Study of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients in Korea
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial is for people whose heart stopped outside the hospital and who received emergency resuscitation, where emergency doctors believed it was caused by a heart problem. The goal is to learn how to better treat or manage this type of cardiac arrest.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your heart stopped outside the hospital (out-of-hospital cardiac arrest).
- Paramedics took you to a participating emergency department and tried to restart your heart.
- Emergency doctors said your arrest was likely due to a heart (cardiac) cause.
- You did not have a documented terminal illness or hospice care.
- You were not pregnant.
- You did not have a “Do Not Resuscitate” (DNR) order before the arrest.

This trial studies and checks decision rules doctors can use to decide when to stop CPR in patients who have an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. It may help make those decisions more consistent and safer across Asian countries.
This study looks at witnessed sudden cardiac arrest happening in residential areas, and tests whether a new first-responder approach gets help to people faster. It may help improve outcomes after cardiac arrest by improving the timing and coordination of emergency response.
This study collects information about people who had a cardiac arrest outside the hospital, where it is thought to be from a heart or blood-vessel cause. It helps researchers understand what happens and may improve future care, even though it is mainly about collecting data.
This Phase 3 trial studies treatments given after a person survives an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest to improve recovery and survival. It is for patients who stay unconscious for a short time after circulation returns, and who meet safety conditions.
This trial studies the best timing for chest compressions and airway management for adults who have sudden cardiac arrest outside the hospital. It may help improve survival chances by guiding first EMS responders on how to act sooner and more consistently.
This study records information about people who suffer an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest and receive automatic chest compressions. It focuses on specific heart rhythms and emergency timing, which may help improve future emergency treatment.
