Abstract Background The International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation guidelines recommend target temperature management (TTM) between 32 and 36 °C for patients after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, but did not indicate patient-specific temperatures. The association of serum lactate concentration and neurological outcome in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patient has been reported. The study aim was to investigate the benefit of 32–34 °C in patients with various degrees of hyperlactatemia compared to 35–36 °C. Methods This study was a post hoc analysis of the Japanese Association for Acute Medicine out-of-hospital cardiac arrest registry between June 2014 and December 2015. Patients with complete targeted temperature management and lactate data were eligible. Patients were stratified to mild (< 7 mmol/l), moderate (< 12 mmol/l), or severe (≥ 12 mmol/l) hyperlactatemia group based on lactate concentration after return of spontaneous circulation. They were subdivided into 32–34 °C or 35–36 °C groups. The primary endpoint was an adjusted predicted probability of 30-day favorable neurological outcome, defined as a cerebral performance category score of 1 or 2. Result Of 435 patients, 139 had mild, 182 had moderate, and 114 had severe hyperlactatemia. One hundred and eight (78%) with mild, 128 with moderate (70%), and 83 with severe hyperlactatemia (73%) received TTM at 32–34 °C. The adjusted predicted probability of a 30-day favorable neurological outcome following severe hyperlactatemia was significantly greater with 32–34 °C (27.4%, 95% confidence interval: 22.0–32.8%) than 35–36 °C (12.4%, 95% CI 3.5–21.2%; p = 0.005). The differences in outcomes in those with mild and moderate hyperlactatemia were not significant. Conclusions In OHCA patients with severe hyperlactatemia, the adjusted predicted probability of 30-day favorable neurological outcome was greater with TTM at 32–34 °C than with TTM at 35–36 °C. Further evaluation is needed to determine whether TTM at 32–34 °C can improve neurological outcomes in patients with severe hyperlactatemia after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.

Abstract Background Transthoracic echocardiographic (TTE) indices of myocardial function among survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) have been related to neurological outcome; however, results are inconsistent. We hypothesized that changes in average peak systolic mitral annular velocity (s’) from 24 h (h) to 72 h following start of targeted temperature management (TTM) predict six-month neurological outcome in comatose OHCA survivors. Methods We investigated the association between peak systolic velocity of the mitral plane (s’) and six-month neurological outcome in a population of 99 patients from a randomised controlled trial comparing TTM at 33 ± 1 °C for 24 h (h) (n = 47) vs. 48 h (n = 52) following OHCA (TTH48-trial). TTE was conducted at 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h after reaching target temperature. The primary outcome was 180 days neurological outcome assessed by Cerebral Performance Category score (CPC180) and the primary TTE outcome measure was s’. Secondary outcome measures were left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), global longitudinal strain (GLS), e’, E/e’ and tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE). Results Across all three scan time points s’ was not associated with neurological outcome (ORs: 24 h: 1.0 (95%CI: 0.7–1.4, p = 0.98), 48 h: 1.13 (95%CI: 0.9–1.4, p = 0.34), 72 h: 1.04 (95%CI: 0.8–1.4, p = 0.76)). LVEF, GLS, E/e’, and TAPSE recorded on serial TTEs following OHCA were neither associated with nor did they predict CPC180. Estimated median e’ at 48 h following TTM was 5.74 cm/s (95%CI: 5.27–6.22) in patients with good outcome (CPC180 1–2) vs. 4.95 cm/s (95%CI: 4.37–5.54) in patients with poor outcome (CPC180 3–5) (p = 0.04). Conclusions s’ assessed on serial TTEs in comatose survivors of OHCA treated with TTM was not associated with CPC180. Our findings suggest that serial TTEs in the early post-resuscitation phase during TTM do not aid the prognostication of neurological outcome following OHCA. Trial registration NCT02066753.

Background: An increasing number of cardiac centres are using immediate percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) in patients with refractory out of hospital cardiac arrest (r-OHCA). Published evidence regarding PCI in OHCA has been mainly reporting to patients with early return of spontaneous circulation and the influence of PCI and ECPR on survival in the population of patients with r-OHCA and acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains unclear. Methods: In this post hoc analysis of the randomized r-OHCA trial, all patients with ACS as a cause of r-OHCA were included. The effect of successful PCI and ECPR on 180-days survival was examined using Kaplan-Meier estimates and multivariable Cox regression. Results: In total, 256 patients were evaluated in Prague OHCA study and 127 (49.6 %) had ACS as the cause of r-OHCA constituting current study population. The mean age was 58 years (46.3-64) and duration of resuscitation was 52.5 minutes (36.5-68). ECPR was used in 51 (40.2 %) of patients. Immediate PCI was performed in 86 (67.7%) patients and TIMI flow 2 or 3 was achieved in 75 (87.2%) patients. The overall 180-days survival of patients with successful PCI was 40 % compared to 7.7 % with no or failed immediate PCI (log-rank p < 0.001). After adjustment for confounders, successful PCI was associated with a lower risk of death (HR 0.47, CI 0.24-0.93, p = 0.031). Likewise, ECPR was associated with a lower risk of death (HR 0.11, CI 0.05-0.24, p< 0.001). Conclusion: In this post hoc analysis of the randomized r-OHCA trial, successful immediate PCI as well as ECPR were associated with improved 180-days survival in patients with r-OHCA due to ACS.
