Brief Summary

The study is designed as a pilot, open-label study to investigate the feasibility and safety of selective cerebral hypothermia in OHCA patients receiving ECPR.

Detailed Description

Patients with OHCA and meeting the criteria for initiating extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) criteria will be checked for eligibility for the study during CPR by the emergency physicians or s...
