• Arterial blood gas analysis (ABGA) is one of the few tests performed during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). There have been some studies on the prediction of survival outcomes in adult out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients during CPR using ABGA results. However, in pediatric OHCA patients, the prognosis of survival outcome based on ABGA results during CPR remains unclear. We retrospectively analyzed prospectively collected data from the Korean Cardiac Arrest Resuscitation Consortium (KoCARC) registry, a multicenter OHCA registry of Republic of Korea. We analyzed 108 pediatric (age < 19 years) OHCA patients between October 2015 and June 2022. Using multivariable logistic regression, an adjusted odds ratio (aOR) was obtained to validate the ABGA results of survival to hospital admission and survival to discharge. The variables associated with survival to hospital admission were non-comorbidities (aOR 3.03, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.22-7.53, = 0.017) and PaO > 45.750 mmHg (aOR 2.69, 95% CI 1.13-6.42, = 0.026). There was no variable that was statistically significant association with survival to discharge. PaO > 47.750 mmHg and non-comorbidities may serve as an independent prognostic factor for survival to hospital admission in pediatric OHCA patients. However, the number of cases analyzed in our study was relatively small, and there have been few studies investigating the association between ABGA results during CPR and the survival outcome of pediatric OHCA patients. Therefore, further large-scale studies are needed.
