Abstract
Treatment of patients with cardiac arrest includes basic and advanced life support (ALS) as outlined by the European Resuscitation Council. An integral part of ALS is the establishment of vascular access and administration of drugs including vasopressors and antiarrhythmics. Until recently, there has been limited evidence to show that administration of these drugs improved patient outcomes. However, several randomized clinical trials testing various drugs during cardiac arrest have been published within the last years and we review these in this article (Table 1). Drugs that are given in special circumstances without new trial evidence are not covered.
