Less than half of the thousands of children who suffer in-hospital cardiac arrests annually survive, and neurologic injury is common among survivors. Hemodynamic-directed cardiopulmonary resuscitation improves short-term survival, but its impact on longer term survival and mitochondrial respiration-a potential neurotherapeutic target-remains unknown. The primary objectives of this study were to compare rates of 24-hour survival with favorable neurologic outcome after cardiac arrest treated with hemodynamic-directed cardiopulmonary resuscitation versus standard depth-guided cardiopulmonary resuscitation and to compare brain and heart mitochondrial respiration between groups 24 hours after resuscitation.
Randomized preclinical large animal trial.
A large animal resuscitation laboratory at a large academic children's hospital.
Twenty-eight 4-week-old female piglets (8-11 kg).
Twenty-two swine underwent 7 minutes of asphyxia followed by ventricular fibrillation and randomized treatment with either hemodynamic-directed cardiopulmonary resuscitation (n = 10; compression depth titrated to aortic systolic pressure of 90 mm Hg, vasopressors titrated to coronary perfusion pressure ≥ 20 mm Hg) or depth-guided cardiopulmonary resuscitation (n = 12; depth 1/3 chest diameter, epinephrine every 4 min). Six animals (sham group) underwent anesthesia and instrumentation without cardiac arrest. The primary outcomes were favorable neurologic outcome (swine Cerebral Performance Category ≤ 2) and mitochondrial maximal oxidative phosphorylation utilizing substrate for complex I and complex II (OXPHOSCI+CII) in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus.
Favorable neurologic outcome was more likely with hemodynamic-directed cardiopulmonary resuscitation (7/10) than depth-guided cardiopulmonary resuscitation (1/12; p = 0.006). Hemodynamic-directed cardiopulmonary resuscitation resulted in higher intra-arrest coronary perfusion pressure, aortic pressures, and brain tissue oxygenation. Hemodynamic-directed cardiopulmonary resuscitation resulted in higher OXPHOSCI+CII (pmol oxygen/s × mg/citrate synthase) in the cortex (6.00 ± 0.28 vs 3.88 ± 0.43; p < 0.05) and hippocampus (6.26 ± 0.67 vs 3.55 ± 0.65; p < 0.05) and higher complex I respiration (pmol oxygen/s × mg) in the right (20.62 ± 1.06 vs 15.88 ± 0.81; p < 0.05) and left ventricles (20.14 ± 1.40 vs 14.17 ± 1.53; p < 0.05).
In a model of asphyxia-associated pediatric cardiac arrest, hemodynamic-directed cardiopulmonary resuscitation increases rates of 24-hour survival with favorable neurologic outcome, intra-arrest hemodynamics, and cerebral and myocardial mitochondrial respiration.
