Traumatic Refractory Ventricular Fibrillation Successfully Treated with Intra-Arrest Esmolol
Here, we describe a case of refractory ventricular fibrillation (RVF) in an undifferentiated trauma patient that responded to intra-arrest esmolol. To our knowledge, this is the first case of RVF in an undifferentiated trauma patient that responded to intra-arrest esmolol. This case continues to sup...
