In addition to early intralipid, seizures should be treated with benzodiazepines and standard Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) guidelines should be followed for arrhythmias and cardiac arrest, with some notable modifications. Smaller doses of epinephrine are recommended (start at <1mcg/kg).

This was a before and after study to see if advanced cardiac life support (ACLS) techniques, including IV epinephrine, would improve survival to discharge. This step is controversial, and we have covered it on the SGEM with the classic OPALS trial by Legend of Emergency Medicine Dr. Ian Stiell ( SGEM#64 ).

ECPR vs. ACLS Spoon Feed: Early extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR, aka ECMO) was not superior to standard advanced cardiac life support (ACLS) for 180-day survival with good neurological outcome, but there may be a silver lining.

Supportive care includes: protecting the airway if necessary, supplemental oxygen if needed, and vasopressor support if the patient is hypotensive. For patients who in cardiac arrest standard Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) should be initiated.
