Abstract
This case report describes a prehospital extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) in a female patient who suffered a sudden cardiac arrest while shopping in a supermarket. The success of this intervention marks the first of its kind in our institution and highlights the potential of prehospital application of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) systems in life-threatening scenarios. Despite the complicated challenges faced in this case, the patient exhibited a favorable neurological outcome. This case underscores the potential of prehospital ECMO in cardiac arrest scenarios and the benefits of a coordinated, multidisciplinary approach. As prehospital ECMO evolves, it offers hope for saving lives in critical situations where rapid intervention is essential.
