Coenzyme Q10 in Post-Cardiac Arrest Cerebral Resuscitation
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Coenzyme Q10 and Placebo for Cardiac Arrest and Sudden Cardiac Arrest. Completed, enrolled 10 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Specific Aim #1: To determine if levels of CoQ10 are low post-cardiac arrest (CA). We will perform a prospective trial with the primary endpoint of describing the prevalence of low serum CoQ10 levels. Specific Aim #2: To determine if CoQ10 levels in post-CA patients can be increased with the administration of exogenous CoQ10.. We will perform a randomized control trial (RCT) of post-CA patients with the secondary endpoint of comparing CoQ10 levels among those randomized to CoQ10 supplementation vs placebo.

Timeline
Interventions
Patients will receive CoQ10 200mg three times per day for 7 days, until return to baseline neurologic status, or until death/discharge (whichever comes first). CoQ10 will be given through pre-existing NG or OG tube, and mixed with 20 ml of chocolate Ensure so as to blind investigators and staff.
Patients will be given Chocolate Ensure via NG/ OG 3x daily as a placebo.
