The primary goals of the trial are:~To show a survival increase at hospital admittance after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest of patients treated by continuous chest compressions LUCAS device compared with patients treated by manual chest compressions.~To evaluate neurological outcome on hospital discharge, in two centres (Vall d'Hebron Hospital and Josep Trueta Hospital).
The goal of this study is to show the superiority in survival at hospital admittance and in neurological outcome on hospital discharge of continuous mechanical chest compression using LUCAS device versus manual chest compressions in patients who suffered an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
