Abstract
The current landscape of therapeutic strategies for subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), a significant adverse neurological event commonly resulting from the rupture of intracranial aneurysms, is rapidly evolving. Through an in-depth exploration of the natural history of SAH, historical treatment approaches, and emerging management modalities, the present work aims to provide a broad overview of the shifting paradigms in SAH care. By synthesizing the historical management protocols with contemporary therapeutic advancements, patient-specific treatment plans can be individualized and optimized to deliver outstanding care for the best possible SAH-related outcomes.

Ochiai K, Otomo Y. Factors influencing deviation from target temperature during targeted temperature management in postcardiac arrest patients. Open Heart 2023; 10:e002459. [PMID: 38101858 PMCID: PMC10729178 DOI: 10.1136/openhrt-2023-002459] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2023] [Accepted: 11/09/2023] [Indexed: 12/17/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Targeted temperature management (TTM) is a recommended therapy for postcardiac arrest patients. Hyperthermia worsened the patient outcome, and overcooling increased the incidence of complications; therefore, a high-quality TTM is required. The target temperature tended to be modified worldwide after the TTM trial in 2013. Our institute modified the target temperature to 35°C in 2017. This study aimed to compare the conventional and modified protocols, assess the relationship between target temperature deviation and patient outcomes, and identify the factors influencing temperature deviation. METHODS This single-centre, retrospective, observational study included adult out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients who underwent TTM between April 2013 and October 2019. We compared the conventional and modified protocol groups to evaluate the difference in the background characteristics and details on TTM. Subsequently, we assessed the relationship of deviation (>±0.5°C, >37°C, or<33°C) rates from the target temperature with mortality and neurological outcomes. We assessed the factors that influenced the deviation from the target temperature. RESULTS Temperature deviation was frequently observed in the conventional protocol group (p=0.012), and the modified protocol group required higher doses of neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) during TTM (p=0.016). Other background data, completion of protocol, incidence of complications, mortality and rate of favourable neurological outcomes were not significantly different. The performance rate of TTM was significantly higher in the modified group than in the conventional protocol group (p<0.001). Temperature deviation did not have an impact on the outcomes. Age, sex, body surface area, NMBA doses and type of cooling device were the factors influencing temperature deviation. CONCLUSIONS A target temperature of 35°C might be acceptable and easily attainable if shivering of the patients was well controlled using NMBAs. Temperature deviation did not have an impact on outcomes. The identified factors influencing deviation from target temperature might be useful for ensuring a high-quality TTM.

Abstract
Introduction The risk-benefit profile of therapeutic hypothermia is controversial with several randomized controlled trials providing conflicting results. Aim of Study The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to determine if therapeutic hypothermia provides beneficial neurologic outcomes relative to adverse effects. Material and Methods MEDLINE and EMBASE databases were searched for randomized controlled trials of post-cardiac arrest patients comparing therapeutic hypothermia (~33 degrees Celsius) to normothermia or the standard of care (36 - 38 degrees Celsius). Data were collected using the Covidence systematic review software. Statistical analysis was performed by Review Manager software. Risk of bias, sensitivity, and heterogeneity were analyzed using the Cochran's Collaboration tool, trial sequential analysis (TSA) software, and I2 statistic respectively. Results A total of 1825 studies were screened and 5 studies (n=3614) were included. No significant differences existed between the hypothermia group and normothermia for favorable neurologic outcome (risk ratio [RR] 1.17, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.97 to 1.41) or all-cause mortality (RR 0.97, 95% CI 0.89 to 1.05). When compared to normothermia, the hypothermia group had greater risk of adverse effects (RR 1.16, 95% CI 1.04 to 1.28), which was driven by the onset of arrhythmias. Subgroup analyses revealed that therapeutic hypothermia provided greater neurologic benefit in trials with a higher percentage of subjects with shockable rhythms (RR 0.73, 95% CI 0.6 to 0.88). Trial sequential analysis revealed statistical futility for therapeutic hypothermia and favorable neurologic outcome, mortality, and adverse effects. Conclusions Therapeutic hypothermia does not provide consistent benefit in neurologic outcome or mortality in the general cardiac arrest population. Patients with shockable rhythms may show favorable neurologic outcome with therapeutic hypothermia and further investigation in this population is warranted. Any potential benefit associated with therapeutic hypothermia must be weighed against the increased risk of adverse effects, particularly the onset of arrhythmias.

Abstract
Therapeutic hypothermia (TH) is a common and effective technique to reduce inflammation and induce neuroprotection across a variety of diseases. Focal TH of the brain can avoid the side effects of systemic cooling. The degree and extent of focal TH are a function of cooling probe design and local brain thermoregulation processes. To refine focal TH probe design, with application-specific optimization, we develop precise computational models of brain thermodynamics under intense local cooling. Here, we present a novel multiphysics in silico model that can accurately predict brain response to focal cooling. The model was parameterized from previously described values of metabolic activity, thermal conductivity, and temperature-dependent cerebral perfusion. The model was validated experimentally using data from clinical cases where local cooling was induced intracranially and brain temperatures monitored in real-time with MR thermometry. The validated model was then used to identify optimal design probe parameters to maximize volumetric TH, including considering three stratifications of cooling (mild, moderate, and profound) to produce Volume of Tissue Cooled (VOTC) maps. We report cooling radius increases in a nearly linear fashion with probe length and decreasing probe surface temperature.

Abstract
Background Temperature modulating devices (TMD) currently utilize core temperature measurements during targeted temperature management (TTM) that are currently limited to esophageal (Et), bladder (Bt), or rectal (Rt) temperatures. We assessed the ability of a continuous noninvasive temperature monitor to accurately approximate core temperature during TTM. Methods All patients undergoing TTM using a gel pad surface TMD and an existing core temperature monitoring device were eligible for this study. Core and continuous noninvasive temperature monitoring values were simultaneously recorded for up to 72 h of TTM. The two sets of temperature data were downloaded from a clinical data acquisition storage system at 1-min intervals. The Bland–Altman method assessed agreement between the core and continuous noninvasive temperature monitor values, by measuring the mean difference (± 2 SD) between these values. Results There were 20 subjects that underwent study between January 2018 and March 2018 (55% women, age: 57 ± 14 years old, BMI: 28.9 + 9.8 kg/m2, 100% mechanically ventilated). The comparison patient temperature source was predominantly esophageal (n = 10) followed by bladder (n = 5) or rectal (n = 5). There were a total of 999 h of paired patient temperature data from esophageal (50%), bladder (25%), and rectal (25%) temperatures. Bland–Altman analysis demonstrated good agreement with the superficial temperature monitor and core temperature measures in all patients overall, with a difference mean of 0.06 ± 0.39 C (P = 0.99) and no proportional bias noted (β =0.002, P = 0.917). Conclusions Continuous noninvasive temperature monitoring is a suitable alternative method for assessing core temperature during TTM. Future studies should focus on developing connectivity with a continuous noninvasive temperature monitor to approximate core temperature during TTM.

Abstract
Targeted temperature management (TTM) is recommended for comatose patients after out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCAs). Even after successful TTM, several factors could influence the neuroprotective effect of TTM. The aim of this study is to identify prognostic factors associated with good neurological outcomes in TTM recipients.This study used nationwide data during 2012 to 2016 to investigate prognostic factors associated with good neurological outcomes in patients who received TTM after the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). Multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to analyse the factors that may affect the neurological outcomes in the TTM recipients.The study included 1578 eligible patients, comprising 767 with good and 811 with poor neurological outcomes. Multivariable analyses showed that OHCA in public places (OR, 1.599; 95% CI, 1.100-2.323, P = .014), initial shockable rhythms (OR, 1.721; 95% CI, 1.191-2.486, P = .004), pre-hospital ROSCs (OR, 6.748; 95% CI, 4.703-9.682, P < .001), bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) (OR, 1.715; 95% CI, 1.200-2.450, P = .003), and primary coronary interventions (PCIs) (OR, 2.488; 95% CI, 1.639-3.778, P < .001) were statistically significantly associated with good neurological outcomes. Whereas, increase of age (OR, 0.962; 95% CI, 0.950-0.974, P < .001) and conventional cooling (OR, 0.478; 95% CI, 0.255-0.895, P = .021) were statistically significantly associated with poor neurological outcome.This study suggests that being younger, experiencing OHCA in public places, having initial shockable rhythm, pre-hospital ROSC, and bystander CPR, implementing PCIs and applying intravascular or surface cooling devices compared to conventional cooling method could predict good neurological outcomes in post-cardiac arrest patients who received TTM.
