standard treatment is a unique challenge. Such patients can achieve neurological recovery even with long low-flow times if perfusion can somehow be restored to the heart and brain. Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitatio...
