ABSTRACT
The prognosis for patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) has been reported to be worse in the cold season. On the other hand, it is unclear whether a similar trend exists in OHCA patients who are treated with extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR). This study was a retrospective multicenter registry study. We examined the association between ECPR and season. We compared the prognosis in four seasonal groups according to the day of occurrence. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed for the assessment of clinical and neurological outcomes. A total of 2024 patients with OHCA who received ECRP were included. There were no significant differences in in-hospital mortality (p = 0.649) and in the rate of favorable neurological outcome (p = 0.144). In the multivariable logistic regression, the seasonal factor was not significantly associated with worse in-hospital mortality (p = 0.855) and favorable neurological outcomes (p = 0.807). In this study, there was no seasonal variation in OHCA patients with ECPR.
