Coronary Artery and Right Ventricular Perforation Due to Mechanical CPR Trauma

Mechanical cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) devices provide consistent, high-quality CPR but have been associated with a risk of visceral organ injury. However, these devices are used when traditional CPR is logistically difficult, such as during primary percutaneous coronary intervention. The fo...

Sumario:Mechanical cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) devices provide consistent, high-quality CPR but have been associated with a risk of visceral organ injury. However, these devices are used when traditional CPR is logistically difficult, such as during primary percutaneous coronary intervention. The following patient case illustrates mechanical CPR device use resulting in ventricular and coronary artery injury. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.)
