Popis: Introduction: Aortic occlusion during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) increases systemic arterial pressures. Correct thoracic placement during the resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) may be important for achieving effective CPR. Hypothesis: The positioning of the REBOA in the thoracic aorta during CPR will affect systemic arterial pressures. Methods: Cardiac arrest was induced in 27 anesthetized pigs. After 7 min of CPR with a mechanical compression device, REBOA in the thoracic descending aorta at heart level (zone Ib, REBOA-Ib, n = 9), at diaphragmatic level (zone Ic, REBOA-Ic, n = 9) or no occlusion (control, n = 9) was initiated. The primary outcome was systemic arterial pressures during CPR. Results: During CPR, REBOA-Ic increased systolic blood pressure from 86 mmHg (confidence interval [CI] 71–101) to 128 mmHg (CI 107–150, P
