Abstract
Both in-hospital and out-of-hospital cardiac arrests are associated with a high mortality. In the past survival advantages for patients could be achieved by optimizing the chain of rescue and postresuscitation treatment; however, for patients with refractory cardiac arrest, there have so far been few promising treatment options. For selected patients with refractory cardiac arrest who do not achieve return of spontaneous circulation with conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), extracorporeal (e)CPR using venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is an option to improve the probability of survival. This article describes the technical features, important aspects of treatment, and the current data situation on eCPR in patients with in-hospital or out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.

Impact of clinical variables on outcomes in refractory cardiac arrest patients undergoing extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Front Cardiovasc Med 2024; 10:1315548. [PMID: 38250030 PMCID: PMC10799334 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1315548] [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: 10/10/2023] [Accepted: 12/14/2023] [Indexed: 01/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Background In the past two decades, extracorporeal resuscitation (ECPR) has been increasingly used in the management of refractory cardiac arrest (CA) patients. Decision algorithms have been used to guide the care such patients, but the effectiveness of such decision-making tools is not well described. The aim of this study was to compare the rate of survival with a good neurologic outcome of patients treated with ECPR meeting all criteria of a clinical decision-making tool for the initiation of ECPR to those for whom ECPR was implemented outside of the algorithm. Methods All patients who underwent E-CPR between January 2014 and December 2021 at the Montreal Heart Institute were included in this retrospective analysis. We dichotomized the cohort according to adherence or non-adherence with the ECPR decision-making tool, which included the following criteria: age ≤65 years, initial shockable rhythm, no-flow time <5 min, serum lactate <13 mmol/L. Patients were included in the "IN" group when they met all criteria of the decision-making tool and in the "OUT" group when at least one criterion was not met. Main outcomes and measures The primary outcome was survival with intact neurological status at 30 days, defined by a Cerebral Performance Category (CPC) Scale 1 and 2. Results A total of 41 patients (IN group, n = 11; OUT group, n = 30) were included. A total of 4 (36%) patients met the primary outcome in the IN group and 7 (23%) in the OUT group [odds ratio (OR): 1.88 (95% CI, 0.42-8.34); P = 0.45]. However, survival with a favorable outcome decreased steadily with 2 or more deviations from the decision-making tool [2 deviations: 1 (11%); 3 deviations: 0 (0%)]. Conclusion and relevance Most patients supported with ECPR fell outside of the criteria encompassed in a clinical decision-making tool, which highlights the challenge of optimal selection of ECPR candidates. Survival rate with a good neurologic outcome did not differ between the IN and OUT groups. However, survival with favorable outcome decreased steadily after one deviation from the decision-making tool. More studies are needed to help select proper candidates with refractory CA patients for ECPR.

Abstract
Background Neuromuscular blocking agents are used to control shivering in cardiac arrest patients treated with target temperature management. However, their effect on outcomes in patients treated with extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation is unclear. Methods This study was a secondary analysis of the SAVE-J II study, a retrospective multicenter study of 2175 out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients treated with extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation in Japan. We classified patients into those who received neuromuscular blocking agents and those who did not and compared in-hospital mortality and incidence rates of favorable neurological outcome and in-hospital pneumonia between the groups using multivariable regression models and stabilized inverse probability weighting with propensity scores. Results Six hundred sixty patients from the SAVE-J II registry were analyzed. Neuromuscular blocking agents were used in 451 patients (68.3%). After adjusting for potential confounders, neuromuscular blocking agents use was not significantly associated with in-hospital mortality (aHR 0.88; 95% CI, 0.67-1.14), favorable neurological outcome (aOR 0.85; 95% CI, 0.60-1.11), or pneumonia (aOR 1.52; 95% CI, 0.85-2.71). The results for in-hospital mortality (aHR 0.89; 95% CI, 0.64-1.25), favorable neurological outcome (aOR 0.94; 95% CI, 0.59-1.48) and pneumonia (aOR 1.59; 95% CI, 0.74-3.41) were similar after weighting was performed. Conclusions Although data on the rationale for using neuromuscular blocking agents were unavailable, their use was not significantly associated with outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients treated with extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation and targeted temperature management. Neuromuscular blocking agents should be used based on individual clinical indications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) has been shown to improve neurologically favorable survival for patients with refractory ventricular tachycardia (VT)/ventricular fibrillation (VF) out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Prior studies of the impact of age on outcomes in ECPR have demonstrated mixed results and we aim to investigate this relationship. METHODS Patients treated with ECPR at the University of Minnesota Medical Center for refractory out-of-hospital VT/VF arrest from December 2015 to February 2023 were included. The primary endpoints included neurologically favorable survival to discharge. A receiver operating characteristic curve was used to determine an optimal predictive age limit with the highest accuracy for neurologically favorable survival. RESULTS 391 consecutive patients were included: 22% (n = 86) were female and the mean age was 56.9 ± 11.8 years. Age was independently associated with neurologically favorable survival to discharge, with a 30% decrease in survival with every 10-year increase in age (OR 0.7 (0.57-0.87), p = 0.001. Among those with neurologically favorable survival to discharge, older patients had longer length of hospital stay compared to younger age groups (p = 0.002) while patients who failed to achieve neurologically favorable survival to discharge had similar length of stay independent of age (p = 0.51). CONCLUSIONS Age is associated with neurologically favorable survival to discharge for patients receiving ECPR for refractory out-of-the-hospital VT/VF cardiac arrest. However, with a survival rate of 23% in the oldest age group, caution should be used when choosing age criteria for patient selection.

Benefits, key protocol components, and considerations for successful implementation of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation: a review of the recent literature. Clin Exp Emerg Med 2023; 10:265-279.

Abstract
The application of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in patients unresponsive to conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) has significantly increased in recent years. To date, three published randomized trials have investigated the use of extracorporeal CPR (ECPR) in adults with refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Although these trials reported inconsistent results, they suggest that ECPR may have a significant survival benefit over conventional CPR in selected patients only when performed with strict protocol adherence in experienced emergency medical services-hospital systems. Several studies suggest that identifying suitable ECPR candidates and reducing the time from cardiac arrest to ECMO initiation are key to successful outcomes. Prehospital ECPR or the rendezvous approach may allow more patients to receive ECPR within acceptable timeframes than ECPR initiation on arrival at a capable hospital. ECPR is only one part of the system of care for resuscitation of cardiac arrest victims. Optimizing the chain of survival is critical to improving outcomes of patients receiving ECPR. Further studies are needed to find the optimal strategy for the use of ECPR.

Abstract
Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation is a promising treatment for refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Three recent randomized trials (ARREST trial, Prague OHCA study, and INCEPTION trial) that addressed the clinical benefit of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest yielded seemingly diverging results. The evidence for extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, derived from three recent randomized controlled trials, is not contradictory but rather complementary. Excellent results can be achieved with a very high level of dedication, provided that strict selection criteria are applied. However, pragmatic implementation of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation does not necessarily lead to improved outcome of refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Centres that are performing extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest or aspire to do so should critically evaluate whether they are able to meet the pre-requisites that are needed to conduct an effective extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation programme.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few studies have assessed older adult patients who received extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) after cardiac arrest, and outcomes and prognostic factors of ECPR in this population remain unclear. This study aimed to assess the long-term outcomes and prognostic factors among patients older than 75 years who received ECPR after experiencing cardiac arrest. METHODS This is a single-centre, retrospective case-control study conducted between August 2010 and July 2019. Consecutive patients older than 75 years who had in-hospital (IHCA) or out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and received ECPR at the Emergency Department in the Hyogo Emergency Medical Center, Hyogo, Japan, were included. The primary outcome was a favourable neurological outcome, defined as a Cerebral Performance Category score of 1-2 at 1 year after the event. Univariate logistic regression was used to determine the association between variables and patient outcomes. RESULTS Of the 187 patients with cardiac arrest who received ECPR, 30 were older than 75 years and 28 (15% of the cohort receiving ECPR) were examined in this study. The median age of the patients was 79 years (IQR 77-82), and there were 13 (46%) male patients. Neurological outcomes were favourable for seven (25%) patients, five of whom had IHCA and two with out-of-hospital OHCA. On univariate analysis, patients with a favourable outcome had a shorter median total collapse time (TCT) than those with an unfavourable outcome (favourable: 18.0 min (IQR 13.0-33.5) vs unfavourable: 44.0 min (IQR 25.0-53.0); p=0.049). CONCLUSION In selected patients older than 75 years, ECPR could be beneficial by providing a shorter TCT, which may contribute to favourable neurological outcomes. Nevertheless, further studies are needed to validate these findings.

Abstract
Aim In this study, we aimed to investigate the efficacy of a helicopter emergency medical service (HEMS) facilitated pathway for in-hospital extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) for patients with an out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in a semi-rural setting. Methods We retrospectively reviewed all patients with an OHCA attended by a UK HEMS service between 1 January 2018 and 20 September 2021, when a dedicated ECPR pathway was in effect to facilitate transport of eligible patients to the nearest ECLS centre. The primary endpoint was the number of patients meeting ECPR eligibility criteria at three pre-defined time points: at HEMS dispatch, during on-scene evaluation and upon arrival in hospital. Results During the study period, 162 patients attended met ECPR pathway dispatch criteria. After on-scene evaluation, 74 patients (45%) had a return of spontaneously circulation before arrival of HEMS, 60 (37%) did not meet eligibility criteria regarding initial rhythm or etiology of the OHCA, and 15 (9%) had deteriorated (mainly into asystole) and were no longer suitable candidates upon arrival of HEMS. Eleven patients were eligible for ECPR and transported to hospital in arrest, and a further two patients were transported for post-ROSC ECLS. Nine patients deteriorated during transport and were no longer suitable ECPR candidates upon arrival. ECLS was successfully initiated in two patients (one intra-arrest, and one post-ROSC). Conclusion In-hospital ECPR is of limited value for patients with refractory OHCA in a semi-rural setting, even when a dedicated pathway is in place. Potentially eligible patients often cannot be transported within an appropriate timeframe and/or deteriorate before arrival in hospital.

[PMID: 36157919 PMCID: PMC9494238 DOI: 10.1016/j.resplu.2022.100300] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2022] [Revised: 08/03/2022] [Accepted: 08/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Aim This study aimed to investigate the relationship between transient return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) before extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) initiation and outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients, who were resuscitated with extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR). Methods This study was a secondary analysis of the SAVE-J II study, which was a retrospective multicentre registry study involving 36 participating institutions in Japan. We classified patients into two groups according to the presence or absence of transient ROSC before ECMO initiation. Transient ROSC was defined as any palpable pulse of ≥1 min before ECMO initiation. The primary outcome was favourable neurological outcomes (cerebral performance categories 1–2). Results Of 2,157 patients registered in the SAVE-J II study, 1,501 met the study inclusion criteria; 328 (22%) experienced transient ROSC before ECMO initiation. Patients with transient ROSC had better outcomes than those without ROSC (favourable neurological outcome, 26% vs 12%, P < 0.001; survival to hospital discharge, 46% vs 24%, respectively; P < 0.001). A Kaplan–Meier plot showed better survival in the transient ROSC group (log-rank test, P < 0.001). In multiple logistic analyses, transient ROSC was significantly associated with favourable neurological outcomes and survival (favourable neurological outcomes, adjusted odds ratio, 3.34 [95% confidence interval, 2.35–4.73]; survival, adjusted odds ratio, 3.99 [95% confidence interval, 2.95–5.40]). Conclusions In OHCA patients resuscitated with ECPR, transient ROSC before ECMO initiation was associated with favourable outcomes. Hence, transient ROSC is a predictor of improved outcomes after ECPR.

Abstract
AIMS Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) for refractory cardiac arrest (CA) is used in selected cases. The incidence of ECPR-eligible patients is not known. The aim of this study was to identify the ECPR-eligible patients among in-hospital CAs (IHCA) in Sweden and to estimate the potential gain in survival and neurological outcome, if ECPR was to be used. METHODS AND RESULTS Data between 1 January 2015 and 30 August 2019 were extracted from the Swedish Cardiac Arrest Register (SCAR). Two arbitrary groups were defined, based on restrictive or liberal inclusion criteria. In both groups, logistic regression was used to determine survival and cerebral performance category (CPC) for conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation (cCPR). When ECPR was assumed to be possible, it was considered equivalent to return of spontaneous circulation, and the previous logistic regression model was applied to define outcome for comparison of conventional CPR and ECPR. The assumption in the model was a minimum of 15 min of refractory CA and 5 min of cannulation. A total of 9209 witnessed IHCA was extracted from SCAR. Depending on strictness of inclusion, an average of 32-64 patients/year remains in refractory after 20 min of cCPR, theoretically eligible for ECPR. If optimal conditions for ECPR are assumed and potential negative side effects disregarded of, the estimated potential benefit of survival of ECPR in Sweden would be 10-19 (0.09-0.19/100 000) patients/year, when a 30% success rate is expected. The benefit of ECPR on survival and CPC scoring was found to be detrimental over time and minimal at 60 min of cCPR. CONCLUSION The number of ECPR-eligible patients among IHCA in Sweden is dependent on selection criteria and predicted to be low. There is an estimated potential benefit of ECPR, on survival and neurological outcome if initiated within 60 min of the IHCA.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) is an invasive and resource-intensive therapy used to care for patients with refractory cardiac arrest. In this review, we highlight considerations for the establishment of an ECPR system of care for patients suffering refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). RECENT FINDINGS ECPR has been shown to improve neurologically favorable outcomes in patients with refractory cardiac arrest in numerous studies, including a single randomized control trial. Successful ECPR programs are typically part of a comprehensive system of care that optimizes all phases of OHCA management. Given the resource-intensive and time-sensitive nature of ECPR, patient selection criteria, timing of ECPR, and location must be well defined. Many knowledge gaps remain within ECPR systems of care, postcardiac arrest management, and neuroprognostication strategies for ECPR patients. SUMMARY To be consistently successful, ECPR must be a part of a comprehensive OHCA system of care that optimizes all phases of cardiac arrest management. Future investigation is needed for the knowledge gaps that remain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevalence of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) has been increasing rapidly worldwide. However, guidelines or clinical studies do not provide sufficient data on ECPR practice. The aim of this study was to provide real-world data on ECPR for patients with OHCA, including details of complications. METHODS We did a retrospective database analysis of observational multicenter cohort study in Japan. Adult patients with OHCA of presumed cardiac etiology who received ECPR between 2013 and 2018 were included. The primary outcome was favorable neurological outcome at hospital discharge, defined as a cerebral performance category of 1 or 2. RESULTS A total of 1644 patients with OHCA were included in this study. The patient age was 18-93 years (median: 60 years). Shockable rhythm in the initial cardiac rhythm at the scene was 69.4%. The median estimated low flow time was 55 min (interquartile range: 45-66 min). Favorable neurological outcome at hospital discharge was observed in 14.1% of patients, and the rate of survival to hospital discharge was 27.2%. The proportions of favorable neurological outcome at hospital discharge in terms of shockable rhythm, pulseless electrical activity, and asystole were 16.7%, 9.2%, and 3.9%, respectively. Complications were observed during ECPR in 32.7% of patients, and the most common complication was bleeding, with the rates of cannulation site bleeding and other types of hemorrhage at 16.4% and 8.5%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS In this large cohort, data on the ECPR of 1644 patients with OHCA show that the proportion of favorable neurological outcomes at hospital discharge was 14.1%, survival rate at hospital discharge was 27.2%, and complications were observed during ECPR in 32.7%.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Patient selection is crucial to improving the outcomes of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR). However, ECPR's efficacy with older patients remains unknown. METHODS We reviewed patients who underwent extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for refractory cardiac arrest from January 2006 to December 2018. Exclusion criteria were age <18 years, cannulation failure and ECMO applied at another hospital. We divided patients into 2 groups with an age cut-off of 66 years, using the Contal and O'Quigley method for overall survival. We performed inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) between the 2 groups and set the primary outcome as overall survival. RESULTS We included 318 patients in our study (≤66 years, n = 199; >66 years, n = 119). Before IPTW, we observed that the older group had a higher frequency of diabetes, hypertension, and myocardial infarction. In the young group, more patients had out-of-hospital cardiac arrest as compared with the older group. The hospital mortality rate was 55% (48.7% in the young group, 65.5% in the older group; P = 0.004). In the multivariable analysis after IPTW, the older group showed worse outcomes in overall survival [hazard ratio (HR) = 2.02; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.50-2.70; P < 0.001] and neurological outcomes at discharge (odds ratio = 2.95; 95% CI, 1.69-5.14; P = <0.001). ECMO insertion during catheterization (HR = 0.57; 95% CI, 0.36-0.90; P = 0.015) and recovery of spontaneous circulation before pump-on (HR = 0.67; 95% CI, 0.50-0.89; P = 0.007) were positive predictors, but initial asystole rhythm, non-cardiac cause (HR = 2.39; 95% CI, 1.59-3.61; P < 0.001), out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (HR = 1.86; 95% CI, 1.24-2.79; P = 0.003) and prolonged cardiopulmonary resuscitation to pump-on time (HR = 1.01; 95% CI, 1.01-1.02; P < 0.001) were negative predictors for overall survival. CONCLUSIONS Older patients who had ECPR had significantly worse survival and neurological outcomes. For patients older than age 66 years, more careful patient selection is critically important for improving the efficacy of ECPR.
