RESUMO
We report the case of a patient who presented an out-of-hospital cardiorespiratory arrest while being transported by the Helicopter Emergency Service, refractory to standard, electrical and medical treatment. The patient recovered spontaneous circulation after 58 minutes with heart arrest and 31 delivered shocks. The reanimation manoeuvres were monitored with capnography (titrated over 20 mmHg EtCO2). Upon arrival at the hospital, the patient went directly to the haemodynamic laboratory where a percutaneous coronary intervention was performed, with a stent in the right coronary artery. The patient was discharged after 8 days without any neurological handicap (cerebral performance category 1).

Presentamos el caso de un paciente que sufrió una parada cardiorrespiratoria extrahospitalaria en helicóptero sanitario, refractaria a tratamiento médico y eléctrico convencional. El paciente recuperó la circulación espontánea tras 58 minutos en paro cardiaco y 31 descargas eléctricas, estando monitorizado en todo momento de la reanimación cardiopulmonar con capnografía (valores > 20 mm/Hg). A su llegada al hospital, se le realizó una angioplastia primaria, colocándosele un stent en la arteria coronaria derecha. El paciente fue dado de alta hospitalaria, sin secuelas neurológicas (categoría de función cerebral 1) (AU)
