Brief Summary

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

A cardiac arrest event has severe impact on the patient´s health-related quality of life. Survival of cardiac arrest does not innately translate to favorable quality of life. In particular, highly invasive resuscitation strategies, including extracorporeal cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) due to therapy-refractory cardiac arrest, may have impact on long-term outcomes. Therefore, apart from acute medical treatment and physical rehabilitation, long-term effects on cardio-pulmonary, physical and neuro-psychiatric functions after cardiac arrest survival have to be evaluated and optimized. We plan to investigate a bundle of cardio-pulmonary, physical and neuro-psychiatric functions in patients who survived a therapy-refratory cardiac arrest with ECPR.
