RESUMO
We report about a prolonged resuscitation of a hypothermic patient (26.2°C) in stadium HT III of the Swiss Staging System (SSS). A mechanical chest compression with the Lund University Cardiac Assist System (LUCAS) and the rewarming with a haemodialysis device were implemented. After a resuscitation time of 200min and a body temperature of 32.1°C ventricular fibrillation occurred. After the defibrillation a return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) was established. The patient achieved a very good cognitive-mnestic result after the resuscitation but he suffered a neurological deficit in the meaning of paraplegia.
