What are the recommended therapies to reduce total ischemic time in patients with STEMI and out-of-hospital cardiac arrest?
Therapeutic hypothermia should be started as soon as possible in comatose patients with STEMI and out-of-hospital cardiac arrest caused by ventricular fibrillation (VF) or pulseless ventricular tachycardia (VT), including patients who undergo primary. Immediate angiography and PCI when indicated should also be performed in resuscitated out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients whose initial ECG shows.
