NEURESCUE Device as an Adjunct to In-Hospital Cardiac Arrest (ARISE)

The NEURESCUE device is the first intelligent catheter for aortic balloon occlusion, an emergency technique that supercharges blood flow to the heart and brain within one minute from deployment.

The catheter-based device is delivered via the femoral artery, temporarily inflating a soft balloon in the descending aorta to redirect blood flow towards the upper body.

The objective of this study is to investigate the feasibility of the NEURESCUE device as an adjunct to Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) in adults with cardiac arrest.

Treatment and study plan

NEURESCUE device

Device

The balloon catheter is delivered via the femoral artery, temporarily inflating a soft balloon in the descending aorta to redirect blood flow towards the upper body.

Primary outcomes

  1. Successful balloon inflation within 10 minutes from first vessel puncture

    Time frame: Assessed up to 10 min

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change in central blood pressure

    Time frame: Assessed up to 1 hour

  2. Total ACLS time at initiation of the investigational procedure

    Time frame: Assessed up to 1 hour

  3. Time from first vessel puncture to successful sheath insertion

    Time frame: Assessed up to 1 hour

  4. Rate of occlusion success

    Time frame: Assessed up to 1 hour

  5. Return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC)

    Time frame: Assessed up to 1 hour

    The endpoint is dichotomous (yes/no) for each subject
