What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study tracks people who experienced a suspected cardiac arrest and had a HeartStart HS1 defibrillator applied. The goal is to see how accurately the device detects shockable heart rhythms and delivers the right amount of energy, especially in children. By collecting data from real emergencies, researchers hope to confirm the device's safety and performance.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
HeartStart HS1 automated external defibrillator (AED)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could confirm that the HeartStart HS1 defibrillator reliably detects and treats dangerous heart rhythms, potentially improving survival from sudden cardiac arrest.
What could go wrong
This is an observational registry, not a controlled trial, so it cannot prove the device improves outcomes. Results depend on real-world data, which may be incomplete or biased.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Have been suspected of a circulatory arrest for any cause. * Have had HeartStart HS1 Defibrillator with electrodes: Adult SMART Pads Cartridge \[REF: M5071A\], Infant/Child SMART Pads Cartridge (REF:M5072A) applied to their body and powered up with HS1 battery (Model M5070A), regardless of whether a defibrillation shock was delivered Exclusion Criteria: * Subjects will be excluded if any of the following are present: * AED or pad use other than the HeartStart HS1 Defibrillator with above referenced Philips electrode pads. Note: Use of a device other than the Philips HeartStart HS1 AED does not preclude enrollment if the AED or an Advanced Life Support defibrillator was used after the HeartStart HS1 AED. * AED used for training purposes.
