Abstract
INTRODUCTION The widespread incorporation of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest requires the delivery of effective and high-quality chest compressions prior to the initiation of ECPR. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of mechanical and manual chest compressions until the initiation of ECPR. METHODS This study was a secondary analysis of the Japanese retrospective multicenter registry "Study of Advanced Life Support for Ventricular Fibrillation by Extracorporeal Circulation II (SAVE-J II)". Patients were divided into two groups, one receiving mechanical chest compressions and the other receiving manual chest compressions. The primary outcome measure was mortality at hospital discharge, while the secondary outcome was the cerebral performance category (CPC) score at discharge. RESULTS Of the 2157 patients enrolled in the SAVE-J II trial, 453 patients (329 in the manual compression group and 124 in the mechanical compression group) were included in the final analysis. Univariate analysis showed a significantly higher mortality rate at hospital discharge in the mechanical compression group compared to the manual compression group (odds ratio [95% CI] = 2.32 [1.34-4.02], p = 0.0026). Multivariate analysis showed that mechanical chest compressions were an independent factor associated with increased mortality at hospital discharge (adjusted odds ratio [95% CI] = 2.00 [1.11-3.58], p = 0.02). There was no statistically significant difference in CPC between the two groups. CONCLUSION For patients with out-of-hospital cardiopulmonary arrest who require ECPR, extreme caution should be used when performing mechanical chest compressions.

Low-flow time and outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients treated with extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Am J Emerg Med 2024; 75:37-41. [PMID: 37897919 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajem.2023.10.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2023] [Revised: 09/07/2023] [Accepted: 10/06/2023] [Indexed: 10/30/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION In out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients with extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR), the association between low-flow time, the duration between the initiation of conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation and the establishment of ECPR, and outcomes has not been clearly determined. METHODS This was a secondary analysis of the retrospective multicenter registry in Japan. This study registered patients ≥18 years old who were admitted to the emergency department for OHCA and underwent ECPR between January, 2013 and December, 2018. Low-flow time was defined as the time from initiation of conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation to the establishment of ECPR, and patients were categorized into two groups according to the visualized association of the restricted cubic spline curve. The primary outcome was survival discharge. Cubic spline analyses and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to assess the nonlinear associations between low-flow time and outcomes. RESULTS A total of 1,524 patients were included. The median age was 60 years, and the median low-flow time was 52 (42-53) mins. The overall survival at hospital discharge and favorable neurological outcomes were 27.8% and 14.2%, respectively. The cubic spline analysis showed a decreased trend of survival discharge rates and favorable neurological outcomes with shorter low-flow time between 20 and 60 mins, with little change between the following 60 and 80 mins. The multivariable logistic regression analyses showed that patients with long low-flow time (>40 mins) compared to those with short low-flow time (0-40 mins) had significantly worse survival (adjusted odds ratio 0.42; 95% confidence intervals, 0.31-0.57) and neurological outcomes (0.65; 0.45-0.95, respectively). CONCLUSIONS The survival discharge and neurological outcomes of patients with low-flow time shorter than 40 min are better than those of patients with longer low-flow time.

Abstract
Background Open pneumothorax with chest wall deficit is a rare chest trauma that is serious and can lead to severe respiratory failure; however, it is a potentially lifesaving injury if utilized appropriately. Case presentation Herein, we report a case of an open pneumothorax with extensive chest wall deficit due to falling from a height and highlight the importance of appropriate evaluation and intervention. The patient was a Japanese man in his 50 s who fell from the 6th floor to the 3rd floor while working at a height. The left chest wall was punctured due to injury, the thoracic cavity was open as if a left anterolateral thoracotomy had been performed, and the left lung had prolapsed from the thoracic cavity to the outside. In our emergency department, tracheal intubation with a double lumen tube for differential positive pressure ventilation and a right thoracic drain were inserted, and an emergency operation was started immediately. A pulmonary suture for lung injury and closure of the left thorax were performed during the surgery. The defect was closed with the remaining tissue, but the anterior thoracic skin with poor blood flow was necrotic, so debridement was undertaken. After his general condition was improved, pedicled latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap was implanted. He was discharged home on the 63rd hospital day. Conclusions Although open pneumothorax is rare and sometimes presents lurid findings, we highlighted that it is important to quickly assess the life-threatening organ injury, perform positive pressure ventilation by tracheal intubation, thoracic drainage, and wound closure simultaneously respond calmly as a team.

Abstract
There are three methods of aortic occlusion; RTACC (resuscitative thoracotomy with aortic cross-clamp), abdominal aortic compression/occlusion after laparotomy, and REBOA. It is essential to understand the characteristics of each methods and use them appropriately according to the situation or in combination. RTACC is characterized by its rapidity and certainty, but highly invasive. Abdominal aortic compression/occlusion is beneficial because hemostasis after laparotomy can be performed simultaneusly. Advantages of REBOA compared to RTACC are minimaly-invasiveness and safety, and disadvantages are rapidity and certainty. However, it is not necessary to discuss the superiority or inferiority of RTACC and REBOA. The appropriate determination of a combination of these tactics will increase the range of strategies. In particular, RTACC should be performed promptly for impending cardiac arrest and early conversion to REBOA can be helpful regarding to prevention of hypothermia and reduction of chest wall bleeding (To "REBOA & RTACC" instead of "REBOA vs RTACC").

Abstract
Abstract
Arterial access is essential in resuscitation of trauma and hemorrhagic shock patients and can be effectively used for rapid endovascular treatment such as resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) and interventional radiology (IVR), continuous invasive hemodynamic monitoring, and frequent blood tests. In the REBOA procedure, obtaining an arterial access is the first and most critical step. Arterial access can be obtained in three ways: i) blind/landmark technique, ii) ultrasound-guided technique, or iii) surgical cutdown technique. Regardless of which technique is chosen, it is crucial to recognize external landmarks before implementing any technique.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A high-grade pancreatic injury is a life-threatening injury that is associated with high mortality and morbidity. It is currently unclear which treatment strategy results in good clinical outcomes. CASE PRESENTATION A 23-year-old Japanese woman sustained severe injury in a motor vehicle accident. Abdominal computed tomography revealed severe pancreatic head injury with extravasation of contrast media. Since it was not possible to insert an endoscopic pancreatic stenting tube into the main pancreatic duct, damage control surgery was performed. On day 3, we could insert the endoscopic pancreatic stenting tube from the ampulla of Vater and an endoscopic nasopancreatic drainage tube in the distal pancreatic duct from the accessory ampulla before the second operation. Drainage tubes were placed around the pancreatic head in the second operation. The endoscopic nasopancreatic drainage tube tube was converted to endoscopic pancreatic stenting tube on day 9. On day 51, the patient was discharged on foot from our hospital without serious complications. CONCLUSION Early and effective hemostasis, staged pancreatic duct drainage with stenting, and surgical external drainage around the pancreas in combination with an endoscopic procedure and damage control surgery were considered appropriate therapeutic strategy for high-grade pancreatic injury.

Abstract
Background The mortality rate is very high for patients with severe multiple trauma with massive pulmonary contusion containing intrapulmonary hemorrhage. Multiple treatment modalities are needed not only for a prevention of cardiac arrest and quick hemostasis against multiple injuries, but also for recovery of oxygenation to save the patient’s life. Case presentation A 48-year-old Japanese woman fell down stairs that had a height of approximately 4 m. An X-ray showed pneumothorax, pulmonary contusion in her right lung, and an unstable pelvic fracture. A chest drain was inserted and preperitoneal pelvic packing was performed to control bleeding, performing resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta. A computed tomography scan revealed massive lung contusion in the lower lobe of her right lung, pelvic fractures, and multiple fractures and hematoma in other areas. An emergency thoracotomy was performed, and then we performed wide wedge resection of the injured lung, clamping proximal to suture lines with two Satinsky blood vessel clamps. The vessel clamps were left in the right thoracic cavity. The other hemorrhagic areas were embolized by transcatheter arterial embolization. However, since her respiratory functions deteriorated in the intensive care unit, veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation was used for lung assist. Planned reoperation under veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation was performed on day 2. Since her respiratory condition improved gradually, the veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation circuit was withdrawn on day 7. She was transferred to the psychiatric ward of our hospital on day 75. Conclusion Utilizing multiple treatment modalities such as resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta, damage control surgery, transcatheter arterial embolization, and veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation with appropriate timing saves a patient with severe polytrauma with massive pulmonary contusion including intrapulmonary hemorrhage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) therapy was introduced nearly 300 years ago. However, its effect on thrombus formation is unclear. This may be because platelet and coagulation functions are unstable, yielding variable results; hence, accurate measurement is difficult. Our study aimed to analyze changes in thrombus formation before and after HBO2 therapy by using a total thrombus formation analysis system (TTAS). METHODS Six patients were prescribed HBO2 therapy for skin and soft tissue ulcers, and necrotic fasciitis. Blood samples were collected immediately before and after treatment. Then samples were put into a reservoir that connected to AR-chip to assess changes in the thrombus formation ability of both platelets and coagulation factors. We examined the differences in the thrombus formation ability using T-TAS. Time until the onset of white thrombus formation (T10) and complete occlusion of the capillary (T80) were analyzed by a two-way repeated measure analysis of variance (ANOVA). RESULTS The duration to pressure increase of samples after HBO2 therapy was longer than the duration before HBO2 therapy (p<0.05). This suggests decreased clot adhesiveness to the inner surface of the simulated blood vessel and reduced clot formation ability. CONCLUSIONS The results for T10 and T80 suggest that HBO2 therapy reduced thrombus formation ability in the enrolled patients. We believe that T-TAS is a promising method to predict the efficacy of HBO2 therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to identify a useful biomarker to predict the efficacy of polymyxin B-immobilized fiber direct hemoperfusion (PMX-DHP) in patients with septic shock. METHODS The 44 patients included in this study were divided into two groups. Group A had an increase in systolic blood pressure (SBP) over 30 mmHg after PMX-DHP treatment. Group B had an increase in SBP less than 30 mmHg after PMX-DHP treatment. We evaluated the clinical characteristics and demographics of both groups. We also assessed whether the cause of sepsis affected the efficacy of PMX-DHP and compared the prognosis of both groups. Finally, we investigated whether there were any significant differences in the levels of sepsis-related biomarkers, including sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), between both groups before PMX-DHP in an effort to identify a biomarker that could predict the efficacy of PMX-DHP. RESULTS PMX-DHP significantly increased SBP regardless of the cause of sepsis. Although there was some tendency, PMX-DHP did not significantly improve the prognosis of effective cases in comparison with non-effective cases, probably because of the limited number of patients included. Among the sepsis-related biomarkers, only S1P values were significantly different between the two groups before PMX-DHP, and S1P levels were significantly increased after treatment in the effective cases. CONCLUSION S1P levels prior to PMX-DHP can be used to predict its efficacy. In addition, continuous monitoring of S1P levels can indicate the effectiveness of PMX-DHP in patients with septic shock.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and complications of recombinant antithrombin (rAT) supplementation for adult patients with disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) compared with conventional plasma derived AT (pAT) treatment in the intensive care unit. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study was performed in a single national university hospital in Japan. Adult patients from April 2015 to March 2016 with DIC were divided into two groups based on the type of AT agent used: the pAT group (n=24) and the rAT group (n=21). Patient demographics, medical history, diagnosis, blood tests, various clinical scores, AT activity, complications, and clinical outcome were collected and analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS Significantly higher SIRS and APACHEII scores were confirmed in the rAT group than the pAT group. The initial dose of AT was significantly higher in the rAT group than in the pAT group. ATIII values before and after initial supplementation and during their ten-day clinical course were statistically similar between two groups. During the same period, 10 bleeding adverse events were found and there was no significant difference between both groups. Significantly more cases of the rAT group were administered with recombinant thrombomodulin concomitantly than those of the pAT group. Despite significantly more severe patients in rAT group, the clinical outcomes were the same in each group. CONCLUSIONS Compared with pAT, the supplementation of rAT indicates clinical effectiveness without increasing the risk of bleeding complications in adult DIC patients with low AT activity.

Abstract
Recently, serum lactate level rather than systolic blood pressure (sBP) has been widely used to diagnose peripheral circulatory insufficiency, which often leads to coagulopathy with systemic inflammation. However, most of the reported disorders were examined by plasma samples. The aim of this study was to evaluate the utility of serum lactate for detecting coagulopathy with circulatory failure by using thromboelastometry as well as standard coagulation test. 192 adult patients transported to our hospital between January 2013 and September 2014 were enrolled in this retrospective study. The sBP, serum lactate and thromboelastometry (ROTEM(®)) were measured in these patients in the emergency department. All patients were divided into three groups based on serum lactate levels: (1) the severe group (≥4 mmol/L, n=41); (2) the mild group (<4 mmol/L and ≥2 mmol/L, n=59); and (3) the normal group (<2 mmol/L, n=92). Patients in the severe group were of a significantly younger age but had lower pH and poor outcome. SBP was significantly lower and heart rates were higher in the severe group than in the other groups. Prolonged PT-INR and APTT were statistically confirmed in the severe group. ROTEM findings in the severe group revealed significantly lower alpha angle, shortened Lysis Onset Time and significantly more cases exhibited hyperfibrinolysis. The same analysis with the cut-off level of sBP at 90 mmHg showed no significant difference in ROTEM findings between the two groups. Abnormal serum lactate levels (≥4.0 mmol/L) properly reflected peripheral circulatory insufficiency and were more closely associated with coagulopathy such as hyperfibrinolysis and hypocoagulability than sBP.

Abstract
It is well known that coagulopathy is observed in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Thrombolytic therapy for those patients has been controversial until now. The purpose of this study was to identify a significant predictor for return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) of OHCA patients in the emergency department (ED) using whole blood viscoelastic testing. Adult non-trauma OHCA patients transported to our hospital that underwent thromboelastometry (ROTEM) during cardiopulmonary resuscitation between January 2013 and December 2015 were enrolled in this study. We divided patients into two groups based on the presence or absence of ROSC, and performed statistical analysis utilizing patient characteristics, prehospital data, laboratory data, and ROTEM data. Seventy-five patients were enrolled. The ROSC group and non-ROSC group included 23 and 52 patients, respectively. The logistic regression analysis, utilizing significant parameters by univariate analysis, demonstrated that lactate level [odds ratio (OR) 0.880, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.785-0.986, p = 0.028] and A30 of EXTEM test [OR 1.039, 95% CI 1.010-1.070, p = 0.009] were independent risk factors for ROSC. The cut-off values of lactate and A30 in EXTEM were 12.0 mmol/L and A 48.0 mm, respectively. We defined a positive prediction for ROSC if the patient presented lower lactate level (<12.0 mmol/L) and higher A30 of EXTEM (≥48.0 mm) with high specificity (94.7%) and accuracy (75.0%). The present study showed that lactate level and ROTEM parameter of clot firmness were reliable predictors of ROSC in the ED for adult patients with OHCA.

Abstract
Purpose The diagnostic criteria for disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) established by the Japanese Association for Acute Medicine (JAAM) is able to diagnose DIC accurately and promptly. The aim of this retrospective study is to evaluate the degree of association between each parameter of JAAM DIC criteria and the diagnosis of trauma induced DIC (T-DIC) utilizing thromboelastometry (ROTEM). Methods Trauma patients transported to our hospital with ROTEM performed in the emergency department between January 2013 and December 2015 were enrolled in this study. We evaluated (1) the characteristics of T-DIC, (2) the relationships between T-DIC and each parameter of the JAAM DIC criteria and (3) the diagnostic accuracies of each parameter for T-DIC by statistical measurement. Results All 72 patients (21 T-DIC and 51 control) were included in primary analysis. T-DIC was significantly related to younger age, more severe trauma scores, more cases of massive transfusions, and remarkable coagulation abnormality detected by standard coagulation tests. In the cases of T-DIC, ROTEM showed longer clotting time, lower acceleration, lower clot firmness, and inhibited fibrinolysis in EXTEM/INTEM. Within the JAAM DIC score, PT-INR ≥1.2 was the most accurate factor for T-DIC diagnosis; sensitivity 60.0%, specificity 100.0%, and accuracy 88.7%. PT-INR ≥1.2 was statistically correlated with the JAAM DIC score (p < 0.001, r = 0.709). The univariate analysis based on 1.2 of PT-INR indicated statistical differences in most categories of ROTEM, which is similar to analysis performed for the presence and absence of T-DIC. Conclusions Among JAAM DIC criteria, the PT-INR ≥1.2 was the most accurate factor for both the diagnosis of T-DIC and the evaluation of its severity.
