Résumé

Information on extracerebral system dysfunction is important for assessing the needs of critically ill patients after cardiac arrest. To describe the prevalence of organ dysfunction and patient severity after out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) using scores commonly used in intensive care and the association between these and mortality. Retrospective analysis of observational data collected in real time in a tertiary medical center where care withdrawal is mostly illegal. Adult patients after nontraumatic OHCA with ROSC who survived for more than two hours were included. Primary outcome-prevalence of organ failure, based on common definitions for organ dysfunction, in the 1 days of hospitalization. Secondary outcomes-rates of survival to hospital discharge and survival with a good neurological outcome (CPC 1 or 2), and associations between organ dysfunction SOFA and APACHE-II scores and outcomes. Associations were assessed using fisher's exact test for categorical variables and Mann-Whitney and T test for continuous variables. Multivariable models were also constructed for all measurements showing associations in previous tests. For severity scores compatibility, we used receiver-operating curve (ROC). Overall 369 patients (median age 75 years, 65% male) were included. Most arrests (64%) were witnessed, bystander CPR was provided in 15%. Median call to arrival time was 4 min. The presenting rhythm was asystole in 48% and VT/VF in 22%. Cardiovascular causes of arrest predominated (48%, n = 178). The median length of hospitalization was 5 days. Overall 28% of the patients (n = 98) survived to hospital discharge, mostly with a good neurological status (18.7%, n = 57). The rates of organ dysfunction were: hemodynamic instability 65% (n = 247), respiratory dysfunction 94% (n = 296), kidney dysfunction 70% (n = 259), hepatic dysfunction 14% (n = 50). The median SOFA score on day 1 was 9 and the median APACHE II score was 34. Modeling was limited by missing data. Neurological dysfunction (i.e. GCS and seizures) and kidney injury were consistently correlated with the outcomes in the multivariable models. Severity of critical illness assessed by above scoring systems correlated with mortality (all ROC curves had an AUC ranging between 0.728 and 0.849). Multiorgan failure is common after ROSC (1-4). Therefore, the management of patients after ROSC may require advanced multidisciplinary care. Scores describing the severity of critical illness should be routinely reported in resuscitation research. Our unique setting where withdrawal of care is illegal, allows assessment of extremely ill patients and may assist in defining margins for futility.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Information on extracerebral system dysfunction is important for assessing the needs of critically ill patients after cardiac arrest.
AIMS OBJECTIVE
To describe the prevalence of organ dysfunction and patient severity after out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) using scores commonly used in intensive care and the association between these and mortality.
METHODS METHODS
Retrospective analysis of observational data collected in real time in a tertiary medical center where care withdrawal is mostly illegal. Adult patients after nontraumatic OHCA with ROSC who survived for more than two hours were included. Primary outcome-prevalence of organ failure, based on common definitions for organ dysfunction, in the 1 days of hospitalization. Secondary outcomes-rates of survival to hospital discharge and survival with a good neurological outcome (CPC 1 or 2), and associations between organ dysfunction SOFA and APACHE-II scores and outcomes. Associations were assessed using fisher's exact test for categorical variables and Mann-Whitney and T test for continuous variables. Multivariable models were also constructed for all measurements showing associations in previous tests. For severity scores compatibility, we used receiver-operating curve (ROC).
RESULTS RESULTS
Overall 369 patients (median age 75 years, 65% male) were included. Most arrests (64%) were witnessed, bystander CPR was provided in 15%. Median call to arrival time was 4 min. The presenting rhythm was asystole in 48% and VT/VF in 22%. Cardiovascular causes of arrest predominated (48%, n = 178). The median length of hospitalization was 5 days. Overall 28% of the patients (n = 98) survived to hospital discharge, mostly with a good neurological status (18.7%, n = 57). The rates of organ dysfunction were: hemodynamic instability 65% (n = 247), respiratory dysfunction 94% (n = 296), kidney dysfunction 70% (n = 259), hepatic dysfunction 14% (n = 50). The median SOFA score on day 1 was 9 and the median APACHE II score was 34. Modeling was limited by missing data. Neurological dysfunction (i.e. GCS and seizures) and kidney injury were consistently correlated with the outcomes in the multivariable models. Severity of critical illness assessed by above scoring systems correlated with mortality (all ROC curves had an AUC ranging between 0.728 and 0.849).
CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
Multiorgan failure is common after ROSC (1-4). Therefore, the management of patients after ROSC may require advanced multidisciplinary care. Scores describing the severity of critical illness should be routinely reported in resuscitation research. Our unique setting where withdrawal of care is illegal, allows assessment of extremely ill patients and may assist in defining margins for futility.
