Research projects
RescueDoppler is an ultrasound device the size of a band-aid that is attached to the neck.
The device is first tested in animal models at Nord University and later on cardiac arrest patients in ambulances and hospitals.The Department of Circulation and Diagnostic Imaging at NTNU and the laboratory Anilab at Nord University participate in the project.
The Department of Circulation and Diagnostic Imaging at NTNU has studied blood flow using ultrasound in a number of clinical situations, constructed specialized ultrasound devices for clinical use, and studied the course of cardiac arrest and cardiopulmonary resuscitation in detail.
The project group consists of a PhD student, four professors, a specialist in anesthesia and an associate professor.
