A pediatric case of autoresuscitation

Justin T Tretter et al. Pediatr Emerg Care. 2015 Feb.

Abstract

Autoresuscitation (the Larazarus phenomenon) after cessation of cardiopulmonary resuscitation has been systematically reviewed in the adult literature, with only 3 reported cases in pediatrics, although its mechanism remains unclear. We describe a pediatric case of comparatively delayed autoresuscitation with survival far surpassing previously reported pediatric cases.
