1 OBJECTIVE: Determine if vasopressin therapy in combination with epinephrine was associated with improved outcomes in patients with cardiac arrest compared to epinephrine alone. Epinephrine arginine vasopressin Homo sapiens
2 Subgroup analysis of ROSC in patients with an arterial pH of <7.2 (n = 35) showed an increased rate of ROSC (63% vs 37%, P = 0.01) in the vasopressin plus epinephrine group versus the epinephrine alone group, respectively. Epinephrine arginine vasopressin Homo sapiens
3 CONCLUSIONS: Vasopressin in combination with epinephrine demonstrated improved ROSC in cardiac arrest patients with initial arterial pH <7.2 compared with epinephrine alone, without improving survival to hospital discharge. Epinephrine arginine vasopressin Homo sapiens
