BackgroundDespite limited recommendations for using sodium bicarbonate (SB) during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), we hypothesized that SB continues to be used frequently during pediatric in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) and that its use varies by hospital-specific, patient-specific, and event-specific characteristics.MethodsWe analyzed 3719 pediatric (<18 years) index pulseless CPR events from the American Heart Association Get With The Guidelines-Resuscitation database from 1/2000 to 9/2010.ResultsSB was used in 2536 (68%) of 3719 CPR events. Incidence of SB use between 2000 and 2005 vs. 2006 and 2010 was 71.1% vs. 66.2% (P = 0.002). The primary outcome was survival to discharge. Secondary outcomes included 24-h survival and neurologic outcome. Multivariable logistic regression analyzed the association between SB use and outcomes. SB had increased use an ICU location, metabolic/electrolyte disturbance, prolonged CPR, pVT/VF, and concurrently with other pharmacologic interventions. Adjusting for confounding factors, SB use was associated with decreased 24-h survival (aOR 0.83, 95% CI: 0.69, 0.99) and decreased survival to discharge (aOR 0.80; 95% CI: 0.65, 0.97). Inclusion of metabolic/electrolyte abnormalities, hyperkalemia, and toxicologic abnormalities only (n = 674), SB use was not associated with worse outcomes or unfavorable neurologic outcome.ConclusionsSB is used frequently during pediatric pulseless IHCA, yet there is a significant trend toward less routine use over the last decade. Because SB is more likely to be used in an ICU, with prolonged CPR, and concurrently with other pharmacologic interventions; its use during CPR may be associated with poor prognosis due to an association with “last ditch” efforts of resuscitation rather than causation. 相似文献

AimTo define the racial differences present after PEA and asystolic IHCA and explore factors that could contribute to this disparity.MethodsWe analyzed PEA and asystolic IHCA in the Get-With-The-Guidelines-Resuscitation database. Multilevel conditional fixed effects logistic regression models were used to estimate the relationship between race and survival to discharge and return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), sequentially controlling for hospital, patient demographics, comorbidities, arrest characteristic, process measures, and interventions in place at time of arrest.ResultsAmong the 561 hospitals, there were 76,835 patients who experienced IHCA with an initial rhythm of PEA or asystole (74.8% white, 25.2% black). Unadjusted ROSC rate was 55.1% for white patients and 54.1% for black patients (unadjusted OR: 0.94 [95% CI, 0.90–0.98], p = 0.016). Survival to discharge was 12.8% for white patients and 10.4% for black patients (unadjusted OR: 0.83 [95% CI, 0.78–0.87], p < 0.001). After adjusting for temporal trends, patient characteristics, hospital, and arrest characteristics, there remained a difference in survival to discharge (OR: 0.85 [95% CI, 0.79–0.92]) and rate of ROSC (OR: 0.88 [95% CI, 0.84–0.92]). Black patients had a worse mental status at discharge after survival. Rates of DNAR placed after survival from were lower in black patients with a rate of 38.3% compared to 44.5% in white patients (p < 0.001).ConclusionBlack patients are less likely to experience ROSC and survival to discharge after PEA or asystole IHCA. Individual patient characteristics, event characteristics, and hospital characteristics don’t fully explain this disparity. It is possible that disease burden and end-of-life preferences contribute to the racial disparity. 相似文献

BackgroundPatient outcome after out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) depends on the cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) performance and might also be influenced by organisation of the emergency medical service (EMS) and implementation of guidelines.AimTo assess the rate of return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after cardiac arrest to the predicted rate by the ROSC after cardiac arrest (RACA) score over a 15-year period reflecting three different implemented ALS-guidelines in a physician-staffed EMS.MethodsAll adult patients with non-traumatic OHCA in the EMS of Bonn from 1996 to 2011 were included. Utstein data from three 5-years time periods (1996–2001, 2001–2006, 2006–2011) representing different ALS-guideline implementations were collected. Group comparisons were made in terms of incidence, epidemiology and short-term outcome of CPR with emphasis on changes over time and factors of importance. In each group observed ROSC rate were compared to the predicted ROSC rates (the RACA score).ResultsCPR by the ALS unit was attempted in a total of 1989 patients (735, 666, and 588 patients in the first, second and third period, respectively). Average crude incidence of CPR per 100,000 person-years decreased over time (61.3; 55.5; 49.0/100,000/years) while patients treated were significantly older (65.5 ± 16.5; 67.9 ± 15; 68.9 ± 15.7 (p < 0.001)). Observed ROSC rates were higher than predicted by the RACA score in all time periods, however, admittance to ICU decreased significantly from 50% in the first five-year period to 38% last five-year period (p < 0.001). From first to third period the proportion of arrests with first observed rhythm of VT/VF arrests did not change (29% vs. 27%, p = 0.323) nor there were changes in bystander CPR rates (17% vs. 17%, p = 0.520).ConclusionsIn a 15-years period and in the setting of a physician-staffed EMS the ROSC rates remain higher than predicted by the RACA score but the admittance to the ICU after OHCA declined significantly. This finding was accompanied by a decrease in CPR incidence and an increase in age of patients. 相似文献

Background Patients with in-hospital cardiopulmonary arrest (IHCA) precipitated by respiratory insufficiency often exhibit bradycardia before the arrest. We hypothesized that bradycardia frequently occurs in the 10 min preceding IHCA and is associated with poor outcomes when IHCA occurs outside the intensive care unit (ICU).ObjectivesTo determine the prevalence and association of antecedent bradycardia with outcome in adult patients with IHCA occurring outside the ICU.Methods We performed a retrospective cohort study among telemetry monitored adults with IHCA outside the ICU in a two-hospital health system between 2008 and 2010 with follow-up until their discharge or death in-hospital.We defined (1) IHCA as >1 min of chest compressions or trans-thoracic defibrillation, (2) Antecedent bradycardia as at least 2 min of continuous heart rate between 1 and 59 beats per minute in the 10 min preceding IHCA, and (3) ventricular tachyarrhythmia arrests as presence of sustained ventricular tachyarrhythmia for >20 s in the 10 min preceding IHCA.ResultsOf 98 IHCAs, 39 (39.8%) survived to hospital discharge. Of 98 IHCAs, 53 (54.1%) had antecedent bradycardia. After adjusting for potential confounders, antecedent bradycardia was associated with death prior to hospital discharge (adjusted OR = 3.80, 95%CI: 1.47–9.81, p = 0.006). Among patients with ventricular tachyarrhythmia arrests, antecedent bradycardia was associated with a higher risk of death (OR = 13.1, 95%CI 1.92–89.5, p = 0.009).ConclusionsAntecedent bradycardia occurred frequently and was associated with death prior to hospital discharge in non-ICU hospitalized adults on telemetry monitoring who developed IHCA. 相似文献

IntroductionThis retrospective study was conducted to evaluate injuries related to cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and their associated factors using postmortem computed tomography (PMCT) and whole body CT after successful resuscitation.MethodsThe inclusion criteria were adult, non-traumatic, out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients who were transported to our emergency room between April 1, 2008 and March 31, 2013. Following CPR, PMCT was performed in patients who died without return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). Similarly, CT scans were performed in patients who were successfully resuscitated within 72 h after ROSC. The injuries associated with CPR were analysed retrospectively on CT images.ResultsDuring the study period, 309 patients who suffered out-of hospital cardiac arrest were transported to our emergency room and received CPR; 223 were enrolled in the study.The CT images showed that 156 patients (70.0%) had rib fractures, and 18 patients (8.1%) had sternal fractures. Rib fractures were associated with older age (78.0 years vs. 66.0 years, p < 0.01), longer duration of CPR (41 min vs. 33 min, p < 0.01), and lower rate of ROSC (26.3% vs. 55.3%, p < 0.01). All sternal fractures occurred with rib fractures and were associated with a greater number of rib fractures, higher age, and a lower rate of ROSC than rib fractures only cases. Bilateral pneumothorax was observed in two patients with rib fractures.ConclusionsPMCT is useful for evaluating complications related to chest compression. Further investigations with PMCT are needed to reduce complications and improve the quality of CPR. 相似文献

AimInvestigate the relationship of initial PetCO2 values of patients during inpatient pulseless electrical activity (PEA) cardiopulmonary arrest with return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and survival to discharge.MethodsThis study was performed in two urban, academic inpatient hospitals. Patients were enrolled from July 2009 to July 2013. A comprehensive database of all inpatient resuscitative events is maintained at these institutions, including demographic, clinical, and outcomes data. Arrests are stratified by primary etiology of arrest using a priori criteria. Inpatients with PEA arrest for whom recorded PetCO2 was available were included in the analysis. Capnography data obtained after ROSC and/or more than 10 min after initiation of CPR were excluded. Multivariable logistic regression was used to explore the association between initial PetCO2 >20 mmHg and both ROSC and survival-to-discharge.ResultsA total of 50 patients with PEA arrest and pre-ROSC capnography were analyzed. CPR continued an average of 11.8 min after initial PetCO2 was recorded confirming absence of ROSC at time of measurement. Initial PetCO2 was higher in patients with versus without eventual ROSC (25.3 ± 14.4 mmHg versus 13.4 ± 6.9 mmHg, P = 0.003). After adjusting for age, gender, and arrest location (ICU versus non-ICU), initial PetCO2 >20 mmHg was associated with increased likelihood of ROSC (adjusted OR 4.8, 95% CI 1.2–19.2, P = 0.028). Initial PetCO2 was not significantly associated with survival-to-discharge (P = 0.251).ConclusionsInitial PetCO2 >20 mmHg during CPR was associated with ROSC but not survival-to-discharge among inpatient PEA arrest victims. This analysis is limited by relatively small sample size. 相似文献

ObjectiveThe early partial pressures of arterial O2 (PaO2) and CO2 (PaCO2) have been found in animal studies to be correlated with neurological outcome after brain injury. However, the relationship of early PaO2 and PaCO2 to the neurological outcomes of resuscitated patients after cardiac arrest was still not clear.MethodsThis was a retrospective observational cohort study in a single medical center. Adult patients who had in-hospital cardiac arrest between 2006 and 2012 and achieved sustained return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) (ROSC > 20 min without resumption of chest compression) were included. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors associated with favorable neurological outcome at hospital discharge. The first PaO2 and PaCO2 values measured after first sustained ROSC were used for analysis.ResultsOf the 550 included patients, 154 (28%) survived to hospital discharge and 74 (13.5%) achieved favorable neurological outcome. The mean time from sustained ROSC to the measurement of PaO2 and PaCO2 was 136.8 min. The mean PaO2 and PaCO2 were 167.4 mmHg and 40.3 mmHg, respectively. PaO2 between 70 and 240 mmHg (odds ratio [OR] 1.96, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.08–3.64) and PaCO2 levels (OR 0.98, 95% CI 0.95–0.99) were positively and inversely associated with favorable neurological outcome, respectively.ConclusionsThe early PaO2 and PaCO2 levels obtained after ROSC might be correlated with neurological outcome of patients with in-hospital cardiac arrest. However, because of the inherent limitations of the retrospective design, these results should be further validated in future studies. 相似文献

AimThe prediction of return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) during resuscitation of patients suffering of cardiac arrest (CA) is particularly challenging. Regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) monitoring through near-infrared spectrometry is feasible during CA and could provide guidance during resuscitation.MethodsWe conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis on the value of rSO2 in predicting ROSC both after in-hospital (IH) or out-of-hospital (OH) CA. Our search included MEDLINE (PubMed) and EMBASE, from inception until April 4th, 2015. We included studies reporting values of rSO2 at the beginning of and/or during resuscitation, according to the achievement of ROSC.ResultsA total of nine studies with 315 patients (119 achieving ROSC, 37.7%) were included in the meta-analysis. The majority of those patients had an OHCA (n = 225, 71.5%; IHCA: n = 90, 28.5%). There was a significant association between higher values of rSO2 and ROSC, both in the overall calculation (standardized mean difference, SMD –1.03; 95%CI –1.39,–0.67; p < 0.001), and in the subgroups analyses (rSO2 at the beginning of resuscitation: SMD –0.79; 95%CI –1.29,–0.30; p = 0.002; averaged rSO2 value during resuscitation: SMD –1.28; 95%CI –1.74,–0.83; p < 0.001).ConclusionsHigher initial and average regional cerebral oxygen saturation values are both associated with greater chances of achieving ROSC in patients suffering of CA. A note of caution should be made in interpreting these results due to the small number of patients and the heterogeneity in study design: larger studies are needed to clinically validate cut-offs for guiding cardiopulmonary resuscitation. 相似文献

ObjectivesThere may be a survival benefit in female patients experiencing cardiac arrest, which could affect the interpretation of in vivo animal studies. We hypothesized that sex predicts return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and short-term survival (SURV) in porcine studies of prolonged ventricular fibrillation (VF).MethodsRetrospective analysis of eight comparable experiments performed in our lab using mixed-breed domestic swine of either sex. All experiments included prolonged untreated VF, CPR, defibrillation, and drugs. We defined ROSC as systolic blood pressure ≥80 mmHg for ≥1 min. Short-term survival was defined 20 or 60 min, depending on protocol. Categorical variables were compared with chi-square test and Fisher's exact test. Continuous variables were compared with two-sample t-test and one-way ANOVA. Multiple logistic regression determined predictors of ROSC and SURV, utilizing cluster analysis by experimental protocol. Candidate variables were sex, weight, anesthesia duration, VF duration, and CPR ratio.ResultsOf 263 swine analyzed (53.2% male), 58.6% of males and 68.3% of females had ROSC (p = 0.10), whereas 50.0% of males and 61.0% of females experienced SURV (p = 0.07).ResultsOf 263 swine analyzed (53.2% male), 58.6% of males and 68.3% of females had ROSC (p = 0.10), whereas 50.0% of males and 61.0% of females experienced SURV (p = 0.07). Neither sex nor any identified candidate variable predicted ROSC or SURV. Both models had acceptable fit with Hosmer–Lemeshow values of 0.35 and 0.31, respectively.ConclusionsSex predicts neither ROSC nor SURV in a swine model of prolonged VF. 相似文献

BackgroundRecent scientific evidence has demonstrated the importance of good quality chest compressions without interruption to improve cardiac arrest resuscitation rates, and suggested that a de-emphasis on minute ventilation is needed. However, independent of ventilation, the role of oxygen and the optimal oxygen concentration during CPR is not known. Previous studies have shown that ventilation with high oxygen concentration after CPR is associated with worse neurologic outcome. We tested the hypothesis that initial ventilation during CPR without oxygen improves resuscitation success.MethodsSprague–Dawley rats were anesthetized with ketamine/xylazine (IP), intubated and ventilated with room air. A KCl bolus (0.04 mg/g) was given (IV) to induce asystolic cardiac arrest and ventilation was stopped. At 6 min, CPR was started with an automated chest compressor at a rate of 200–240/min and epinephrine (0.01 mg/kg) was given 1 min later. During CPR, the ventilation rate was 50% of baseline with one of three oxygen concentrations: (1) 0% O2 (100% N2), (2) 21% O2, or (3) 100% O2. The prescribed oxygen concentration was continued for 2 min after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and then all animals were switched to 100% oxygen for 1 h prior to extubation. Blood gases were measured at baseline, 2 min and 1 h after ROSC. Group comparisons were done using Fisher's exact test and ANOVA.ResultsROSC was achieved in 1/10 (0% O2), 9/11 (21% O2) and 10/12 (100% O2, p < 0.001). ROSC times after starting CPR were 80 s in the 0% O2, 115 ± 87 s in the 21% O2 group and 95 ± 33 s in the 100% O2 group (mean ± SD, p = 0.5). Aortic end-diastolic pressure before ROSC was not different among groups. 100% oxygen ventilation in the first 2 min resulted in higher PaO2 at ROSC 2 min (109 ± 44 mm Hg vs. 33 ± 8 mm Hg, p < 0.001). Survival to 72 h was 0/1 (0% O2), 7/9 (21% O2) and 8/10 (100% O2) with a low neurologic deficit score in both O2 groups (NDS range 5–25).ConclusionsIn a mild cardiac arrest model with generally good neurologic recovery, initial CPR ventilation with no O2 did not allow for ROSC. In contrast, CPR coupled with room air or higher oxygen levels result in a high rate of ROSC with good neurologic recovery. During CPR, the level of oxygenation must be considered, which if too low may preclude initial ROSC. 相似文献

AimLow survival rate was previously described after cardiac arrest in cancer patients and may challenge the appropriateness of intensive care unit (ICU) admission after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). Objectives of this study were to report outcome and characteristics of cancer patients admitted to the ICU after cardiac arrest.MethodsA retrospective chart review in seven medical ICUs in France, in 2002–2012. We studied consecutive patients with malignancies admitted after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) or in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA).ResultsOf 133 included patients of whom 61% had solid tumors, 48 (36%) experienced OHCA and 85 (64%) IHCA. Cardiac arrest was related to the malignancy or its treatment in 47% of patients. Therapeutic hypothermia was used in 51 (41%) patients. The ICU mortality rate was 98/133 (74%). Main causes of ICU death were refractory shock or multiple organ failure (n = 64, 48%) and neurological injury (n = 27, 20%); 42 (32%) patients died in ICU after treatment-limitation decisions. Twenty-four (18%) patients were discharged alive from the hospital. Overall 6-month survival rate was 14% (18/133, 95% confidence interval, 8–21%). Survival rates at ICU discharge and after 6 months did not differ significantly across type of malignancy or between the OHCA and IHCA groups, and neither were they significantly different from those in matched controls who had cardiac arrest but no malignancy.ConclusionsEven if low, the 6-month survival rate of 14% observed in cancer patients admitted to the ICU after cardiac arrest and ROSC may support the admission of these patients to the ICU and may warrant an initial full-code ICU management. 相似文献

Background and methodsDo emergency teams (ETs) consider the underlying causes of in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) during advanced life support (ALS)? In a 4.5-year prospective observational study, an aetiology study group examined 302 episodes of IHCA. The purpose was to investigate the causes and cause-related survival and to evaluate whether these causes were recognised by the ETs.ResultsIn 258 (85%) episodes, the cause of IHCA was reliably determined. The cause was correctly recognised by the ET in 198 of 302 episodes (66%). In the majority of episodes, cardiac causes (156, 60%) or hypoxic causes (51, 20%) were present. The cause-related survival was 30% for cardiac aetiology and 37% for hypoxic aetiology.The initial cardiac rhythm was pulseless electrical activity (PEA) in 144 episodes (48%) followed by asystole in 70 episodes (23%) and combined ventricular fibrillation/ventricular tachycardia (VF/VT) in 83 episodes (27%). Seventy-one patients (25%) survived to hospital discharge. The median delay to cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) was 1 min (inter-quartile range 0–1 min).ConclusionsVarious cardiac and hypoxic aetiologies dominated. In two-thirds of IHCA episodes, the underlying cause was correctly identified by the ET, i.e. according to the findings of the aetiology study group. 相似文献

AimRefractory ventricular fibrillation, resistant to conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), is a life threatening rhythm encountered in the emergency department. Although previous reports suggest the use of extracorporeal CPR can improve the clinical outcomes in patients with prolonged cardiac arrest, the effectiveness of this novel strategy for refractory ventricular fibrillation is not known. We aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of patients with refractory ventricular fibrillation managed with conventional CPR or extracorporeal CPR in our institution.MethodThis is a retrospective chart review study from an emergency department in a tertiary referral medical center. We identified 209 patients presenting with cardiac arrest due to ventricular fibrillation between September 2011 and September 2013. Of these, 60 patients were enrolled with ventricular fibrillation refractory to resuscitation for more than 10 min. The clinical outcome of patients with ventricular fibrillation received either conventional CPR, including defibrillation, chest compression, and resuscitative medication (C-CPR, n = 40) or CPR plus extracorporeal CPR (E-CPR, n = 20) were compared.ResultsThe overall survival rate was 35%, and 18.3% of patients were discharged with good neurological function. The mean duration of CPR was longer in the E-CPR group than in the C-CPR group (69.90 ± 49.6 min vs 34.3 ± 17.7 min, p = 0.0001). Patients receiving E-CPR had significantly higher rates of sustained return of spontaneous circulation (95.0% vs 47.5%, p = 0.0009), and good neurological function at discharge (40.0% vs 7.5%, p = 0.0067). The survival rate in the E-CPR group was higher (50% vs 27.5%, p = 0.1512) at discharge and (50% vs 20%, p = 0. 0998) at 1 year after discharge.ConclusionsThe management of refractory ventricular fibrillation in the emergency department remains challenging, as evidenced by an overall survival rate of 35% in this study. Patients with refractory ventricular fibrillation receiving E-CPR had a trend toward higher survival rates and significantly improved neurological outcomes than those receiving C-CPR. 相似文献

BackgroundThe presence of physicians is believed to facilitate optimal management of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, but has not been sufficiently documented.MethodsAdult non-traumatic cardiac arrests treated by Oslo EMS between May 2003 and April 2008 were prospectively registered. Patients were categorized according to being treated by the physician-manned ambulance (PMA) or by regular paramedic-manned ambulances (non-PMA). Patient records and continuous electrocardiograms (ECGs) with impedance signals were reviewed. Quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and clinical outcomes were compared.ResultsResuscitation was attempted in 1128 cardiac arrests, of which 151 treated by non-PMA and PMA together were excluded from comparative analysis. Of the remaining 977 patients, 232 (24%) and 741 (76%) were treated by PMA and non-PMA, respectively. The PMA group was more likely to have bystander witnessed arrests and initial VF/VT, and received better CPR quality with shorter hands-off intervals and pre-shock pauses, and having a greater proportion of patients being intubated. Despite uneven distribution of positive prognostic factors and better CPR quality, short-term and long-term survival were not different for patients treated by the PMA vs. non-PMA, with 34% vs. 33% (p = 0.74) achieving return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), 28% vs. 25% (p = 0.50) being admitted to ICU and 13% vs. 11% (p = 0.28) being discharged from hospital, respectively.ConclusionsSurvival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest was not different for patients treated by the PMA and non-PMA in our EMS system. 相似文献

Aim
We investigated whether DA-CPR would have the same effect as spontaneously-delivered bystander CPR.Methods
A total of 37,899 witnessed cardiogenic out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) selected from a nationwide Utstein-Japanese database between 2008 and 2012. Patients were divided into four groups as follows: CPR initiated with dispatcher assistance (DA-CPR; n = 10,424), no CPR provided with dispatcher assistance (DA-No CPR; n = 4658), spontaneously-delivered bystander CPR provided without DA (BCPR; n = 6630), and both BCPR and dispatcher assistance was not provided (No BCPR-No DA; n = 16,187). The primary endpoint was rate of shockable rhythm on the initial ECG, return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) on the field. A multivariable logistic regression analysis was used. Adjusted odds ratios (AOR) are presented as 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) among the groups.Results
The rate of DA-CPR implementation has gradually increased since 2005. In comparison with DA-No CPR, both spontaneously-delivered BCPR and DA-CPR were significantly associated with the following factors: increased rate of shockable rhythm on the initial ECG (AOR, 1.75 and 1.72; 95% CI, 1.67 to 1.85 and 1.63 to 1.83),improved field ROSC (AOR, 1.42 and 1.40; 95% CI, 1.33 to 1.52 and 1.30 to 1.51) and 1-month favorable neurological outcomes (AOR, 1.72 and 1.80; 95% CI, 1.59 to 1.88 and 1.64 to 1.97), respectively.Conclusions
We found that the spontaneously delivered BCPR group showed favorable results. In comparison to the DA-No BCPR group, DA-CPR group resulted in the nearly equivalent effect as spontaneously-delivered BCPR group. Further standard dispatcher education is indicated. 相似文献17.

ObjectivesWe analysed the relationship between serum levels of lactate within 1 h of return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and survival and neurological outcomes in patients who underwent therapeutic hypothermia (TH).MethodsThis was a multi-centre retrospective and observational study that examined data from the first Korean Hypothermia Network (KORHN) registry from 2007 to 2012. The inclusion criteria were out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and examination of serum levels of lactate within 1 h after ROSC, taken from KORHN registry data. The primary endpoint was survival outcome at hospital discharge, and the secondary endpoint was poor neurological outcome (Cerebral Performance Category, CPC, 3–5) at hospital discharge. Initial lactate levels and other variables collected within 1 h of ROSC were analysed via multivariable logistic regression.ResultsData from 930 cardiac arrest patients who underwent TH were collected from the KORHN registry. In a total of 443 patients, serum levels of lactate were examined within 1 h of ROSC. In-hospital mortality was 289/443 (65.24%), and 347/443 (78.33%) of the patients had CPCs of 3–5 upon hospital discharge. The odds ratios of lactate levels for CPC and in-hospital mortality were 1.072 (95% confidence interval (CI) 1.026–1.121) and 1.087 (95% CI = 1.031–1.147), respectively, based on multivariate ordinal logistic regression analyses.ConclusionHigh levels of lactate in serum measured within 1 h of ROSC are associated with hospital mortality and high CPC scores in cardiac arrest patients treated with TH. 相似文献

Study backgroundPrevious studies focused on the outcome of avalanche victims with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) after long duration of burial (>35 min); the outcome of victims with short duration (≤35 min) remains obscure.Aim of the studyTo investigate outcome of avalanche victims with OHCA.MethodsRetrospective analysis of avalanche victims with OHCA between 2008 and 2013 in the Tyrolean Alps.Results55 avalanche victims were identified, 32 of whom were declared dead after extrication without cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), all with long duration of burial. In the remaining 23 CPR was initiated at scene; three were partially and 20 completely buried, nine of whom suffered short and 11 long duration of burial. All nine victims with short duration of burial underwent restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) at scene, four of them after bystander CPR, five after advanced life support by the emergency physician. Two patients with ROSC after short duration of burial and bystander CPR survived to hospital discharge with cerebral performance category 1. None of the 11 victims with long duration of burial survived to hospital discharge, although six were transported to hospital with ongoing CPR and three were supported with extracorporeal circulation.ConclusionsIn this case series survival with favourable neurological outcome was observed in avalanche victims with short duration of burial only if bystander CPR was immediately performed and ROSC achieved. Strategies for reducing avalanche mortality should focus on prompt extrication from the snow and immediate bystander CPR by uninjured companions. 相似文献

AimIn a prior study of seven North American cities Pittsburgh had the highest crude rate of cardiac arrest deaths in patients 18 to 64 years of age, particularly in neighborhoods with lower socioeconomic status (SES). We hypothesized that lower SES, associated poor health behaviors (e.g., illicit drug use) and pre-existing comorbid conditions (grouped as socioeconomic factors [SE factors]) could affect the type and severity of cardiac arrest, thus outcomes.MethodsWe retrospectively identified patients aged 18 to 64 years treated for in-hospital (IHCA) and out-of hospital arrest (OHCA) at two Pittsburgh hospitals between January 2010 and July 2012. We abstracted data on baseline demographics and arrest characteristics like place of residence, insurance and employment status. Favorable cerebral performance category [CPC] (1 or 2) was our primary outcome. We examined the associations between SE factors, cardiac arrest variables and outcome as well as post-resuscitation care.ResultsAmong 415 subjects who met inclusion criteria, unfavorable CPC were more common in patients who were unemployed, had a history of drug abuse or hypertension. In OHCA, favorable CPC was more often associated with presentation with ventricular fibrillation/tachycardia (OR 3.53, 95% CI 1.43–8.74, p = 0.006) and less often associated with non-cardiovascular arrest etiology (OR 0.22, 95% CI 0.08–0.62, p = 0.004). We found strong associations between specific SE factors and arrest factors associated with outcome in OHCA patients only. Significant differences in post-resuscitation care existed based on injury severity, not on SES.ConclusionsSE factors strongly influence type and severity of OHCA but not IHCA resulting in an association with outcomes. 相似文献
