Following the recent article published the on B.M.J. “Parachute use to prevent death and major trauma related to gravitational challenge: systematic review of randomised controlled trials“ and its conclusions “We were unable to identify any randomized controlled trials of parachute intervention” so “the effectiveness of parachutes has not been subjected to rigorous evaluation by using randomised controlled trials”,
MEDEST proposes the first ever randomized controlled double blind trial on:
Parachute use to prevent death and major trauma in gravitational accidents.
-
Study design: Double blinded, randomized controlled trial
-
Randomization: the enrolled participants (also called “precipitants”) will all precipitated from a 800 meters height. They will be blindly randomized in two groups:
-
Precipitants with parachute
-
Precipitants without parachute (control group)
The precipitants and the investigators will be both blinded for humanitarian reasons.
-
Major end-points: surviving rate at 5, 10, 30 minutes from the impact.
Enrolled starts as soon as resolved some minor ethical issues.
