Early double-defibrillation in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest
After reaching 40 included patients in April of ’25, the pilot is officially complete!
We will announce more info regarding the main study shortly!
News
40 patients – pilot closed!
We are so happy to announce that we have reached 40 inclusions which means the pilot study is complete! A warm thank you to all
Gott nytt år, halvvägs i piloten!
Vi går in i studiens andra kalenderår med det fantastiska resultatet att vi nu är halvvägs i studien med antalet inkluderade patienter. Riktigt bra insatser
Trial info
Increasing survival
Double-D is a project investigating the effect of early double defibrillation, performed by paramedics, in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest with ventricular fibrillation as compared to standard treatment.
The purpose of this project is to investigate whether early double defibrillation (i.e., before three failed standard defibrillations) in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest with ventricular fibrillation could increase survival when compared to standard defibrillation.
As a first step, this Swedish pilot study was designed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of early DSD.
