“…The primary outcome was the detection of a recent coronary occlusion on the systematic coronary angiogram performed at hospital admission. Among patients with multiple coronary lesions, a PCI was attempted only in patients with a recent coronary occlusion or an unstable lesion defined by classification of Lo et al (16), derived from a previous classification by Ambrose et al (17) that could be considered as the cause of cardiac arrest. PCI was deemed successful if it resulted in residual stenosis of 50% with thrombolysis in myocardial infarction grade 3 flow, as previously reported (5).…”

“…79,80 Access to PCI Up to 70% of patients with OHCA have coronary artery disease. Although 50% have acute coronary occlusion, [81][82][83][84][85][86][87][88][89][90][91] only a minority of patients with OHCA with ROSC who were transported to hospital have an ST-segment elevation on a 12-lead ECG. 92,93 Mortality after emergent angiography for STEMI patients in the setting of post-ROSC OHCA is greater than that in the setting of STEMI alone.…”

“…The potential contribution of coronary ischemia in OHCA was observed initially in postmortem case series and in angiography data obtained from survivors of sudden cardiac death. 4,25 Immediate coronary angiography followed by successful coronary intervention has been shown to be an independent predictor for survival and improved neurological outcomes for patients with OHCA, irrespective of the presence or absence of STEMI on the presenting ECG. The supportive data for emergency coronary angiography are most compelling in patients who manifest ST elevation on the surface ECG, because the benefit of emergency reperfusion of the infarctrelated artery is well established in this setting.…”

“…Accumulating clinical data now show that up to 70% of OHCA patients have coronary artery disease, and nearly half have an acute coronary occlusion. [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] These data underscore the importance of early coronary angiography, and reperfusion in these patients is likely similar to that in STEMI patients who have not had a CA.…”
