We reported the case of a 70-year-old man who was admitted to neurologic wards for recurrent syncope for 3 years. Unfortunately, just 2 hours after his admission, he suddenly collapsed and failed to return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after a 100-minute standard cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Fortunately, he was timely suspected to have pulmonary embolism (PE) based on his sedentary lifestyle, elevated D-dimer and markedly enlarged right ventricle chamber on bedside echocardiography. After a rescue thrombolytic alteplase therapy, he was successfully resuscitated and good neurological recovery was achieved.
我们报告了一名70岁男性的病例,他因反复晕厥3年入住神经科病房。不幸的是,入院仅2小时后,他突然晕倒,在进行100分钟的标准心肺复苏(CPR)后未能恢复自主循环(ROSC)。幸运的是,基于他久坐的生活方式、D-二聚体升高以及床边超声心动图显示右心室明显增大,他被及时怀疑患有肺栓塞(PE)。经过溶栓药物阿替普酶的抢救治疗,他成功复苏,神经功能恢复良好。
