Abstract
We present a case of resuscitation of a 38-year-old lady with ventricular fibrillation using the Lund University Cardiopulmonary Assist System (LUCAS), a mechanical cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) device. Return of spontaneous circulation was obtained after prolonged resuscitation but the patient eventually succumbed nine days after admission to the coronary care unit. The role of mechanical CPR devices in resuscitation in the accident and emergency department is discussed.
