Study CPR during surgery when the heart stops
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial looks at cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) provided right in the operating room when a patient’s heart stops. It may help improve how emergency care is delivered during surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your heart stops during an operation in the operating room
- You (or your legal representative) can give informed consent when required by the study
- You are not already receiving CPR when you first arrive in the operating room
- The situation happens during surgery (not before you enter the OR)

This trial studies the quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) given before and during time in the hospital after a cardiac arrest. It may help improve how CPR is delivered to improve outcomes for future patients.
This trial is studying cardiac arrests that occur in the operating room or other areas where an anesthesiologist is present. It aims to understand what happens and improve care for patients who experience a cardiac arrest during or after surgery.
This study tests emergency treatments for people who have had a cardiac arrest (heart stops beating) outside the hospital. It looks at two groups: people whose hearts stop despite CPR efforts, and people whose hearts have restarted. The goal is to see if these treatments can help patients survive and recover better.
This study looks at a treatment called ECMO, a machine that does the work of the heart and lungs, to help people whose heart has stopped and does not restart with standard CPR. Researchers want to learn if placing ECMO at the scene can improve survival.
This trial compares different CPR positions to see which works best for people whose hearts stop outside a hospital. It aims to improve survival by finding the most effective technique.
This study tests a different way of doing CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) when someone's heart stops. It aims to see if this adapted approach can improve outcomes for patients.
