NCT06153160

Brief Summary

The purpose of the research (pilot study) is to determine the impact of the use of the autotransfusion device on hemodynamic parameters during resuscitation. 24 people will be included in the pilot study (12 people will be included in the intervention group - with the usage of "autotransfusion socks" during resuscitation and 12 people in the control group - without "autotransfusion socks"). Investigators will compare the hemodynamic parameters and also neurological outcome between both groups.

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Cerebral Performance Category Scale

    Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  • Tissue/skin malfunction under HemaShock Socks

    From removal of the HemaShock socks up to 15 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Patients with HemaShock device

EXPERIMENTAL

12 patients in cardiac arrest will receive HemaShock device during resuscitation. All other interventions will be made following guidelines.

Device: HemaShock device

Patients with-out HemaShock device

NO INTERVENTION

12 patients in cardiac arrest will not receive HemaShock device during resuscitation. All other interventions will be made following guidelines.

Interventions

The HemaShock is a tight silicone ring attached to a pressure stocking. It comes wrapped into a doughnut and has a set of handles. The operator simply puts the doughnut over the foot or hand, and pulls on the handles to unravel the HemaShock while applying pressure throughout the appendage. The device displace blood from limbs to central blood system, thus improving preload and cardiac output.
