Summary

Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest without resumption of spontaneous circulatory activity despite advanced medical resuscitation is considered refractory. Under certain well-defined conditions, today in many cities around the world and particularly in Paris, it benefits from resuscitation called ECPR (extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation). This technique consists of the installation of an extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) device allowing organ perfusion while waiting for a resumption of cardiac activity. Since 2011, the Paris SAMU (SAMU 75) has set up a team capable of implementing ECPR for refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrests. This team based within the SAMU of Paris at the Necker hospital (ECMO team) composed of an emergency doctor or anesthesiologist-resuscitator, a nurse anesthetist and an ambulance driver intervenes in Paris and its nearby region at the request of medical regulation. Given the growing development of this activity, it is essential to measure its effectiveness in real-life conditions.
