It is never a good idea to translate something off the top of one's head, particularly in this field, unless "we" put a low confidence level!

disagree  liz askew: Medical references please?? This is important.//My point is "Recovered"; this just wouldn't be used in medical terminology. "Recovered from/Recovery from.." would.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Liz, take a look at this from JAMA http://www.docguide.com/dg.nsf/PrintPrint/44F9E62B9EE82E6E852571E7006AF61F The second paragraph describes exactly what happened according to the report, moreover it's in JAMA, so although "resuscitated cardiac arrest" is more common when googled, I'm going with "aborted cardiac arrest" because the terminology is good English, its definition fits the description of the events and it's used in JAMA. Thanks...you put me on the right track with your great research!

Asker: You got that right! :-)

Explanation:
"Recovered" might make sense if it modified the entire phrase [heart attack patient]
