Incredible. Hats off to them for not giving up. I suspect many supposedly dead people could be saved if enough effort was made to save them.

usually after 40-45 min of continuous coding if you get someone back it’s not a good thing. By that time there is usually devastating neurologic injury. The exception is young people. However it is quite unusual for a heart that has been down that long to restart successfully. This poor family - they obviously have some sort of congenital heart issue to have 2 kids go down in their teen years. My heart goes out to them. hopefully they can figure out what to do for this child - probably an implanted defibrillator at a minimum
