Outcome and current status of therapeutic hypothermia after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in Korea using data from the Korea Hypothermia Network registry

ObjectiveTherapeutic hypothermia (TH) has become the standard strategy for reducing brain damage in the postresuscitation period. The aim of this study was to investigate current TH performance and outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) survivors using data from the Korean Hypothermia Net...

description ObjectiveTherapeutic hypothermia (TH) has become the standard strategy for reducing brain damage in the postresuscitation period. The aim of this study was to investigate current TH performance and outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) survivors using data from the Korean Hypothermia Network (KORHN) registry. MethodsWe used the KORHN registry, a web-based multicenter registry that includes 24 participating hospitals throughout the Republic of Korea. Adult comatose OHCA survivors treated with TH between 2007 and 2012 were included. The primary outcomes were neurological outcome at hospital discharge and in-hospital mortality. The secondary outcomes were TH performance and adverse events during TH. ResultsA total of 930 patients were included, of whom 556 (59.8%) survived to discharge and 249 (26.8%) were discharged with good neurologic outcomes. The median time from return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) to the start of TH was 101 minutes (interquartile range [IQR], 46 to 200 minutes). The induction, maintenance, and rewarming durations were 150 minutes (IQR, 80 to 267 minutes), 1,440 minutes (IQR, 1,290 to 1,440 minutes), and 708 minutes (IQR, 420 to 900 minutes), respectively. The time from the ROSC to coronary angiography was 1,045 hours (IQR, 121 to 12,051 hours). Hyperglycemia (46.3%) was the most frequent adverse event. ConclusionMore than one-quarter of the OHCA survivors (26.8%) were discharged with good neurologic outcomes. TH performance was appropriately managed in terms of the factors related to its timing, including cooling start time and rewarming duration.
