Abstract
Abstract Background Epinephrine is routinely utilized in cardiac arrest; however, it is unclear if the route of administration affects outcomes in acute myocardial infarction patients with cardiac arrest. Objectives To compare the efficacy of epinephrine administered via the peripheral intravenous (IV), central IV, and intracoronary (IC) routes. Methods Prospective two-center pilot cohort study of acute myocardial infarction patients who suffered cardiac arrest in the cardiac catheterization laboratory during percutaneous coronary intervention. We compared the outcomes of patients who received epinephrine via peripheral IV, central IV, or IC. Results 158 participants were enrolled, 48 (30.4%), 50 (31.6%), and 60 (38.0%) in the central IV, IC, and peripheral IV arms, respectively. Peripheral IV epinephrine administration route was associated with lower odds of achieving return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC, odds ratio = 0.14, 95% confidence interval = 0.05–0.36, p
