RescueDoppler- a Disruptive Ultrasound Solution for Improved Outcome After Cardiac Arrest.

Norway285 participantsStarted 2024-09-19

Plain-language summary

RescueDoppler is an innovative, hands-free Doppler system designed for continuous monitoring of blood flow in the carotid artery, distinguishing between the presence and absence of a pulse. It is non-invasive, user-independent, and does not require specialized ultrasound expertise. The primary goal of this study is to assess the feasibility and clinical utility of RescueDoppler for monitoring carotid artery blood flow in patients experiencing sudden cardiac arrest. The multi-center study will be performed both pre-hospital and in-hospital.

Inclusion Criteria: Male or female, aged 18 years or older. Subjects experiencing a sudden cardiac arrest, either pre-hospital or in-hospital. Sudden cardiac arrest is defined as the abrupt loss of heart function, breathing, and consciousness. Exclusion Criteria: Subjects where resuscitation is not continued after the initial application of RescueDoppler or resuscitation efforts are halted due to a do-not-resuscitate order. Subjects deemed unable to comply with the study requirements as determined by the Investigator. Subjects with extensive trauma injuries that prevent proper attachment of the RescueDoppler patch.

What they're measuring

Number of patients with carotid peak blood flow velocity of more than 20 cm/second during cardiopulmonary resuscitation

Timeframe: From enrollment to the end after 12 months
