Abstract
ABSTRACT Background: The high mortality rates of patients who are resuscitated from cardiac arrest (CA) are attributed to post cardiac arrest syndrome (PCAS). This study evaluated the effect of hyperoxygenation and targeted temperature management (TTM) on PCAS in rats with different causes of CA. Methods and Results: One hundred sixty-eight Sprague-Dawley rats were equally divided into asphyxial and dysrhythmic groups. Animals were further randomized into four subgroups immediately after resuscitation: normoxia-normothermia (NO-NT), ventilated with 21% oxygen under normothermia; hyperoxia-normothermia (HO-NT), ventilated with 100% oxygen for 3 hours under normothermia; normoxia-hypothermia (NO-HT), ventilated with 21% oxygen for 3 hours under hypothermia; and hyperoxia-hypothermia (HO-HT), ventilated with 100% oxygen for 3 hours under hypothermia. Post resuscitation cardiac dysfunction, neurological recovery, and pathological analysis were assessed. For asphyxial CA, HO-NT and HO-HT (68.8% and 75.0%) had significantly higher survival than NO-NT and NO-HT (31.3% and 31.3%). For dysrhythmic CA, NO-HT and HO-HT (81.3% and 87.5%) had significantly higher survival than NO-NT and HO-NT (44.0% and 50.0%). When all of the rats were considered, the survival rate was much higher in HO-HT (81.3%). Compared with NO-NT (57.7% ± 14.9% and 40.3% ± 7.8%), the collagen volume fraction and the proportion of fluoro-jade B-positive area in HO-HT (14.0% ± 5.7% and 28.0% ± 13.3%) were significantly reduced. Conclusion: The beneficial effects of hyperoxygenation and TTM are dependent on the cause of arrest: hyperoxygenation benefits asphyxial, whereas TTM benefits dysrhythmic CA. The combination of hyperoxygenation and TTM could effectively improve the functional outcome of PCAS regardless of the cause of CA.

CHILDREN (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 9:children9111601. [PMID: 36360329 PMCID: PMC9688656 DOI: 10.3390/children9111601] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2022] [Revised: 10/17/2022] [Accepted: 10/19/2022] [Indexed: 01/25/2023]
Abstract
Background: During pediatric cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), resuscitation guidelines recommend 100% oxygen (O2); however, the most effective O2 concentration for infants unknown. Aim: We aimed to determine if 21% O2 during CPR with either chest compression (CC) during sustained inflation (SI) (CC + SI) or continuous chest compression with asynchronized ventilation (CCaV) will reduce time to return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) compared to 100% O2 in infant piglets with asphyxia-induced cardiac arrest. Methods: Piglets (20−23 days of age, weighing 6.2−10.2 kg) were anesthetized, intubated, instrumented, and exposed to asphyxia. Cardiac arrest was defined as mean arterial blood pressure < 25 mmHg with bradycardia. After cardiac arrest, piglets were randomized to CC + SI or CCaV with either 21% or 100% O2 or the sham. Heart rate, arterial blood pressure, carotid blood flow, and respiratory parameters were continuously recorded. Main results: Baseline parameters, duration, and degree of asphyxiation were not different. Median (interquartile range) time to ROSC was 107 (90−440) and 140 (105−200) s with CC + SI 21% and 100% O2, and 600 (50−600) and 600 (95−600) s with CCaV 21% and 100% O2 (p = 0.27). Overall, six (86%) and six (86%) piglets with CC + SI 21% and 100% O2, and three (43%) and three (43%) piglets achieved ROSC with CCaV 21% and 100% O2 (p = 0.13). Conclusions: In infant piglets resuscitated with CC + SI, time to ROSC reduced and survival improved compared to CCaV. The use of 21% O2 had similar time to ROSC, short-term survival, and hemodynamic recovery compared to 100% oxygen. Clinical studies comparing 21% with 100% O2 during infant CPR are warranted.

Abstract
This 2020 International Consensus on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care Science With Treatment Recommendations (CoSTR) for pediatric life support is based on the most extensive evidence evaluation ever performed by the Pediatric Life Support Task Force. Three types of evidence evaluation were used in this review: systematic reviews, scoping reviews, and evidence updates. Per agreement with the evidence evaluation recommendations of the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation, only systematic reviews could result in a new or revised treatment recommendation. Systematic reviews performed for this 2020 CoSTR for pediatric life support included the topics of sequencing of airway-breaths-compressions versus compressions-airway-breaths in the delivery of pediatric basic life support, the initial timing and dose intervals for epinephrine administration during resuscitation, and the targets for oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in pediatric patients after return of spontaneous circulation. The most controversial topics included the initial timing and dose intervals of epinephrine administration (new treatment recommendations were made) and the administration of fluid for infants and children with septic shock (this latter topic was evaluated by evidence update). All evidence reviews identified the paucity of pediatric data and the need for more research involving resuscitation of infants and children.

Abstract
Oxygen is commonly used in the delivery room during neonatal resuscitation. The transition from intrauterine to extrauterine life is a challenge to newborns, and exposure to too much oxygen can cause an increase in oxidative stress. The goal of resuscitation is to achieve normal oxygen levels as quickly as possible while avoiding excessive oxygen exposure and preventing inadequate oxygen supplementation. Although it has been shown that room air resuscitation is as effective as using 100% oxygen, often preterm infants need some degree of oxygen supplementation. The ideal concentration of oxygen with which to initiate resuscitation is yet to be determined. Current delivery room resuscitation guidelines recommend the use of room air for term newborns and preterm newborns of greater than or equal to 35 weeks' gestation and the use of a fraction of inspired oxygen of 0.21 to 0.3 for preterm infants of less than 35 weeks' gestation. Further recommendations include titrating oxygen supplementation as needed to obtain goal saturations. However, there is no current consensus on an intermediate oxygen concentration to start resuscitation or goal range saturations for preterm and asphyxiated term infants.

Abstract
In this review, we summarize the results of studies that investigated the effects of hypoxia and reoxygenation in cardiac arrest, including the use of different fractions of inspired oxygen, in neonatal animals. The studies were heterogenous in terms of anaesthetic regimens, and definitions of cardiac arrest and circulatory recovery. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation with 100% oxygen increased oxidative stress in maturing rats. Studies in fetal/neonatal lambs and post-transitional neonatal piglets indicate no consistent differences between ventilation with 21% vs. 100% oxygen with regards to recovery times, oxygen damage or adverse events. If 21% oxygen is as effective as 100% oxygen in newborn infants with cardiac arrest requiring chest compression, the use of 21% instead of 100% oxygen could reduce morbidity and mortality in asphyxiated infants. Unanswered questions include what is the most optimal cerebral oxygen delivery during reperfusion, as well as oxygenation targets after return of spontaneous circulation.

Abstract
The European Resuscitation Guidelines recommend that survivors of cardiac arrest (CA) be resuscitated with 100% O2 and undergo subsequent-post-return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC)-reduction of O2 supply to prevent hyperoxia. Hyperoxia produces a "second neurotoxic hit," which, together with the initial ischemic insult, causes ischemia-reperfusion injury. However, heterogeneous results from animal studies suggest that normoxia can also be detrimental. One clear reason for these inconsistent results is the considerable heterogeneity of the models used. In this study, the histological outcome of the hippocampal CA1 region following resuscitation with 100% O2 combined with different post-ROSC ventilation regimes (21%, 50%, and 100% O2) was investigated in a rat CA/resuscitation model with survival times of 7 and 21 days. Immunohistochemical stainings of NeuN, MAP2, GFAP, and IBA1 revealed a neuroprotective potency of post-ROSC ventilation with 21% O2, although it was only temporary. This limitation should be because of the post-ROSC intervention targeting only processes of ischemia-induced secondary injury. There were no ventilation-dependent effects on either microglial activation, reduction of which is accepted as being neuroprotective, or astroglial activation, which is accepted as being able to enhance neurons' resistance to ischemia/reperfusion injury. Furthermore, our findings verify the limited comparability of animal studies because of the individual heterogeneity of the animals, experimental regimes, and evaluation procedures used.

Abstract
Gradually increased oxygen administration (GIOA) seems promising in hemorrhagic shock. However, the effects of GIOA on survival remain unclear, and details of GIOA are to be identified. After the induction of hemorrhagic shock, the rats were randomized into five groups (n = 9): normoxic group (Normo), hyperoxic group (Hypero), normoxic to hyperoxic group (GIOA1), long-time hypoxemic to hyperoxic group (GIOA2), and short-time hypoxemic to hyperoxic group (GIOA3). Survival was recorded for 96 h, plasma alanine transaminase, oxidative stress, hemodynamics, and blood gas were measured. The mean survival time of the GIOA3 was significantly longer than that of the Normo, Hypero, and GIOA2. Plasma alanine transaminase levels were significantly lower in the Normo, GIOA1, and GIOA3 compared to the Hypero and GIOA2 at 2 h post-resuscitation (PR). Plasma 3-nitrotyrosine levels at 2 h PR were significantly lower in the GIOA2 and GIOA3 compared to the Normo and Hypero. Central venous oxygen saturation at 2 h PR in the GIOA3 was significantly higher than the Normo; however, no significant difference was observed between GIOA1 and Normo. Besides, at 2 h PR, mean arterial pressure in the GIOA3 was significantly higher than the GIOA2; however, no significant difference was observed between GIOA1 and GIOA2. (1) GIOA could significantly prolong survival time compared to normoxemic resuscitation and hyperoxic resuscitation; (2) early moments of GIOA are critical to the benefits; and (3) hypoxemia at onset of resuscitation may be imperative, more works are needed to determine the optimal initial oxygen concentration of GIOA.

Abstract
Although accumulating evidence suggests that repetitive mild TBI (rmTBI) may cause long-term cognitive dysfunction in adults, whether rmTBI causes similar deficits in the immature brain is unknown. Here we used an experimental model of rmTBI in the immature brain to answer this question. Post-natal day (PND) 18 rats were subjected to either one, two, or three mild TBIs (mTBI) or an equivalent number of sham insults 24 h apart. After one or two mTBIs or sham insults, histology was evaluated at 7 days. After three mTBIs or sham insults, motor (d1-5), cognitive (d11-92), and histological (d21-92) outcome was evaluated. At 7 days, silver degeneration staining revealed axonal argyrophilia in the external capsule and corpus callosum after a single mTBI, with a second impact increasing axonal injury. Iba-1 immunohistochemistry showed amoeboid shaped microglia within the amygdalae bilaterally after mTBI. After three mTBI, there were no differences in beam balance, Morris water maze, and elevated plus maze performance versus sham. The rmTBI rats, however, showed impairment in novel object recognition and fear conditioning. Axonal silver staining was observed only in the external capsule on d21. Iba-1 staining did not reveal activated microglia on d21 or d92. In conclusion, mTBI results in traumatic axonal injury and microglial activation in the immature brain with repeated impact exacerbating axonal injury. The rmTBI in the immature brain leads to long-term associative learning deficit in adulthood. Defining the mechanisms damage from rmTBI in the developing brain could be vital for identification of therapies for children.

Abstract
PURPOSE Previous observational studies have inconsistently associated early hyperoxia with worse outcomes after cardiac arrest, and have methodological limitations. We tested this association using a high-resolution database controlling for multiple disease-specific markers of severity of illness and care processes. METHODS This was a retrospective analysis of a single-center, prospective registry of consecutive cardiac arrest patients. We included patients who survived and were mechanically ventilated ≥24 h after arrest. Our main exposure was arterial oxygen tension (PaO2), which we categorized hourly for 24 h as severe hyperoxia (>300 mmHg), moderate or probable hyperoxia (101-299 mmHg), normoxia (60-100 mmHg) or hypoxia (<60 mmHg). We controlled for Utstein-style covariates, markers of disease severity and markers of care responsiveness. We performed unadjusted and multiple logistic regression to test the association between oxygen exposure and survival to discharge, and used ordered logistic regression to test the association of oxygen exposure with neurological outcome and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score at 24 h. RESULTS Of 184 patients, 36 % were exposed to severe hyperoxia and overall mortality was 54 %. Severe hyperoxia, but not moderate or probable hyperoxia, was associated with decreased survival in both unadjusted and adjusted analysis [adjusted odds ratio (OR) for survival 0.83 per hour exposure, P = 0.04]. Moderate or probable hyperoxia was not associated with survival but was associated with improved SOFA score 24 h (OR 0.92, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION Severe hyperoxia was independently associated with decreased survival to hospital discharge. Moderate or probable hyperoxia was not associated with decreased survival and was associated with improved organ function at 24 h.

Progesterone protects mitochondrial function in a rat model of pediatric traumatic brain injury. J Bioenerg Biomembr 2014; 47:43-51.

Abstract
Progesterone has been studied extensively in preclinical models of adult traumatic brain injury (TBI), and has advanced to clinical trials in adults with TBI. However, there are very few preclinical studies in pediatric TBI models investigating progesterone for neuroprotection. Immature male and female rats (postnatal day, PND 17-21) underwent controlled cortical impact (CCI) to the left parietal cortex. Rats received either progesterone (10 mg/kg) at 1 h (i.p.) and 6 h (s.c.) after TBI or vehicle (22.5 % cyclohexdrin), and were compared to naïve, age-matched littermates. At 24 h after CCI, brain mitochondria were isolated from the ipsilateral hemisphere. Active (State 3) and resting (State 4) mitochondrial respiration were measured, and mitochondrial respiratory control ratio (RCR, State 3/State 4) was determined. Total mitochonidral glutathione content was measured. A separate group of rats were studied for histology, and received progesterone or vehicle every 24 h (s.c.) for 7 days. In male rats, TBI reduced mitochondrial RCR, and progesterone preserved mitochondrial RCR. This improvement of RCR was predominantly through significant decreases in State 4 respiratory rates. In female rats, post-injury treatment with progesterone did not significantly improve mitochondrial RCR. Normal (uninjured) male rats had lower mitochondrial glutathione content than normal female rats. After TBI, progesterone prevented loss of mitochondrial glutathione in male rats only. Tissue loss was reduced in progesterone treated female rats at 7d after CCI. Future studies will be directed at correlation with neurologic outcome testing. These preclinical studies could provide information for planning future clinical trials of progesterone treatment in children with TBI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pediatric sudden cardiac arrest (CA) is an unfortunate and devastating condition, often leading to poor neurologic outcomes. However, little experimental data on the pathophysiology of pediatric CA is currently available due to the scarcity of animal models. NEW METHOD We developed a novel experimental model of pediatric cardiac arrest and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CA/CPR) using postnatal day 20-25 mice. Adult (8-12 weeks) and pediatric (P20-25) mice were subjected to 6min CA/CPR. Hippocampal CA1 and striatal neuronal injury were quantified 3 days after resuscitation by hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and Fluoro-Jade B staining, respectively. RESULTS Pediatric mice exhibited less neuronal injury in both CA1 hippocampal and striatal neurons compared to adult mice. Increasing ischemia time to 8 min CA/CPR resulted in an increase in hippocampal injury in pediatric mice, resulting in similar damage in adult and pediatric brains. In contrast, striatal injury in the pediatric brain following 6 or 8 min CA/CPR remained extremely low. As observed in adult mice, cardiac arrest causes delayed neuronal death in pediatric mice, with hippocampal CA1 neuronal damage maturing at 72 h after insult. Finally, mild therapeutic hypothermia reduced hippocampal CA1 neuronal injury after pediatric CA/CPR. COMPARISON WITH EXISTING METHOD This is the first report of a cardiac arrest and CPR model of global cerebral ischemia in mice. CONCLUSIONS Therefore, the mouse pediatric CA/CPR model we developed is unique and will provide an important new tool to the research community for the study of pediatric brain injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Observational studies in adults have shown a worse outcome associated with hyperoxia after resuscitation from cardiac arrest. Extrapolating from adult data, current pediatric resuscitation guidelines recommend avoiding hyperoxia. We investigated the relationship between arterial partial oxygen pressure and survival in patients admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) after cardiac arrest. METHODS AND RESULTS We conducted a retrospective cohort study using the Pediatric Intensive Care Audit Network (PICANet) database between 2003 and 2010 (n=122,521). Patients aged <16 years with documented cardiac arrest preceding PICU admission and arterial blood gas analysis taken within 1 hour of PICU admission were included. The primary outcome measure was death within the PICU. The relationship between postarrest oxygen status and outcome was modeled with logistic regression, with nonlinearities explored via multivariable fractional polynomials. Covariates included age, sex, ethnicity, congenital heart disease, out-of-hospital arrest, year, Pediatric Index of Mortality-2 (PIM2) mortality risk, and organ supportive therapies. Of 1875 patients, 735 (39%) died in PICU. Based on the first arterial gas, 207 patients (11%) had hyperoxia (Pa(O)(2) ≥300 mm Hg) and 448 (24%) had hypoxia (Pa(O)(2) <60 mm Hg). We found a significant nonlinear relationship between Pa(O)(2) and PICU mortality. After covariate adjustment, risk of death increased sharply with increasing hypoxia (odds ratio, 1.92; 95% confidence interval, 1.80-2.21 at Pa(O)(2) of 23 mm Hg). There was also an association with increasing hyperoxia, although not as dramatic as that for hypoxia (odds ratio, 1.25; 95% confidence interval, 1.17-1.37 at 600 mm Hg). We observed an increasing mortality risk with advancing age, which was more pronounced in the presence of congenital heart disease. CONCLUSIONS Both severe hypoxia and, to a lesser extent, hyperoxia are associated with an increased risk of death after PICU admission after cardiac arrest.

Abstract
Postresuscitation cerebral blood flow (CBF) disturbances and generation of reactive oxygen species likely contribute to impaired neurologic outcome after pediatric cardiac arrest (CA). Hence, we determined the effects of the antioxidant colloid polynitroxyl albumin (PNA) versus albumin or normal saline (NS) on CBF and neurologic outcome after asphyxial CA in immature rats. We induced asphyxia for 9 minutes in male and female postnatal day 16 to 18 rats randomized to receive PNA, albumin, or NS at resuscitation from CA or sham surgery. Regional CBF was measured serially from 5 to 150 minutes after resuscitation by arterial spin-labeled magnetic resonance imaging. We assessed motor function (beam balance and inclined plane), spatial memory retention (water maze), and hippocampal neuronal survival. Polynitroxyl albumin reduced early hyperemia seen 5 minutes after CA. In contrast, albumin markedly increased and prolonged hyperemia. In the delayed period after resuscitation (90 to 150 minutes), CBF was comparable among groups. Both PNA- and albumin-treated rats performed better in the water maze versus NS after CA. This benefit was observed only in males. Hippocampal neuron survival was similar between injury groups. Treatment of immature rats with PNA or albumin resulted in divergent acute changes in CBF, but both improved spatial memory retention in males after asphyxial CA.

Abstract
Oxygen (O(2)) is the most frequently used pharmaceutical in anesthesiology and intensive care medicine: Every patient receives O(2) during surgery or during a stay in the intensive care unit. Hypoxia and hypoxemia of various origins are the most typical indications which are mentioned in the prescribing information of O(2): the goal of the administration of O(2) is either an increase of arterial O(2) partial pressure in order to treat hypoxia, or an increase of arterial O(2) content in order to treat hypoxemia. Most of the indications for O(2) administration were developed in former times and have seldom been questioned from that time on as the short-term side-effects of O(2) are usually considered to be of minor importance. As a consequence only a small number of controlled randomized studies exist, which can demonstrate the efficacy of O(2) in terms of evidence-based medicine. However, there is an emerging body of evidence that specific side-effects of O(2) result in a deterioration of the microcirculation. The administration of O(2) induces arteriolar constriction which will initiate a decline of regional O(2) delivery and subsequently a decline of tissue oxygenation. The aim of the manuscript presented is to discuss the significance of O(2) as a pharmaceutical in the clinical setting.

Abstract
There are several forms of acute pediatric brain injury, including neonatal asphyxia, pediatric cardiac arrest with global ischemia, and head trauma, that result in devastating, lifelong neurologic impairment. The only clinical intervention that appears neuroprotective is hypothermia initiated soon after the initial injury. Evidence indicates that oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and impaired cerebral energy metabolism contribute to the brain cell death that is responsible for much of the poor neurologic outcome from these events. Recent results obtained from both in vitro and animal models of neuronal death in the immature brain point toward several molecular mechanisms that are either induced or promoted by oxidative modification of macromolecules, including consumption of cytosolic and mitochondrial NAD(+) by poly-ADP ribose polymerase, opening of the mitochondrial inner membrane permeability transition pore, and inactivation of key, rate-limiting metabolic enzymes, e.g., the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. In addition, the relative abundance of pro-apoptotic proteins in immature brains and neurons, and particularly within their mitochondria, predisposes these cells to the intrinsic, mitochondrial pathway of apoptosis, mediated by Bax- or Bak-triggered release of proteins into the cytosol through the mitochondrial outer membrane. Based on these pathways of cell dysfunction and death, several approaches toward neuroprotection are being investigated that show promise toward clinical translation. These strategies include minimizing oxidative stress by avoiding unnecessary hyperoxia, promoting aerobic energy metabolism by repletion of NAD(+) and by providing alternative oxidative fuels, e.g., ketone bodies, directly interfering with apoptotic pathways at the mitochondrial level, and pharmacologic induction of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory gene expression.
