What is the ROC?

The Resuscitation Outcomes Consortium (ROC) is a North American clinical trial network focusing on research in the area of pre-hospital cardiopulmonary arrest and severe traumatic injury.

ROC consists of 10 Regional Clinical Centers across North America and a Data and Coordinating Center providing the necessary infrastructure to:

  • conduct multiple collaborative trials
  • aid rapid translation of promising scientific and clinical advances
  • improve resuscitation outcomes.

Trials may evaluate existing or new therapies as well as clinical management strategies such as:

  • new resuscitative fluids
  • novel hemorrhage control strategies
  • the use of cerebral protection and neurologic preservation
  • metabolically directed therapies
  • and alternative methods of delivering CPR or defibrillation.
