Head-to-pelvis Computed Tomography Evaluation of Sudden Death Survivors

NCT03111043 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 104

Last updated 2024-05-09

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Out-of-hospital arrest can occur from multiple etiologies. In patients without an obvious reason for the sudden-death event, diagnostic evaluation is not clear. This study is to determine if early imaging with a head-to-pelvis CT scan may improve diagnostic accuracy, speed of diagnosis and potentially clinical outcomes.

Conditions

  • Sudden Death
  • Out-Of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Head to pelvis CT scan

Introduction of early head to pelvis CT scan within 6 hours of out of hospital arrest as an adjunct to standard of care (no randomization)
