Cardiopulmonary resuscitation employing only abdominal compressions in infants after cardiac surgery: A secondary sub-analysis of the ICU-RESUS study. Resusc Plus 2024; 20:100765. [PMID: 39309747 PMCID: PMC11416554 DOI: 10.1016/j.resplu.2024.100765] [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: 07/19/2024] [Revised: 08/16/2024] [Accepted: 08/25/2024] [Indexed: 09/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Importance Patients with underlying cardiac disease form a considerable proportion of pediatric patients who experience in-hospital cardiac arrest. In pediatric patients after cardiac surgery, CPR with abdominal compressions alone (AC-CPR) may provide an alternative to standard chest compression CPR (S-CPR) with additional procedural and physiologic advantages. Objective Quantitatively describe hemodynamics during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and outcomes of infants who received only abdominal compressions (AC-CPR). Design This is a sub-group analysis of the prospective, observational cohort from the ICU-RESUS trial NCT028374497. Setting & Patients A single site quaternary care pediatric cardiothoracic intensive care unit enrolled in the ICU-RESUS trial. Patients less than 1 year of age with congenital heart disease who required compressions during cardiac arrest. Interventions Use of AC-CPR during cardiac arrest resuscitation. Measurements and Main Results Invasive arterial line waveforms during CPR were analyzed for 11 patients (10 surgical cardiac and 1 medical cardiac). Median weight was 3.3 kg [IQR 3.0, 4.0]; and median duration of CPR was 5.0 [3.0, 20.0] minutes. Systolic (median 57 [IQR 48, 65] mmHg) and diastolic (median 32 [IQR 24, 43] mmHg) blood pressures were achieved with a median rate of 114 [IQR 100, 124] compressions per minute. Return of spontaneous circulation was obtained in 9 of 11 (82%) patients; 2 patients (18%) were cannulated for extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) and 6 (55%) survived to hospital discharge with favorable neurologic outcome. Conclusions AC-CPR may offer an alternative method to maintain perfusion for infants who experience cardiac arrest. This may have particular benefit in pediatric patients after cardiac surgery for whom external chest compressions may be harmful due to anatomic and physiologic considerations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Data to support epinephrine dosing intervals during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) are conflicting. The objective of this study was to evaluate the association between epinephrine dosing intervals and outcomes. We hypothesized that dosing intervals less than 3 minutes would be associated with improved neurologic survival compared with greater than or equal to 3 minutes. DESIGN This study is a secondary analysis of The ICU-RESUScitation Project (NCT028374497), a multicenter trial of a quality improvement bundle of physiology-directed CPR training and post-cardiac arrest debriefing. SETTING Eighteen PICUs and pediatric cardiac ICUs in the United States. PATIENTS Subjects were 18 years young or younger and 37 weeks old or older corrected gestational age who had an index cardiac arrest. Patients who received less than two doses of epinephrine, received extracorporeal CPR, or had dosing intervals greater than 8 minutes were excluded. INTERVENTIONS The primary exposure was an epinephrine dosing interval of less than 3 vs. greater than or equal to 3 minutes. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS The primary outcome was survival to discharge with a favorable neurologic outcome defined as a Pediatric Cerebral Performance Category score of 1-2 or no change from baseline. Regression models evaluated the association between dosing intervals and: 1) survival outcomes and 2) CPR duration. Among 382 patients meeting inclusion and exclusion criteria, median age was 0.9 years (interquartile range 0.3-7.6 yr) and 45% were female. After adjustment for confounders, dosing intervals less than 3 minutes were not associated with survival with favorable neurologic outcome (adjusted relative risk [aRR], 1.10; 95% CI, 0.84-1.46; p = 0.48) but were associated with improved sustained return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) (aRR, 1.21; 95% CI, 1.07-1.37; p < 0.01) and shorter CPR duration (adjusted effect estimate, -9.5 min; 95% CI, -14.4 to -4.84 min; p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS In patients receiving at least two doses of epinephrine, dosing intervals less than 3 minutes were not associated with neurologic outcome but were associated with sustained ROSC and shorter CPR duration.

Early bolus epinephrine administration during pediatric cardiopulmonary resuscitation for bradycardia with poor perfusion: an ICU-resuscitation study. Crit Care 2024; 28:242. [PMID: 39010134 PMCID: PMC11251231 DOI: 10.1186/s13054-024-05018-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2024] [Accepted: 07/04/2024] [Indexed: 07/17/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Half of pediatric in-hospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) events have an initial rhythm of non-pulseless bradycardia with poor perfusion. Our study objectives were to leverage granular data from the ICU-RESUScitation (ICU-RESUS) trial to: (1) determine the association of early epinephrine administration with survival outcomes in children receiving CPR for bradycardia with poor perfusion; and (2) describe the incidence and time course of the development of pulselessness. METHODS Prespecified secondary analysis of ICU-RESUS, a multicenter cluster randomized trial of children (< 19 years) receiving CPR in 18 intensive care units in the United States. Index events (October 2016-March 2021) lasting ≥ 2 min with a documented initial rhythm of bradycardia with poor perfusion were included. Associations between early epinephrine (first 2 min of CPR) and outcomes were evaluated with Poisson multivariable regression controlling for a priori pre-arrest characteristics. Among patients with arterial lines, intra-arrest blood pressure waveforms were reviewed to determine presence of a pulse during CPR interruptions. The temporal nature of progression to pulselessness was described and outcomes were compared between patients according to subsequent pulselessness status. RESULTS Of 452 eligible subjects, 322 (71%) received early epinephrine. The early epinephrine group had higher pre-arrest severity of illness and vasoactive-inotrope scores. Early epinephrine was not associated with survival to discharge (aRR 0.97, 95%CI 0.82, 1.14) or survival with favorable neurologic outcome (aRR 0.99, 95%CI 0.82, 1.18). Among 186 patients with invasive blood pressure waveforms, 118 (63%) had at least 1 period of pulselessness during the first 10 min of CPR; 86 (46%) by 2 min and 100 (54%) by 3 min. Sustained return of spontaneous circulation was highest after bradycardia with poor perfusion (84%) compared to bradycardia with poor perfusion progressing to pulselessness (43%) and bradycardia with poor perfusion progressing to pulselessness followed by return to bradycardia with poor perfusion (62%) (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS In this cohort of pediatric CPR events with an initial rhythm of bradycardia with poor perfusion, we failed to identify an association between early bolus epinephrine and outcomes when controlling for illness severity. Most children receiving CPR for bradycardia with poor perfusion developed subsequent pulselessness, 46% within 2 min of CPR onset.

Association of diastolic blood pressure with coronary perfusion pressure during resuscitation in pediatric swine. Pediatr Res 2024:10.1038/s41390-024-03308-y. [PMID: 39009765 DOI: 10.1038/s41390-024-03308-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2023] [Revised: 04/25/2024] [Accepted: 05/18/2024] [Indexed: 07/17/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diastolic blood pressure (DBP) is suggested as a surrogate for coronary perfusion pressure (CPP) during cardiopulmonary resuscitation. We examined the correlation between DBP and CPP and hypothesized that both would be associated with survival in a pediatric swine model of asphyxial cardiac arrest. METHODS We performed a retrospective, secondary analysis of 102 pediatric swine resuscitations. DBP and CPP were recorded every 30 s during resuscitation. Values were compared between survivors and non-survivors. RESULTS DBP mirrored CPP in survivors and non-survivors throughout resuscitation and both were associated with survival. Improvements in DBP and CPP after the first epinephrine administration were greater in survivors (DBP: 25.1 ± 3.0 vs. 5.4 ± 0.8 mmHg, p < 0.01; CPP: 24.9 ± 3.2 vs. 4.8 ± 0.9 mmHg, p < 0.01). DBP and CPP after epinephrine administration were highly predictive of survival, with an area under the curve of 0.95 (0.89-1.00) for DBP and 0.90 (0.81-0.99) for CPP. The optimal threshold for DBP was 22.5 mmHg, whereas that for CPP was 14.5 mmHg. CONCLUSIONS DBP and CPP were associated with survival throughout resuscitation, and the response of both to the first epinephrine administration was highly predictive of survival in this model. Clinically, the availability of DBP makes it useful as a target for physiologic feedback during resuscitation. IMPACT Diastolic blood pressure (DBP) mirrored coronary perfusion pressure (CPP) throughout prolonged resuscitation in a pediatric model of asphyxial cardiac arrest. Mean DBP and CPP were significantly greater in survivors than in non-survivors both before and after administration of epinephrine. The response of both DBP and CPP to the first dose of epinephrine was highly predictive of return of spontaneous circulation. Given the clinical availability of DBP, these findings support its use as a surrogate for CPP to guide high-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation in this pediatric swine model.

Abstract
The Wolf Creek Conferences on Cardiac Arrest Resuscitation began in 1975, and have served as an important forum for thought leaders and scientists from industry and academia to come together with the common goal of advancing the field of cardiac arrest resuscitation. The Wolf Creek XVII Conference was hosted by the Max Harry Weil Institute of Critical Care Research and Innovation in Ann Arbor, Michigan on June 14-17, 2023. A new component of the conference was the Wolf Creek Innovator in Cardiac Arrest and Resuscitation Science Award competition. The competition was designed to recognize early career investigators from around the world who's science is challenging the current paradigms in the field. Finalists were selected by a panel of international experts and invited to present in-person at the conference. The winner was chosen by electronic vote of conference participants and awarded a $10,0000 cash prize. Finalists included Carolina Barbosa Maciel from the University of Florida, Adam Gottula from the University of Michigan, Rajat Kalra from the University of Minnesota, Ryan Morgan from the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Mitsuaki Nishikimi form Hiroshima University, and Jacob Sunshine from the University of Washington. Ryan Morgan from the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia was selected as the 2023 Wolf Creek Innovator Awardee. This manuscript provides a summary of the work presented by each of the finalists and provides a preview of the future of resuscitation science.

Associations Between End-Tidal Carbon Dioxide During Pediatric Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation, Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Quality, and Survival. Circulation 2024; 149:367-378. [PMID: 37929615 PMCID: PMC10841728 DOI: 10.1161/circulationaha.123.066659] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2023] [Accepted: 10/27/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Supported by laboratory and clinical investigations of adult cardiopulmonary arrest, resuscitation guidelines recommend monitoring end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) as an indicator of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) quality, but they note that "specific values to guide therapy have not been established in children." METHODS This prospective observational cohort study was a National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute-funded ancillary study of children in the ICU-RESUS trial (Intensive Care Unit-Resuscitation Project; NCT02837497). Hospitalized children (≤18 years of age and ≥37 weeks postgestational age) who received chest compressions of any duration for cardiopulmonary arrest, had an endotracheal or tracheostomy tube at the start of CPR, and evaluable intra-arrest ETCO2 data were included. The primary exposure was event-level average ETCO2 during the first 10 minutes of CPR (dichotomized as ≥20 mm Hg versus <20 mm Hg on the basis of adult literature). The primary outcome was survival to hospital discharge. Secondary outcomes were sustained return of spontaneous circulation, survival to discharge with favorable neurological outcome, and new morbidity among survivors. Poisson regression measured associations between ETCO2 and outcomes as well as the association between ETCO2 and other CPR characteristics: (1) invasively measured systolic and diastolic blood pressures, and (2) CPR quality and chest compression mechanics metrics (ie, time to CPR start; chest compression rate, depth, and fraction; ventilation rate). RESULTS Among 234 included patients, 133 (57%) had an event-level average ETCO2 ≥20 mm Hg. After controlling for a priori covariates, average ETCO2 ≥20 mm Hg was associated with a higher incidence of survival to hospital discharge (86/133 [65%] versus 48/101 [48%]; adjusted relative risk, 1.33 [95% CI, 1.04-1.69]; P=0.023) and return of spontaneous circulation (95/133 [71%] versus 59/101 [58%]; adjusted relative risk, 1.22 [95% CI, 1.00-1.49]; P=0.046) compared with lower values. ETCO2 ≥20 mm Hg was not associated with survival with favorable neurological outcome or new morbidity among survivors. Average 2 ≥20 mm Hg was associated with higher systolic and diastolic blood pressures during CPR, lower CPR ventilation rates, and briefer pre-CPR arrest durations compared with lower values. Chest compression rate, depth, and fraction did not differ between ETCO2 groups. CONCLUSIONS In this multicenter study of children with in-hospital cardiopulmonary arrest, ETCO2 ≥20 mm Hg was associated with better outcomes and higher intra-arrest blood pressures, but not with chest compression quality metrics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epinephrine is administered to increase coronary perfusion pressure during advanced life support and promote short-term survival. Recent cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) guidelines recommend an epinephrine dosing interval of 3 to 5 minutes during resuscitation; however, scientific evidence supporting this recommendation is lacking. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the hemodynamic effects of repeated epinephrine doses during CPR by monitoring augmented blood pressure after its administration in a swine model of cardiac arrest. METHODS AND RESULTS A secondary analysis of data from a published study was performed using a swine cardiac arrest model. The epinephrine dose was fixed at 1 mg, and the first dose of epinephrine was administered after no-flow and low-flow times of 2 minutes and 8 minutes, respectively, and subsequently administered every 4 minutes. Four cycles of dosing intervals were defined because a previous study was terminated 26 minutes after the induction of ventricular fibrillation. Augmented blood pressures and corresponding timelines were determined. Augmented blood pressure trends following cycles and the epinephrine effect duration were also monitored. Among the 140 CPR cycles, the augmented blood pressure after epinephrine administration was the highest during the first cycle of CPR and decreased gradually with further cycle repetitions. The epinephrine effect duration did not differ between repeated cycles. The maximum blood pressure was achieved 78 to 97 seconds after epinephrine administration. CONCLUSIONS Hemodynamic augmentation with repeated epinephrine administration during CPR decreased with cycle progression. Further studies are required to develop an epinephrine administration strategy to maintain its hemodynamic effects during prolonged resuscitation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES During pediatric cardiac arrest, contemporary guidelines recommend dosing epinephrine at regular intervals, including in patients requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). The impact of epinephrine-induced vasoconstriction on systemic afterload and venoarterial ECMO support is not well-defined. DESIGN Nested retrospective observational study within a single center. The primary exposure was time from last dose of epinephrine to initiation of ECMO flow; secondary exposures included cumulative epinephrine dose and arrest time. Systemic afterload was assessed by mean arterial pressure and use of systemic vasodilator therapy; ECMO pump flow and Vasoactive-Inotrope Score (VIS) were used as measures of ECMO support. Clearance of lactate was followed post-cannulation as a marker of systemic perfusion. SETTING PICU and cardiac ICU in a quaternary-care center. PATIENTS Patients 0-18 years old who required ECMO cannulation during resuscitation over the 6 years, 2014-2020. Patients were excluded if ECMO was initiated before cardiac arrest or if the resuscitation record was incomplete. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS A total of 92 events in 87 patients, with 69 events having complete data for analysis. The median (interquartile range) of total epinephrine dosing was 65 mcg/kg (37-101 mcg/kg), with the last dose given 6 minutes (2-16 min) before the initiation of ECMO flows. Shorter interval between last epinephrine dose and ECMO initiation was associated with increased use of vasodilators within 6 hours of ECMO ( p = 0.05), but not with mean arterial pressure after 1 hour of support (estimate, -0.34; p = 0.06). No other associations were identified between epinephrine delivery and mean arterial blood pressure, vasodilator use, pump speed, VIS, or lactate clearance. CONCLUSIONS There is limited evidence to support the idea that regular dosing of epinephrine during cardiac arrest is associated with increased in afterload after ECMO cannulation. Additional studies are needed to validate findings against ECMO flows and clinically relevant outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Though early hypotension after pediatric in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) is associated with inferior outcomes, ideal post-arrest blood pressure (BP) targets have not been established. We aimed to leverage prospectively collected BP data to explore the association of post-arrest BP thresholds with outcomes. We hypothesized that post-arrest systolic and diastolic BP thresholds would be higher than the currently recommended post-cardiopulmonary resuscitation BP targets and would be associated with higher rates of survival to hospital discharge. METHODS We performed a secondary analysis of prospectively collected BP data from the first 24 h following return of circulation from index IHCA events enrolled in the ICU-RESUScitation trial (NCT02837497). The lowest documented systolic BP (SBP) and diastolic BP (DBP) were percentile-adjusted for age, height and sex. Receiver operator characteristic curves and cubic spline analyses controlling for illness category and presence of pre-arrest hypotension were generated exploring the association of lowest post-arrest SBP and DBP with survival to hospital discharge and survival to hospital discharge with favorable neurologic outcome (Pediatric Cerebral Performance Category of 1-3 or no change from baseline). Optimal cutoffs for post-arrest BP thresholds were based on analysis of receiver operator characteristic curves and spline curves. Logistic regression models accounting for illness category and pre-arrest hypotension examined the associations of these thresholds with outcomes. RESULTS Among 693 index events with 0-6 h post-arrest BP data, identified thresholds were: SBP > 10th percentile and DBP > 50th percentile for age, sex and height. Fifty-one percent (n = 352) of subjects had lowest SBP above threshold and 50% (n = 346) had lowest DBP above threshold. SBP and DBP above thresholds were each associated with survival to hospital discharge (SBP: aRR 1.21 [95% CI 1.10, 1.33]; DBP: aRR 1.23 [1.12, 1.34]) and survival to hospital discharge with favorable neurologic outcome (SBP: aRR 1.22 [1.10, 1.35]; DBP: aRR 1.27 [1.15, 1.40]) (all p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Following pediatric IHCA, subjects had higher rates of survival to hospital discharge and survival to hospital discharge with favorable neurologic outcome when BP targets above a threshold of SBP > 10th percentile for age and DBP > 50th percentile for age during the first 6 h post-arrest.

The association of arterial blood pressure waveform-derived area duty cycle with intra-arrest hemodynamics and cardiac arrest outcomes. Resuscitation 2023; 191:109950. [PMID: 37634859 PMCID: PMC10829972 DOI: 10.1016/j.resuscitation.2023.109950] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2023] [Revised: 08/16/2023] [Accepted: 08/17/2023] [Indexed: 08/29/2023]
Abstract
AIM Develop a novel, physiology-based measurement of duty cycle (Arterial Blood Pressure-Area Duty Cycle [ABP-ADC]) and evaluate the association of ABP-ADC with intra-arrest hemodynamics and patient outcomes. METHODS This was a secondary retrospective study of prospectively collected data from the ICU-RESUS trial (NCT02837497). Invasive arterial waveform data were used to derive ABP-ADC. The primary exposure was ABP-ADC group (<30%; 30-35%; >35%). The primary outcome was systolic blood pressure (sBP). Secondary outcomes included intra-arrest physiologic goals, CPR quality targets, and patient outcomes. In an exploratory analysis, adjusted splines and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to determine an optimal ABP-ADC associated with improved hemodynamics and outcomes using a multivariable model. RESULTS Of 1129 CPR events, 273 had evaluable arterial waveform data. Mean age is 2.9 years + 4.9 months. Mean ABP-ADC was 32.5% + 5.0%. In univariable analysis, higher ABP-ADC was associated with lower sBP (p < 0.01) and failing to achieve sBP targets (p < 0.01). Other intra-arrest physiologic parameters, quality metrics, and patient outcomes were similar across ABP-ADC groups. Using spline/ROC analysis and clinical judgement, the optimal ABP-ADC cut point was set at 33%. On multivariable analysis, sBP was significantly higher (point estimate 13.18 mmHg, CI95 5.30-21.07, p < 0.01) among patients with ABP-ADC < 33%. Other intra-arrest physiologic and patient outcomes were similar. CONCLUSIONS In this multicenter cohort, a lower ABP-ADC was associated with higher sBPs during CPR. Although ABP-ADC was not associated with outcomes, further studies are needed to define the interactions between CPR mechanics and intra arrest patient physiology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have identified pulmonary hypertension (PH) as a relatively common diagnosis in children with in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA), and preclinical laboratory studies have found poor outcomes and low systemic blood pressures during CPR for PH-associated cardiac arrest. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of PH among children with IHCA and the association between PH diagnosis and intra-arrest physiology and survival outcomes. METHODS This was a prospectively designed secondary analysis of patients enrolled in the ICU-RESUS clinical trial (NCT02837497). The primary exposure was a pre-arrest diagnosis of PH. The primary survival outcome was survival to hospital discharge with favorable neurologic outcome (Pediatric Cerebral Performance Category score 1-3 or unchanged from baseline). The primary physiologic outcome was event-level average diastolic blood pressure (DBP) during CPR. RESULTS Of 1276 patients with IHCAs during the study period, 1129 index IHCAs were enrolled; 184 (16.3%) had PH and 101/184 (54.9%) were receiving inhaled nitric oxide at the time of IHCA. Survival with favorable neurologic outcome was similar between patients with and without PH on univariate (48.9% vs. 54.4%; p = 0.17) and multivariate analyses (aOR 0.82 [95%CI: 0.56, 1.20]; p = 0.32). There were no significant differences in CPR event outcome or survival to hospital discharge. Average DBP, systolic BP, and end-tidal carbon dioxide during CPR were similar between groups. CONCLUSIONS In this prospective study of pediatric IHCA, pre-existing PH was present in 16% of children. Pre-arrest PH diagnosis was not associated with statistically significant differences in survival outcomes or intra-arrest physiologic measures.
