NCT03543332

Brief Summary

The Target Temperature Management trial 2 (TTM2) is an international multi-center study, that randomize patients with OHCA of a presumed cardiac or unknown cause to target temperature management at 33°C or normothermia but avoiding fever (37.8°C) for the first 24 hours after the OHCA. The TTM2 study (clinicaltrials.gov Identifier NCT02908308) includes a detailed follow-up of functional outcome, health-related quality of life and neurocognitive function at 6 and 24 months post-arrest. This protocol describes a sub-study within the TTM2 trial that specifically focus on physical activity among the OHCA survivors.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 80 Years
Sexall
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Surviving patients in the TTM2-trial are invited to a structured face-to-face follow-up visit at 180 days (+/- 2 weeks). Survivors at selected sites will be invited to an extended study on physical activity at their follow-up visit.

You may qualify if:

  • The TTM2 main trial includes adult, unconscious patients with sustained return of spontaneous circulation after cardiac arrest of a presumed cardiac origin. The aim is to include 100-150 OHCA-survivors to the sub-study.
