New study seeks to uncover hidden causes of cardiac arrest
NCT ID NCT05784480
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study involves 100 adults who have a cardiac arrest outside the hospital. Doctors will use portable ultrasound, blood tests, and a digital checklist to quickly find reversible causes, like a blocked artery or drug overdose. The goal is to see how often these causes are found and whether finding them improves survival and reduces stress on the medical team.
