Efficacy of Early Intravenous High-dose Vitamin C in Post-cardiac Arrest Shock.
Among patients admitted after an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in intensive care unit (ICU), almost two thirds of patients will develop in the first hours a post-cardiac arrest (CA) shock. This post-CA shock, combines cardiac and hemodynamic failure, generally resulting in multi-organ failure and early death in up to 35% …
Molecular Imaging of Primary Amyloid Cardiomyopathy
Cardiac amyloidosis is a major cause of early treatment-related death and poor overall survival in individuals with systemic light chain amyloidosis. This project will develop a novel approach to visualize cardiac amyloid deposits using advanced imaging methods. The long-term goal of this work is to identify the mechanisms of cardiac …
Inhaled Nitric Oxide for Cardiac Arrest in Pediatrics and Adults (iNOCAPA)
This study is a multi-center, double blind, randomized controlled trial of inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) in children and adults with cardiac arrest (CA). The purpose of this pilot study is to test the feasibility of rapidly randomizing patients to iNO or sham treatment during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) or shortly after …
Packed Red Blood Cell Transfusion During Cardiac Arrest
The purpose of this pilot interventional study is to collect preliminary data on administering packed red blood cell (PRBC) during cardiac arrest (CA). The primary objective is to assess the feasibility of PRBC transfusion during cardiac CA to help optimize the methods required to augment cerebral and other vital organ …
Diuretics vs. Afterload Reduction for Treatment of HeartLogic Alerts
The DART-HA study is a single-center, open label, trial intended to evaluate the clinical efficacy of standard treatment options for congestive heart failure (observation, diuretic or afterload reduction therapy) in patients without new symptoms who have developed abnormalities of the HeartLogic heart failure diagnostic feature.
Online Formation in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation in a Rural Area.
Background: Sudden death due to cardiorespiratory arrest has a high mortality and in most cases occurs in out-of-hospital. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) initiated immediately by witnesses doubles survival. However, rural areas present different challenges regarding the arrival of emergency services. As a result, the rural population could benefit from basic CPR …
The VENTOR Clinical Study
To evaluate the initial safety and effectiveness of the Ventor Airway System in providing short-term ventilation support in non-breathing subjects during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and respiratory arrests.
Feasibility of TEE During Cardiac Arrest in Dutch Emergency Departments
The goal of this feasibility study is to learn if Dutch ED providers are able to use transesophageal echocardiography during cardiac arrest. The main question it aims to answer is: • are the ED providers able to determine the area of maximal compression of the heart using TEE
The Impact of Real Time Ventilation Feedback on Ventilation Rate and Tidal Volume During Cardiac Arrest.
During out-of-hospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation, patient are first ventilated without ventilation feedback (but with a flowsensor connected), hereafter patients are ventilated with the use of ventilation feedback.
Post-CA Neuroprotection With Magnesium
The purpose of this pilot interventional study is to collect preliminary data on administering magnesium sulfate as a neuroprotective medication in patients who achieved Return of Spontaneous Circulation (ROSC) following Cardiac Arrest (CA). The primary aims are to assess the feasibility and safety of administering magnesium and measure serum markers …
