A method of treating a subject under cardiac arrest comprises the steps of: blocking the descending aorta (11) of the subject; then withdrawing blood from the subject; oxygenating the blood withdrawn from the subject; and perfusing the aortic arch (20) of the subject with oxygenated blood in an amount effective to deliver oxygen to the heart of the subject. This method enables the subject to continue to receive oxygenating material (i.e., blood in this instance) without the danger of volume overload that would be present if another oxygenated solution were continuously infused.

Ce traitement, destiné à un sujet subissant un arrêt cardiaque, consiste à: bloquer l'aorte descendante (11) du sujet puis à prélever du sang chez celui-ci, à oxygéner le sang ainsi prélevé, et à perfuser la crosse (20) de l'aorte du sujet avec ce sang oxygéné, en une quantité efficace pour amener cet oxygène au coeur du sujet. Ce traitement permet au sujet de continuer à recevoir une substance d'oxygénation (du sang dans ce cas, par exemple) sans qu'il courre le risque d'une surcharge volumique qui existerait si une autre solution oxygénée lui était perfusée en continu.
