Test a care bundle for adults after witnessed cardiac arrest
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial studies a “care bundle” approach using special devices to improve care after an out-of-hospital or witnessed cardiac arrest. It may help by standardizing emergency treatment for people right after their heart stops.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are over 18 years old
- The event was a witnessed cardiac arrest
- You (or the team) know the collapse time pretty closely and it was within 20 minutes
- Your body size/shape should fit the bundle devices
- The arrest was not caused by a clear injury or drowning or hanging

This trial tests a set of treatments designed to protect the brain in people who remain unconscious after their heart restarts following a cardiac arrest. It may help improve recovery by preventing further brain injury.
This trial tests a treatment that uses a blood pressure cuff on your arms to try to protect your brain and organs after your heart stopped outside the hospital. You will be in the intensive care unit, and the study will check if this simple 'remote conditioning' can improve recovery.
This trial tests a treatment called ECPR, which uses a machine to pump blood and add oxygen after a cardiac arrest that doesn't respond to standard CPR and shocks. It aims to improve survival and recovery by quickly starting this support in the hospital.
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 trial tests different breathing techniques used by paramedics during cardiac arrest to see which approach improves survival. If you or a loved one has had a cardiac arrest, this study may help guide better care.
This trial is a registry, which means the researchers collect information about people who were treated in an intensive care unit after a cardiac arrest. It may help improve understanding of outcomes and care, which can guide future treatment.
