Acute Coronary Angiography After Resuscitated Cardiac Arrest Without ST-Elevation
Acute coronary angiography after resuscitated out-of-hospital cardiac arrest without ST-elevation on the electrocardiogram
Presenting authorSten RubertssonCross-Cutting Cardiology · Uppsala University, SwedenSten Rubertsson is Professor of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care at Uppsala University and a senior consultant (överläkare) at Uppsala University Hospital (Akademiska sjukhuset). His research focuses on cardiac arrest, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, mechanical chest compressions, and post-resuscitation care. He has served in academic leadership roles including deputy head of department and prodean for research education.
Overview
Pending results on immediate angiography in resuscitated OHCA without ST-elevation should not change practice; leaves open optimal post-arrest strategy until ESC 2026.
Key result
Acute coronary angiography after resuscitated out-of-hospital cardiac arrest without ST-elevation has pending results awaiting presentation at ESC Congress 2026.
Discussion
Expert reaction lands here the moment DISCO reports.
Puntos clave
- The trial investigates whether immediate acute coronary angiography improves clinical survival outcomes after resuscitated out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
- Late-breaking trial protocol assesses immediate invasive coronary angiography in patients without ST-elevation on an initial electrocardiogram trace.
- Findings may optimize post-resuscitation cardiac care pathways across emergency networks, though formal trial efficacy results remain currently pending.
