This study is tracking how emergency medical services are using a FDA-approved Head Up CPR device — a positioning tool that elevates your head and chest during CPR — combined with other resuscitation techniques. Researchers want to understand how this device is being used in real emergency situations and what outcomes patients have when they receive it as part of their cardiac arrest care.
Since the Head Up CPR device became available in 2019, more and more emergency medical teams have started using it during cardiac arrests. This registry exists to monitor whether this new combination of treatments is actually helping patients survive and recover better.

You won't need to do anything — this is an observational registry study. Emergency medical teams participating in the study will use the Head Up CPR device and related resuscitation techniques as part of their standard emergency protocol. Your de-identified medical information (data without your name or identifying details) will be collected and securely stored to help researchers understand how the device is working across different emergency medical systems.
