Good neurological outcome after accidental hyopthermia presenting with asytole.
Der Anaesthesist 2017 March
A 43-year-old woman became exhausted and fainted on descent at 1127 MAMSL altitude and snowfall. A rescue team diagnosed asystole. With manual cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) she was transported to the next extracorporeal life support (ECLS) center. Admission temperature was 20.7 °C. CPR continued until ECLS was initiated. Two days later she was awake, orientated, and with no neurological deficits. With hypothermic cardiac arrest, a favorable outcome depends on early continuous CPR, triage, and ECLS rewarming. It holds true that "nobody is dead until they are warmed and dead" if one cools first and arrests thereafter.
