Skeletal Muscle Mass on Prognosis and Recovery in Clinical Trial
Enrolling by invitation · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest, Inhospital Cardiac Arrest
In brief
The objective of this research project is to develop an automated muscle mass measurement system based on computed tomography (CT) images using deep learning and artificial intelligence, and to construct a prognostic prediction model for patients who have experienced cardiac arrest and undergone resuscitation. The model will be validated using multicenter registry data and medical imaging. Furthermore, a clinical trial involving core muscle rehabilitation for post-resuscitation patients will be conducted to evaluate both short-term and long-term outcomes, aiming to comprehensively understand the impact of muscle mass on the prognosis of patients after cardiac arrest.
