Effect of CPR in maintaining brain tissue oxygen (PbtO2) during a cardiac arrest

•Capturing direct brain tissue oxygen tension (PbtO2) during resuscitation is rare in clinical practice.•We report a case of a patient who had a cardiac arrest and resuscitation with a PbtO2 monitor in-situ.•Despite immediate chest compressions there was a rapid development of cerebral hypoxia.•This...

Description
Summary:•Capturing direct brain tissue oxygen tension (PbtO2) during resuscitation is rare in clinical practice.•We report a case of a patient who had a cardiac arrest and resuscitation with a PbtO2 monitor in-situ.•Despite immediate chest compressions there was a rapid development of cerebral hypoxia.•This reinforces the importance of early resuscitation to prevent brain hypoxia.
