A temporary pacemaker was implanted, and she was admitted to the ICU with cardiogenic shock. She was worked as a full code, and ROSC was achieved. She was taken to the cath lab, where she was found to have 100% in-stent restenosis of the proximal LAD. Later the next day, she went into cardiac arrest again.
