Background: The therapeutic hypothermia protocol for out of hospital cardiac arrest is not standardized and the decision to apply therapeutic hypothermia relies on a physician’s judgment. Elderly patients who rely on this judgment are less likely to receive therapeutic hypothermia. Objectives: This study aimed to provide an analysis of the impact and utility of therapeutic hypothermia on elderly out of hospital cardiac arrest. Methods: This was a multicenter, retrospective, observational, registry-based study from 2007 to 2012. Adults who suffered out-of-hospital cardiac arrest and were treated with therapeutic hypothermia were included. We divided the patients into a group of elderly patients 65 years or older and a group of young adults under 65 years old and compared the neurologic outcomes and adverse events after one-to-one matching by propensity score. Results: In total, 930 patients were enrolled in the study. Among these patients, 343 were ⩾65 years, while 587 were <65 years. Of the adverse events in therapeutic hypothermia, hyperglycemia (51.31%), hypotension (41.98%) during cooling was more frequent in aged ⩾65 years and rebound hyperthermia (7.14%) and hypotension (29.93%) during rewarming. After propensity score matching was applied to all subjects of the study, 247 matched pairs of patients were available. The two groups showed no statistically significant difference in the adverse events during therapeutic hypothermia. Conclusion: Elderly patients exhibited a decreased survival to hospital discharge and good neurologic outcomes. The two groups showed no differences in the frequency of adverse events during therapeutic hypothermia, when comparing in a propensity score matching cohort analysis.

Cardiac arrest (CA) is associated with high mortality and poor life quality. Targeted temperature management (TTM) or therapeutic hypothermia is a therapy increasing the survival of adult patients after CA. The study aim was to assess the feasibility of therapeutic hypothermia after pediatric CA. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials and observational studies evaluating the use of TTM after pediatric CA. The primary outcome was survival to hospital discharge or 30-day survival. Secondary outcomes included a one-year survival rate, survival with a Vineland adaptive behavior scale (VABS-II) score ≥ 70, and occurrence of adverse events. Ten articles (n = 2002 patients) were included, comparing TTM patients (n = 638) with controls (n = 1364). In a fixed-effects meta-analysis, survival to hospital discharge in the TTM group was 49.7%, which was higher than in the non-TTM group (43.5%; odds ratio, OR = 1.22; 95% confidence interval, CI: 1.00, 1.50; p = 0.06). There were no differences in the one-year survival rate or the occurrence of adverse events between the TTM and non-TTM groups. Altogether, the use of TTM was associated with a higher survival to hospital discharge; however, it did not significantly increase the annual survival. Additional high-quality prospective studies are necessary to confer additional TTM benefits.

Aim: To evaluate the priority of coronary angiography (CAG) and therapeutic hypothermia therapy (TH) after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Patients and Methods: SOS-KANTO 2012 study is a prospective, multicenter (69 emergency hospitals) and observational study and includes 16,452 patients with OHCA. Among the cases with ROSC in that study, we intended for patients treated with both CAG and TH within 24 hours after arrival. Those patients were divided into two groups; patients in whom TH was firstly performed (TH group), and the others in whom CAG was firstly done (CAG group). We statistically compared the prognosis between the two groups. SPSS Statistics 22 (IBM, Tokyo, Japan) was used for the statistical analysis. Statistical significance was assumed to be present at a p value of less than 0.05. Result: 233 patients were applied in this study. There were 86 patients in the TH group (M/F: 74/12, mean age; 60.0±15.2 y/o) and 147 in the CAG group (M/F: 126/21, mean age: 63.4±11.1 y/o) respectively, and no significant differences were found in the mean age and M/F ratio between the two groups. The overall performance categories (OPC) one month after ROSC in the both groups were as follows; in the TH group, OPC1: 21 (24.4%), OPC2: 3 (3.5%), OPC3: 7 (8.1%), OPC4: 8 (9.3%), OPC5: 43 (50.0%), unknown: 4 (4.7%), and in the CAG group, OPC1: 38 (25.9%), OPC2: 13 (8.8%), OPC3: 15 (10.2%), OPC4: 18 (12.2%), OPC5: 57 (38.8%), unknown: 6 (4.1%). There were no significant differences in the prognosis one month after ROSC between the two groups. Conclusion: The results which of TH and CAG you give priority to over do not affect the prognosis in patients with OHCA.
