Risk Stratification of Patients Presenting With Cardiac Arrest
In Brief
An observational study for Cardiac Arrest. Completed, enrolled 100 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Method: Single center, prospective, non-randomized, unblinded case series of all patients presenting with a cardiac arrest. The proposed study will collect data on all comatose patients presenting with cardiac arrest. The primary end point is death from any cause at 30 days from admission. Significance: Develop criteria to guide an invasive strategy for comatose patients presenting with cardiac arrest, and so avoid ineffective or even futile therapy which carry its own significant risks for patients in the future. The criteria, in turn, can serve as the basis for a prospective, randomized trial in the future.
