Predictors and Outcome of Early-Onset Pneumonia After Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Early-onset pneumonia (EOP) after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is frequently observed. Causative factors are loss of airway protection during cardiac arrest, pulmonary contusion, and emergency airway management. We assessed the incidence, risk factors, and clinical course of EOP, and evaluated the impact of an early exchange of the prehospitally inserted endotracheal tube (ETT). METHODS: In our retrospective analysis we included 104 consecutive subjects admitted to our ICU after out-of-hospital c… Show more

“…26 In a recent small cohort of patients after OHCA, the occurrence of EOP was not associated with predisposing factors, such as witnessed aspiration or emergency airway access. 27 On the other hand, post-anoxic seizures and prolonged mechanical ventilation have been suggested as independent risk factors for pneumonia in a recent cohort of 123 OHCA survivors. However, early and late-onset pneumonia were collectively analyzed.…”

“…the signs of systemic inflammatory response syndrome after ROSC that mimic sepsis and the introduction of therapeutic hypothermia that impairs the leukocyte function, may increase the risk of pneumonia and masks the fever response [6]. The rate of early onset pneumonia is associated with the longer need of mechanical ventilation and the length of ICU stay [7]. We summarized the pulmonary complications and associated pathophysiology in patients with cardiac arrest in table 1.…”

“…Kardiyak arrest ve KPR sonrası birçok mekanizma hastaları pulmoner komplikasyonlara yatkın hale getirmektedir. Havayolu koruma mekanizmalarının kaybı, koma, pulmoner kontüzyon, acil havayolu yönetimi ve mekanik ventilasyon pulmoner enfeksiyon açısından riski arttıran faktörlerdir (2). KPR sonrası ilk 12 saat içinde hastaların %39'unda bakteriyemi geliştiği gösterilmiştir.…”
