Successful prehospital resuscitation of a young female patient with myasthenia gravis experiencing cardiopulmonary arrest due to complete airway obstruction: a case report and review of the literature

Our findings highlights the unique challenges of managing airway obstruction in patients with myasthenia gravis and proposes an integrated prehospital strategy for airway management. This case underscores that successful prehospital return of spontaneous circulation is possible in patients with myasthenia gravis with acute airway obstruction; however, prevention remains paramount due to the risk of fatal outcomes. It emphasizes the need for integrated prehospital strategies, patient education on aspiration risk, and protocolized airway algorithms for neuromuscular disorders.
