Abstract
Introduction Physiology-guided cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) offers the potential to optimize resuscitation and enable early prognosis. Methods Physiology-Guided CPR was one of six focus topic for the Wolf Creek XVII Conference held on June 14-17, 2023 in Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA. International thought leaders and scientists in the field of cardiac arrest resuscitation from academia and industry were invited. Participants submitted via online survey knowledge gaps, barriers to translation and research priorities for each focus topic. Expert panels used the survey results and their own perspectives and insights to create and present a preliminary unranked list for each category, which was then debated, revised and ranked by all attendees to identify the top 5 for each category. Results Top knowledge gaps include identifying optimal strategies for the evaluation of physiology-guided CPR and the optimal values for existing patients using patient outcomes. The main barriers to translation are the limited usability outside of critical care environments and the training and equipment required for monitoring. The top research priorities are the development of clinically feasible and reliable methods to continuously and non-invasively monitor physiology during CPR and prospective human studies proving targeting parameters during CPR improves outcomes. Conclusion Physiology-guided CPR has the potential to provide individualized resuscitation and move away from a one-size-fits-all approach. Current understanding is limited, and clinical trials are lacking. Future developments need to consider the clinical application and applicability of measurement to all healthcare settings. Therefore, clinical trials using physiology-guided CPR for individualisation of resuscitation efforts are needed.

Htet NN, Jafari D, Walker JA, Pourmand A, Shaw A, Dinh K, Tran QK. Trend of Outcome Metrics in Recent Out-of-Hospital-Cardiac-Arrest Research: A Narrative Review of Clinical Trials. J Clin Med 2023; 12:7196. [PMID: 38002808 PMCID: PMC10672249 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12227196] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2023] [Revised: 11/10/2023] [Accepted: 11/13/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) research traditionally focuses on survival. In 2018, the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) proposed more patient-centered outcomes. Our narrative review assessed clinical trials after 2018 to identify the trends of outcome metrics in the field OHCA research. We performed a search of the PubMed database from 1 January 2019 to 22 September 2023. Prospective clinical trials involving adult humans were eligible. Studies that did not report any patient-related outcomes or were not available in full-text or English language were excluded. The articles were assessed for demographic information and primary and secondary outcomes. We included 89 studies for analysis. For the primary outcome, 31 (35%) studies assessed neurocognitive functions, and 27 (30%) used survival. For secondary outcomes, neurocognitive function was present in 20 (22%) studies, and survival was present in 10 (11%) studies. Twenty-six (29%) studies used both survival and neurocognitive function. Since the publication of the COSCA guidelines in 2018, there has been an increased focus on neurologic outcomes. Although survival outcomes are used frequently, we observed a trend toward fewer studies with ROSC as a primary outcome. There were no quality-of-life assessments, suggesting a need for more studies with patient-centered outcomes that can inform the guidelines for cardiac-arrest management.

Bengio M, Goodwin G, Scumpia A. A Review of CPR Augmentation Devices. Cureus 2023; 15:e37350.

Abstract
The study aims to assess cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) outcomes in cardiac arrest patients when using CPR augmentation devices, such as the ZOLL ResQCPR system (Chelmsford, MA) or its components ResQPUMP and ResQPOD, which are manual active compression-decompression (ACD) device and impedance threshold device (ITD), respectively. The analysis included a Google Scholar-based literature review that took place between January 2015 and March 2023 and included recent publications with PubMed IDs or widely cited articles to assess the effectiveness of the ResQPUMP and ResQPOD or similar devices. This review also includes studies quoted by ZOLL, but those were not considered in our conclusion since the authors were employed by ZOLL. We found that in a study on human cadavers, the force of decompression increased the chest compliance of the chest wall by 30%-50% (p<0.05). Essentially, active compression-decompression improved the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) with meaningful neurologic outcomes by 50% in a blinded, randomized, and controlled human trial (n=1,653; p<0.02). The main study on the ResQPOD had a controversial human data pool with one randomized and controlled study arguing for no significant difference with or without the device (n=8,718; p=0.71). However, a post hoc analysis and the reorganization of the data by CPR quality demonstrated significance (n decreased to 2,799, reported in odds ratio without specific p-values). In conclusion to the limited number of studies presented, any manual ACD device is a great alternative to standard cardiopulmonary resuscitation regarding survivability with good neurologic function and should be utilized in prehospital emergency medical services and hospital emergency departments. ITDs are still controversial but promising with more future data.

[PMID: 36983236 PMCID: PMC10054058 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12062235] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2023] [Revised: 03/08/2023] [Accepted: 03/12/2023] [Indexed: 03/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Cardiac arrest, one of the leading causes of death, accounts for numerous clinical studies published each year. This review summarizes the findings of all the randomized controlled clinical trials (RCT) on cardiac arrest published in the year 2022. The RCTs are presented according to the following categories: out-of- and in-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA, IHCA) and post-cardiac arrest care. Interestingly, more than 80% of the RCTs encompassed advanced life support and post-cardiac arrest care, while no studies focused on the treatment of IHCA, except for one that, however, explored the temperature control after resuscitation in this population. Surprisingly, 9 out of 11 RCTs led to neutral results demonstrating equivalency between the newly tested interventions compared to current practice. One trial was negative, showing that oxygen titration in the immediate pre-hospital post-resuscitation period decreased survival compared to a more liberal approach. One RCT was positive and introduced new defibrillation strategies for refractory cardiac arrest. Overall, data from the 2022 RCTs discussed here provide a solid basis to generate new hypotheses to be tested in future clinical studies.

Injuries associated with mechanical chest compressions and active decompressions after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: A subgroup analysis of non-survivors from a randomized study. Resusc Plus 2023; 13:100362. [PMID: 36798487 PMCID: PMC9926013 DOI: 10.1016/j.resplu.2023.100362] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2022] [Revised: 01/08/2023] [Accepted: 01/18/2023] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Both skeletal and visceral injuries are reported after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). This subgroup analysis of a randomized clinical study describes/compares autopsy documented injury patterns caused by two mechanical, piston-based chest compression devices: standard LUCAS® 2 (control) and LUCAS® 2 with active decompression (AD, intervention) in non-survivors with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (CA). Method We compared injuries documented by autopsies (medical/forensic) after control and intervention CPR based on written relatives consent to use patients' data. The pathologists were blinded for the device used. The cause of CA and injuries reported were based on a prespecified study autopsy template. We used Pearson's chi-squared test and logistic regression analysis with an alpha level of 0.05. Results 221 patients were included in the main study (April 2015-April 2017) and 207 did not survive. Of these, 114 (55%, 64 control and 50 intervention) underwent medical (N = 73) or forensic (N = 41) autopsy. The cause of CA was cardiac 53%, respiratory 17%, overdose/intoxication 14%, ruptured aorta 10%, neurological 1%, and other 5%. There were no differences between control and intervention in the incidence of rib fractures (67% vs 72%; p-value = 0.58), or sternal fractures (44% vs 48%; p-value = 0.65), respectively. The most frequent non-skeletal complication was bleeding (26% of all patients) and intrathoracic was the most common location. Ten of the 114 patients had internal organ injuries, where lungs were most affected. Conclusion In non-survivors of OHCA patients, the most frequent cause of cardiac arrest was cardiogenic. Skeletal and non-skeletal fractures/injuries were found in both control and intervention groups. Bleeding was the most common non-skeletal complication. Internal organ injuries were rare.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Mechanical chest compression devices play an important role in assisting patients undergoing cardiac arrest. However, this equipment induces an aerosol-generating procedure that could contaminate hospital staff. The development of a remote control system for mechanical chest compression devices may solve the problem; however, there are currently no studies regarding the efficacy of this system.
AIM: This study aims to analyze efficacy of remote control systems for mechanical chest compression devices and compare it with non-remote control systems.
METHODS: This was an analytical cross-sectional study at Srinagarind Hospital, Thailand. Data were collected in two periods of the study. The first period was between January and December 2021 using a non-remote control system to operate the mechanical chest compression device. The second period was from January to April 2022 and collected data on the use of a remote control system.
RESULTS: Sixty-four participants were examined over the 16-month period of the study. A total of 53.1% (n = 34) of participants were male and the mean age of the patients was 52.4 ± 5.1 years old. The number of emergency medical service members (EMS) needed for resuscitation in the remote control group was less than the non-remote control group (3 vs. 5; p = 0.040). The number of emergency department (ED) members needed for resuscitation in the remote control group was four compared with eight in the non-remote control group.
CONCLUSIONS: The remote controlled mechanical chest compression device can effectively reduce the number of staff working both in the EMS and in the ED of the hospital, thus reducing exposure and contamination from aerosol-generating procedure. It was also proven accurate in terms of rate and depth of chest compression according to resuscitation guidelines.
