Fig. 2From: Successful ECMO-cardiopulmonary resuscitation with the associated post-arrest cardiac dysfunction as demonstrated by MRIBaseline and post-arrest cardiac MRI. EF (ejection fraction), SV (stroke volume), CO (cardiac output), MAPSE (mitral annular plane systolic excursion), strain (peak global systolic left ventricular circumferential strain) and wall thickening before (baseline) and at ~300 min post-arrest. A paired two-tailed t test was used to compare baseline- and post-arrest measurements; asterisk: p value < 0.001Back to article page
