    AbstractThe case of a seven-month-old infant presenting in full cardiac arrest and resuscitated utilizing a right tibial intraosseous access line is presented. The child who presented in asystole appears to be the first reported case of the successful use of the intraosseous route as the sole source of drug administration. Flow time from tibia to clinical cardiac response was noted to be less than three minutes, similar to those in animal arrest models.
