Purpose

The purpose of this study is to determine whether performing active compression decompression cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ACD-CPR) with an impedance threshold device (ITD) or using an ITD with conventional CPR will impact the neurologic recovery and survival to hospital discharge following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.

Despite receiving conventional, standard cardiopulmonary resuscitation (S-CPR), most patients who experience out-of-hospital cardiac arrest die prior to arriving at a hospital. At the present time, the hospital discharge rate following out-of-hospital, non-traumatic cardiac arrest in adults in the United States is estimated to be <5%. Many factors contribute to the currently poor survival statistics, including the inefficiency of the technique itself. CPR provides only 10% to 20% of normal myocardial perfusion, and only 20% to 30% of physiologically normal cerebral perfusion.

A new method of CPR that combines active compression decompression (ACD-CPR) and an impedance threshold device (ITD) (ACD-CPR+ITD), has been shown in animal models and in clinical trials conducted in Europe to provide significantly more blood flow to the vital organs and to improve survival rates when compared to S-CPR or ACD-CPR alone.

ACD-CPR+ITD works by decreasing intrathoracic pressure during the chest wall recoil (or decompression) phase of CPR, creating a vacuum within the thorax relative to the rest of the body. When compared with controls, use of ACD-CPR+ITD: a) enhances blood return to the thorax during the chest wall recoil phase, b) enhances blood flow to the heart and brain, c) provides real-time feedback to rescuers to maintain high quality CPR, d) improves overall CPR efficiency and, as a result of the forgoing, e) improves short-term survival rates.

The sponsor and others recently evaluated the effectiveness of the combination of conventional, manual standard CPR±ITD in animals and humans. The ITD increased short-term survival rates in these studies as well. Two clinical trials were performed in Milwaukee, Wisconsin under IDE (#G980125). Both compared S-CPR with either a sham (non-functional or placebo) or active (functional) ITD. The results from the hemodynamic study demonstrated that systolic blood pressure, the primary endpoint, increased from approximately 45 mmHg with the sham ITD to approximately 85 mmHg with the active ITD (P<0.05). Intensive care unit admission rate was the primary endpoint of the clinical outcome study.

Comparisons: The objective of this 3-arm, multi-site, randomized, pivotal IDE clinical trial is to compare survival to hospital discharge with neurologic recovery rates in subjects receiving S-CPR, ACD-CPR+ITD, and S-CPR+ITD following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in well-established American emergency medical services systems.
