The Impact of Integration of Ultrasound on CPR Quality - A Video Review Study
An observational study of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation, run by National Taiwan University Hospital at 2 sites in Taiwan.
Trial summary
High-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is essential for return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) in patients with cardiac arrest. However, some factors are known to be related with delays in chest compressions such as bed transfer, setting of CPR device, pulse and rhythm checks. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: The Impact of Integration of Ultrasound on CPR Quality - A Video Review
High-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is essential for return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) in patients with cardiac arrest. However, some factors are known to be related with delays in chest compressions such as bed transfer, setting of CPR device, pulse and rhythm checks. This study aims to evaluate the potential impact of ultrasound on CPR quality by using retrospective video analysis.
All CPR scenarios in our department were recorded and masked for the purpose of video analysis. The investigators will record in-scene resuscitation manpower, the factors to interrupt chest compressions and whether introducing ultrasound into resuscitation process is related with delays in chest compressions. In addition, the investigators collect the patient's sex, age, initial rhythm and prognosis, including ROSC, survival to admission and survival to discharge.

Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 2 sites in Taiwan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Ultrasound use would not delay in chest compressions during resuscitation. (time frame: 60 minutes). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
