Association between Body Mass Index and Outcomes in Patients with Return of Spontaneous Circulation after Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Increased body mass index (BMI) is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, stroke, and metabolic diseases. A high BMI may affect outcomes of post-cardiac arrest patients, but the association remains debatable. We aimed to determine the association between BMI and outcomes in patients with return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). A systematic literature search was conducted using MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library. Studies that included patients who presented ROSC after OHCA, had a recorded BMI, and were assessed for neurological outcomes and in-hospital mortality were included. To assess the risk of bias of each included study, we employed the Risk of Bias Assessment Tool for Non-randomized Studies. We assessed 2427 patients from six studies. Neurological outcomes were significantly poorer in underweight patients (risk ratio (RR) = 1.21; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.07-1.37; p = 0.002; I² = 51%) than in normal-weight patients. Additionally, in-hospital mortality rate was significantly higher in underweight patients (RR = 1.35; 95% CI = 1.14-1.60; p<0.001; I² = 21%) and in obese patients (RR = 1.25; 95% CI = 1.12-1.39; p<0.001; I² = 0%) than in normal-weight patients. Poor neurological outcome is associated with underweight, and low survival rate is associated with underweight and obesity in patients with ROSC after OHCA.

Project description:This study aimed to identify neurological and pathophysiological factors that predicted return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) among patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). This prospective 1-year observational study evaluated patients with cardiogenic OHCA who were admitted to a tertiary medical center, Nippon Medical School Hospital. Physiological and neurological examinations were performed at admission for quantitative infrared pupillometry (measured with NPi-200, NeurOptics, CA, USA), arterial blood gas, and blood chemistry. Simultaneous blood samples were also collected to determine levels of neuron-specific enolase (NSE), S-100b, phosphorylated neurofilament heavy subunit, and interleukin-6. In-hospital standard advanced cardiac life support was performed for 30?minutes.The ROSC (n?=?26) and non-ROSC (n?=?26) groups were compared, which a revealed significantly higher pupillary light reflex ratio, which was defined as the percent change between maximum pupil diameter before light stimuli and minimum pupil diameter after light stimuli, in the ROSC group (median: 1.3% [interquartile range (IQR): 0.0-2.0%] vs. non-ROSC: (median: 0%), (Cut-off: 0.63%). Furthermore, NSE provided the great sensitivity and specificity for predicting ROSC, with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.86, which was created by plotting sensitivity and 1-specificity. Multivariable logistic regression analyses revealed that the independent predictors of ROSC were maximum pupillary diameter (odds ratio: 0.25, 95% confidence interval: 0.07-0.94, P?=?0.04) and NSE at admission (odds ratio: 0.96, 95% confidence interval: 0.93-0.99, P?=?0.04). Pupillary diameter was also significantly correlated with NSE concentrations (r?=?0.31, P?=?0.027). Conclusively, the strongest predictors of ROSC among patients with OHCA were accurate pupillary diameter and a neuronal biomarker, NSE. Quantitative pupillometry may help guide the decision to terminate resuscitation in emergency departments using a neuropathological rationale. Further large-scale studies are needed.

Project description:BackgroundIn Europe, survival-rates after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) vary widely between regions. Whether a system dispatching First Responders (FRs; main FR-types: firefighters, police officers, citizen-responders) is present or not may be associated with survival-rates. This study aimed to assess the association between having a dispatched FR-system and rates of return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and survival across Europe.MethodsResults of an inventory of dispatched FR-systems for OHCA in Europe were combined with aggregate ROSC and survival data from the EuReCa-TWO study and additionally collected data. Regression analysis (weighted on number of patients included per region) was performed to study the association between having a dispatched FR-system and ROSC and survival-rates to hospital discharge in the total population and in patients with shockable initial rhythm, witnessed OHCA and bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR; Utstein comparator group). For regions without a dispatched FR-system, the theoretical survival-rate if a dispatched FR-system would have existed was estimated.FindingsWe included 27 European regions. There were 15,859 OHCAs in the total group and 2,326 OHCAs in the Utstein comparator group. Aggregate ROSC and survival-rates were significantly higher in regions with an FR-system compared to regions without (ROSC: 36% [95%CI 35%-37%] vs. 24% [95%CI 23%-25%]; P<0.001; survival in total population [N=15.859]: 13% [95%CI 12%-15%] vs. 5% [95%CI 4%-6%]; P<0.001; survival in Utstein comparator group [N=2326]: 33% [95%CI 30%-36%] vs. 18% [95%CI 16%-20%]; P<0.001), and in regions with more than one FR-type compared to regions with only one FR-type. All main FR-types were associated with higher survival-rates (all P<0.050).InterpretationEuropean regions with dispatched FRs showed higher ROSC and survival-rates than regions without.FundingThis project/work has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under acronym ESCAPE-NET, registered under grant agreement No 733381 (IO, HLT and MTB) and the European Union's COST programme under acronym PARQ, registered under grant agreement No CA19137 (IO, DC, HLT, MTB).
