About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Out-Of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest focused on measuring Out-Of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest, Chest compression site, transesophageal echocardiography, end-tidal CO2

Eligibility Criteria

20 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria: Age ≥ 20 years-old Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest Non-trauma Exclusion Criteria: Obvious signs of death appears, such as separation of head and body, rigor mortis, livor mortis, cankered corpse......etc. Family members clearly express the willing of do not attempt resuscitation or patients who have registered advance care planning not to attempt resuscitation. Patients not suitable for transesophageal ultrasound, such as patients with esophageal tumor, those whose probe cannot be placed......etc. While the researcher is not available.

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

No Intervention

Experimental

Arm Label

Control group

Intervention group

Arm Description

Perform standard advanced life support. No examination of transesophageal echocardiography during cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

Perform examination of transesophageal echocardiography during cardiopulmonary resuscitation and adjust the chest compression site to avoid left ventricular outflow tract according to the result of transesophageal echocardiography

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Rate of sustained return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC)
successful restoration and maintenance of a patient's heartbeat and blood circulation after undergoing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) for at least 20 minutes

Secondary Outcome Measures

Rate of any return of spontaneous circulation
successful restoration and maintenance of a patient's heartbeat and blood circulation after undergoing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)
Rate of survival to admission
successful restoration and maintenance of a patient's heartbeat and blood circulation for 48 hours
Rate of survival to discharge
successful restoration and maintenance of a patient's heartbeat and blood circulation and able to complete treatment course till discharge
Rate of discharge with favorable neurological outcomes
using cerebral performance category score to measure neurologic outcomes of the patient at the time while patient's discharge. CPC1 and 2 are consider as favorable neurological outcomes, CPC3 and 4 are consider as unfavorable neurological outcomes
end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2)
measuring end-tidal carbon dioxide during resuscitation

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this single center, randomized clinical control trial is to determine that changing chest compression site during cardiopulmonary resuscitation according to the examination of the TEE could increase the level of end-tidal CO2, which represents the quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation, or not in adult patients with non-traumatic out-of-hospital cardiac arrest while comparing to those who don't receive examination of transesophageal echocardiography during cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
