Emergency Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta in Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest

概要

This study will assess the feasibility of performing pre-hospital resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) as an adjunct to conventional Advanced Life Support (ALS) in patients suffering from non-traumatic out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). As well as providing valuable insights into the technical feasibility of performing this procedure as part of a resuscitation attempt, the study will also document the beneficial physiological effects of REBOA in this group of patients.
