Early angiography shows no benefit over a delayed or selective strategy with regards to the 30-day risk of death from any cause in patients with resuscitated out-of-hospital cardiac arrest without ST-segment elevation, finds a recent study. The study findings were published in the New England Journal of Medicine on August 29, 2021.

Myocardial infarction (MI) is a common cause of lead to out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Steffen Desch and colleagues aimed to determine the benefits of early coronary angiography and revascularization in resuscitated patients without electrocardiographic evidence of ST segment elevation.
