Clinical evaluation of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation in adult sudden cardiac death
Objective To summarize the experience and effect of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation(ECPR)on the treatment of sudden cardiac death(SCD).Methods The data of 120 adults with SCD-ECPR in emergency department of the first affiliated hospital of Nanjing Medical University from April 2015 to April 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were grouped by Survival/death at 90 days,OHCA/IHCA(out-of-hospital/in-hospital cardiac arrest),with/without acute myocardial infarction(AMI)and divided according to 60 min of the time from cardiac arrest to extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO)initiation(CA-Pump On time).Age,sex,Charlson comorbidity index,IHCA/OHCA,initial rhythm,no-flow time,CA-Pump On time,ECMO evacuation success rate,90-day survival rate,ECMO treatment time were analyzed.Results ① Total of 114 adult patients with SCD-ECPR were enrolled,and 45(39.5％)patients survived at 90 days,of whom 40(88.9％)patients had good neurological outcomes.② Age and no-flow time were significantly lower in the 90-day survival group than that in death group,and the proportion of IHCA and shockable initial rhythm was higher.③ The no flow time in IHCA group was significantly lower than that in OHCA group,and the 90-day survival rate was higher.④OHCA and regional interhospital transport prolonged CA-Pump On time and reduced the 90-day survival rate.⑤ The AMI group was older with a higher Charlson comorbidity index,and the 90-day survival rate was significantly lower than that in non-AMI group.Conclusions ECPR improves the prognosis of patients with SCD,there are high benefits in patients with long healthy life expectancy,IHCA,shockable initial rhythm,and short no flow time.The smooth life-saving chain of SCD-ECPR improves survival rate,by screening high benefit candidates in patients with OHCA,delayed initiation of ECPR or requiring interhospital transport,despite CA-Pump On time＞60 min,there is still survival potential.
