Abstract Background: Given the morphological characteristics of schistocytes, thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) score can be beneficial as it can be quickly and serially measured without additional effort or costs. This study aimed to investigate whether the serial TMA scores until 48 h post admission are associated with clinical outcomes in patients undergoing targeted temperature management (TTM) after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Methods:We retrospectively evaluated a cohort of 185 patients using a prospective registry. We analyzed the TMA score at admission and after 12, 24, and 48 hours. The primary outcome measures were poor neurologic outcome at discharge and 30-day mortality. Results:Increased TMA scores at all measured time points were independent predictors of poor neurologic outcomes and 30-day mortality, with the TMA score at time-12 showing the strongest correlation (OR, 3.008; 95% CI, 1.707–5.3; p=0.001 and HR, 1.517; 95% CI, 1.196–1.925; p=0.001.Specifically, TMA score ≥2 at time-12 was closely associated with increased predictability of poor neurologic outcome (OR, 6.302; 95% CI: 2.841–13.976; p<0.001) and 30-day mortality (HR, 2.656; 95% CI: 1.675–4.211; p<0.001).Conclusions: Increased TMA scores predicted the neurologic outcome and 30-day mortalityin patients undergoing TTM after OHCA. In addition to the benefit of being quickly and serially measured by using an automated hematology analyzer without additional effort or costs, this finding indicates that the TMA score may be a helpful tool for rapid risk stratification and identification of the need for intensive care in patients with ROSC after OHCA.

Objectives: Targeted temperature management (TTM) is the core post-resuscitation care to minimize neurologic deficit after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Uncontrolled body temperature of patients may reflect the thermoregulation ability which can be associated with neurologic damage during arrest. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between initial body temperature (BT) and neurologic outcomes in OHCA patients who underwent TTM. Methods: We used nationwide OHCA database from January 2016 to December 2017. Adult OHCA patients with presumed cardiac etiology who underwent TTM after return-of-spontaneous circulation (ROSC) were included. The main exposure was a BT at initiation of TTM which was categorized into 3 groups: low (-35.5°c), middle(35.6°c-37.4°c), and high BT (37.5°c-). The primary outcome was good neurologic outcome (cerebral performance categories (CPC) 1 or 2). Adjusted ratios (AORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated to evaluate association between initial BT of TTM and outcome in multivariable logistic regression model. Stratified subgroup analyses were according to the target temperature of TTM (hypothermia vs normothermia). Results: Of a total of 744 patients, 208 (28.0%) patients were low initial BT group and 471 (63.3%) patients were normal initial BT group and 65 (8.7%) patients were high initial BT group. Good neurological recovery rate was 13.9% in low initial BT group, 41.8% in middle initial BT group and 36.9% in high initial BT group. The adjusted odds ratios for good neurologic recovery were 0.281 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.17-0.47) in low BT group and 0.65 (95% CI 0.34-1.27) in high BT group compared with normal initial BT group. Similar results were also found regardless of target temperature of TTM. Conclusion: Low initial BT of TTM was associated with unfavorable neurologic recovery for OHCA patients who underwent TTM after ROSC.

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.
