Little is known about the impact of early invasive treatment in patients following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The present study investigated the clinical characteristics and long-term prognosis of 1254 patients with suspected acute coronary syndrome, including 65 with OHCA who underwent successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and 1189 patients who did not require CRP. All patients underwent immediate coronary angiography even if clear signs of myocardial infarction (MI) were absent. The incidence of ST-elevation and non-ST-elevation MI did not differ between the two groups. Cardiac biomarkers were significantly higher in CPR patients despite a shorter period from symptom onset to admission. The 6-month mortality rate was 29% in the CPR group and 4% in the non-CPR group, with > 90% of fatalities occurring = 3 weeks after admission. In summary, early invasive treatment leads to a considerably reduced mortality and improved prognosis in patients after OHCA.
