Avoid routine seizure prophylaxis in adult survivors of cardiac arrest (Level 3: no benefit), but treat seizures if they occur (Level 1: strong). Editorial Comment : Yes to PCI after arrest with STEMI on ECG. Treatment of nonconvulsive seizures (diagnosed by EEG only) is reasonable in adult survivors of cardiac arrest.

Circulation Assess heart rate, blood pressure, peripheral and central CRT, pulses and 3 lead ECG. Exposure Expose the patient in a systematic manner while keeping remaining body areas covered e.g. 1 limb at a time, to reduce the risk of hypothermia. Administer high-flow oxygen if indicated and consider arterial blood gas ( ABG ).

Before EMS arrived, she had "seizure activity" and became unresponsive. She arrived comatose and in cardiogenic shock and the following ECG was recorded. She underwent therapeutic hypothermia, and emerged from coma. She was defibrillated successfully from ventricular fibrillation and developed a perfusing rhythm.

ECG: Evaluate for ischemia, right heart strain. Hypothermia, hypotension, and vasoconstriction may affect pulse oximetry reading, which is based on light absorption from fingertip blood flow. Infectious: bacterial or viral pneumonia ( M. pneumoniae, C. Based on light absorption from blood flow at the sensor site (using HbA, not HbS).
