Summary

A prospective uncontrolled study to verify the feasibility and practicability of percutaneous stellate ganglion block (PSGB) in patient suffering from a refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) due to a shockable rhythm and the eventual occurrence of complication related to it. The study will also assess whether the rate of return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) until admission and transfer of care to the receiving hospital is higher in the patients treated with PSGB as compared to historical controls.

Conditions

  • Out-Of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest
  • Ventricular Fibrillation Sustained

Interventions

PROCEDURE

PSGB

Percutaneous stellate ganglion block: injection of 10 mL of local anaesthetic (lidocaine 2%) at the C6 level using the anatomic technique or the echo-guided technique The anaesthetic that will be used for PSGB is lidocaine.
