Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Active Control
Group I: Medical armActive Control1 Intervention
Initial therapy does not include cardiac catheterization. Cardiac catheterization with possible PCI is allowed after completion of mild therapeutic hypothermia or apyrexia for >24h post ROSC.
Group II: Early cardiac catheterizationActive Control1 Intervention
Cardiac catheterization performed as early as possible, within 12h post ROSC following OHCA, with possible PCI during mild therapeutic hypothermia or apyrexia
