The increased accessibility of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation following the COVID-19 pandemic and the publication of the first randomized trial of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) prompted the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute to sponsor a workshop on ECPR. Two more randomized trials have since been published in 2022 and 2023. Based on the combined findings and review of the evidence, an international panel of authors identified gaps in science, inequities in care and diversity in outcomes, and suggested research opportunities and next steps.

Background: In some regions, females are less likely to receive public-initiated resuscitation, potentially due to the need to expose the chest and breasts for proper automated external defibrillator (AED) pad placement.

Methods: Studies that examined bra removal and outcomes associated with AED pad placement and defibrillation in cardiac arrest were eligible.
