Cardiac arrest & resuscitation
The Danish Out‐of‐Hospital Cardiac Arrest Trial: A Statistical Analysis Plan
Study context
- Population
- Comatose adult out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients with presumed cardiac etiology and sustained ROSC, randomised within 180 min of ROSC
- Planned comparison
- Dexamethasone vs placebo, olanzapine vs placebo, backrest elevation 35° vs 5°, early (≤ 6 h) vs late (28-36 h) wakeup
- Primary endpoint
- 90-day all-cause mortality (dexamethasone and backrest interventions); days alive outside hospital within 30 days (olanzapine and early wakeup interventions)
Methodological detailsinvestigator-initiated, multicenter, 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 factorial, pharmacological interventions blinded, physiological interventions open-label, intention-to-treat, Analysis plan finalized prior to completion of randomization
