Abstract
Conscious survivors of OHCA with STEMI have excellent survival if they undergo immediate invasive coronary strategy. Since there is no obvious post-resuscitation brain injury in this subgroup of OHCA patients, it is probably shorter duration of myocardial ischemia driven by shorter delay from symptoms to EMS arrival that contributes to the good outcome, which is at least similar to STEMI patients without OHCA.
