Check body temperature in adults after out-of-hospital arrest
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial measures core body temperature in adults who were taken to the hospital after an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. It aims to understand temperature patterns during care, which may help guide how patients are treated after the event.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are older than 18 years
- You had a cardiac arrest outside the hospital and were moved to a hospital
- There are not obvious signs that you have already died
- Injuries are not obviously incompatible with life
- Your death was not confirmed at the scene

This trial collects information from patients with accidental hypothermia (body temperature at or below 95°F) to learn more about what causes it, who it affects, and how it's treated. There is no experimental treatment—just data gathering. Your story could help researchers improve care for future cases.
This trial tests if starting body cooling before reaching the hospital can help protect the brain after a cardiac arrest. It is for adults who are unconscious after their heartbeat has been restored by emergency services.
This trial tests a new device called Thermodiag to measure body temperature. It is for patients in intensive care units who may need close monitoring of their temperature.
This trial tests if cooling the body (hypothermia) or keeping normal body temperature (normothermia) after emergency heart-lung support (ECMO) improves survival in adults who had a cardiac arrest outside the hospital.
This trial looks at how controlling body temperature after a cardiac arrest affects the bacteria in your gut and the substances they produce. It may help doctors understand how to improve recovery after resuscitation.
This study tests whether using body cooling for different lengths of time helps children recover better after an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. It focuses on children who remain very unresponsive after resuscitation and need a breathing tube and steady temperature control.
