Oxygen saturation in blood after cardiac arrest
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at a measurement called central venous oxygen saturation in patients who have had a cardiac arrest. The goal is to see if this measurement can help predict how well patients do after their heart restarts.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 16 years old or older.
- You must be a critically ill patient in the intensive care unit.
- You must have had a cardiac arrest (your heart stopped beating).

This study tests a special sensor placed in a neck vein to continuously measure oxygen levels in the blood returning from the brain after cardiac arrest. The goal is to help doctors better understand and protect brain function during recovery in the ICU.
This trial collects health information from people who have survived a cardiac arrest (when the heart stops) and have been brought back to life. The information may help doctors improve care and recovery after this event.
This trial tests a targeted approach to manage oxygen levels in the brain for patients who received ECMO (a machine that does the heart and lung work) after a cardiac arrest that did not respond to standard CPR. The goal is to improve brain recovery and outcomes.
This study looks at quality of life and survival for teens and adults who are admitted to the ICU after a cardiac arrest. It may help doctors understand which care approaches lead to better outcomes and wellbeing.
This study looks at patients who had a cardiac arrest outside the hospital and are still unconscious after their heartbeat returns. The goal is to find early signs that predict when someone will wake up.
This trial uses a special light-based sensor on the forehead to measure oxygen levels in the brain after a cardiac arrest. The goal is to see if this measurement can help predict how well the brain will recover.
