Our Dedicated Effort to Save a COVID-19 Confirmed Patient with Myocardial Infarction

F IG . 1. During the hospitalization to the intensive care unit, ventricular fibrillation with sudden cardiac arrest occurred. After electrical defibrillation, the patient was successfully resusci-tated. A 73-year-old COVID-19 confirmed female was brought to our tertiary cardiovascular center because of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Since cardiac arrest occurred with ventricular fibrillation (Fig. 1), an urgent coronary angiogram (CAG) was planned. Before CAG, all cathlab team members wore personal protective equipment (Fig. 2, Supplemental Video 1). CAG showed critical stenoses at both proximal and distal portions of left circumflex coronary artery (LCX) (Fig. 3A, Supplemental Video 2). After a 2.5×15 mm balloon was pre-dilated, we implanted two drug-eluting stents
