Abstract
An electrical or ventricular storm is a life-threatening condition that must be treated as soon as possible. Here we have successfully saved a 32-year-old male patient with ventricular storm by going beyond the conventional treatment of ACLS. The ultrasound-guided stellate ganglion block terminates sympathetic over discharge thus terminates electrical storm. The emergency physicians need to be aware of the right timing, indication & ultrasound-guided nerve block technique as it is time a sensitive & final rescue technique to save the patient. Lack of expertise can lead to treatment failure or delay which can lead to poor resuscitation outcomes.
