First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether emergency responders can safely use a special cooling vest on adults who have had a cardiac arrest and regained a pulse but remain unconscious. The vest is designed to cool the body quickly in the ambulance, which might protect the brain. The goal is to see if this approach is practical and acceptable before planning a larger trial to check if it truly improves recovery.
