Massive pulmonary embolism associated with cardiac arrest has an extremely high mortality in spite of cardiopulmonary resuscitation maneuvers. An early diagnosis of pulmonary embolism as cause of cardiac arrest and a rapid specific therapy able to obtain a restoration of pulmonary flow can improve the prognosis. The authors report a case of cardiac arrest for massive pulmonary embolism promptly diagnosed by echocardiography and treated by thrombolytic therapy with an initial favourable outcome.
尽管进行了心肺复苏操作，但与心脏骤停相关的大面积肺栓塞死亡率极高。早期诊断出肺栓塞是心脏骤停的原因，并迅速采取能够恢复肺血流的特异性治疗，可改善预后。作者报告了一例因大面积肺栓塞导致心脏骤停的病例，通过超声心动图迅速确诊，并采用溶栓治疗，初步取得了良好效果。
