This table shows the laboratory test results of this patient at 3 different time points: immediately after the cardiac arrest, at 2 hours after cardiac arrest, and in the following day. It details the evolution of white and red blood cell counts, platelet levels, coagulation times (PT and aPTT), antithrombin III percentage, fibrin degradation products (FDP), D-dimer levels, and cardiac biomarkers such as hsTnI and CK-MB. These data indicate an acute stress response, potentially ongoing consumption coagulopathy, and significant myocardial injury, which align with the clinical diagnosis of an acute myocardial infarction leading to cardiac arrest.

aPTT = activated partial thromboplastin time, CK-MB = creatine kinase-MB, FDP = fibrin degradation products, hsTnI = high-sensitivity troponin I, mmol/L = millimoles per liter, ng/mL = nanograms per milliliter, PT = prothrombin time, RBC = red blood cells, s = seconds, WBC = white blood cells.
