Single center randomized-controlled trial in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients. This study will investigate the feasibility and utility of the Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA) procedure using a REBOA catheter device in patients who have experienced an OHCA and have not regained return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC).
Victims arriving to, or experiencing witnessed Ventricular Fibrillation (VF) or Ventricular Tachycardia (VT) out of hospital cardiac arrest in, the UAB emergency department with greater than 10 minutes of conventional ACLS will be eligible. The study population will consist of forty (40) subjects randomized to either continued contemporary standard of care (ACLS), or ACLS plus the administration of a REBOA catheter device.
The aims of UPFRONT are:
