Postresuscitation myocardial dysfunction: correlated factors and prognostic implications

Abstract: Postresuscitation left ventricular dysfunction is correlated with a number of clinical factors, among which past history of myocardial infarction, epinephrine dose, and the cause of cardiac arrest play independent roles. Meanwhile, IVRT 100 ms or longer 6 h postresuscitation predicts poor survival outcomes and serves as a marker of poor prognosis.

“…CA and CPR constitute a major problem both in-and out-ofhospital (Chang et al, 2007;Nichol et al, 2008;Peberdy et al, 2010;Rea et al, 2004;Thom et al, 2006). Routinely used vasopressors (e.g., vasopressin, epinephrine, or their combination), albeit have beneficial effects in the initial phase of CPR, exacerbate myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury and fail to significantly improve survival and neurological outcome to hospital discharge (Lin et al, 2014;Yu et al, 2013).…”

“…Generally, these patients die for brain and cardiovascular damage, as a consequence of global ischemia/reperfusion injuries, and a high percentage of survivors have moderate to severe cognitive deficits in the months following resuscitation (Chang et al, 2007;Peberdy et al, 2010). Epinephrine is routinely used during chest compression to improve return to spontaneous circulation, being able to augment both aortic diastolic and coronary perfusion pressures (Lin et al, 2014;Ornato, 2008;Paradis et al, 1991).…”

“…1 Experimental and clinical data have established that postarrest left ventricular dysfunction is common and is a major contributor to postresuscitation mortality. [5][6][7][8]19,20 It therefore should not be surprising that moderate and severe prearrest left ventricular dysfunction can lead to worse postarrest LVEF and ultimately worse survival rates. In the present study, among 350 survivors with initial ROSC Ͼ20 minutes, 147 patients were alive 72 hours after resuscitation, and postarrest quantitative echocardiograms were performed in 84 of them (57%).…”

“…Early arterial hypotension is common and is associated with increased in-hospital mortality [1,3,4]. It is characterised by hypovolaemia [5], reversible myocardial stunning [4][5][6] and excessive vasodilation [7,8]. In addition to this pattern of complex haemodynamic instability, pulmonary dysfunction after cardiac arrest is common [3].…”
