Predicting recovery after cardiac arrest outside the hospital
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at information from people who had a cardiac arrest outside the hospital and were treated by emergency teams in Upper Austria. The goal is to find patterns that can help doctors predict how well someone might recover.

This study is trying to find better ways to predict recovery in people who had a cardiac arrest outside the hospital and are still unconscious in the intensive care unit. It may help doctors give more accurate information to families.
This study looks at how to predict brain recovery after certain types of cardiac arrest. It aims to improve decision-making so people are not misjudged due to “self-fulfilling prophecy.”
This trial studies a rehabilitation program for adults who survived a first out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. It may help improve recovery after leaving the hospital by using guided follow-up and surveys to see how people are doing over time.
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 measurements taken after someone survives an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest to see if the results can predict outcomes. It may help doctors understand which patients are likely to do better and guide care in the ICU.
This study is testing new tools and markers to better predict recovery after cardiac arrest when brain injury may occur. It involves adults who had a cardiac arrest outside the hospital and are being treated at Saint-Luc hospital.
