CPR and life support before hospital in Ostrava
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial is testing a way to start CPR and emergency life support (ECPR) at the scene of a cardiac arrest in Ostrava. It might help if you or a loved one has a witnessed cardiac arrest that is likely caused by a heart problem, and you're under 70 years old.

- The cardiac arrest is likely due to a heart problem
- Someone saw the cardiac arrest happen
- A bystander gave CPR
- You are age 70 or younger

This study looks at how first responder help affects survival after a cardiac arrest outside of a hospital. It might help improve emergency response in your region.
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 study tests a new way of combining chest compressions with breathing support for people whose heart stops suddenly. It aims to see if this special breathing pattern during CPR improves outcomes.
This trial tests whether a specific breathing technique (PEEP) during CPR helps improve outcomes for adults who have a cardiac arrest outside the hospital and are being treated by emergency medical teams.
This trial tests whether giving ECMO (a heart-lung machine) to people in cardiac arrest before they reach the hospital can improve survival. It might be an option if you had a witnessed heart attack and received CPR quickly.
