Clinical Trial: Pulse Detection in Cardiac Arrest Patients Using a Doppler Ultrasound Patch on the Carotid Artery

U.S., July 28 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07729228) titled 'Pulse Detection in Cardiac Arrest Patients Using a Doppler Ultrasound Patch on the Carotid Artery' on July 20.

Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to find out if a Doppler ultrasound patch placed on the neck can accurately and quickly detect when a cardiac arrest patient's heart starts beating again (return of spontaneous circulation, or ROSC) during resuscitation in the emergency department. The study compares the ultrasound readings to data from an arterial line, which is considered the most reliable way to check for a pulse. The main question the study is trying to answer is whether using Doppler ultrasound is better than...
