Optimization of Transport and Use of a Mobile ECMO Team in Patients With Sudden Cardiac Arrest in the Moravian-Silesian Region

University Hospital Ostrava

Status: Enrolling

Conditions: Cardiac Arrest With Successful Resuscitation; Cardiac Arrest, Cause Unspecified

Treatments: Procedure: Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR)

Study type: Observational

Funder types: Other

Identifiers

NCT07009652

About

This study evaluates the feasibility of implementing a mobile extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) team and optimizing patient transport logistics.

Full description

The aim of the study is to improve neurological outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) cases in the Moravian-Silesian Region. By analysing regional epidemiological and demographic data, the project aims to identify key factors for reducing the time from collapse to the initiation of ECMO and to support the development of effective protocols for extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR).

Enrollment: 100 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: 3 to 60 years old
