Could a simple belt save lives in cardiac arrest?
Disease control Not yet recruitingThis study tests whether an external abdominal tourniquet can temporarily block blood flow to the lower body during cardiac arrest, redirecting it to the brain and heart. Researchers will try it on 5 adults with non-traumatic cardiac arrest outside a hospital. The goal is to see …

Pocket-Sized defibrillators for volunteers could revolutionize cardiac arrest response
Disease control Not yet recruitingThis study looks at whether giving volunteer community responders a small, portable defibrillator (about the size of a chocolate bar) helps them treat people having a cardiac arrest outside the hospital. Around 1,000 volunteers in Singapore will carry the device for up to a year …

Could less be more? new trial tests lower epinephrine dose for cardiac arrest
Disease control Not yet recruitingThis study looks at whether giving a smaller dose of epinephrine (0.5 mg) during a heart attack outside the hospital helps more people survive with better brain function than the usual dose (1 mg). About 4,336 adults will be randomly assigned to receive either the low or standard…

Gadget aims to perfect rescue breathing in cardiac arrest drills
Knowledge-focused Not yet recruitingThis study tests whether showing real-time visual feedback to EMS responders helps them deliver the right amount of air during simulated CPR. 80 rescuers will give breaths to a mannequin with and without feedback, using two different CPR strategies. The goal is to see if feedback…
