Official title
Therapeutic Hypothermia After Pediatric Cardiac Arrest (Out of Hospital)
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Cardiac arrest is a sudden, unexpected loss of heart function. Therapeutic hypothermia, in which the body's temperature is lowered and maintained several degrees below normal for a period of time, has been used to successfully treat adults who have experienced cardiac arrest. This study will evaluate the efficacy of therapeutic hypothermia at increasing survival rates and reducing the risk of brain injury in infants and children who experience a cardiac arrest while out of the hospital.
