Summary

On-scene extracorporeal pulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) seems to speed up the start of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and shorten low flow during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in case of refractory cardiac arrest. The primary goal is to verify the benefit of on-scene ECPR in terms of shortening the collapse-to-ECMO interval. The secondary goal is to compare outcomes in the on-scene ECPR group with hospital cannulation.

Conditions

  • Cardiac Arrest (CA)
  • Cardiogenic Shock

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Transfer with ongoing mechanical chest compression to hospital followed by hospital ECMO cannulation

ECPR (Extracorporeal Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) is a critical, advanced resuscitation technique using Veno-arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation for patients in cardiac arrest where conventional CPR fails, functioning as a bridge to restore circulation and oxygenation by pumping and oxygenating blood outside the body before returning it.

PROCEDURE

Prehospital ECMO cannulation on scene of cardiac arrest

ECPR (Extracorporeal Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) is a critical, advanced resuscitation technique using Veno-arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation for patients in cardiac arrest where conventional CPR fails, functioning as a bridge to restore circulation and oxygenation by pumping and oxygenating blood outside the body before returning it.
