Invasive hemodynamics and outcomes in cardiac arrest survivors undergoing targeted temperature management
American Journal of Cardiology Jan 30, 2019
Schenone AL, et al. - In this study involving post-cardiac arrest patients undergoing targeted temperature management (TTM), researchers investigated if early invasive hemodynamics predict survival or neurological outcomes. Upon retrospective review of 52 comatose survivors of cardiac arrest undergoing TTM at the Coronary Intensive Care Unit of a Quaternary Center, the investigators identified a wide variability in invasive hemodynamic parameters, highlighting the heterogeneity of the post-cardiac arrest syndrome. They identified no predictive value of early invasive hemodynamics for survival or favorable neurological outcomes at hospital discharge.
