Introduction: Evidence for the effectiveness of coronary angiography after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is conflicting. Our objective was to evaluate the association between receiving coronary angiography within 72 hours of hospital arrival and survival with favorable neurologic outcome. Methods: This was a population-based retrospective cohort study of consecutive cases of adult OHCA transported to and treated at 28 hospitals in Southern Ontario between March 1, 2010 and December 31, 2014. We included patients with atraumatic OHCA, who achieved return of spontaneous circulation, and were alive 6 hours after hospital arrival. Multi-level logistic regression was used to measure the association between early coronary angiography and neurologically intact survival (Modified Rankin Score 0-2), while controlling for potential confounders and clustered data. We controlled for age, sex, initial cardiac rhythm, witness status, bystander resuscitation, EMS response time, prehospital return of spontaneous circulation, location of arrest, daytime presentation, neurologic status at hospital arrival, STEMI status, cardiac history, initiation of therapeutic hypothermia, hospital size and type, and hospital annual cardiac arrest volume. Results: During the period of study, 2678 consecutive OHCA patients met the inclusion criteria. The mean age was 66(±16), 31.7% were female, 54.1% had a bystander witnessed arrest, 35.2% received bystander CPR, 45.9% had a shockable initial rhythm, 30.1% had ST elevation on the first post arrest ECG, and 32.4% received coronary angiography. Receiving coronary angiography was strongly associated with neurologically intact survival (OR 2.30, CI95 1.69-3.15) and survival (OR 2.08, CI95 1.53-2.82). A similar association was observed in the subgroup of patients without STEMI (OR 3.24, CI95 2.16-4.87 and OR 2.66, CI95 1.78-3.99, respectively). Conclusions: Neurologically intact survival among post cardiac arrest patients may be improved with coronary angiography, particularly for patients without STEMI. This observation should be confirmed with future randomized controlled studies.

Introduction: Previous studies have suggested an association between coronary angiography and improved outcomes amongst post cardiac arrest patients. Our objective was to measure the association between patient and hospital-level characteristics and receipt of coronary angiography to generate hypotheses to inform a definitive trial. Methods: This was a population-based retrospective cohort study of data from 28 hospitals in Southern Ontario between March 1, 2010 and December 31, 2014. We included consecutive adult patients with atraumatic, OHCA, who achieved return of spontaneous circulation, and were alive 6 hours after hospital arrival. Multi-level logistic regression was used to measure the relationship between patient and hospital-level covariates and receipt of coronary angiography, adjusted for clustering and potential confounders. Results: During the period of study, 2678 consecutive patients met the inclusion criteria; mean age 66(±16), 68.3% male, 45.9% shockable initial rhythm, 84.2% comatose at hospital admission. Overall, 32.4% received coronary angiography and 21.8% received percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Coronary angiography use varied from 12.7% to 63.6% across the sites. Factors significantly associated with receiving coronary angiography included ST-elevation (OR=23.31, CI95 17.64-30.80), being comatose at hospital arrival (OR=0.15, CI95 0.10-0.23), shockable initial cardiac rhythm (OR=4.87, CI95 3.70-6.41), bystander AED use (OR=2.05, CI95 1.21-3.47), EMS-witnessed arrest (OR=1.80, CI95 1.16-2.78), initiation of therapeutic hypothermia (OR=1.96, CI95 1.38-2.79), initial admission to a PCI centre (OR=3.20, CI95 1.78-5.76), male sex (OR=1.43, CI95 1.07-1.90) and age (OR=0.98, CI95 0.97-0.99). Conclusions: There is significant variability in receipt of coronary angiography after cardiac arrest. We identified several patient and hospital-level factors that contribute to this variability. Future work should determine which post arrest patients will benefit most from urgent angiography and develop and evaluate knowledge translation strategies to ensure consistent delivery of best practices.

Introduction: Multiple citizen responder (CR) programs worldwide which dispatch laypersons to out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and use of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) were affected by the COVID-19 outbreak in 2020, but little is known about how the pandemic affected CR activation and initiation of bystander CPR and defibrillation. In Denmark, the CR program continued to run during lockdown but with the recommendation to perform chest-compression-only CPR in contrast to standard CPR including ventilations. We hypothesized that bystander interventions as CPR and AED usage decreased during the first COVID-19 lockdown in two regions of Denmark in the spring of 2020. Methods: All OHCAs from January 1, 2020 to June 30, 2020 with CR activation from the Danish Cardiac Arrest Registry and the National Citizen Responder database. Bystander CPR, AED usage, and CRs’ alarm acceptance rate during the national lockdown from March 11, 2020 to April 20, 2020 were compared with the non-lockdown period from January 1, 2020 to March 10, 2020 and from April 21 to June 30, 2020. Results: A total of 6,120 CRs were alerted in 443 (23/100.000 inhabitants) cases of presumed OHCA of which 256 (58%) were confirmed cardiac arrests. Bystander CPR remained equally high in the lockdown period compared with non-lockdown period (99% vs. 92%, p=0.07). Likewise, there was no change in bystander defibrillation (9% vs. 14%, p=0.4). There was a slight increase in the number of CRs who accepted an alarm (7 per alarm, IQR 4) during lockdown compared with non-lockdown period (6 per alarm, IQR 4), p=0.0001. The proportion of patients achieving return of spontaneous circulation at hospital arrival was also unchanged (lockdown 23% vs non-lockdown 23%, p=1.0) (Table 1). Conclusion: Bystander initiated resuscitation rates did not change during the first COVID-19 lockdown in Denmark for OHCAs where CRs were activated through a smartphone app.

Background: Early cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and early defibrillation are critical to survival from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). However, few studies have investigated the relationship between time interval from collapse to return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and neurologically intact survival. Methods: From the All-Japan OHCA Utstein Registry between 2005 and 2015, we enrolled adult patients achieving prehospital ROSC after witnessed OHCA, inclusive of arrest after emergency medical service responder arrival. The study patients were divided into two groups according to initial cardiac arrest rhythm (shockable versus non-shockable). The collapse-to-ROSC interval was calculated as the time interval from collapse to first achievement of prehospital ROSC. The primary endpoint was 30-day favorable neurological outcome after OHCA. Results: A total of 69,208 adult patients achieving prehospital ROSC after witnessed OHCA were enrolled; 23,017(33.3%) the shockable arrest group and 46,191 (66.7%) the non-shockable arrest group. The shockable arrest group compared with the non-shockable arrest group had significantly shorter collapse-to-ROSC interval (16±10 min vs. 20±13 min, P<0.001) and significantly higher frequency of the favorable neurological outcome (54.9% vs. 15.3%, P<0.001). Frequencies of the favorable neurological outcome after shockable OHCA decreased to 1.2% to 1.5% with every minute that the collapse-to-ROSC interval was delayed (78% at 1 minute of collapse, 68% at 10 minutes, 44% at 20 minutes, 34% at 30 minutes, 16% at 40 minutes, 4% at 50 minutes and 0% at 60 minutes, respectively, P<0.001), and those after non-shockable OHCA decreased to 0.8% to 1.8% with every minute that the collapse-to-ROSC interval was delayed (40% at 1 minute of collapse, 26% at 10 minutes, 11% at 20 minutes, 5% at 30 minutes, 2% at 40 minutes, 0% at 50 minutes and 0% at 60 minutes, respectively, P<0.001). Conclusions: Termination of the collapse-to-ROSC interval to achieve neurologically intact survival after witnessed OHCA was 50 minutes or longer irrespective of initial cardiac arrest rhythm (shockable versus non-shockable), although the neurologically intact survival rate was difference between the two groups.

Introduction: Time to return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) is a more important predictor of neurologically intact survival than the presence of ROSC in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). However, the differences in the relationship between time to ROSC and neurologically intact survival in patients with OHCA based on age is unclear. Hypothesis: We hypothesized that the impact of time to ROSC on neurologically intact survival differs according to age. Methods: We analyzed the data of 34,905 patients with OHCA (age ≥18 years) who exhibited prehospital ROSC from the prospectively recorded all-Japan OHCA registry (2011-2014). The primary outcome was neurologically intact survival at 1 month after OHCA (cerebral performance category [CPC] 1 or 2). Time to ROSC was defined as the interval from the initiation of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) by emergency medical service (EMS) providers to the achievement of ROSC. We categorized time to ROSC by every 4-min interval (2 cycles of CPR) from 1 to 32 min and ≥33 min, and age into 4 groups: 18-64, 65-74, 75-89, and ≥90 years. Results: The overall CPC 1-2 rate was 21.1% (7,353/34,905). Increasing time to ROSC (per min) was negatively associated with CPC 1-2 (adjusted odds ratio, 0.91; 95% confidence interval, 0.90-0.91). The CPC 1-2 rates decreased as time to ROSC increased in each age group: from 58.8% (1,247/2,122) in 1-4 min to 2.8% (7/246) in ≥33 min for patients aged 18-64 years, from 51.1% (721/1,410) in 1-4 min to 1.6% (4/244) in ≥33 min for 65-74 years, from 37.3% (765/2,051) in 1-4 min to 0.7% (4/539) in 29-32 min for 75-89 years, and from 23.4% (92/393) in 1-4 min to 0.2% (1/481) in 17-20 min for ≥90 years (all p for trend <0.001). Conclusions: The CPC 1-2 rates of patients aged 18-64 and 65-74 years were above the 1% futility rate when prehospital ROSC was achieved after prolonged CPR, ≥33 min from initiation by EMS providers. However, the CPC 1-2 rates were below the 1% futility rate when prehospital ROSC was achieved ≥29 min and ≥17 min for patients aged 75-89 years and ≥90 years, respectively.
