Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
- The TTM2 main trial includes adult, unconscious patients with sustained return of
spontaneous circulation after cardiac arrest of a presumed cardiac origin. The aim is
to include 100-150 OHCA-survivors to the sub-study.
Minimum age
18 Years
Maximum age
80 Years
Sex
Both males and females
Can healthy volunteers participate?
Key exclusion criteria
- An exclusion criterion for the TTM2 main trial is an unwitnessed cardiac arrest with
initial rhythm asystole, temperature at admission <30°C, on extracorporeal membrane
oxygenation (ECMO) prior to return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), obvious or
suspected pregnancy, intracranial bleeding and/or severe chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease (COPD) on home oxygen.

An additional exclusion criterion for the sub-study is the inability to speak the local
language well enough to complete the test without an interpreter. Patients with major
cognitive impairment, patients sitting in a wheel chair, Clinical Frailty Score 8 or 9
(very severely frail or terminally ill), active drug abuse and when a face-to face
follow-up is not possible will also be excluded.

Summary
Brief summary
The Target Temperature Management trial 2 (TTM2) is an international multi-center study, that
randomize patients with OHCA of a presumed cardiac or unknown cause to target temperature
management at 33°C or normothermia but avoiding fever (37.8°C) for the first 24 hours after
the OHCA. The TTM2 study (clinicaltrials.gov Identifier NCT02908308) includes a detailed
follow-up of functional outcome, health-related quality of life and neurocognitive function
at 6 and 24 months post-arrest. This protocol describes a sub-study within the TTM2 trial
that specifically focus on physical activity among the OHCA survivors.
