Study Summary

This is a before-and-after study examining the impact of real-time ventilation monitoring during out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Study investigators will compare ventilation quality (rate, volume) performed during the resuscitation without the real-time feedback (before phase), to ventilation quality with the use of real-time feedback using the Zoll Accuvent device (after phase).

Eligible Conditions
  • Cardiac Arrest

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Active Control
Group I: After ArmActive Control1 Intervention
The after arm of the study the prehospital providers will provide resuscitation as per standard practice. The real-time ventilation dashboard will be activated and the providers will use real-time feedback to monitor ventilation quality during the resuscitation.
Group II: Before ArmActive Control1 Intervention
The before arm of the study prehospital providers will provide resuscitation as per standard practice. The providers will utilize the Zoll Accuvent device without activation of the real-time dashboard. This will allow us to collect baseline ventilation data.
