ECG signs: 12 lead ECG with ST‐segment changes, T‐wave inversions, and/or Q waves. Physical signs: elevated cardiac markers on lab tests, and chest pain/pressure. Treatments: use of fibrinolytic therapy, PCI (percutaneous coronary intervention).
Most important intervention is to obtain IV access and administer IV fluids. Use a fluid challenge to determine if the arrest is related to hypovolemia. Deprivation of an adequate oxygen supply can be a significant contributing cause of cardiac arrest. Ensure that the airway is open.

The AHA ACLS protocol provides a structured algorithmic approach to managing cardiac arrest. Immediately upon recognizing cardiac arrest, high-quality CPR should be initiated, with chest compressions at a rate of 100-120 per minute and a depth of 2-2.4 inches.
