Abstract
PURPOSE Mild hypercapnia did not improve neurological outcomes for resuscitated out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients in the Targeted Therapeutic Mild Hypercapnia After Resuscitated Cardiac Arrest (TAME) trial. However, the effects of hypercapnic acidosis on myocardial injury in patients with cardiac arrest is unexplored. We investigated whether mild hypercapnia compared to normocapnia, following emergency coronary intervention, increased myocardial injury in comatose OHCA-patients with AMI. METHODS Single-centre, prospective, pre-planned sub-study of the TAME trial. Patients were randomised to targeted mild hypercapnia (PaCO2 = 6.7-7.3 kPa) or normocapnia (PaCO2 = 4.7-6.0 kPa) for 24 h. Myocardial injury was assessed with high-sensitive cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) measured at baseline, 24, 48 and 72 h. Haemodynamics were assessed with right heart catheterisation and blood-gas analyses every 4th hour for 48 h. RESULTS We included 125 OHCA-patients. 57 (46%) had an AMI, with 31 and 26 patients randomised to hypercapnia and normocapnia, respectively. Median peak hs-cTnT in AMI-patients was 58% lower in the hypercapnia-group: 2136 (IQR: 861-4462) versus 5165 ng/L (IQR: 2773-7519), p = 0.007. Lower average area under the hs-cTnT curve was observed in the hypercapnia-group: 2353 (95% CI 1388-3319) versus 4953 ng/L (95% CI 3566-6341), P-group = 0.002. Hypercapnia was associated with increased cardiac power output (CPO) and lower lactate levels in patients with AMI (P-group < 0.05). hs-cTnT, lactate and CPO were not significantly different between intervention groups in OHCA-patients without AMI (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Mild hypercapnia was not associated with increased myocardial injury in resuscitated OHCA-patients. In AMI-patients, mild hypercapnia was associated with lower hs-cTnT and lactate, and improved cardiac performance. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT03114033.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) continues to be associated with high morbidity and mortality. The objective of this study was to study the association of arterial carbon dioxide tension (PaCO2) on survival to discharge and favorable neurologic outcomes in adults with IHCA. METHODS The study population included 353 adults who underwent resuscitation from 2011 to 2019 for IHCA at an academic tertiary care medical center with arterial blood gas testing done within 24 hours of arrest. Outcomes of interest included survival to discharge and favorable neurologic outcome, defined as Glasgow outcome score of 4-5. RESULTS Of the 353 patients studied, PaCO2 classification included: hypocapnia (PaCO2 <35 mm Hg, n = 89), normocapnia (PaCO2 35-45 mm Hg, n = 151), and hypercapnia (PaCO2 >45 mm Hg, n = 113). Hypercapnic patients were further divided into mild (45 mm Hg < PaCO2 ≤55 mm Hg, n = 62) and moderate/severe hypercapnia (PaCO2 > 55 mm Hg, n = 51). Patients with normocapnia had the highest rates of survival to hospital discharge (52.3% vs. 32.6% vs. 30.1%, P < 0.001) and favorable neurologic outcome (35.8% vs. 25.8% vs. 17.9%, P = 0.005) compared those with hypocapnia and hypercapnia respectively. In multivariable analysis, compared to normocapnia, hypocapnia [odds ratio (OR), 2.06; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.15-3.70] and hypercapnia (OR, 2.67; 95% CI, 1.53-4.66) were both found to be independently associated with higher rates of in-hospital mortality. Compared to normocapnia, while mild hypercapnia (OR, 2.53; 95% CI, 1.29-4.97) and moderate/severe hypercapnia (OR, 2.86; 95% CI, 1.35-6.06) were both independently associated with higher in-hospital mortality compared to normocapnia, moderate/severe hypercapnia was also independently associated with lower rates of favorable neurologic outcome (OR, 0.28; 95% CI, 0.11-0.73), while mild hypercapnia was not. CONCLUSIONS In this prospective registry of adults with IHCA, hypercapnia noted within 24 hours after arrest was independently associated with lower rates of survival to discharge and favorable neurologic outcome.

Cerebral perfusion and metabolism with mild hypercapnia vs. normocapnia in a porcine post cardiac arrest model with and without targeted temperature management. Resusc Plus 2024; 18:100604. [PMID: 38510376 PMCID: PMC10950799 DOI: 10.1016/j.resplu.2024.100604] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2023] [Revised: 02/15/2024] [Accepted: 03/03/2024] [Indexed: 03/22/2024] Open
Abstract
Aim To determine whether targeting mild hypercapnia (PaCO2 7 kPa) would yield improved cerebral blood flow and metabolism compared to normocapnia (PaCO2 5 kPa) with and without targeted temperature management to 33 °C (TTM33) in a porcine post-cardiac arrest model. Methods 39 pigs were resuscitated after 10 minutes of cardiac arrest using cardiopulmonary bypass and randomised to TTM33 or no-TTM, and hypercapnia or normocapnia. TTM33 was managed with intravasal cooling. Animals were stabilized for 30 minutes followed by a two-hour intervention period. Hemodynamic parameters were measured continuously, and neuromonitoring included intracranial pressure (ICP), pressure reactivity index, cerebral blood flow, brain-tissue pCO2 and microdialysis. Measurements are reported as proportion of baseline, and areas under the curve during the 120 min intervention period were compared. Results Hypercapnia increased cerebral flow in both TTM33 and no-TTM groups, but also increased ICP (199% vs. 183% of baseline, p = 0.018) and reduced cerebral perfusion pressure (70% vs. 84% of baseline, p < 0.001) in no-TTM animals. Cerebral lactate (196% vs. 297% of baseline, p < 0.001), pyruvate (118% vs. 152% of baseline, p < 0.001), glycerol and lactate/pyruvate ratios were lower with hypercapnia in the TTM33 group, but only pyruvate (133% vs. 150% of baseline, p = 0.002) was lower with hypercapnia among no-TTM animals. Conclusion In this porcine post-arrest model, hypercapnia led to increased cerebral flow both with and without hypothermia, but also increased ICP and reduced cerebral perfusion pressure in no-TTM animals. The effects of hypercapnia were different with and without TTM.(Institutional protocol number: FOTS, id 14931).

Abstract
With the implementation of improved bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation techniques and public-access defibrillation, survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) has increased significantly over the years. Nevertheless, OHCA survivors have residual anoxia/reperfusion brain damage and associated neurological impairment resulting in poor quality of life. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation or targeted temperature management has proven effective in improving post-cardiac arrest (CA) neurological outcomes, yet considering the substantial healthcare costs and resources involved, there is an urgent need for alternative treatment strategies that are crucial to alleviate brain injury and promote recovery of neurological function after CA. In this review, we searched PubMed for the latest preclinical or clinical studies (2016-2023) utilizing gas-mediated, pharmacological, or stem cell-based neuroprotective approaches after CA. Preclinical studies utilizing various gases (nitric oxide, hydrogen, hydrogen sulfide, carbon monoxide, argon, and xenon), pharmacological agents targeting specific CA-related pathophysiology, and stem cells have shown promising results in rodent and porcine models of CA. Although inhaled gases and several pharmacological agents have entered clinical trials, most have failed to demonstrate therapeutic effects in CA patients. To date, stem cell therapies have not been reported in clinical trials for CA. A relatively small number of preclinical stem-cell studies with subtle therapeutic benefits and unelucidated mechanistic explanations warrant the need for further preclinical studies including the improvement of their therapeutic potential. The current state of the field is discussed and the exciting potential of stem-cell therapy to abate neurological dysfunction following CA is highlighted.

Abstract
AIM Hypercapnia may elicit detrimental haemodynamic effects in critically ill patients. We aimed to investigate the consequences of targeted mild hypercapnia versus targeted normocapnia on pulmonary vascular resistance and right ventricular function in patients resuscitated from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). METHODS Pre-planned, single-centre, prospective, sub-study of the Targeted Therapeutic Mild Hypercapnia After Resuscitated Cardiac Arrest (TAME) trial. Patients were randomised to mild hypercapnia (PaCO2 = 6.7-7.3 kPa) or normocapnia (PaCO2 = 4.7-6.0 kPa) for 24 hours. Haemodynamic assessment was performed with right heart catheterisation and serial blood-gas analyses every4th hour for 48 hours. RESULTS We studied 84 patients. Mean pH was 7.24 (95% CI 7.22-7.30) and 7.32 (95% CI 7.31-7.34) with hypercapnia and normocapnia, respectively (P-group < 0.001). Pulmonary vascular resistance index (PVRI), pulmonary artery pulsatility index, and right atrial pressure did not differ between groups (P-group > 0.05). Mean cardiac index was higher with mild hypercapnia (P-group < 0.001): 2.0 (95% CI 1.85-2.1) vs 1.6 (95% CI 1.52-1.76) L/min/m2. Systemic vascular resistance index was 2579 dyne-sec/cm-5/ m2 (95% CI 2356-2830) with hypercapnia, and 3249 dyne-sec/cm-5/ m2 (95% CI 2930-3368) with normocapnia (P-group < 0.001). Stroke volumes (P-group = 0.013) and mixed venous oxygen saturation (P-group < 0.001) were higher in the hypercapnic group. CONCLUSION In resuscitated OHCA patients, targeting mild hypercapnia did not increase PVRI or worsen right ventricular function compared to normocapnia. Mild hypercapnia comparatively improved cardiac performance and mixed venous oxygen saturation.

Abstract
Background Protracted cerebral hypoperfusion following cardiac arrest (CA) may cause poor neurological recovery. We hypothesized that inhaled carbon dioxide (CO2) could augment cerebral blood flow (CBF) and improve post‐CA neurological outcomes. Methods and Results After 6‐minute asphyxia‐induced CA and resuscitation, Wistar rats were randomly allocated to 4 groups (n=25/group) and administered with different inhaled CO2 concentrations, including control (0% CO2), 4% CO2, 8% CO2, and 12% CO2. Invasive monitoring was maintained for 120 minutes, and neurological outcomes were evaluated with neurological function score at 24 hours post‐CA. After the 120‐minute experiment, CBF was 242.3% (median; interquartile range, 221.1%–267.4%) of baseline in the 12% CO2 group while CBF fell to 45.8% (interquartile range, 41.2%–58.1%) of baseline in the control group (P<0.001). CBF increased along with increasing inhaled CO2 concentrations with significant linear trends (P<0.001). At 24 hours post‐CA, compared with the control group (neurological function score, 9 [interquartile range, 8–9]), neurological recovery was significantly better in the 12% CO2 group (neurological function score, 10 [interquartile range, 9.8–10]) (P<0.001) while no survival difference was observed. Brain tissue malondialdehyde (P=0.02) and serum neuron‐specific enolase (P=0.002) and S100β levels (P=0.002) were significantly lower in the 12% CO2 group. TUNEL (terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase–mediated biotin–deoxyuridine triphosphate nick‐end labeling)‐positive cell densities in hippocampal CA1 (P<0.001) and CA3 (P<0.001) regions were also significantly reduced in the 12% CO2 group. Western blotting showed that beclin‐1 (P=0.02), p62 (P=0.02), and LAMP2 (lysosome‐associated membrane protein 2) (P=0.01) expression levels, and the LC3B‐II:LC3B‐I ratio (P=0.02) were significantly lower in the 12% CO2 group. Conclusions Administering inhaled CO2 augmented post‐CA CBF, mitigated oxidative brain injuries, ameliorated neuronal injury, and downregulated apoptosis and autophagy, thereby improving neurological outcomes.

Abstract
Background Systematic reviews have disclosed a lack of clinically relevant cardiac arrest animal models. The aim of this study was to develop a cardiac arrest model in pigs encompassing relevant cardiac arrest characteristics and clinically relevant post‐resuscitation care. Methods and Results We used 2 methods of myocardial infarction in conjunction with cardiac arrest. One group (n=7) had a continuous coronary occlusion, while another group (n=11) underwent balloon‐deflation during arrest and resuscitation with re‐inflation after return of spontaneous circulation. A sham group was included (n=6). All groups underwent 48 hours of intensive care including 24 hours of targeted temperature management. Pigs underwent invasive hemodynamic monitoring. Left ventricular function was assessed by pressure‐volume measurements. The proportion of pigs with return of spontaneous circulation was 43% in the continuous infarction group and 64% in the deflation‐reinflation group. In the continuous infarction group 29% survived the entire protocol while 55% survived in the deflation‐reinflation group. Both cardiac arrest groups needed vasopressor and inotropic support and pressure‐volume measurements showed cardiac dysfunction. During rewarming, systemic vascular resistance decreased in both cardiac arrest groups. Median [25%;75%] troponin‐I 48 hours after return of spontaneous circulation, was 88 973 ng/L [53 124;99 740] in the continuous infarction group, 19 661 ng/L [10 871;23 209] in the deflation‐reinflation group, and 1973 ng/L [1117;1995] in the sham group. Conclusions This article describes a cardiac arrest pig model with myocardial infarction, targeted temperature management, and clinically relevant post‐cardiac arrest care. We demonstrate 2 methods of inducing myocardial ischemia with cardiac arrest resulting in post‐cardiac arrest organ injury including cardiac dysfunction and cerebral injury.

Design, setting, participants and interventions: TAME is a phase 3, multicentre, parallel-group, participant- and outcome assessor-blinded randomised controlled trial that will be conducted in intensive care units in Australia, Canada, Ireland, Saudi Arabia, New Zealand, Scandinavia, Singapore, Central and Western Europe, and the United Kingdom. A total of 1700 comatose adults resuscitated from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest will be randomly assigned to 24 hours of targeted therapeutic mild hypercapnia (arterial carbon dioxide tension 50-55 mmHg) or targeted normocapnia (arterial carbon dioxide tension 35-45 mmHg) in a 1:1 ratio. TAME recruitment began in March 2018 and is expected to be complete in September 2021. Main outcome measures: The primary outcome measure is the proportion of participants with a favourable functional outcome at 6 months. Functional outcomes will be assessed using the Glasgow Outcome Scale-Extended (GOSE); this scale ranges from 1 to 8, with a higher value indicating a better outcome. We will define participants with a GOSE of 5 to 8 as having a favourable functional outcome. Secondary outcomes include 6-month mortality, cognitive function and quality of life. All analyses will be conducted on an intention-to-treat basis. Results and conclusions: TAME will compare the effect of targeted therapeutic mild hypercapnia versus targeted normocapnia on functional outcomes in adults resuscitated from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest who are admitted to an intensive care unit. Trial registration: Australian and New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ACTRN12617000036314p) and ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03114033).

Different Stratification of Physiological Factors Affecting Cerebral Perfusion Pressure in Hypoxic-Ischemic Brain Injury after Cardiac Arrest According to Visible or Non-Visible Primary Brain Injury: A Retrospective Observational Study. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10225385. [PMID: 34830665 PMCID: PMC8625895 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10225385] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2021] [Revised: 11/04/2021] [Accepted: 11/16/2021] [Indexed: 12/05/2022] Open
Abstract
We aimed to explore the stratification of physiological factors affecting cerebral perfusion pressure, including arterial oxygen tension, arterial carbon dioxide tension, mean arterial pressure, intracranial pressure (ICP), and blood-brain barrier (BBB) status, with respect to primary or secondary brain injury (PBI or SBI) after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Among the retrospectively enrolled 97 comatose OHCA survivors undergoing post-cardiac arrest (PCA) care, 46 (47.4%) with already established PBI (high signal intensity (HSI) on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) had higher ICP (p = 0.02) and poorer BBB status (p < 0.01) than the non-HSI group. On subgroup analysis within the non-HSI group to exclude the confounding effect of already established PBI, 40 (78.4%) patients with good neurological outcomes had lower ICP at 24 h (11.0 vs. 16.0 mmHg, p < 0.01) and more stable BBB status (p = 0.17 in pairwise comparison) compared to those with poor neurological outcomes, despite the non-significant differences in other physiological factors. OHCA survivors with HSI on DWI showed significantly higher ICP and poorer BBB status at baseline before PCA care than those without HSI. Despite the negative DWI findings before PCA care, OHCA survivors have a cerebral penumbra at risk for potentially leading the poor neurological outcome from unsuppressed SBI, which may be associated with increased ICP and BBB permeability.

Am J Emerg Med 2021; 44:78-84. [PMID: 33582612 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajem.2021.01.093] [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: 11/03/2020] [Revised: 01/09/2021] [Accepted: 01/31/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The main objective was to evaluate the effect of carbon dioxide on hospital mortality in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and non-COPD patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). METHODS We conducted a retrospective observational study in OHCA patients from the eICU database (eicu-crd.mit.edu). The main exposure was the partial pressure of arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO2). The proportion of time spent (PTS) within four predefined PaCO2 ranges (hypocapnia: <35 mmHg, normocapnia: 35-45 mmHg, mild hypercapnia: 46-55 mmHg, and severe hypercapnia: >55 mmHg) were calculated respectively. The primary outcome was hospital mortality. Multivariable logistic regression models were performed to assess the independent relationship between PTS within PaCO2 range and hospital mortality, and the interaction between PTS within PaCO2 range and COPD was explored. RESULTS A total of 1721 OHCA patients were included, of which 272 (15.8%) had COPD. After adjusted for the confounders, the PTS within mild hypercapnia was associated with lower odds ratio for hospital mortality in COPD patients (OR 0.923; 95% CI 0.857-0.992; P = 0.036); however, it was associated with higher odds ratio for hospital mortality in non-COPD patients (OR 1.053; 95% CI 1.012-1.097; P = 0.012; Pinteraction = 0.008). The PTS within normocapnia was not associated with hospital mortality in COPD patients (OR 0.987; 95% CI 0.914-1.067; P = 0.739); however, it was associated with lower odds ratio for hospital mortality in non-COPD patients (OR 0.944; 95% CI 0.916-0.973; P < 0.001; Pinteraction = 0.113). CONCLUSIONS The effect of carbon dioxide on hospital mortality differed between COPD and non-COPD patients. Mild hypercapnia was associated with increased hospital mortality for non-COPD patients but reduced hospital mortality for COPD patients. It would be reasonable to adjust PaCO2 targets in OHCA patients with COPD.

Abstract
Background Ventilation with the noble gas argon (Ar) has shown neuroprotective and cardioprotective properties in different in vitro and in vivo models. Hence, the neuroprotective effects of Ar were investigated in a severe, preclinically relevant porcine model of cardiac arrest. Methods and Results Cardiac arrest was ischemically induced in 36 pigs and left untreated for 12 minutes before starting cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Animals were randomized to 4‐hour post‐resuscitation ventilation with: 70% nitrogen–30% oxygen (control); 50% Ar–20% nitrogen–30% oxygen (Ar 50%); and 70% Ar–30% oxygen (Ar 70%). Hemodynamic parameters and myocardial function were monitored and serial blood samples taken. Pigs were observed up to 96 hours for survival and neurological recovery. Heart and brain were harvested for histopathology. Ten animals in each group were successfully resuscitated. Ninety‐six‐hour survival was 60%, 70%, and 90%, for the control, Ar 50%, and Ar 70% groups, respectively. In the Ar 50% and Ar 70% groups, 60% and 80%, respectively, achieved good neurological recovery, in contrast to only 30% in the control group (P<0.0001). Histology showed less neuronal degeneration in the cortex (P<0.05) but not in the hippocampus, and less reactive microglia activation in the hippocampus (P=0.007), after Ar compared with control treatment. A lower increase in circulating biomarkers of brain injury, together with less kynurenine pathway activation (P<0.05), were present in Ar‐treated animals compared with controls. Ar 70% pigs also had complete left ventricular function recovery and smaller infarct and cardiac troponin release (P<0.01). Conclusions Post‐resuscitation ventilation with Ar significantly improves neurologic recovery and ameliorates brain injury after cardiac arrest with long no‐flow duration. Benefits are greater after Ar 70% than Ar 50%.

Abstract
Background We sought to evaluate the effect of mild hypercapnia on brain tissue oxygen tension (Pbto2) and diffusion limitation (impaired ability of oxygen extraction) in a porcine post asphyxial cardiac arrest model. Methods In 16 Bama pigs, asphyxial cardiac arrest was induced by endotracheal tube clamping and remained untreated for another 4 min. After return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), animals were randomly assigned to mild hypercapnia (end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2): 45 ~ 50 mmHg) and normocapnia (EtCO2: 35 ~ 40 mmHg) groups for 12 h. Intracranial pressure (ICP), Pbto2, and brain tissue temperature were invasively measured by multimodality monitors. Blood gas analysis, neuron specific enolase (NSE), and S100β were tested at baseline, ROSC 1 h, 6 h, and 12 h. Generalized mixed model with a compound symmetry covariance matrix was used to compare the time-variables of the two groups. Results Twelve (75%) pigs had ROSC and 11 pigs survived for the study period, with 6 pigs in mild hypercapnia group and 5 in the normocapnia group. The mean EtCO2 in the mild hypercapnia was significantly higher than normocapnia group (48 vs 38 mmHg, p < 0.001). Compared with normocapnia, mild hypercapnia group had higher Pbto2 (p < 0.001), slightly higher mean arterial pressure (p = 0.012) and ICP (p = 0.009). There were no differences in cerebral perfusion pressure (p = 0.106), gradient of partial pressure of jugular venous bulb oxygen (Pjvo2) and Pbto2 (p = 0.262), difference of partial pressure of jugular venous CO2 and arterial CO2 (p = 0.546), cardiac output (p = 0.712), NSE (p = 0.822), and S100β (p = 0.759) between the two groups. Conclusions Short term mild hypercapnia post-resuscitation could improve Pbto2. However, no corresponding improvements in the gradient of Pjvo2 to Pbto2 and biomarkers of neurological recovery were observed in the porcine asphyxial cardiac arrest model.

Abstract
Postcardiac arrest myocardial dysfunction (PCAMD) is a frequent complication faced during post-resuscitation care that adversely impacts survival and neurological outcome. Both mechanical and electrical factors contribute to the occurrence of PCAMD. Prearrest ventricular function, the cause of cardiac arrest, global ischemia, resuscitation factors, ischemia/reperfusion injury and post-resuscitation treatments contribute to the severity of PCMAD. The pathophysiology of PCAMD is complex and include myocytes energy failure, impaired contractility, cardiac edema, mitochondrial damage, activation of inflammatory pathways and the coagulation cascade, persistent ischemic injury and myocardial stiffness. Hypotension and low cardiac output with vasopressor/inotropes need are frequent after resuscitation. However, clinical, hemodynamic and laboratory signs of shock are frequently altered by cardiac arrest pathophysiology and post-resuscitation treatment, potentially being misleading and not fully reflecting the severity of postcardiac arrest syndrome. Even if validated criteria are lacking, an extensive hemodynamic evaluation is useful to define a "benign" and a "malign" form of myocardial dysfunction and circulatory shock, potentially having treatment and prognostic implications. Cardiac output is frequently decreased after cardiac arrest, particularly in patients treated with target temperature management (TTM); however, it is not independently associated with outcome. Sinus bradycardia during TTM seems independently associated with survival and good neurological outcome, representing a promising prognostic indicator. Higher mean arterial pressure (MAP) seems to be associated with improved survival and cerebral function after cardiac arrest; however, two recent randomized clinical trials failed to replicate these results. Recommendations on hemodynamic optimization are relatively poor and are largely based on general principle of intensive care medicine.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The Interdisciplinary Cardiac Arrest Research Review (ICARE) group was formed in 2018 to conduct a systematic annual search of peer-reviewed literature relevant to cardiac arrest (CA). The goals of the review are to illustrate best practices and help reduce knowledge silos by disseminating clinically relevant advances in the field of CA across disciplines. METHODS An electronic search of PubMed using keywords related to CA was conducted. Title and abstracts retrieved by these searches were screened for relevancy, separated by article type (original research or review), and sorted into 7 categories. Screened manuscripts underwent standardized scoring of overall methodological quality and importance. Articles scoring higher than 99 percentiles by category-type were selected for full critique. Systematic differences between editors and reviewer scores were assessed using Wilcoxon signed-rank test. RESULTS A total of 9119 articles were identified on initial search; of these, 1214 were scored after screening for relevance and deduplication, and 80 underwent full critique. Prognostication & Outcomes category comprised 25% and Epidemiology & Public Health 17.5% of fully reviewed articles. There were no differences between editor and reviewer scoring. CONCLUSIONS The total number of articles demonstrates the need for an accessible source summarizing high-quality research findings to serve as a high-yield reference for clinicians and scientists seeking to absorb the ever-growing body of CA-related literature. This may promote further development of the unique and interdisciplinary field of CA medicine.
