Official title

Proposal for the Organisation of the Procedure for Extracorporeal Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation of Patients With Sudden Cardiac Arrest in the Pre-hospital Environment of the Moravian-Silesian Region

Overview

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

Detailed 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).

Interventions

  • Procedure Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR)
    Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (commonly known as ECPR) is a method of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) that passes the patient's blood through a machine in a process to oxygenate the blood supply.

Primary outcome measures

  • Neurological outcome after 30 days (CPC score) [Time frame: 30 days]
Secondary outcome measures (3)
  • Time from collapse to initiation of ECMO [Time frame: Up to 2 hours]
  • Transport time to the ECMO centre [Time frame: Up to 2 hours]
  • Arrival time for the mobile ECMO team to the scene [Time frame: Up to 2 hours]

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion criteria

  • out-of-hospital cardiac arrest
  • indication for ECPR

Exclusion criteria

  • death at the scene of the accident
  • withdrawal of the informed consent

Criteria are shown verbatim from the registry (in English). Final eligibility is always assessed by the study center.
