Functional outcomes among survivors of pediatric in-hospital cardiac arrest are associated with baseline neurologic and functional status, but not with diastolic blood pressure during CPR
Resuscitation Sep 29, 2019
Wolfe HA, Sutton RM, Reeder RW, et al. - Researchers analyzed data from the prospective multicenter Pediatric Intensive Care Quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation Study in order to assess the relationship between intra-arrest hemodynamics and neurological status among survivors of pediatric cardiac arrest. During the study period, 244 index cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) events were reported; of these, 77 (32%) CPR events, which met all inclusion criteria and had both diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and Functional Status Scale (FSS) data available were included. The analysis revealed that baseline functional status, but not DBP during CPR, was associated with new substantive morbidity determined by FSS after a pediatric IHCA.
