In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Less than 10% of patients eliciting out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) survive, although 30% can be resuscitated by Emergency services before admission in Intensive Care Units (ICU). The majority succumb to Post-Cardiac Arrest Syndrome (PCAS). PCAS is associated with high mortality (60-70%) and morbidity. One proposed method of preventing the neurological and cardiac consequences of PCAS is to lower the body temperature to 33°C as quickly as possible. This approach is known as therapeutic hypothermia or Targeted Temperature Management (TTM). The Vent2Cool system, developed by Orixha, is a novel approach that enables the rapid induction of therapeutic hypothermia by using hypothermic Total Liquid Ventilation (TLV) to reach a protective temperature of 33°C within minutes. The OverCool feasibility study, which started in April 2025, is designed to validate the clinical performance and
