This study looks at whether extra training for emergency dispatchers improves how they handle calls about a cardiac arrest that happens outside the hospital. This could help get faster help to patients in these situations.
This study looks at how quickly and effectively first responders treat cardiac arrests that happen outside the hospital in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy. Researchers review past cases to understand which response methods work best to save lives.
This trial tests an investigational device called Neurescue, used alongside standard CPR and life support to treat adults who have had a witnessed cardiac arrest. It is designed for people whose heart cannot be restarted by a shock and who receive CPR very soon after collapse.
This study tests a different way of doing CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) when someone's heart stops. It aims to see if this adapted approach can improve outcomes for patients.
This trial tests a new way of giving CPR that combines chest compressions with a breathing rhythm. It's for people who had a witnessed cardiac arrest with a specific heart rhythm, got help quickly, and were treated with a mechanical CPR device.
This trial tests whether care from a specialist team helps people recover better after a cardiac arrest outside the hospital. If you were revived and brought to the emergency department with a pulse, you might be eligible.
