The prognostic value of agonal respiration in refractory cardiac arrest: a case series of non‐shockable cardiac arrest successfully resuscitated through extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation

Background Agonal respiration following out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest is associated with favorable neurological outcomes. Resuscitation using extracorporeal membrane oxygenation could contribute to achieving favorable neurological outcomes in patients with refractory cardiac arrest.
