- Received at least one dose of adrenaline during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)
Exclusion Criteria:
- Clearly documented "do-not-resuscitate" order prior to the cardiac arrest

Study Plan
How is the study designed?
Design Details
- Primary Purpose: Treatment
- Allocation: Randomized
- Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
- Masking: Quadruple
Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Sodium bicarbonate
50 ml of 1 mmol/ml sodium bicarbonate given as soon as possible after the first dose of adrenaline.
If the patient remains in cardiac arrest, one additional dose of 50 ml of 1 mmol/ml sodium bicarbonate will be administered after the second dose of adrenaline dose for a maximum of two doses.
|
Sodium bicarbonate 1 mmol/ml
|
Placebo Comparator: Placebo
50 mL of 9 mg/mL NaCl ("normal saline") given as soon as possible after the first dose of adrenaline.
If the patient remains in cardiac arrest, one additional dose of 50 mL of 9 mg/mL NaCl will be administered after the second dose of adrenaline dose for a maximum of two doses.
|
Sodium chloride 9 mg/mL
|
What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Number of Participants With Return of Spontaneous Circulation
Time Frame: During the cardiac arrest, an average of 20 minutes
|
Return of spontaneous circulation is defined as spontaneous circulation with no further need for chest compressions sustained for at least 20 minutes
|
During the cardiac arrest, an average of 20 minutes
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Number of Participants That Survived 30 Days
Time Frame: At 30 days
|
At 30 days
|
|
Number of Participants With a Favorable Neurological Outcome at 30 Days
Time Frame: At 30 days
|
A favorable neurological outcome will be defined as a modified Rankin Scale score of 0, 1, 2 or 3.
The modified Rankin Scale is a 7-point scale assessing neurological/functional outcomes after brain damage with higher scores indicating worse neurological/functional outcomes.
|
At 30 days
|
Other Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Hospital Disposition
Time Frame: At hospital discharge, up to 1 year
|
Hospital disposition (e.g.
home, rehabilitation, nursing home, hospice) will be defined at the time of discharge from the initial acute care hospital.
|
At hospital discharge, up to 1 year
|
Survival
Time Frame: At 90 days, 180 days, and 1 year
|
At 90 days, 180 days, and 1 year
|
|
Health-related Quality of Life (EQ-5D-5L)
Time Frame: At 30 days, 90 days, 180 days, and 1 year
|
The EQ-5D-5L is a well-established measure of health-related quality of life that is quantified as a utility (i.e. a measure of quality of life between 0 and 1).
|
At 30 days, 90 days, 180 days, and 1 year
|
Favorable Neurological Outcome
Time Frame: At 90 days, 180 days, and 1 year
|
A favorable neurological outcome will be defined as a modified Rankin Scale score of 0, 1, 2 or 3.
The modified Rankin Scale is a 7-point scale assessing neurological/functional outcomes after brain damage with higher scores indicating worse neurological/functional outcomes.
|
At 90 days, 180 days, and 1 year
|
Cerebral performance category
Time Frame: At 30 days, 90 days, 180 days, and 1 year
|
The cerebral performance category score is a 5-point scale assessing neurological/functional outcomes after brain damage with higher scores indicating worse neurological/functional outcomes.
|
At 30 days, 90 days, 180 days, and 1 year
|
Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) Score
Time Frame: At 2, 24, 48 and 72 hours
|
The SOFA score is a validated and widely used measure of organ failure assessing the respiratory, nervous, cardiovascular, hepatic, coagulation, and renal systems.
We will assess both the cardiovascular sub score as well as the overall SOFA score.
|
At 2, 24, 48 and 72 hours

Plan for Individual participant data (IPD)
Plan to Share Individual Participant Data (IPD)?
IPD Plan Description
Six months after the publication of the last results, all de-identified individual patient data will be made available for data sharing. Procedures, including re-coding of key variables, will be put in place to allow for complete de-identification of the data. Data will be completely anonymized according to Danish law.
All relevant trial-related documents, including the protocol, data dictionary, and the main statistical code, will be shared along with the data. There will be no predetermined end date for the data sharing.
