U.S., May 16 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06972329) titled 'Cerebral Near Infrared Spectroscopy in Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest and Neurological Prognosis' on April 17.
Brief Summary: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) prognosis remains poor : 7% of patients surviving without neurological impairment.
65% of patients dying after hospital admission were neurologically impaired. When treating a patient with CA, neurological outcome remains extremely difficult to predict, especially in the pre-hospital setting. Practitioners have very little objective information to help them with neuropronostication.
Although an EtCO2 level of < 10 mmHg is associated with a poor neurological prognosis, Eu...
