Thrombolysis of a massive intracardiac thrombus during resuscitation: documentation by transoesophageal echocardiography
BMJ case reports(2021)
摘要
Acute pulmonary embolism is a frequent potentially reversible cause of sudden cardiac arrest. The early diagnosis is challenging but essential for further treatment. New therapeutic options in resuscitation, such as extracorporeal resuscitation, are leading to frequent transports of patients to emergency rooms with ongoing resuscitation. A transoesophageal echo performed during resuscitation can give hints for reversible causes for the cardiac arrest. We present a case of a 40-year-old female patient who was transferred to our department with ongoing resuscitation and received a transoesophageal echo immediately on arrival. The examination showed a massive intracardiac thrombus. The subsequent thrombolysis and following resuscitation were observed and documented via transoesophageal echo.
