What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a leading cause of death worldwide. Despite constantly improving resuscitation techniques, the chances of survival remain limited. During cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), a closure of the airway may occur, impeding ventilation. This phenomenon also complicates the interpretation of the end-tidal CO2 (ETCO2) in the capnogram. The extent to which airway closure occurs is quantified by the Airway Opening Index (AOI). This can be calculated from the capnogram and is seen as a measure of the quality of CPR applied as well as a possible indicator to predict the outcome of CPR. In this study, we analyse capnogram data from approximately 150 cases, collected during interventions for OHCA and logged in the Lazarus database (UZ Gent and AZORG) to answer three research questions below: 1. What is the prevalence of AOI during CPR? 2. Is there a correlat
