Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a prospective observational study at St. Olavs hospital in Norway. Data are gathered from defibrillators that have been in use during resuscitation from cardiac arrest. Aim is to investigate the changes in electrocardiograms (ECG) during resuscitation from pulseless electrical activity (PEA), which is a type of cardiac arrest. ECG changes may be useful as a prognostic marker during resuscitation from PEA. In addition the researchers will describe the effect of adrenaline and chest compressions on clinical state transitions during resuscitation from pulseless electrical activity. Clinical state transitions are changes between different types of cardiac arrest. This study is expected to increase our understanding of the dynamics during treatment of cardiac arrest.

Patients with primary PEA.

Patients at St. Olavs hospital who suffer cardiac arrest and pulseless electrical activity (PEA) as primary rhythm during 2018-2021. 120 episodes from St. Olavs hospital were collected previously (2010-2013). In addition 200 cases will be available from the hospital of The University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, USA.
