NCT04428060

Brief Summary

The PERSEUS protocol is a new approach to the resuscitation of highly monitored patients with cardiac arrest. It aims at the optimization of all the available physiological parameters and the full exploitation of both the "cardiac pump" and "thoracic pump'. This protocol will help to titrate chest compressions, ventilation, and vasopressor dosing to physiological parameters, increasing survival after cardiac arrest with favorable neurological outcome
