Abstract:
Background: The 2015 CoSTR recommended that standard-dose epinephrine (SDE) was reasonable for patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) was reasonable rescue therapy for selected patients with ongoing cardiac arrest when initial conventional CPR was unsuccessful. We investigated the effect of prehospital SDE for patients who met the criteria of ECPR. Methods: From the All-Japan OHCA Utstein Registry between 2007 and 2015, we included 22,552 patients who met the criteria of ECPR of the SAVE-J study (age between 20 and 75, witnessed shockable OHCA, cardiac arrest on hospital arrival, cardiac etiology, and collapse-to-ECPR interval within 60 minutes). Study patients were divided into two groups according to prehospital SDE or not. Primary endpoint was favorable 30-day neurological outcome after OHCA. Results: Of the 22,552 study patients, 5,659 (25%) received prehospital SDE and 16,893 (75%) did not. The SDE group resulted in lower proportion of favorable 30-day neurological outcome than the no-SDE group (5.6% versus 8.4%, p 〈 0.001) with longer collapse-to-hospital-arrival interval (36.7±9.8 min vs. 29.6±11.3 min, p 〈 0.001). After adjustment for independent predictors of resuscitation, prehospital SDE did not impact on neurological benifit (adjusted OR,1.13; 95%CI,0.98-1.29), but the collapse-to-hospital-arrival interval was associated with neurological benefit (adjusted OR, 0.94; 95% CI, 0.93-0.95). In curve estimation of the SDE group, when collapse-to-hospital-arrival interval was delayed, proportion of the favorable neurological outcome decreased to about 25% at 1 minute and about 0% at 54 minutes (R=0.14). In the 274 patients undergoing ECPR of the SAVE-J study, however, it was about 43% at 1 minute and about 0% at 96 minutes (R=0.17). Conclusions: Prehospital SDE did not improve likelihood of favorable neurological outcome for patients who met the criteria of ECPR (age between 20 and 75, witnessed shockable OHCA, cardiac arrest on hospital arrival, cardiac etiology and collapse-to-ECPR interval within 60 minutes), because SED administration delayed the collapse-to-hospital-arrival interval which was closely related to the neurologically intact survival on ECPR.
