For example, ischemic injuries that can selectively damage the medial temporal lobe, such as strokes and cardiac arrest, rarely occur in children.
One patient required reoperation due to infective endocarditis of the bio-prosthesis while another, who was in cardiac arrest before surgery, had neurological damage.
Among 144 young people (35 years) who died suddenly because of cardiovascular disease, 14 had a "mechanical" and 130 an "arrhythmic" cardiac arrest.
The survival rate in cardiac arrest patients is 3 to 5 percent in out-of-hospital settings and 10 to 20 percent in hospital settings (17).
Finally, we counted all the "yes" values to estimate the current survival rate following cardiac arrest in hospital settings.
Following a technically satisfactory arterial switch procedure, this child had a sudden cardiac arrest 36 hours after the repair.
If severe may lead to cardiovascular collapse and cardiac arrest.
He developed cardiac arrest and died on his way to hospital.
