Bedside brain scans could revolutionize care after cardiac arrest
NCT ID NCT07197918
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a portable MRI machine to look for brain injury in patients who have had a cardiac arrest. Researchers will scan the brain multiple times over several days to see how injuries change. The goal is to make brain imaging available at hospitals without specialized scanners and to find signs that help decide which patients might benefit from future treatments. About 60 adults who remain unresponsive after cardiac arrest will take part.
