EXPERIMENTAL
Introduction
Adrenaline is the recommended drug for the treatment of
cardiac arrest (CA) both in children and adults based on
its vasoconstrictive and inotropic effects [1]. Although
many efforts have been made to improve the results of

Methods
International guidelines for the care of experimental animals were applied throughout the study; the experimental
protocol was approved by the Gregorio Maranons
Institutional Ethical Animal Investigation Committee.
Seventy-one healthy 2-to-3-month-old Maryland pigs
with a mean weight of 9.1 (2.2) kg were used.
Initial anaesthesia was performed with intramuscular
ketamine and atropine, followed by propofol, fentanyl and
atracurium for oral endotracheal intubation.
The animals were ventilated using a mechanical ventilator (Drager SA2, Babylog N, Lubeck, Germany) with a
respiratory rate of 20 breaths/min, tidal volume of 10 ml/
kg, FiO2 of 50% and PEEP of 3 cmH2O. Ventilation was
adjusted to achieve an expired CO2 (EtCO2) between 33
and 35 mmHg and a PaCO2 between 35 and 45 mmHg.
Sedation and muscle relaxation (propofol 10 mg/kg/h,
fentanyl 10 mg/kg/h and atracurium 2 mg/kg/h by continuous infusion) were maintained throughout the
procedure, inhibiting the presence of spontaneous respiration. Monitoring included ECG, peripheral oxygen
saturation (Visconnet" monitor, KGB, Madrid, Spain),
