I believe the answer is epinephrine. Asystole is condition where there is absence of ventricular contractions. It is treated by cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) combined with epinephrine. Epinephrine is an adrenaline that plays an important role by increasing blood flow to muscles and output of blood in the heart.
