Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study investigates the efficacy of landiolol versus placebo in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and refractory ventricular fibrillation (electrical storm).

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 1/Phase 2

Detailed Description

The use of beta-blockers in OHCA patients with refractory VF could potentially reverse the unwanted beta-1-mediated effects of endogenous and exogenous epinephrine (proarrhythmic effect), which could in turn lead to a shorter time until return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC).

This is a prospective, double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled pilot trial. The investigators consider this a pilot trial, as this is the first prospective trial evaluating the use of beta-blockade in cardiac arrest.

      number of shocks until sROSC per included patients

    3. rate of temporary ROSC (any ROSC) [Time of sROSC or termination of resuscitation efforts]

      number of temporary ROSC per included patients

    4. survival to ICU admission [Time of ICU admission or termination of resuscitation efforts]

      how many patients survived to ICU admission

    5. mean/median length of stay in ICU [Time of transfer to open ward or death]

      in days

    6. mean/median length of hospital stay [Time of hospital discharge or death]

      in days

    7. survival until hospital admission [Time of hospital admission or death]

      how many patients were admitted alive to the hospital

    8. survival until hospital discharge [Time of hospital discharge or death]

    9. favorable neurologic outcome at hospital discharge, day 28, month 3, 6, 12 (CPC and mRS) [at hospital discharge, day 28, month 3, 6, 12]

      measured by CPC and mRS

    10. survival at hospital discharge, day 28, month 3, 6, 12 [at hospital discharge, day 28, month 3, 6, 12]

      how many patients survived to day 28, month 3, 6, 12
