2 Figure Top left: Electrocardiogram at return of spontaneous circulation in our patient shows an accelerated idioventricular rhythm with ST-segment elevation in the anteroseptal leads and right bundle branch block. Top right: Selective left coronary angiography in left anterior oblique view shows the total occlusion of the proximal left anterior descending coronary artery (arrow) in our patient. Bottom left: A patient with the Somanetics INVOS 5100C (Somanetics Corp, Troy, MI) cerebral oximetry device attached to his forehead. Bottom right: Cerebral oxygen saturation as a function of time. I=endotracheal intubation; E=extubation; ROSC=return of spontaneous circulation; rSO2=regional hemoglobin oxygen saturation; TH=therapeutic hypothermia.
