Comments were made on some thought-provoking articles, which included articles that dealt with cardiac arrest (CA). Two articles on CA elaborate on the role of automated compression devices to provide chest compressions during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in "hostile" environments and on a predictive model in cases of out-of-hospital CA (OHCA). CPR after CA has been practiced for centuries, and the evolution until current modern-day practices are discussed.

Patients with restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) were previously considered poor candidates for mechanical circulatory support due to technical limitations related to restrictive ventricular physiology and small ventricular size, limiting the ability to provide adequate flows and decompress the heart. Literature examining use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in this population consists of a single case series reporting no survivors. We report our experience providing ECMO in children with RCM or HCM at a large pediatric quaternary cardiac center.
