The survival rate of patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest has improved in recent years; however, it remains low. One approach to improving outcomes in these cases is to implement point-of-care ultrasound as an integral part of advanced cardiac life support management. Due to its growing popularity among emergency physicians, several protocols for this examination have been developed; however, there are little data on its use in the prehospital setting. We present a case report on the role of ultrasound examination in cardiac arrest for both diagnostic and therapeutic management.
