Could a simple breathing trick double survival from cardiac arrest?
NCT ID NCT06939335
First seen Jan 21, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 23 times
Summary
This study tests whether adding a small amount of air pressure (called PEEP) to the breathing tube during CPR helps restart the heart and improves survival in adults whose heart stops outside a hospital. About 132 participants will be randomly assigned to receive either standard CPR or CPR with PEEP. The goal is to see if this simple change can lead to more people surviving with good brain function.
