Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical Trial
High-dose epinephrine in adult cardiac arrest.
Recent studies suggest that doses of epinephrine of 0.1 mg per kilogram of body weight or higher may improve myocardial and cerebral blood flow as well as survival in cardiac arrest. Such studies have called into question the traditional dose of epinephrine (0.007 to 0.014 mg per kilogram) recommended for advanced cardiac life support. ⋯ High-dose epinephrine was not found to improve survival or neurologic outcomes in adult victims of cardiac arrest.
