SURV1VE Trial Summary

This trial will compare CC+SI to 3:1 compression to ventilation (C:V) in newborns requiring CPR. The goal is to see if CC+SI improves return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC).

Eligible Conditions
  • Slow Heart Rate
  • Cardiac Arrest
  • Neonatal Asphyxia

SURV1VE Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Intervention (CC+SI)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Infants randomized into the "CC+SI group" will receive a SI with a PIP of 25-30 cmH2O while receiving chest compression. The SI will be delivered over a period of 45 seconds. This will be followed by PEEP of 5-8 cm water to perform an assessment of the newborn's heart rate. If heart rate is >60/min continue with standard care as per local hospital policy (standard hospital practice guideline). If heart rate remains <60/min continue with CC+SI for another 45sec at which time a further assessment should be performed. If heart rate remains <60/min continue with CC+SI.
Group II: Control (3:1 C:V)Active Control1 Intervention
Infants randomized into the "3:1 C:V group" will receive CC at a rate of 90/min and 30 ventilations/min in a 3:1 C:V ratio as recommended by the current resuscitation guidelines.
