Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most common killer disease, responsible for about one-third of all deaths at ages above 35. The majority of all survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests present to the emergency department (ED) with an initial shockable rhythm (ventricular fibrillation or pulse-less ventricular tachycardia), which is a predictor of survival. Odds for survival are less for non-shockable rhythm and favorable neurologic outcomes decrease as the length of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) increases. The median time-to-return of spontaneous circulation among those with favorable neurological outcomes is less than 10 minutes. On the other hand, a large review of more than 64,000 patients with in-hospital cardiac arrests showed that patients with longer median resuscitation times had a greater chance of the return of spontaneous circulation and survival to discharge. We described a case of prolonged resuscitation lasting almost three hours of CPR followed by successful percutaneous intervention with a favorable neurologic outcome.
