About the research
This retrospective data repository will serve as a means to aggregate and analyze order of pre-hospital care (intubation, medication, etc) as it relates to Traumatic cardiac arrest.
Read the full description
The primary objective of this study is to establish a data repository that will be permissive of quality improvement studies/observations specific to patients with Traumatic cardiac arrest and evaluate impact of sequence of pre-hospital care in survival outcomes.
Who may be able to participate?
The list below is the sponsor’s full registry wording. It can include conditions, prior treatment, test results and other requirements. A match in search does not mean you qualify.
Inclusion Criteria:
≥18 years old Included in the MDMC Trauma Registry Cardiac arrest in pre-hospital setting or trauma bay
Exclusion Criteria:
\<18 years old Prisoners, pregnant persons, or other protected population
Study population
patients with traumatic cardiac arrest(TCA) have poor chances at survival despite rapid trauma activation responses. The traditional rescue sequence, focusing on airway, breathing, and circulation(ABC), has become standard of care for initial resuscitation for both trauma and non-trauma patients.
Understand screeningTreatment, groups and participation
The registry may describe treatments and study duration without a complete visit calendar. Ask the study team for the exact schedule, procedures, risks, costs and alternatives. Keep your usual care plan unless your treating clinician tells you otherwise.
