• Description: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation especially in patients with acute myocardial infarction is a common part of the cathlab work. Really problematic can be the need for cardiac massage during the procedure requiring interruption of the cathetrisation and beginning of the external cardiac massage manually. In this case we report the use of relatively new and highly effective technique – automated external cardiac massage LUCAS (Lund University Cardiac Arrest System). Despite some technical limitations it is possible to continue with the procedure during the massage.
