Project description:ImportanceAllocating resources to increase survival after cardiac arrest requires survivors to have a good quality of life, but long-term data are lacking.ObjectiveTo determine the quality of life of survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest from 2001 to 2019.Design, setting, and participantsThis survey study used the EuroQol Health Questionnaire, 12-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-12), and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) to assess the health-related quality of life of all adult survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest included in the Danish Cardiac Arrest Registry between June 1, 2001, and August 31, 2019, who were alive in October 2020 (follow-up periods, 0-1, >1-2, >2-4, >4-6, >6-8, >8-10, >10-15, and >15-20 years since arrest). The survey was conducted from October 1, 2020, through May 31, 2021.ExposureAll patients who experienced an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.Main outcome and measuresSelf-reported health was measured using the EuroQol Health Questionnaire index (EQ index) score and EQ visual analog scale. Physical and mental health were measured using the SF-12, and anxiety and depression were measured using the HADS. Descriptive statistics were used for the analysis.ResultsOf 4545 survivors, 2552 (56.1%) completed the survey, with a median follow-up since their event of 5.5 years (IQR, 2.9-8.9 years). Age was comparable between responders and nonresponders (median [IQR], 67 [58-74] years vs 68 [56-78] years), and 2075 responders (81.3%) were men and 477 (18.7%) women (vs 1473 male [73.9%] and 520 female [26.1%] nonresponders). For the shortest follow-up (0-1 year) and longest follow-up (>15-20 years) groups, the median EQ index score was 0.9 (IQR, 0.7-1.0) and 0.9 (0.8-1.0), respectively. For all responders, the mean (SD) SF-12 physical health score was 43.3 (12.3) and SF-12 mental health score, 52.9 (8.3). All 3 scores were comparable to a general Danish reference population. Based on HADS scores, a low risk for anxiety was reported by 73.0% (54 of 74) of 0- to 1-year survivors vs 89.3% (100 of 112) of greater than 15- to 20-year survivors; for symptoms of depression, these proportions were 79.7% (n = 59) and 87.5% (n = 98), respectively. Health-related quality of life was similar in survivor groups across all follow-up periods.Conclusions and relevanceAmong this survey study's responders, who comprised more than 50% of survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in Denmark, long-term health-related quality of life up to 20 years after their event was consistently high and comparable to that of the general population. These findings support resource allocation and efforts targeted to increasing survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.

Project description:BackgroundCardiac arrest remains a global health issue with limited data on long-term outcomes, particularly regarding recurrent cardiovascular events in patients surviving out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. (OHCA). We aimed to describe the long-term occurrence of major cardiac event defined by hospital admission for cardiovascular events or death in OHCA hospital survivors, whichever came first. Our secondary objective were to assess separately occurrence of hospital admission and death, and to identify the factors associated with major event occurrence. We hypothesized that patients surviving an OHCA has a protracted increased risk of cardiovascular events, due to both presence of the baseline conditions that lead to OHCA, and to the cardiovascular consequences of OHCA induced acute ischemia-reperfusion.MethodsConsecutive OHCA patients from three hospitals of Sudden Death Expertise Center (SDEC) Registry, discharged alive from 2011 to 2015 were included. Long-term follow-up data were obtained using national inter-regime health insurance information system (SNIIRAM) database and the national French death registry. The primary endpoint was occurrence of a major event defined by hospital admission for cardiovascular events and death, whichever came first during the follow-up. The starting point of the time-to-event analysis was the date of hospital discharge. The follow-up was censored on the date of the first event. For patients without event, follow-up was censored on the date of December, 29th, 2016.ResultsA total of 306 patients (mean age 57; 77% male) were analyzed and followed over a median follow-up of 3 years for hospital admission for cardiovascular event and 6 years for survival. During this period, 38% patients presented a major event. Hospital admission for cardiovascular events mostly occurred during the first year after the OHCA whereas death occurred more linearly during the all period. A previous history of chronic heart failure and coronary artery disease were independently associated with the occurrence of major event (HR 1.75, 95%CI[1.06-2.88] and HR 1.70, 95%CI[1.11-2.61], respectively), whereas post-resuscitation myocardial dysfunction, cardiogenic shock and cardiologic cause of cardiac arrest did not.ConclusionSurvivors from OHCA must to be considered at high risk of cardiovascular event occurrence whatever the etiology, mainly during the first year following the cardiac arrest and should require closed monitoring.

Project description:BackgroundMost studies on out-of-hospital cardiac arrest have focused on immediate survival. However, little is known about long-term outcomes and resource use among survivors.Methods and resultsWithin the national CARES registry, we identified 16 206 adults 65 years or older with an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest between 2005 and 2010. Among 1127 patients who were discharged alive, we evaluated whether 1-year mortality, cumulative readmission incidence, and follow-up inpatient costs differed according to patients' race, sex, initial cardiac arrest rhythm, bystander delivery of cardiopulmonary resuscitation, discharge neurological status, and functional status (hospital discharge disposition). Overall 1-year mortality after hospital discharge was 31.8%. Among survivors, there were no long-term mortality differences by sex, race, or initial cardiac arrest rhythm, but worse functional status and severe neurological disability at discharge were associated with higher mortality. Moreover, compared with first responders, cardiopulmonary resuscitation delivered by bystanders was associated with 23% lower mortality (hazard ratio 0.77 [confidence interval 0.58-1.02]). Besides mortality, 638 (56.6%) patients were readmitted within the first year, and the cumulative readmission incidence was 197 per 100 patient-years. Mean 1-year inpatient costs were $23 765±41 002. Younger age, black race, severe neurological disability at discharge, and hospital disposition to a skilled nursing or rehabilitation facility were each associated with higher 1-year inpatient costs (P for all <0.05).ConclusionAmong elderly survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, nearly 1 in 3 patients die within the first year. Long-term mortality and inpatient costs differed substantially by certain demographic factors, whether cardiopulmonary resuscitation was initiated by a bystander, discharge neurological status, and hospital disposition.

Project description:BackgroundOut-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a major public health problem and a leading cause of death worldwide. Previous studies have focused on improving the survival of people who have had OHCA by analyzing short-term survival outcomes, such as the return of spontaneous circulation, 30-day survival, and survival to discharge. Research has been conducted on prehospital prognostic factors to improve the survival of patients with OHCA, among which the association between socioeconomic status (SES) and survival has been reported. SES could affect bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation rates and whether OHCA is witnessed, and low cardiopulmonary resuscitation education rates are associated with low SES. It has been reported that areas with high SES have shorter hospital transfer times and more public defibrillators per person. Previous studies have shown the impact of SES disparities on the short-term survival of patients with OHCA. However, understanding the impact of SES on the long-term prognosis of OHCA survivors remains limited. As long-term outcomes are more indicative of a patient's ongoing health care needs and the burden on public health than short-term outcomes, understanding the long-term prognosis of OHCA survivors is important.ObjectiveThis study aimed to identify whether SES influenced the long-term outcomes of OHCA.MethodsUsing health claims data obtained from the National Health Insurance (NHI) service in Korea, we included OHCA survivors who were hospitalized between January 2005 and December 2015. The patients were divided into 2 groups: NHI and Medical Aid (MA) groups, with the MA group defined as having a low SES. Cumulative mortality was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method, and a Cox proportional hazards model was used to evaluate the impact of SES on long-term mortality. A subgroup analysis was performed based on whether cardiac procedures were performed.ResultsWe followed 4873 OHCA survivors for up to 14 years (median of 3.3 years). The Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed that the MA group had a significantly decreased long-term survival rate compared to the NHI group. With an adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) of 1.52 (95% CI 1.35-1.72), low SES was associated with increased long-term mortality. The overall mortality rate of the patients who underwent cardiac procedures in the MA group was significantly higher than that of the NHI group (aHR 1.72, 95% CI 1.05-2.82). The overall mortality rate of patients without cardiac procedures was also increased in the MA group compared to the NHI group (aHR 1.39, 95% CI 1.23-1.58).ConclusionsOHCA survivors with low SES had an increased risk of poor long-term outcomes compared with those with higher SES. OHCA survivors with low SES who have undergone cardiac procedures need considerable care for long-term survival.

Project description:ImportanceData on long-term survival beyond 12 months after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) of a presumed cardiac cause are scarce.ObjectiveTo investigate the long-term survival of adult patients after surviving the initial hospital stay for an OHCA.Data sourcesA systematic search of the EMBASE and MEDLINE databases was performed from database inception to March 25, 2021.Study selectionClinical studies reporting long-term survival after OHCA were selected based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria according to a preregistered study protocol.Data extraction and synthesisPatient data were reconstructed from Kaplan-Meier curves using an iterative algorithm and then pooled to generate survival curves. As a separate analysis, an aggregate data meta-analysis was performed.Main outcomes and measuresThe primary outcome was long-term survival (>12 months) after OHCA for patients surviving to hospital discharge or 30 days after OHCA.ResultsThe search identified 15 347 reports, of which 21 studies (11 800 patients) were included in the Kaplan-Meier-based meta-analysis and 33 studies (16 933 patients) in an aggregate data meta-analysis. In the Kaplan-Meier-based analysis, the median survival time for patients surviving to hospital discharge was 5.0 years (IQR, 2.3-7.9 years). The estimated survival rates were 82.8% (95% CI, 81.9%-83.7%) at 3 years, 77.0% (95% CI, 75.9%-78.0%) at 5 years, 63.9% (95% CI, 62.3%-65.4%) at 10 years, and 57.5% (95% CI, 54.8%-60.1%) at 15 years. Compared with patients with a nonshockable initial rhythm, patients with a shockable rhythm had a lower risk of long-term mortality (hazard ratio, 0.30; 95% CI, 0.23-0.39; P < .001). Different analyses, including an aggregate data meta-analysis, confirmed these results.Conclusions and relevanceIn this comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis, long-term survival after 10 years in patients surviving the initial hospital stay after OHCA was between 62% and 64%. Additional research is needed to understand and improve the long-term survival in this vulnerable patient population.

Project description:AimsThe purpose of this study was to determine whether implementation of public access defibrillation (PAD) improves the outcome after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in school-age children at national level.Methods and resultsWe conducted a prospective, nationwide, population-based Japanese Utstein registry study of consecutive OHCA cases in elementary and middle school children (7-15 years of age) who had a bystander-witnessed arrest of presumed cardiac origin during 2005-09 and received pre-hospital resuscitation by emergency responders. The primary endpoint was a favourable neurological outcome 1 month after an arrest. Among 230 eligible patients enrolled, 128 had ventricular fibrillation (VF) as an initial rhythm. Among these 128 patients, 29 (23%) children received a first shock by a bystander. Among these 29 patients, the proportion of the favourable neurological outcome after OHCA was 55%. During the study period, the proportion of patients initially shocked by a bystander among eligible patients increased from 2 to 21% (P = 0.002 for trend). The proportion of patients with a favourable neurological outcome after OHCA increased from 12 to 36% overall (P = 0.006). The collapse to defibrillation time was shorter in bystander-initiated defibrillation when compared with defibrillation by emergency responders (3.3 ± 3.7 vs. 12.9 ± 5.8 min, P < 0.001), and was independently associated with a favourable neurological outcome after OHCA [P = 0.03, odds ratio (OR) per 1 min increase, 0.90 (95% confidence interval 0.82-0.99)]. A non-family member's witness was independently associated with VF as the initial rhythm [P < 0.001, OR 4.03 (2.08-7.80)].ConclusionImplementation of PAD improved the outcome after OHCA in school-age children at national level in Japan.

Project description:Study objectiveIt is unknown whether regionalization of postarrest care by interfacility transfer to cardiac arrest receiving centers reduces mortality. We seek to evaluate whether treatment at a cardiac arrest receiving center, whether by direct transport or early interfacility transfer, is independently associated with long-term outcome.MethodsWe performed a retrospective cohort study including adults resuscitated from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in southwestern Pennsylvania and neighboring Ohio, West Virginia, and Maryland, which includes approximately 5.7 million residents in urban, suburban, and rural counties. Patients were treated by 1 of 78 ground emergency medical services agencies or 2 air medical transport agencies between January 1, 2010, and November 30, 2014. Our primary exposures of interest were interfacility transfer to a cardiac arrest receiving center within 24 hours of arrest or any treatment at a cardiac arrest receiving center regardless of transfer status. Our primary outcome was vital status, assessed through December 31, 2014, with National Death Index records. We used unadjusted and adjusted survival analyses to test the independent association of cardiac arrest receiving center care, whether through direct or interfacility transport, on mortality.ResultsOverall, 5,217 cases were observed for 3,629 person-years, with 3,865 total deaths. Most patients (82%) were treated at 42 non-cardiac arrest receiving centers with median annual volume of 17 cases (interquartile range 1 to 53 cases per center annually), whereas 18% were cared for at cardiac arrest receiving centers receiving at least 1 interfacility transfer per month. In adjusted models, treatment at a cardiac arrest receiving center was independently associated with reduced hazard of death compared with treatment at a non-cardiac arrest receiving center (adjusted hazard ratio 0.84; 95% confidence interval 0.74 to 0.94). These effects were unchanged when analysis was restricted to patients brought from the scene to the treating hospital. No other hospital characteristic, including total out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patient volume and cardiac catheterization capabilities, independently predicted outcome.ConclusionBoth early interfacility transfer to a cardiac arrest receiving center and direct transport to a cardiac arrest receiving center from the scene are independently associated with reduced mortality.

Project description:Background: Early prognostication is a major challenge after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Aims: We hypothesized that a genome-wide analysis of blood gene expression could offer new prognostic tools and lines of research. Methods: Sixty-nine patients were enrolled from an ancillary study of the clinical trial NCT00999583 that tested the effect of erythropoietin (EPO) after OHCA. Blood samples were collected in comatose survivors of OHCA at hospital admission and 1 and 3 days after resuscitation. Gene expression profiles were analyzed (Illumina HumanHT-12 V4 BeadChip; >34,000 genes). Patients were classified into two categories representing neurologically favorable outcome (Cerebral Performance Category [CPC] = 1-2) vs unfavorable outcome (CPC>2) at Day 60 after OHCA. Differential and functional enrichment analyses were performed to compare transcriptomic profiles between these two categories. Results: Among the 69 enrolled patients, 33 and 36 patients were treated or not by EPO, respectively. Among them, 42% had a favorable neurological outcome in both groups. EPO did not affect the transcriptomic response at Day-0 and 1 after OHCA. In contrast, 76 transcripts differed at Day-0 between patients with unfavorable vs favorable neurological outcome. This signature persisted at Day-1 after OHCA. Functional enrichment analysis revealed a down-regulation of adaptive immunity with concomitant up-regulation of innate immunity and inflammation in patients with unfavorable vs favorable neurological outcome. The transcription of many genes of the HLA family was decreased in patients with unfavorable vs favorable neurological outcome. Concomitantly, neutrophil activation and inflammation were observed. Up-stream regulators analysis showed the implication of numerous factors involved in cell cycle and damages. A logistic regression including a set of genes allowed a reliable prediction of the clinical outcomes (Specificity=88%; Hit Rate=83%). Conclusions: A transcriptomic signature involving a counterbalance between adaptive and innate immune responses is able to predict neurological outcome very early after hospital admission after OHCA. This deserves confirmation in a larger population.

Project description:ImportanceThe recent American Heart Association guidelines added a sixth link in the chain of survival highlighting recovery and emphasized the importance of psychiatric outcome and recovery for survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The prevalence of psychiatric disorders among this population was higher than that in the general population.ObjectiveTo examine the prevalence of depression or anxiety and the association of these conditions with long-term mortality among individuals who survive OHCA.Design, setting, and participantsA longitudinal population-based cohort study was conducted to analyze long-term prognosis in patients hospitalized for OHCA between January 1, 2005, and December 31, 2015, who survived for 1 year or longer. Patients with cardiac arrest due to traumatic or nonmedical causes, such as injuries, poisoning, asphyxiation, burns, or anaphylaxis, were excluded. Data were extracted on depression or anxiety diagnoses in this population within 1 year from the database of the Korean National Health Insurance Service and analyzed April 7, 2022, and reanalyzed January 19 to 20, 2023.Main outcomes and measuresFollow-up data were obtained for up to 14 years, and the primary outcome was long-term cumulative mortality. Long-term mortality among patients with and without a diagnosis of depression or anxiety were evaluated.ResultsThe analysis included 2373 patients; 1860 (78.4%) were male, and the median age was 53.0 (IQR, 44.0-62.0) years . A total of 397 (16.7%) patients were diagnosed with depression or anxiety, 251 (10.6%) were diagnosed with depression, and 227 (9.6%) were diagnosed with anxiety. The incidence of long-term mortality was significantly higher in the group diagnosed with depression or anxiety than in the group without depression or anxiety (141 of 397 [35.5%] vs 534 of 1976 [27.0%]; P = .001). With multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis, the adjusted hazard ratio of long-term mortality for total patients with depression or anxiety was 1.41 (95% CI, 1.17-1.70); depression, 1.44 (95% CI, 1.16-1.79); and anxiety, 1.20 (95% CI, 0.94-1.53).Conclusions and relevanceIn this study, among the patients who experienced OHCA, those diagnosed with depression or anxiety had higher long-term mortality rates than those without depression or anxiety. These findings suggest that psychological and neurologic rehabilitation intervention for survivors of OHCA may be needed to improve long-term survival.

Project description:To analyze functional performance measures collected prospectively during the conduct of a clinical trial that enrolled children (up to age 18 yr old), resuscitated after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, who were at high risk of poor outcomes.Children with Glasgow Motor Scale score less than 5, within 6 hours of resuscitation, were enrolled in a clinical trial that compared two targeted temperature management interventions (THAPCA-OH, NCT00878644). The primary outcome, 12-month survival with Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scale, second edition, score greater or equal to 70, did not differ between groups.Thirty-eight North American PICUs.Two hundred ninety-five children were enrolled; 270 of 295 had baseline Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scale, second edition, scores greater or equal to 70; 87 of 270 survived 1 year.Targeted temperatures were 33.0°C and 36.8°C for hypothermia and normothermia groups.Baseline measures included Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scale, second edition, Pediatric Cerebral Performance Category, and Pediatric Overall Performance Category. Pediatric Cerebral Performance Category and Pediatric Overall Performance Category were rescored at hospital discharges; all three were scored at 3 and 12 months. In survivors with baseline Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scale, second edition scores greater or equal to 70, we evaluated relationships of hospital discharge Pediatric Cerebral Performance Category with 3- and 12-month scores and between 3- and 12-month Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scale, second edition, scores. Hospital discharge Pediatric Cerebral Performance Category scores strongly predicted 3- and 12-month Pediatric Cerebral Performance Category (r = 0.82 and 0.79; p < 0.0001) and Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scale, second edition, scores (r = -0.81 and -0.77; p < 0.0001). Three-month Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scale, second edition, scores strongly predicted 12-month performance (r = 0.95; p < 0.0001). Hypothermia treatment did not alter these relationships.In comatose children, with Glasgow Motor Scale score less than 5 in the initial hours after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest resuscitation, function scores at hospital discharge and at 3 months predicted 12-month performance well in the majority of survivors.
