Abstract

The purpose of this study was attemped to investigate the clinical presentation and pathophysiology of 74-year-old female who developed pneumoperitoneum as complications of chest compression from sudden cardiac arrest. Such chest compression is the same one excercised to by-stander and paramedics. A healthy 74 year female had a sudden mental deterioration while working at a restaurant. She was transfered from 119 emergency medical system to the hospital. After the symptom developed, by-stander called 119 who carry out 6 minutes Cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR). Defibrillation and CPR was carried out by health provider after the arrival, and the patients spontaneous circulation returned. After Return of spontaneous circulation(ROSC), patients was transferred to the nearst hopspital, but suspicious of myocardial infarction, she was again transferred to a larger scale hospital. At the hospital she took X-rays and Abdominal CT, and the results of suspicious gastro-intestinal perforation near gastro-esophageal junction, surgical repair was recommended. But in operation room, while operation went on, cardiopulmonary arrest appeared again, and she expired. For this reason, prehospital CPR needs more accurate localization of cardiac massage and serious consideration of positive pressure ventilation. Moreover, treatment of pneumoperitoneum after CPR needs more cautious consideration of patients hemodynamic stability.

본 연구는 74세 여자 환자가 심정지 후 일반인과 119구급대원들에게 시행된 심폐소생술의 합병증인 기복증에 대한 증례를 경험하였기에 이에 대한 임상양상과 병태생리를 조사하기 위해 시도되었다. 평소 건강했던 74세 여자가 식당에서 일하던 중 갑자기 발생한 의식저하로 쓰러졌다. 증상발생 후 즉시 119에 신고를 하였고 현장에서 목격자에 의한 즉각적인 심폐소생술이 시행되었으며, 현장에 도착한 119구급대원에 의한 심폐소생술과 제세동이 시행된 결과 자발순환을 회복하였다. 자발순환 회복 후 환자는 인근 2차병원으로 이송되어 시행한 심전도 검사에서 급성심근경색이 의심되어 추가적인 검사와 치료를 위해 3차병원으로 이송되었다. 이후 시행한 X-ray 검사와 복부전산화 단층촬영 검사결과 위문접합부의 파열과 다량의 기복증을 보여 수술치료를 결정하였으나 수술실에서 다시 심정지가 발생하여 심폐소생술을 시행하였으나 환자는 결국 사망하였다. 따라서 병원 전 현장에서 심폐소생술을 시행 할 때 흉부압박의 정확한 위치 선정이 필요하며 양압 환기에 대한 신중한 고려가 필요하겠다. 또한 심폐소생술 후 발생한 기복증의 치료는 환자의 혈역학적 상태를 충분히 고려해야 할 것으로 사료된다.
