AutoPulse Compared With Manual Technique for OHCA Patients on Outcome and CPR Process.

Cardiac ArrestOut-Of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest

The AutoPulse Resuscitation System Model 100 (ZOLL Medical Corporation, Chelmsford, MA, US) ZOLL has been used as a standard treatment for a number of subjects in this trial and granted CE marking for Europe in November of 2003. The AutoPulse device is an automated, portable, battery-powered, load-band-distributing (LDB), chest compression device, which provides chest compressions as an adjunct to performing manual cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Use of the device is intended to provide consistent chest compressions without interruption to a victim of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OOHCA), to reduce the impact of rescuer fatigue due to application of manual CPR, and to enable rescuers to address additional patient needs. In the present study investigators will compare electronic data generated during cardiopulmonary resuscitation stored in the different multimonitores between LDB and manual chest compressions.

Neuropsychological Outcome After Cardiac Arrest

Heart ArrestOut-Of-Hospital6 more

This study is a sub-study to the large pragmatic Target Temperature Management 2 Trial (TTM2-trial, ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02908308), assessing effectiveness of controlled hypothermia after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). This study is designed to provide detailed information on cognition after OHCA and its relationship to associated factors as emotional function, fatigue, and sleep. A secondary aim is to utilize this information to validate a neurocognitive screening battery used 6 months after OHCA in the TTM2-trial. Approximately 7 and 24 months after OHCA, survivors at selected TTM2 study sites will perform a standardized neuropsychological assessment including performance-based tests of cognition and questionnaires of behavioral and emotional function, fatigue, and insomnia. At 1:1 ratio, a control group of myocardial infarction (MI) patients but no occurrence of cardiac arrest will be recruited and perform the same test battery. Group differences at 7 and 24 months will be analyzed per cognitive domain (verbal, visual/constructive, short-term working memory, episodic memory, processing speed, executive functions). Results of the OHCA survivors on the TTM2 neurocognitive screening battery will be compared with neuropsychological test results at 7 months time.

Application of Mechanical Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Devices and Their Value in Out-of-hospital...

Out-of-hospital Cardiac Arrest

The aim of this study was to analyse a large CPR database, the German Resuscitation Registry, to evaluate potential benefits of mechanical CPR devices over manual CPR in adult cardiac arrest victims. The primary endpoint considered is ROSC.

PEACE study retrospectively evaluate patients who suffered an out-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and who underwent a coronary angiography, enrolled in the registry of the Province of Pavia (Italy), Ticino Region (Switzerland), Wien region (Austria) and Nicosia area (Cyprus) to comprehend the best timing for post-ROSC ECG acquisition in order to reduce the number of false positive and to select the best candidates for emergency coronary angiography.

Brain Oxygenation During Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation

Cardiac ArrestOut-Of-Hospital

The study is aimed to assess (a) the incidence of hyperoxia at the point of return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and (b) the role of arterial blood oxygen partial pressure to brain oxygenation during out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. 80 adult patients will be recruited in a physician staffed helicopter emergency medical services. Brain regional oxygen saturation and invasive blood pressure are monitored until hospital admission and arterial blood gases are analyzed immediately when the unit arrives to the patient and again at the time of ROSC.

Doppler Sonography of Cerebral Blood Flow for Early Prognostication After Out-of-hospital Cardiac...

Cardiac Arrest

Objective: To assess neurologic prognostication by early Transcranial Doppler Sonography (TCD) in comatose survivors after cardiac arrest. Design: Prospective study between May 2016 and November 2017 in a medical intensive care unit and cardiac intensive care unit in a university hospital. Patients: all comatose patients older than 18 years successfully resuscitated from an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Patients for whom OHCA is associated with traumatic brain injury, no window for TCD measurements, or dead before neurological prognostication are excluded.

Prognostic Value of P30 After Cardiac Arrest

Out-Of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest

This study aims to examine whether P30 wave of somatosensory evoked potentials (SEP) is related with outcome after cardiac arrest. The study design is a prospective, multicenter-observational study. Patients survived after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest undergoing hypothermic-targeted temperature management will participate in the study. Relationship of P30 wave of SEP with the neurologic outcome on hospital discharge will be evaluated.

Mechanisms of Ultra-acute Hyperglycemia After Successful Resuscitation From Out-of-hospital Cardiac...

Heart ArrestCardiac Arrest

The aim of the study is to describe the mechanisms of ultra-acute hyperglycemic response after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) in patients suffering out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. The investigators hypothesize that ischemia and reperfusion injury leads decreased secretion of insulin and glucose-like peptide 1 (GLP-1). Two blood samples will be drawn: (1.) Immediately after ROSC and (2.) 60 minutes after first sample. Concentrations of glucose, insulin, glucagon and GLP-1 will be compared between the samples. Metabolic profile will be compared between: (1.) diabetic and non-diabetic patients and (2.) survivors and non-survivors.
