RESUMO
The International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation engages in a continuous review of new, peer-reviewed, published cardiopulmonary resuscitation and first aid science. Draft Consensus on Science With Treatment Recommendations are posted online throughout the year, and this annual summary provides more concise versions of the final Consensus on Science With Treatment Recommendations from all task forces for the year. Topics addressed by systematic reviews this year include resuscitation of cardiac arrest from drowning, extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation for adults and children, calcium during cardiac arrest, double sequential defibrillation, neuroprognostication after cardiac arrest for adults and children, maintaining normal temperature after preterm birth, heart rate monitoring methods for diagnostics in neonates, detection of exhaled carbon dioxide in neonates, family presence during resuscitation of adults, and a stepwise approach to resuscitation skills training. Members from 6 International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation task forces have assessed, discussed, and debated the quality of the evidence, using Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation criteria, and their statements include consensus treatment recommendations. Insights into the deliberations of the task forces are provided in the Justification and Evidence-to-Decision Framework Highlights sections. In addition, the task forces list priority knowledge gaps for further research. Additional topics are addressed with scoping reviews and evidence updates.

OBJECTIVE: To assess whether initial epinephrine administration by endotracheal tube (ET) in newly born infants receiving chest compressions and epinephrine in the delivery room (DR) is associated with lower rates of return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) than newborns receiving initial intravenous (IV) epinephrine. STUDY DESIGN: We conducted a retrospective review of neonates receiving chest compressions and epinephrine in the DR from the AHA Get With The Guidelines-Resuscitation registry from October 2013 through July 2020. Neonates were classified according to initial route of epinephrine (ET vs IV). The primary outcome of interest was ROSC in the DR. RESULTS: In total, 408 infants met inclusion criteria; of these, 281 (68.9%) received initial ET epinephrine and 127 (31.1%) received initial IV epinephrine. The initial ET epinephrine group included those infants who also received subsequent IV epinephrine when ET epinephrine failed to achieve ROSC. Comparing initial ET with initial IV epinephrine, ROSC was achieved in 70.1% vs 58.3% (adjusted risk difference 10.02; 95% CI 0.05-19.99). ROSC was achieved in 58.3% with IV epinephrine alone, and 47.0% with ET epinephrine alone, with 40.0% receiving subsequent IV epinephrine. CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that initial use of ET epinephrine is reasonable during DR resuscitation, as there were greater rates of ROSC compared with initial IV epinephrine administration. However, administration of IV epinephrine should not be delayed in those infants not responding to initial ET epinephrine, as almost one-half of infants who received initial ET epinephrine subsequently received IV epinephrine before achieving ROSC.

OBJECTIVE: To identify delivery room (DR) characteristics of patients with transposition of the great arteries (TGA) who underwent preoperative balloon atrial septostomy (BAS). STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study of all patients with prenatally diagnosed TGA delivered at our center between 2013 and 2023 who underwent arterial switch operation during the newborn admission. RESULTS: A total of 168 patients were included (median gestational age 39.5 weeks, 64% male, 33% with ventricular septal defect, 8% with aortic arch hypoplasia). BAS was performed in 84 patients (50%). Patients who underwent BAS had higher proportion of intubation in the DR (87% vs 33%, P < .001), lower maximum oxygen saturation in the first 10 minutes (64% vs 74%, P < .001) and 20 minutes (71% vs 81%, P < .001) of life, and lower maximum oxygen saturation at any point in the DR (79% vs 87%, P < .001). Adjusting for confounders (ventricular septal defect, aortic arch anomaly, 5-minute Apgar, birth weight), intubation in the DR (aOR 9.5, 95% CI 3.9, 25.0) and lower maximum oxygen saturation in the DR (aOR 0.9, 95% CI 0.8, 0.9) were independently associated with BAS. By receiver operating characteristic analysis, a maximum oxygen saturation of less than 86% at any time point in the DR discriminated for BAS with a specificity of 0.88, sensitivity of 0.70, and area under the curve of 0.82. CONCLUSIONS: Intubation and lower oxygen saturation in the DR are independently associated with BAS in patients with TGA born at our center. A maximum DR saturation of less than 86% best discriminates patients who undergo BAS in our population.
RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: Delivery room (DR) interventions for infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) are not well described. This study sought to describe timing and order of DR interventions and identify system factors impacting CDH DR resuscitations using a human factors framework. METHODS: Single center observational study of video recorded CDH DR resuscitations documenting timing and order of interventions. The team used the Systems Engineering Initiative for Patient Safety (SEIPS) model to identify system factors impacting DR resuscitations and time to invasive ventilation. RESULTS: We analyzed 31 video recorded CDH resuscitations. We observed variability in timing and order of resuscitation tasks. The 'Internal Environment' and 'Tasks' components of the SEIPS model were prominent factors affecting resuscitation efficiency; significant room and bed spatial constraints exist, and nurses have a significant task burden. Additionally, endotracheal tube preparation was a prominent barrier to timely invasive ventilation. CONCLUSION: Video review revealed variation in event timing and order during CDH resuscitations. Standardization of room set-up, equipment, and event order and reallocation of tasks facilitate more efficient intubation and ventilation, representing targets for CDH DR improvement initiatives. This work emphasizes the utility of rigorous human factors review to identify areas for improvement during DR resuscitation.
RESUMO
The International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation initiated a continuous review of new, peer-reviewed published cardiopulmonary resuscitation science. This is the fifth annual summary of the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation International Consensus on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care Science With Treatment Recommendations; a more comprehensive review was done in 2020. This latest summary addresses the most recently published resuscitation evidence reviewed by International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation task force science experts. Topics covered by systematic reviews in this summary include resuscitation topics of video-based dispatch systems; head-up cardiopulmonary resuscitation; early coronary angiography after return of spontaneous circulation; cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the prone patient; cord management at birth for preterm and term infants; devices for administering positive-pressure ventilation at birth; family presence during neonatal resuscitation; self-directed, digitally based basic life support education and training in adults and children; coronavirus disease 2019 infection risk to rescuers from patients in cardiac arrest; and first aid topics, including cooling with water for thermal burns, oral rehydration for exertional dehydration, pediatric tourniquet use, and methods of tick removal. Members from 6 International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation task forces have assessed, discussed, and debated the quality of the evidence, according to the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation criteria, and their statements include consensus treatment recommendations or good practice statements. Insights into the deliberations of the task forces are provided in Justification and Evidence-to-Decision Framework Highlights sections. In addition, the task forces listed priority knowledge gaps for further research.

AIM: The aim of this study was to assess the resuscitators' opinions of the usefulness and clinical value of using a respiratory function monitor (RFM) when resuscitating extremely preterm infants with positive pressure ventilation. METHODS: The link to an online survey was sent to 106 resuscitators from six countries who were involved in a multicentre trial that compared the percentage of inflations within a predefined target range with and without the RFM. The resuscitators were asked to assess the usefulness and clinical value of the RFM. The survey was online for 4 months after the trial ended in May 2019. RESULTS: The survey was completed by 74 (70%) resuscitators of which 99% considered the RFM to be helpful during neonatal resuscitation and 92% indicated that it influenced their decision-making. The majority (76%) indicated that using the RFM improved their practice and made resuscitation more effective, even when the RFM was not available. Inadequate training was the key issue that limited the effectiveness of the RFM: 45% felt insufficiently trained, and 78% felt more training in using and interpreting the RFM would have been beneficial. CONCLUSION: Resuscitators considered the RFM to be helpful to guide neonatal resuscitation, but sufficient training was required to achieve the maximum benefit.

OBJECTIVE: To characterize respiratory function monitor (RFM) measurements of sustained inflations and intermittent positive pressure ventilation (IPPV) delivered noninvasively to infants in the Sustained Aeration of Infant Lungs (SAIL) trial and to compare vital sign measurements between treatment arms. STUDY DESIGN: We analyzed RFM data from SAIL participants at 5 trial sites. We assessed tidal volumes, rates of airway obstruction, and mask leak among infants allocated to sustained inflations and IPPV, and we compared pulse rate and oxygen saturation measurements between treatment groups. RESULTS: Among 70 SAIL participants (36 sustained inflations, 34 IPPV) with RFM measurements, 40 (57%) were spontaneously breathing prior to the randomized intervention. The median expiratory tidal volume of sustained inflations administered was 5.3 mL/kg (IQR 1.1-9.2). Significant mask leak occurred in 15% and airway obstruction occurred during 17% of sustained inflations. Among 34 control infants, the median expiratory tidal volume of IPPV inflations was 4.3 mL/kg (IQR 1.3-6.6). Mask leak was present in 3%, and airway obstruction was present in 17% of IPPV inflations. There were no significant differences in pulse rate or oxygen saturation measurements between groups at any point during resuscitation. CONCLUSION: Expiratory tidal volumes of sustained inflations and IPPV inflations administered in the SAIL trial were highly variable in both treatment arms. Vital sign values were similar between groups throughout resuscitation. Sustained inflation as operationalized in the SAIL trial was not superior to IPPV to promote lung aeration after birth in this study subgroup. TRIAL REGISTRATION: Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT02139800.

OBJECTIVE: To compare in-hospital outcomes after umbilical cord milking vs delayed cord clamping among infants <29 weeks of gestation. STUDY DESIGN: Multicenter retrospective study of infants born <29 weeks of gestation from 2016 to 2018 without congenital anomalies who received active treatment at delivery and were exposed to umbilical cord milking or delayed cord clamping. The primary outcome was mortality or severe (grade III or IV) intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) by 36 weeks of postmenstrual age (PMA). Secondary outcomes assessed at 36 weeks of PMA were mortality, severe IVH, any IVH or mortality, and a composite of mortality or major morbidity. Outcomes were assessed using multivariable regression, incorporating mortality risk factors identified a priori, confounders, and center. A prespecified, exploratory analysis evaluated severe IVH in 2 gestational age strata, 22-246/7 and 25-286/7 weeks. RESULTS: Among 1834 infants, 23.6% were exposed to umbilical cord milking and 76.4% to delayed cord clamping. The primary outcome, mortality or severe IVH, occurred in 21.1% of infants: 28.3% exposed to umbilical cord milking and 19.1% exposed to delayed cord clamping, with an aOR that was similar between groups (aOR 1.45, 95% CI 0.93, 2.26). Infants exposed to umbilical cord milking had higher odds of severe IVH (19.8% umbilical cord milking vs 11.8% delayed cord clamping, aOR 1.70 95% CI 1.20, 2.43), as did the 25-286/7 week stratum (14.8% umbilical cord milking vs 7.4% delayed cord clamping, aOR 1.89 95% CI 1.22, 2.95). Other secondary outcomes were similar between groups. CONCLUSIONS: This analysis of extremely preterm infants suggests that delayed cord clamping is the preferred practice for placental transfusion, as umbilical cord milking exposure was associated with an increase in the adverse outcome of severe IVH.

Most preterm infants breathe at birth, but need additional respiratory support due to immaturity of the lung and respiratory control mechanisms. To avoid lung injury, the focus of respiratory support has shifted from invasive towards non-invasive ventilation. However, applying effective non-invasive ventilation is difficult due to mask leak and airway obstruction. The larynx has been overlooked as one of the causes for obstruction, preventing face mask ventilation from inflating the lung. The larynx remains mostly closed at birth, only opening briefly during a spontaneous breath. Stimulating and supporting spontaneous breathing could enhance the success of non-invasive ventilation by ensuring that the larynx remains open. Maintaining adequate spontaneous breathing and thereby reducing the need for invasive ventilation is not only important directly after birth, but also in the first hours after admission to the NICU. Respiratory distress syndrome is an important cause of respiratory failure. Traditionally, treatment of RDS required intubation and mechanical ventilation to administer exogenous surfactant. However, new ways have been implemented to administer surfactant and preserve spontaneous breathing while maintaining non-invasive support. In this narrative review we aim to describe interventions focused on stimulation and maintenance of spontaneous breathing of preterm infants in the first hours after birth.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to examine the association between team stress level and adverse tracheal intubation (TI)-associated events during neonatal intubations. STUDY DESIGN: TIs from 10 academic neonatal intensive care units were analyzed. Team stress level was rated immediately after TI using a 7-point Likert scale (1 = high stress). Associations among team stress, adverse TI-associated events, and TI characteristics were evaluated. RESULT: In this study, 208 of 2,009 TIs (10%) had high stress levels (score < 4). Oxygenation failure, hemodynamic instability, and family presence were associated with high stress level. Video laryngoscopy and premedication were associated with lower stress levels. High stress level TIs were associated with adverse TI-associated event rates (31 vs. 16%, p < 0.001), which remained significant after adjusting for potential confounders including patient, provider, and practice factors associated with high stress (odds ratio: 1.90, 96% confidence interval: 1.36-2.67, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: High team stress levels during TI were more frequently reported among TIs with adverse events.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the impact of policy changes for pulse oximetry oxygen saturation (SpO2) alarm limits on neonatal mortality and morbidity among infants born very preterm. STUDY DESIGN: This was a retrospective cohort study of infants born very preterm in the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development Neonatal Research Network. Infants were classified based on treatment at a hospital with an SpO2 alarm policy change and study epoch (before vs after policy change). We used a generalized linear mixed model to determine the effect of hospital group and epoch on the primary outcomes of mortality and severe retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and secondary outcomes of necrotizing enterocolitis, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, and any ROP. RESULTS: There were 3809 infants in 10 hospitals with an SpO2 alarm policy change and 3685 infants in 9 hospitals without a policy change. The nature of most policy changes was to narrow the SpO2 alarm settings. Mortality was lower in hospitals without a policy change (aOR 0.63; 95% CI 0.50-0.80) but did not differ between epochs in policy change hospitals. The odds of bronchopulmonary dysplasia were greater for hospitals with a policy change (aOR 1.65; 95% CI 1.36-2.00) but did not differ for hospitals without a policy change. Severe ROP and necrotizing enterocolitis did not differ between epochs for either group. The adjusted odds of any ROP were lower in recent years in both hospital groups. CONCLUSIONS: Changing SpO2 alarm policies was not associated with reduced mortality or increased severe ROP among infants born very preterm.

Importance: Preterm infants must establish regular respirations at delivery. Sustained inflations may establish lung volume faster than short inflations. Objective: To determine whether a ventilation strategy including sustained inflations, compared with standard intermittent positive pressure ventilation, reduces bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) or death at 36 weeks' postmenstrual age without harm in extremely preterm infants. Design, Setting, and Participants: Unmasked, randomized clinical trial (August 2014 to September 2017, with follow-up to February 15, 2018) conducted in 18 neonatal intensive care units in 9 countries. Preterm infants 23 to 26 weeks' gestational age requiring resuscitation with inadequate respiratory effort or bradycardia were enrolled. Planned enrollment was 600 infants. The trial was stopped after enrolling 426 infants, following a prespecified review of adverse outcomes. Interventions: The experimental intervention was up to 2 sustained inflations at maximal peak pressure of 25 cm H2O for 15 seconds using a T-piece and mask (n = 215); standard resuscitation was intermittent positive pressure ventilation (n = 211). Main Outcome and Measures: The primary outcome was the rate of BPD or death at 36 weeks' postmenstrual age. There were 27 prespecified secondary efficacy outcomes and 7 safety outcomes, including death at less than 48 hours. Results: Among 460 infants randomized (mean [SD] gestational age, 25.30 [0.97] weeks; 50.2% female), 426 infants (92.6%) completed the trial. In the sustained inflation group, 137 infants (63.7%) died or survived with BPD vs 125 infants (59.2%) in the standard resuscitation group (adjusted risk difference [aRD], 4.7% [95% CI, -3.8% to 13.1%]; P = .29). Death at less than 48 hours of age occurred in 16 infants (7.4%) in the sustained inflation group vs 3 infants (1.4%) in the standard resuscitation group (aRD, 5.6% [95% CI, 2.1% to 9.1%]; P = .002). Blinded adjudication detected an imbalance of rates of early death possibly attributable to resuscitation (sustained inflation: 11/16; standard resuscitation: 1/3). Of 27 secondary efficacy outcomes assessed by 36 weeks' postmenstrual age, 26 showed no significant difference between groups. Conclusions and Relevance: Among extremely preterm infants requiring resuscitation at birth, a ventilation strategy involving 2 sustained inflations, compared with standard intermittent positive pressure ventilation, did not reduce the risk of BPD or death at 36 weeks' postmenstrual age. These findings do not support the use of ventilation with sustained inflations among extremely preterm infants, although early termination of the trial limits definitive conclusions. Trial Registration: clinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT02139800.

OBJECTIVE: To characterize the epidemiology of Car Seat Tolerance Screening (CSTS) failure and the association between test failure and all-cause 30-day postdischarge mortality or hospital readmission in a large, multicenter cohort of preterm infants receiving neonatal intensive care. STUDY DESIGN: This retrospective cohort study used the prospectively collected Optum Neonatal Database. Study infants were born at <37 weeks of gestation between 2010 and 2016. We identified independent predictors of CSTS failure and calculated the risk-adjusted odds of all-cause 30-day mortality or hospital readmission associated with test failure. RESULTS: Of 7899 infants cared for in 788 hospitals, 334 (4.2%) failed initial CSTS. Greater postmenstrual age at testing and African American race were independently associated with decreased failure risk. Any treatment with an antacid medication, concurrent use of caffeine or supplemental oxygen, and a history of failing a trial off respiratory support were associated with increased failure risk. The mean adjusted post-CSTS duration of hospitalization was 3.1 days longer (95% CI, 2.7-3.6) among the infants who failed the initial screening. Rates of 30-day all-cause mortality or readmission were higher among infants who failed the CSTS (2.4% vs 1.0%; P = .03); however, the difference was not significant after confounder adjustment (OR, 0.38; 95% CI, 0.11-1.31). CONCLUSION: CSTS failure was associated with longer post-test hospitalization but no difference in the risk-adjusted odds for 30-day mortality or hospital readmission. Whether CSTS failure unnecessarily prolongs hospitalization or results in appropriate care that prevents adverse postdischarge outcomes is unknown. Further research is needed to address this knowledge gap.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the respiratory effort of very preterm infants receiving positive pressure ventilation (PPV) with infants breathing on continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), directly after birth. STUDY DESIGN: Recorded resuscitations of very preterm infants receiving PPV or CPAP after birth were analyzed retrospectively. The respiratory effort (minute volume and recruitment breaths [>8 mL/kg], heart rate, oxygen saturation, and oxygen requirement were analyzed for the first 2 minutes and in the fifth minute after birth. RESULTS: Respiratory effort was analyzed in 118 infants, 87 infants receiving PPV and 31 infants receiving CPAP (median gestational age, 28 weeks [IQR, 26-29] vs 29 weeks [IQR, 29-30; P < .001); birth weight, 1059 g [IQR, 795-1300] vs 1205 g [IQR, 956-1418; P = .06]). The minute volume of spontaneous breaths of infants receiving PPV was lower at 2 minutes (37 mL/kg/minute [IQR, 15-69] vs 188 mL/kg/minute [IQR, 128-297; P < .001]) and at 5 minutes (112 mL/kg/minute [IQR, 46-229] vs 205 mL/kg/minute [IQR, 174-327; P < .001]). Recruitment breaths occurred less in the PPV group at 2 minutes (0 breaths/minute [IQR, 0-1] vs 4 breaths/minute [IQR, 1-8; P < .001]) and 5 minutes (0 breaths/minute [IQR, 0-3] vs 2 breaths/minute [IQR, 0-11; P = .01). The heart rate was lower in the PPV group (94 beats/minute [IQR, 68-128] vs 124 beats/minute [IQR, 100-144; P = .02]) as was oxygen saturation (50% [IQR, 35%-66%] vs 67% [IQR, 34%-80%; P = .04]), but not different at 5 minutes (heart rate, 149 beats/minute [IQR, 131-162] vs 150 beats/minute [IQR, 132-160; P = NS]; oxygen saturation , 91% [IQR, 80%-95%] vs 92% [IQR, 89%-97%; P = NS]). The oxygen requirement was higher (at 2 minutes, 30% [IQR, 21%-53%] vs 21% [IQR, 21%-29%; P = .05]; at 5 minutes, 39% [IQR, 22%-91%] vs 22% [IQR, 21%-31%; P = .003]). CONCLUSION: Very preterm infants breathe at birth when receiving PPV, but the respiratory effort was significantly lower when compared with infants receiving CPAP only. The reduced breathing effort observed likely justified applying PPV in most infants.

Objective Bacterial colonization of the airway may contribute to the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia. Whether airway colonization increases risk for later adverse respiratory outcomes is less clear. We described tracheal aspirate culture results obtained from preterm infants receiving mechanical ventilation at 36 weeks postmenstrual age (PMA) and evaluated the association between bacteria type and the risk for prolonged supplemental oxygen use. Study Design We conducted a retrospective, single-center cohort study comparing infants (1) with and without a tracheal aspirate culture that grew a Gram-negative rod (GNR) and (2) with and without a culture that grew a Gram-positive cocci (GPC). Results Among 121 infants, 65 (53.7%) and 51 (42.2%) had a tracheal aspirate culture that grew a potentially pathogenic GNR and GPC prior to 36 weeks PMA, respectively. GNR were associated with increased risk for death or use of supplemental oxygen at discharge (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 6.2; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.8-21.1), and use of supplemental oxygen at discharge among survivors (aOR, 5.5; 95% CI, 1.6-19.0). GPC did not affect the risk for any study outcomes. Conclusion GNR but not GPC in the airways of preterm infants receiving mechanical ventilation at 36 weeks PMA is associated with increased risk for prolonged supplemental oxygen use.
