Coronary and Cerebral Perfusion Optimization in Cardiac Arrest: A Feasibility and Physiological Study

Our general objective, during this study, is to evaluate the feasibility and potential physiological benefits of using REBOA (resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta) CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) for patients presenting with a cardiac arrest to a community hospital. This would represent the first step for doing a larger, randomized clinical trial on the use of REBOA in non-traumatic cardiac arrest.
