RESUMEN
Purpose: We evaluated associations between outcomes and time to achieving temperature targets during targeted temperature management of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Methods: Using Comprehensive Registry of Intensive Care for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest Survival (CRITICAL) study, we enrolled all patients transported to participating hospitals from 1 July 2012 through 31 December 2017 aged ≥ 18â¯years with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest of cardiac aetiology and who received targeted temperature management in Osaka, Japan. Primary outcome was Cerebral Performance Category scale of 1 or 2 one month after cardiac arrest, designated as "one-month favourable neurological outcome". Non-linear multivariable logistic regression analyses assessed the primary outcome based on time to reaching temperature targets. In patients subdivided into quintiles based on time to achieving temperature targets, multivariable logistic regression calculated adjusted odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals. Results: We analysed 473 patients. In non-linear multivariable logistic regression analysis, p value for non-linearity was < 0.01. In the first quintile (< 26.7 minutes), second quintile (26.8-89.9 minutes), third quintile (90.0-175.1 minutes), fourth quintile (175.2-352.1 minutes), and fifth quintile (≥ 352.2 minutes), one-month favourable neurological outcome was 32.6% (31/95), 40.0% (36/90), 53.5% (53/99), 57.4% (54/94), and 37.9% (36/95), respectively. Adjusted odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals for one-month favourable neurological outcome in the first, second, third, and fifth quintiles compared with the fourth quintile were 0.38 (0.20 to 0.72), 0.43 (0.23 to 0.81), 0.77 (0.41 to 1.44), and 0.46 (0.25 to 0.87), respectively. Conclusion: Non-linear multivariable logistic regression analysis could clearly describe the association between neurological outcome in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest and the time from the introduction of targeted temperature management to reaching the temperature targets.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) has been proposed as a rescue therapy for patients with refractory cardiac arrest. This study aimed to evaluate the association between ECPR and clinical outcomes among patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) using risk-set matching with a time-dependent propensity score. METHODS: This was a secondary analysis of the JAAM-OHCA registry data, a nationwide multicenter prospective study of patients with OHCA, from June 2014 and December 2019, that included adults (≥ 18 years) with OHCA. Initial cardiac rhythm was classified as shockable and non-shockable. Patients who received ECPR were sequentially matched with the control, within the same time (minutes) based on time-dependent propensity scores calculated from potential confounders. The odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals (CI) for 30-day survival and 30-day favorable neurological outcomes were estimated for ECPR cases using a conditional logistic model. RESULTS: Of 57,754 patients in the JAAM-OHCA registry, we selected 1826 patients with an initial shockable rhythm (treated with ECPR, n = 913 and control, n = 913) and a cohort of 740 patients with an initial non-shockable rhythm (treated with ECPR, n = 370 and control, n = 370). In these matched cohorts, the odds ratio for 30-day survival in the ECPR group was 1.76 [95%CI 1.38-2.25] for shockable rhythm and 5.37 [95%CI 2.53-11.43] for non-shockable rhythm, compared to controls. For favorable neurological outcomes, the odds ratio in the ECPR group was 1.11 [95%CI 0.82-1.49] for shockable rhythm and 4.25 [95%CI 1.43-12.63] for non-shockable rhythm, compared to controls. CONCLUSION: ECPR was associated with increased 30-day survival in patients with OHCA with initial shockable and even non-shockable rhythms. Further research is warranted to investigate the reproducibility of the results and who is the best candidate for ECPR.

BACKGROUND: The effectiveness of IABP for shockable out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) has not been extensively investigated. This study aimed to investigate whether the use of an intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) for non-traumatic shockable OHCA patients was associated with favorable neurological outcomes. METHODS: From the Japanese Association for Acute Medicine Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest registry, a nationwide multicenter prospective registry, we enrolled adult patients with non-traumatic and shockable OHCA for whom resuscitation was attempted, and who were transported to participating hospitals between 2014 and 2019. The primary outcome was 1-month survival with favorable neurological outcomes after OHCA. After adopting the propensity score (PS) inverse probability of weighting (IPW), we evaluated the association between IABP and favorable neurological outcomes. RESULTS: Of 57,754 patients in the database, we included a total of 2738 adult non-traumatic shockable patients. In the original cohort, the primary outcome was lower in the IABP group (OR with 95% confidence intervals (CIs)), 0.57 (0.48-0.68), whereas, in the IPW cohort, it was not different between patients with and without IABP (OR, 1.18; 95% CI, 0.91-1.53). CONCLUSION: In adult patients with non-traumatic shockable OHCA, IABP use was not associated with 1-month survival with favorable neurological outcomes.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Singapore and Osaka in Japan have comparable population sizes and prehospital management; however, the frequency of ECPR differs greatly for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients with initial shockable rhythm. Given this disparity, we hypothesized that the outcomes among the OHCA patients with initial shockable rhythm in Singapore were different from those in Osaka. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of OHCA patients with initial shockable rhythm in Singapore compared to the expected outcomes derived from Osaka data using machine learning-based prediction models. METHODS: This was a secondary analysis of two OHCA databases: the Singapore PAROS database (SG-PAROS) and the Osaka-CRITICAL database from Osaka, Japan. This study included adult (18-74 years) OHCA patients with initial shockable rhythm. A machine learning-based prediction model was derived and validated using data from the Osaka-CRITICAL database (derivation data 2012-2017, validation data 2018-2019), and applied to the SG-PAROS database (2010-2016 data), to predict the risk-adjusted probability of favorable neurological outcomes. The observed and expected outcomes were compared using the observed-expected ratio (OE ratio) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS: From the SG-PAROS database, 1,789 patients were included in the analysis. For OHCA patients who achieved return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) on hospital arrival, the observed favorable neurological outcome was at the same level as expected (OE ratio: 0.905 [95%CI: 0.784-1.036]). On the other hand, for those who had continued cardiac arrest on hospital arrival, the outcomes were lower than expected (shockable rhythm on hospital arrival, OE ratio: 0.369 [95%CI: 0.258-0.499], and nonshockable rhythm, OE ratio: 0.137 [95%CI: 0.065-0.235]). CONCLUSION: This observational study found that the outcomes for patients with initial shockable rhythm but who did not obtain ROSC on hospital arrival in Singapore were lower than expected from Osaka. We hypothesize this is mainly due to differences in the use of ECPR.

AIM: Life-threatening electrocardiographic (ECG) findings aid in the diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), which has not been well-evaluated in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic test accuracy (DTA) of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) equivalents following the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) in patients with OHCA to identify patients with ACS. METHODS: Using the database of the Comprehensive Registry of In-Hospital Intensive Care for OHCA Survival study from 2012 to 2017, patients aged ≥18 years with non-traumatic OHCA and ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia on the arrival of emergency medical service personnel or arrival at the emergency department, who achieved ROSC, were included. Patients without ST-segment elevation or complete left bundle branch block on ECG and those who did not undergo ECG or coronary angiography, were excluded from the study. We evaluated the DTA of STEMI equivalents for the diagnosis of ACS: isolated T-wave inversion, ST-segment depression, Wellens' signs, and ST-segment elevation in lead aVR. RESULTS: Isolated T-wave inversion and Wellens' signs had high specificity for ACS with 0.95 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.87-0.99) and 0.92 (95% CI, 0.82-0.97), respectively, but their positive likelihood ratios were low, with a wide range of 95% CI: 1.89 (95% CI, 0.51-7.02) and 0.81 (95% CI, 0.25-2.68), respectively. CONCLUSION: The DTA of STEMI equivalents for the diagnosis of ACS was low among patients with OHCA. Further investigation considering the measurement timing of the ECG after ROSC is required.

BACKGROUND: We aimed to investigate the association between blood urea nitrogen to creatinine ratio (BCR) and survival with favourable neurological outcomes in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). METHODS: This prospective, multicentre, observational study conducted in Osaka, Japan enrolled consecutive OHCA patients transported to 16 participating institutions from 2012 through 2019. We included adult patients with non-traumatic OHCA who achieved a return of spontaneous circulation and whose blood urea nitrogen and creatinine levels on hospital arrival were available. Based on BCR values, they were divided into: 'low BCR' (BCR <10), 'normal BCR' (10â¯≤â¯BCRâ¯<â¯20), 'high BCR' (20â¯≤â¯BCRâ¯<â¯30), and 'very high BCR' (BCRâ¯≥â¯30). We evaluated the association between BCR values and neurologically favourable outcomes, defined as cerebral performance category score of 1 or 2 at one month after OHCA. RESULTS: Among 4415 eligible patients, the 'normal BCR' group had the highest favourable neurological outcome [19.4â¯% (461/2372)], followed by 'high BCR' [12.5â¯% (141/1127)], 'low BCR' [11.2â¯% (50/445)], and 'very high BCR' groups [6.6â¯% (31/471)]. In the multivariable analysis, adjusted odds ratios for 'low BCR', 'high BCR', and 'very high BCR' compared with 'normal BCR' for favourable neurological outcomes were 0.58 [95â¯% confidence interval (CI 0.37-0.91)], 0.70 (95â¯% CI 0.49-0.99), and 0.40 (95â¯% CI 0.21-0.76), respectively. Cubic spline analysis indicated that the association between BCR and favourable neurological outcomes was non-linear (p for non-linearityâ¯=â¯0.003). In subgroup analysis, there was an interaction between the aetiology of arrest and BCR in neurological outcome (p for interaction <0.001); favourable neurological outcome of cardiogenic OHCA patients was lower when the BCR was higher or lower, but not in non-cardiogenic OHCA patients. CONCLUSIONS: Both higher and lower BCR were associated with poor neurological outcomes compared to normal BCR, especially in cardiogenic OHCA patients.

OBJECTIVE: Sex disparities in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) care processes have been reported. This study aimed to investigate the association between sex and prehospital advanced cardiac life support (ACLS) interventions provided by emergency medical services in Japan. METHODS: We analyzed data from January 1, 2013, to December 31, 2020, from the All-Japan Utstein Registry of patients with OHCA aged ≥18 years who were resuscitated by bystanders. The primary outcomes were prehospital ACLS interventions, including advanced airway management (AAM) and epinephrine administration. Sex-based disparities in receiving prehospital ACLS interventions were assessed via multivariable logistic regression analyses. RESULTS: Among 314,460 eligible patients, females with OHCA received fewer prehospital ACLS interventions than males: 83,571/187,834 (44.5%) males vs. 55,086/126,626 (43.5%) females (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 0.94, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.93-0.96) for AAM and 60,097/187,834 (32.0%) males vs. 35,501/126,626 (28.0%) females (AOR = 0.84, 95% CI = 0.83-0.85) for epinephrine administration. Similar results were also obtained in the subgroup analysis (groups included patients aged 18-74 years and ≥75 years and those with cardiac origin, ventricular fibrillation (VF), non-VF, non-family member witnessed, and family member witnessed). CONCLUSION: Compared with males, females were less likely to receive prehospital ACLS. Emergency medical service staff must be made aware of this disparity, and off-the-job training on intravenous cannulation or AAM replacement must be conducted. Investigation of the impact of sex disparity on OHCA care processes can facilitate planning of future public health policies to improve survival outcomes.

AIM: Estimating prognosis of patients treated with extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) is essential for selecting candidates. The TiPS65 score can predict neurological outcomes of patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) treated with ECPR. We aimed to perform an external validation of this score. METHODS: Data from the Japanese Association for Acute Medicine Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest registry, a multicentred, nationwide, prospectively registered database, were analysed. All adult patients with OHCA and shockable rhythm and treated with ECPR between January 2018 to December 2019 were included. In the TiPS65 score, age, call-to-hospital arrival time, initial cardiac rhythm at hospital arrival, and initial pH value were used as predictors. The primary outcome was 30-day survival with favourable neurological outcomes (Cerebral Performance Category 1 or 2). Discrimination, using the C-statistic, and predictive performances of each score, such as sensitivity and specificity, were investigated. RESULTS: Of 590 included patients (517 [81.6%] men; median [interquartile range] age, 60 [50-69] years), 64 (10.8%) reported favourable neurological outcomes. The C-statistic of the TiPS65 score was 0.729 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.672-0.786). When the cut-off of TiPS65 score was set to >1, the sensitivity and specificity were 0.906 (95%CI: 0.807-0.965) and 0.430 (95%CI: 0.387-0.473), respectively; conversely, when the cut-off was set to >3, they were 0.172 (95%CI: 0.089-0.287) and 0.971 (95%CI: 0.953-0.984), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The TiPS65 score shows reasonable discrimination and predictive performances. This score can be supportive in the decision-making process for the selection of eligible patients for ECPR in clinical settings.

Background: Research has described differences in the provision of prehospital treatment for women who experience out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. However, studies have reported conflicting results regarding survival outcomes or in-hospital interventions between sexes. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the association of sex with survival outcomes and in-hospital treatments in Japan. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data from the Japanese Association for Acute Medicine-Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest Registry. Patients aged ≥18 years who presented with a shockable rhythm at the scene between June 2014 and December 2020 were included in our analysis. Outcome measures were 30-day survival and in-hospital interventions. We compared the outcomes between the sexes using multivariable logistic regression. Results: In total, 5,926 patients (4,270 men; 1,026 women) with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest were eligible for our analysis. The proportions of patients with 30-day survival outcomes were 39.5% (1685/4,270) and 37.4% (384/1,026) in the male and female groups, respectively (crude odds ratio, 0.92; 95% confidence interval, 0.80-1.06). Although there were no significant differences, survival outcomes tended to be better in women than in men in the multiple regression analysis (adjusted odds ratio: 1.38; 95% confidence interval: 0.82-2.33). Furthermore, there was no significant difference between the sexes in terms of patients who received extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (adjusted odds ratio: 0.81; 95% confidence interval: 0.49-1.33) or targeted temperature management (adjusted odds ratio: 0.99; 95% confidence interval: 0.68-1.46). Conclusions: After adjusting for prognostic factors, there were no differences in survival rates and in-hospital interventions between men and women.
RESUMEN
Aim: The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has led to an increase in out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCAs) and mortality. However, there has been no reports in Japan using nationwide registry data. We compared survival among patients with OHCAs and detailed information on the cause during the COVID-19 pandemic (2020), and during the pre-pandemic period (2019). Methods: Using a Japanese population-based retrospective cohort study design, we analyzed registry data on 39,324 and 39,170 patients with OHCAs in 2019 and 2020, respectively. We compared patient outcomes in 2019 and 2020 using univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses. Results: The proportion of OHCAs of cardiac origin increased significantly from 61.6% in 2019 to 62.7% in 2020 (P = 0.001). The use of bystander CPR (6.9% versus 5.7%, P < 0.001) and publicaccess automated external defibrillator pads (3.7% versus 3.0%, P < 0.001) decreased significantly from 2019 to 2020. The 1-month survival for OHCA of cardiac origin (12.1% versus 10.7%; adjusted odds ratio [OR] 0.93, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.87-1.00), asphyxia (10.9% versus 8.8%; adjusted OR 0.80, 95% CI 0.70-0.92), and external causes (adjusted OR 0.66; 95% CI 0.46-0.96), also decreased significantly from 2019 to 2020. Conclusions: In Japan, the 1-month survival after OHCA of cardiac origin, or due to asphyxia or external causes, decreased significantly during the COVID-19 pandemic period.
RESUMEN
AIM: Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) is performed in refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients, and the eligibility has been conventionally determined based on three criteria (initial cardiac rhythm, time to hospital arrival within 45 minutes, and age <75 years) in Japan. Owing to limited information, this study descriptively determined neurological outcomes after applying the three criteria among OHCA patients who underwent ECPR. METHODS: This study conducted a post-hoc analysis of data from the Comprehensive Registry of Intensive Care for OHCA Survival (CRITICAL) study. This was a multi-institutional prospective observational study of OHCA patients in Osaka Prefecture, Japan. All adult (aged ≥18 years) OHCA patients with internal medical causes treated with ECPR between 1 July 2012 and 31 December 2019 were evaluated. We described one-month neurological favourable outcomes based on the three criteria (initial shockable, time to hospital arrival within 45 minutes, and age <75 years), and we compared them using the chi-square test. RESULTS: Among 18,379 patients screened from the CRITICAL study database, we included 517 OHCA patients treated by ECPR; 311 (60.2%) patients met all three criteria. Favourable neurological outcomes were as follows: patients meeting no or one criterion: 2.3% (1/43), those meeting two criteria: 8% (13/163), and those meeting all criteria: 16.1% (50/311) (P-value = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS: In this study, approximately 60% of patients treated by ECPR met the three criteria (initial shockable, time to hospital arrival within 45 minutes, and age <75 years), and the greater the number of criteria met, the better were the neurological outcomes achieved.

Aim: We aimed to identify subphenotypes among patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) with initial non-shockable rhythm by applying machine learning latent class analysis and examining the associations between subphenotypes and neurological outcomes. Methods: This study was a retrospective analysis within a multi-institutional prospective observational cohort study of OHCA patients in Osaka, Japan (the CRITICAL study). The data of adult OHCA patients with medical causes and initial non-shockable rhythm presenting with OHCA between 2012 and 2016 were included in machine learning latent class analysis models, which identified subphenotypes, and patients who presented in 2017 were included in a dataset validating the subphenotypes. We investigated associations between subphenotypes and 30-day neurological outcomes. Results: Among the 12,594 patients in the CRITICAL study database, 4,849 were included in the dataset used to classify subphenotypes (median age: 75 years, 60.2% male), and 1,465 were included in the validation dataset (median age: 76 years, 59.0% male). Latent class analysis identified four subphenotypes. Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals for a favorable 30-day neurological outcome among patients with these subphenotypes, using group 4 for comparison, were as follows; group 1, 0.01 (0.001-0.046); group 2, 0.097 (0.051-0.171); and group 3, 0.175 (0.073-0.358). Associations between subphenotypes and 30-day neurological outcomes were validated using the validation dataset. Conclusion: We identified four subphenotypes of OHCA patients with initial non-shockable rhythm. These patient subgroups presented with different characteristics associated with 30-day survival and neurological outcomes.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: The association between spontaneous initial body temperature on hospital arrival and neurological outcomes has not been sufficiently studied in patients after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). METHODS: From the prospective database of the Comprehensive Registry of Intensive Care for OHCA Survival (CRITICAL) study in Osaka, Japan, we enrolled all patients with OHCA of medical origin aged > 18 years for whom resuscitation was attempted and who were transported to participating hospitals between 2012 and 2019. We excluded patients who were not witnessed by bystanders and treated by a doctor car or helicopter, which is a car/helicopter with a physician. The patients were categorized into three groups according to their temperature on hospital arrival: ≤35.9 °C, 36.0-36.9 °C (normothermia), and ≥ 37.0 °C. The primary outcome was 1-month survival, with a cerebral performance category of 1 or 2. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate the association between temperature and outcomes (normothermia was used as the reference). We also assessed this association using cubic spline regression analysis. RESULTS: Of the 18,379 patients in our database, 5014 witnessed adult OHCA patients of medical origin from 16 hospitals were included. When analyzing 3318 patients, OHCA patients with an initial body temperature of ≥37.0 °C upon hospital arrival were associated with decreased favorable neurological outcomes (6.6% [19/286] odds ratio, 0.51; 95% confidence interval, 0.27-0.95) compared to patients with normothermia (16.4% [180/1100]), whereas those with an initial body temperature of ≤35.9 °C were not associated with decreased favorable neurological outcomes (11.1% [214/1932]; odds ratio, 0.78; 95% confidence interval, 0.56-1.07). The cubic regression splines demonstrated that a higher body temperature on arrival was associated with decreased favorable neurological outcomes, and a lower body temperature was not associated with decreased favorable neurological outcomes. CONCLUSIONS: In adult patients with OHCA of medical origin, a higher body temperature on arrival was associated with decreased favorable neurologic outcomes.

Dysnatremia is an electrolytic disorder commonly associated with mortality in various diseases. However, little is known about dysnatremia in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) cases. Here, we investigated the association between serum sodium level on hospital arrival and neurological outcomes after OHCA. This nationwide hospital-based observational study (The Japanese Association for Acute Medicine Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest registry) enrolled patients with OHCA between 2014 and 2017. We included adult patients aged ≥ 18 years with non-traumatic OHCA who achieved return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and whose serum sodium level on hospital arrival was available. Based on the serum sodium level, patients were divided into three levels: hyponatremia (Na < 135 mEq/L), normal sodium level (Na ≥ 135 or ≤ 145 mEq/L), and hypernatremia (Na > 145 mEq/L). The primary outcome was 1-month survival with favourable neurological outcomes. Altogether, 34 754 patients with OHCA were documented, and 5160 patients with non-traumatic OHCA and who achieved ROSC were eligible for our analyses. The proportion of favourable neurological outcomes was highest in patients with normal sodium levels at 17.6% (677/3854), followed by patients with hyponatremia at 8.2% (57/696) and patients with hypernatremia at 5.7% (35/610). Moreover, hyponatremia and hypernatremia were associated with a decreased probability of favourable neurological outcomes compared with normal sodium level (vs. hyponatremia, adjusted odds ratio [AOR] 0.97, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.95-0.99; vs. hypernatremia, AOR 0.96, 95% CI 0.94-0.98). Hypo- and hypernatremia on hospital arrival were associated with a decreased probability of favourable neurological outcomes in patients with non-traumatic OHCA who achieved ROSC.

BACKGROUND: The hypothesis of this study is that latent class analysis could identify the subphenotypes of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients associated with the outcomes and allow us to explore heterogeneity in the effects of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR).MethodsâandâResults:This study was a retrospective analysis of a multicenter prospective observational study (CRITICAL study) of OHCA patients. It included adult OHCA patients with initial shockable rhythm. Patients from 2012 to 2016 (development dataset) were included in the latent class analysis, and those from 2017 (validation dataset) were included for evaluation. The association between subphenotypes and outcomes was investigated. Further, the heterogeneity of the association between ECPR implementation and outcomes was explored. In the study results, a total of 920 patients were included for latent class analysis. Three subphenotypes (Groups 1, 2, and 3) were identified, mainly characterized by the distribution of partial pressure of O2(PO2), partial pressure of CO2(PCO2) value of blood gas assessment, cardiac rhythm on hospital arrival, and estimated glomerular filtration rate. The 30-day survival outcomes were varied across the groups: 15.7% in Group 1; 30.7% in Group 2; and 85.9% in Group 3. Further, the association between ECPR and 30-day survival outcomes by subphenotype groups in the development dataset was as varied. These results were validated using the validation dataset. CONCLUSIONS: The latent class analysis identified 3 subphenotypes with different survival outcomes and potential heterogeneity in the effects of ECPR.

AIM: To develop and validate a model for the early prediction of long-term neurological outcome in patients with non-traumatic out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). METHODS: We analysed multicentre OHCA registry data of adult patients with non-traumatic OHCA who experienced return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and had been admitted to the intensive care unit between 2013 and 2017. We allocated 1329 (2013-2015) and 1025 patients (2016-2017) to the derivation and validation sets, respectively. The primary outcome was the dichotomized cerebral performance category (CPC) at 90 days, defined as good (CPC 1-2) or poor (CPC 3-5). We developed 2 models: model 1 included variables without laboratory data, and model 2 included variables with laboratory data available immediately after ROSC. Logistic regression with least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regularization was employed for model development. Measures of discrimination, accuracy, and calibration (C-statistics, Brier score, calibration plot, and net benefit) were assessed in the validation set. RESULTS: The C-statistic (95% confidence intervals) of models 1 and 2 in the validation set was 0.947 (0.930-0.964) and 0.950 (0.934-0.966), respectively. The Brier score of models 1 and 2 in the validation set was 0.0622 and 0.0606, respectively. The calibration plot showed that both models were well-calibrated to the observed outcome. Decision curve analysis indicated that model 2 was similar to model 1. CONCLUSION: The prediction tool containing detailed in-hospital information showed good performance for predicting neurological outcome at 90 days immediately after ROSC in patients with OHCA.

BACKGROUND: The aim of our study was to investigate in detail the temporal trends in in-hospital characteristics, actual management, and survival, including neurological status, among adult out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients in recent years.MethodsâandâResults:From the prospective database of the Comprehensive Registry of Intensive Care for OHCA Survival (CRITICAL) study in Osaka, Japan, we enrolled all OHCA patients aged ≥18 years for whom resuscitation was attempted, and who were transported to participating hospitals between the years 2013 and 2017. The primary outcome measure was 1-month survival with favorable neurological outcome after OHCA. Temporal trends in in-hospital management and favorable neurological outcome among adult OHCA patients were assessed. Of the 11,924 patients in the database, we included a total of 10,228 adult patients from 16 hospitals. As for in-hospital advanced treatments, extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) use increased from 2.4% in 2013 to 4.3% in 2017 (P for trend <0.001). However, the proportion of adult OHCA patients with favorable neurological outcome did not change during the study period (from 5.7% in 2013 to 4.4% in 2017, adjusted odds ratio (OR) for 1-year increment: 0.98 (95% confidence interval: 0.94-1.23)). CONCLUSIONS: In this target population, in-hospital management such as ECPR increased slightly between 2013 and 2017, but 1-month survival with favorable neurological outcome after adult OHCA did not improve significantly.

We aimed to investigate the association between serum lactate levels during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and survival in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). From the database of a multicenter registry on OHCA patients, we included adult nontraumatic OHCA patients transported to the hospital with ongoing CPR. Based on the serum lactate levels during CPR, the patients were divided into four quartiles: Q1 (≤ 10.6 mEq/L), Q2 (10.6-14.1 mEq/L), Q3 (14.1-18.0 mEq/L), and Q4 (> 18.0 mEq/L). The primary outcome was 1-month survival. Among 5226 eligible patients, the Q1 group had the highest 1-month survival (5.6% [74/1311]), followed by Q2 (3.6% [47/1316]), Q3 (1.7% [22/1292]), and Q4 (1.0% [13/1307]) groups. In the multivariable logistic regression analysis, the adjusted odds ratio of Q4 compared with Q1 for 1-month survival was 0.24 (95% CI 0.13-0.46). 1-month survival decreased in a stepwise manner as the quartiles increased (p for trend < 0.001). In subgroup analysis, there was an interaction between initial rhythm and survival (p for interaction < 0.001); 1-month survival of patients with a non-shockable rhythm decreased when the lactate levels increased (p for trend < 0.001), but not in patients with a shockable rhythm (p for trend = 0.72). In conclusion, high serum lactate level during CPR was associated with poor 1-month survival in OHCA patients, especially in patients with non-shockable rhythm.
