Augmented Reality-Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Support for Pediatric Resuscitation (NCT07778823)

AR-CPR: Large-Scale Simulation-Based Testing of a Novel Augmented Reality Point of Care Chest Compression Feedback System

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic โš™๏ธ Medical Device Protocol Sponsor: Johns Hopkins University

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This study evaluates whether an augmented reality cardiopulmonary resuscitation feedback system (AR-CPR) can support health care providers in delivering high-quality chest compressions during pediatric cardiac arrest. AR-CPR provides real-time visual feedback on chest compression rate, depth, and recoil through a head-mounted augmented reality display. In this randomized, multicenter, international, simulation-based non-inferiority study, health care providers perform chest compressions during an 18-minute simulated pediatric cardiac arrest. Participants are assigned to receive either real-time feedback from AR-CPR or coaching from a trained human CPR coach. The primary objective is to determine whether the percentage of chest compressions meeting guideline targets for both rate and depth with AR-CPR is non-inferior to that achieved with human CPR coaching.
