Abstract:Serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) has been identified as an independent risk factor for predicting all-cause mortality in patients with multiple diseases. However, the prognostic value of LDH levels in post-cardiac arrest patients remains uncertain. This study aimed to assess the association between LDH and mortality in intensive care unit (ICU) patients after cardiac arrest. This retrospective observational study is based on data from the Dryad Digital Repository, which included 374 consecutive adult patients after cardiac arrest. Patients were divided into 2 groups based on median LDH values. A multivariate Cox proportional hazards model was established to assess the independent relationship between LDH and ICU mortality. Cumulative mortality was compared using Kaplan–Meier curves. The cohort included 374 patients, of which 51.9% (194/374) died in the ICU. The overall death rate from cardiac arrest was significantly higher for patients with LDH ≥ 335 IU/L (59.6%) than for those with LDH < 335 IU/L (44.1%). In multiple Cox regression models, hazard ratios (HR) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI) for logLDH and the 2 LDH groups were 1.72 (1.07, 2.78) and 1.42 (1.04, 1.93), respectively. Participants with LDH ≥ 335IU/L had a higher incidence of ICU mortality than LDH < 335 IU/L, as shown by the Kaplan–Meier curves (P = .0085). Subgroup analysis revealed that the association between LDH and ICU mortality was vitally stable, with all P interactions from different subgroups >.05. Serum LDH levels are positively associated with ICU mortality in patients after cardiac arrest, especially for patients with LDH ≥ 335 IU/L.
