NCT04988906

Brief Summary

This is a before-and-after study examining the impact of real-time ventilation monitoring during out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Study investigators will compare ventilation quality (rate, volume) performed during the resuscitation without the real-time feedback (before phase), to ventilation quality with the use of real-time feedback using the Zoll Accuvent device (after phase).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Ventilation Volume

    Measurement of the volume of ventilation (mL) during resuscitation

    Day 1

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Feasibility of successfully using Zoll Accuvent device in the field Feasibility

    Day 1

  • Prehospital Return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC)

    Day 1

  • Ventilation Rate

    Day 1

Study Arms (2)

Before Arm

NO INTERVENTION

The before arm of the study prehospital providers will provide resuscitation as per standard practice. The providers will utilize the Zoll Accuvent device without activation of the real-time dashboard. This will allow us to collect baseline ventilation data.

After Arm

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The after arm of the study the prehospital providers will provide resuscitation as per standard practice. The real-time ventilation dashboard will be activated and the providers will use real-time feedback to monitor ventilation quality during the resuscitation.

Device: Zoll Accuvent Ventilation Monitor

Interventions

Provides real-time ventilation quality monitoring (rate and volume)

After Arm
