[PMID: 33766663 DOI: 10.1016/j.resuscitation.2021.03.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2020] [Revised: 02/26/2021] [Accepted: 03/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To synthetize the evidence regarding the effect of constant flow insufflation of oxygen (CFIO) on the rate of return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and other clinical outcomes during cardiac arrest (CA). METHODS A systematic review was performed using four databases (PROSPERO: CRD42020071960). Studies reporting on adult CA patients or on animal models simulating CA and assessing the effect of CFIO on ROSC or other clinical outcomes were considered. RESULTS A total of 3540 citations were identified, of which 16 studies were included. Four studies (two randomized controlled trials (RCT), two cohort studies), reported on humans while 12 studies used animal models. No meta-analysis was performed due to clinical heterogeneity. There were no differences in the ROSC (18.9% vs 20.8%, p = 0.99; 27.1% vs 21.3%, p = 0.51) and sustained ROSC rates (16.1% vs 17.3%, p = 0.81; 12.5% vs 14.9%, p = 0.73) with CFIO compared to intermitant positive pressure ventilation (IPPV) in the two human RCTs. Survival to ICU discharge was similar between CFIO (2.3%) and IPPV (2.3%) in the largest RCT (p = 0.96). Human studies were at serious or high risk of bias. In animal models' studies, ROSC rates were presented in seven RCTs. CFIO was superior to IPPV in one trial, but was associated with similar ROSC rates using different ventilation strategies in the remaining six studies. CONCLUSIONS No definitive association between CFIO and ROSC, sustained ROSC or survival compared to other ventilation strategies could be demonstrated. Future studies should assess CFIO effect on post-survival neurological functions and patient-important CA outcomes.

Abstract
Pasquier, Mathieu, Evelien Cools, Ken Zafren, Pierre-Nicolas Carron, Vincent Frochaux, and Valentin Rousson. Vital signs in accidental hypothermia. High Alt Med Biol. 22: 142-147, 2021. Background: Clinical indicators are used to stage hypothermia and to guide management of hypothermic patients. We sought to better characterize the influence of hypothermia on vital signs, including level of consciousness, by studying cases of patients suffering from accidental hypothermia. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively included patients aged ≥18 years admitted to the hospital with a core temperature below 35°C. We identified the cases from a literature review and from a retrospective case series of hypothermic patients admitted to the hospital between 1994 and 2016. Patients who experienced cardiac arrest, as well as those with potential confounders such as concomitant diseases or intoxications, were excluded. Relationships between core temperature and heart rate, systolic blood pressure, respiratory rate, and level of consciousness were explored via correlations and regression. Results: Of the 305 cases reviewed, 216 met the criteria for inclusion. The mean temperature was 29.7°C ± 4.2°C (range 19.3°C-34.9°C). The relationships between temperature and each of the four vital signs were generally linear and significantly positive, with Spearman correlations for respiratory rate, heart rate, systolic blood pressure, and Glasgow Coma Score (GCS) of 0.29 (p = 0.024), 0.44 (p < 0.001), 0.47 (p < 0.001), and 0.78 (p < 0.001), respectively. Based on linear regression, the mean decrease of a vital sign associated with a 1°C decrease of temperature was estimated to be 0.50 minute-1 for respiratory rate, 2.54 minutes-1 for heart rate, 4.36 mmHg for systolic blood pressure, and 0.88 for GCS. Conclusions: There is a significant positive correlation between core temperature and heart rate, systolic blood pressure, respiratory rate, and GCS. The relationship between vital signs and temperature is generally linear. This knowledge might help clinicians make appropriate decisions when determining whether the clinical condition of a patient should be attributed to hypothermia. This could enhance clinical care and help to guide future research.

Abstract
L’hypothermie accidentelle est définie comme une baisse non intentionnelle de la température centrale du corps en dessous de 35 °C. La prévention de l’hypothermie est essentielle. La mesure de la température centrale est nécessaire au diagnostic d’hypothermie et permet d’en juger la sévérité. En présence de signes de vie, et en présence d’une hypothermie pure, l’instabilité hémodynamique apparente ne devrait en principe pas faire l’objet d’une prise en charge spécifique. Un risque d’arrêt cardiaque (AC) est présent si la température chute en dessous de 30–32 °C. En raison du risque d’AC, un patient hypotherme devrait bénéficier de l’application d’un monitoring avant toute mobilisation, laquelle devra être prudente. En cas d’AC, seule la mesure de la température oesophagienne est fiable. Si l’hypothermie est suspectée comme étant potentiellement responsable de l’AC du patient, celui-ci doit être transporté sous réanimation cardiopulmonaire vers un hôpital disposant d’une méthode de réchauffement par circulation extracorporelle (CEC). La valeur de la kaliémie ainsi que les autres paramètres à disposition (âge, sexe, valeur de la température corporelle, durée du low flow, présence d’une asphyxie) permettront de décider de l’indication d’une CEC de réchauffement. Le pronostic des patients victimes d’un AC sur hypothermie est potentiellement excellent, y compris sur le plan neurologique.

An evaluation of the Swiss staging model for hypothermia using hospital cases and case reports from the literature. Scand J Trauma Resusc Emerg Med 2019; 27:60. [PMID: 31171019 PMCID: PMC6555718 DOI: 10.1186/s13049-019-0636-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2019] [Accepted: 05/21/2019] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Swiss staging model for hypothermia uses clinical indicators to stage hypothermia and guide the management of hypothermic patients. The proposed temperature range for clinical stage 1 is < 35-32 °C, for stage 2 is < 32-28 °C, for stage 3 is < 28-24 °C, and for stage 4 is below 24 °C. Our previous study using 183 case reports from the literature showed that the measured temperature only corresponded to the clinical stage in the Swiss staging model in approximately 50% of cases. This study, however, included few patients with moderate hypothermia. We aimed to expand this database by adding cases of hypothermic patients admitted to hospital to perform a more comprehensive evaluation of the staging model. METHODS We retrospectively included patients aged ≥18 y admitted to hospital between 1.1.1994 and 15.7.2016 with a core temperature below 35 °C. We added the cases identified through our previously published literature review to estimate the percentage of those patients who were correctly classified and compare the theoretical with the observed temperature ranges for each clinical stage. RESULTS We included 305 cases (122 patients from the hospital sampling and the 183 previously published). Using the theoretically derived temperature ranges for clinical stages resulted in 185/305 (61%) patients being assigned to the correct temperature range. Temperature was overestimated using the clinical stage in 55/305 cases (18%) and underestimated in 65/305 cases (21%); important overlaps in temperature existed among the four stage groups. The optimal temperature thresholds for discriminating between the four stages (32.1 °C, 27.5 °C, and 24.1 °C) were close to those proposed historically (32 °C, 28 °C, and 24 °C). CONCLUSIONS Our results provide further evidence of the relationship between the clinical state of patients and their temperature. The historical proposed temperature thresholds were almost optimal for discriminating between the different stages. Adding overlapping temperature ranges for each clinical stage might help clinicians to make appropriate decisions when using clinical signs to infer temperature. An update of the Swiss staging model for hypothermia including our methodology and findings could positively impact clinical care and future research.
