RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Treating patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) requires early prediction of outcome, ideally on hospital arrival, as it can inform the clinical decisions involved. This study evaluated whether partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PCO2) on arrival is associated with outcome at one month OHCA patients. METHODS: This was a single-center retrospective study of adult OHCA patients treated between January 2016 and December 2020. Outcomes were defined along the Cerebral Performance Category (CPC) scale. Primary outcome was mortality (CPC 5) at one month. Secondary outcomes were death or unfavorable neurological outcome (CPC 3-5) and unfavorable neurological outcome (CPC 3-4) at one month. Multivariable analysis was adjusted for age, sex, witnessed cardiac arrest, bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation, initial shockable rhythm, and time from call to emergency medical services to hospital arrival. RESULTS: Out of 977 OHCA patients in the study period, 19 were excluded because they were aged under 18 years, 79 because they underwent extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and 101 due to lack of PCO2 data. This study included 778 patients total; mortality (CPC 5) at one month was observed in 706 (90.7%), death or unfavorable neurological outcome (CPC 3-5) in 743 (95.5%), and unfavorable neurological outcome (CPC 3-4) in 37 (4.8%). In multivariable analysis, high PCO2 levels showed significant association with mortality (CPC 5) at one month (odds ratio [OR] [per 5 mmHg], 1.14; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.08-1.21), death or unfavorable neurological outcome (CPC 3-5) (OR [per 5 mmHg], 1.29; 95% CI, 1.17-1.42), and unfavorable neurological outcome (CPC 3-4) (OR [per 5 mmHg], 1.21; 95% CI, 1.04-1.41). CONCLUSIONS: High PCO2 on arrival was significantly associated with mortality and unfavorable neurological outcome in OHCA patients.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Stress hyperglycemia is a normal response to stress and has been associated with outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients. However, this association remained unknown in OHCA patients receiving extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR). This study aimed to examine the association between degree of stress hyperglycemia on admission and neurological outcomes at discharge in OHCA patients receiving ECPR. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This was a retrospective cohort study of adult OHCA patients receiving ECPR between 2011 and 2021. Patients were classified into three groups: absence of stress hyperglycemia (blood glucose level on admission < 200 mg/dL), moderate stress hyperglycemia (200-299 mg/dL), and severe stress hyperglycemia (≥ 300 mg/dL). The primary outcome was unfavorable neurological outcome (Cerebral Performance Category: 3-5) at discharge. RESULTS: This study included 160 patients; unfavorable neurological outcomes totaled 79.4% (n = 127). There were 23, 52, and 85 patients in the absence, moderate, and severe stress hyperglycemia groups, respectively. Of each group, unfavorable neurological outcomes constituted 91.3%, 71.2%, and 81.2%, respectively. Multivariable analysis showed that, compared with moderate stress hyperglycemia, absence of stress hyperglycemia on admission was significantly associated with unfavorable neurological outcome at discharge (odds ratio [OR], 4.70; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.07-33.35; p = 0.039). CONCLUSION: Compared with moderate stress hyperglycemia on admission, absence of stress hyperglycemia showed significant association with unfavorable neurological outcome at discharge in OHCA patients receiving ECPR.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Studies describing the effectiveness of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) for peripartum cardiopulmonary arrest are lacking. CASE PRESENTATION: A 39-year-old woman underwent elective cesarean section. Right after surgery, she fell into a cardiac arrest and was promptly transferred to our institute by ambulance. On arrival, we immediately initiated ECPR, within 63 min of the cardiac arrest. Return of spontaneous circulation was achieved 80 min after induction of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. As the hemodynamics of the patient stabilized, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation was discontinued on day 3 of hospitalization. The patient's cerebral performance category score was 3 at discharge, which improved to 2 after 3 months. CONCLUSION: This case suggests that prompt interhospital transfer and ECPR might be effective for peripartum cardiac arrest due to nonhemorrhagic events.

RESUMO

AIM: As an emergency measure during the coronavirus disease pandemic, the monitoring interval for clozapine use was temporarily extended beyond the regulatory requirement in Japan, which is the safest monitoring interval worldwide. In this study, we aimed to explore the effect of this measure on patients undergoing clozapine treatment. METHODS: This retrospective chart review study included patients with treatment-resistant schizophrenia (TRS) who were undergoing clozapine treatment at four psychiatric institutions in Japan. Demographic characteristics and clinical information of these patients were collected on April 27, 2020, when Japanese psychiatrists were virtually allowed to prescribe clozapine beyond the regulatory requirement. Furthermore, information of adverse events related to the emergency measure was collected and analyzed. RESULTS: Of the 41 patients with TRS included in this study, 19 patients underwent extended hematological monitoring during clozapine treatment. No psychiatric or hematological adverse events were observed in the patients during the extended monitoring interval. CONCLUSION: This study suggested that there were few adverse events of clozapine-treated patients related to emergency measures in Japan. However, hematological monitoring intervals during clozapine treatment have been emergently extended worldwide; hence, it is necessary to verify the results of these measures.
