Abstract
BACKGROUND: The objective of this study was to determine if regional cerebral oximetry (rSO2) assessed during CPR would be predictive of survival with favorable neurological function in a prolonged model of porcine cardiac arrest. This study also examined the relative predictive value of rSO2 and end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2), separately and together.
METHODS: This study is a post-hoc analysis of data from a previously published study that compared conventional CPR (C-CPR) and automated head-up positioning CPR (AHUP-CPR). Following 10 min of untreated ventricular fibrillation, 14 pigs were treated with either C-CPR (C-CPR) or AHUP-CPR. rSO2, ETCO2, and other hemodynamic parameters were measured continuously. Pigs were defibrillated after 19 min of CPR. Neurological function was assessed 24 h later.
RESULTS: There were 7 pigs in the neurologically intact group and 7 pigs in the poor outcomes group. Within 6 min of starting CPR, the mean difference in rSO2 by 95% confidence intervals between the groups became statistically significant (p < 0.05). The receiver operating curve for rSO2 to predict survival with favorable neurological function reached a maximal area under the curve value after 6 min of CPR (1.0). The correlation coefficient between rSO2 and ETCO2 during CPR increased towards 1.0 over time. The combined predictive value of both parameters was similar to either parameter alone.
CONCLUSION: Significantly higher rSO2 values were observed within less than 6 min after starting CPR in the pigs that survived versus those that died. rSO2 values were highly predictive of survival with favorable neurological function.
