Background: Our study aim was to identify the association of acidemia with neurological outcome among the out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients who undergo extracorporeal cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (E-CPR). Method: We analyzed the data from multi-institutional prospective cohort study (CRITICAL study: Comprehensive Registry of Intensive Cares for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest Survival) including 14 emergency departments in Osaka, Japan. We included adult out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients aged ≥18 years who undergo E-CPR. The exposure of interest was serum pH measured before start to E-CPR on admission, and it was divided to tertiles. The primary outcome was 30-days favorable neurological outcome defined as cerebral performance category 1 or 2. We calculated the adjusted odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) using logistic regression model, adjusted by age, sex, witness of collapse, by-stander CPR, cardiac rhythm on hospital arrival, and time to hospital arrival. Results: Among 9,822 patients in Critical study database, 303 patients were included in the analysis. The median (interquartile range) of the age was 62 (48-71) years-old. The range of serum pH in each tertile was as below; Tertile 1[ pH≥7.02, (n=101)], Tertile 2 [pH 6.87-7.02, (n=100)], Tertile 3 [pH <6.87, (n=102)]. The adjusted OR with 95%CI of tertile2, and 3 for favorable neurological outcome were 0.23 (0.09 to 0.58), and 0.18 (0.06 to 0.52) referred to Tertile 1, respectively. Conclusion: Among the out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients who undergo E-CPR, severe acidemia (pH < 7.02) on arrival was associated with 30-days poor neurological outcome. Serum pH measurement might be useful to consider the indication of E-CPR.

Background: Studies suggest that blood lactate differs between survivors and non-survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest who are transported to hospital. The prognostic role of lactate taken during out-of-hospital cardiac arrest remains unexplored. Aims: To measure the association between lactate taken during out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, survival to hospital and 30-day mortality. Methods: This is a feasibility, single-centre, prospective cohort study. Eligible for inclusion are patients aged ≥18 years suffering out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, receiving cardiopulmonary resuscitation, in the catchment of Newcastle or Gateshead hospitals, who are attended to by a study-trained specialist paramedic. Exclusions are known/apparent pregnancy, blunt or penetrating injury as primary cause of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest and an absence of intravenous access. Between February 2020 and March 2021, 100 participants will be enrolled. Primary outcome is survival to hospital; secondary outcomes are return of spontaneous circulation at any time and 30-day mortality.

Itroduction: Previous research has quantified the impact of EMS response time on the probability of survival from OHCA, but the impact on different subpopulations is currently unknown. Aim: To investigate how response time affects OHCA survival for different patient subpopulations. Methods: We conducted a logistic regression analysis on non-EMS witnessed OHCAs of presumed cardiac etiology from the Toronto Regional RescuNet between January 1, 2007 and December 31, 2016. We predicted survival using age, sex, public location, presenting rhythm, bystander witnessed, bystander resuscitation, and response time, defined as the time interval from 911 call to EMS arrival at the patient. We conducted subgroup analyses to quantify the effect of response time on survival for eight different subpopulations: public, private, bystander resuscitation, no bystander resuscitation, patients ≥65, patients <65, witnessed, and unwitnessed OHCA. We also quantified the effect of response time on survival for pairwise intersections of the subpopulations. We compared our results to Valenzuela et al. (1997), which suggests survival odds decrease by 10% for each minute delay in response time. Results: We identified 22,988 OHCAs. Overall, a one-minute delay in EMS response time was associated with a 13.2% reduction in the odds of survival. The reduction varied by subpopulation, ranging from a 7.2% reduction in survival odds for unwitnessed arrests to a 16.4% reduction in survival odds for arrests with bystander resuscitation. Response time had the largest impact on survival for the subpopulation of OHCAs that were both witnessed and received bystander resuscitation (17.4% reduction in survival odds). Conclusion: The effect of a one-minute delay in EMS response on the odds of survival from OHCA can be as low as a 7.2% reduction and as high as a 17.4% reduction. This variability contrasts with the currently accepted 10% rule that is assumed across the entire population.
