Abstract

Cardiac arrest is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Better-quality bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation training, cardiocerebral resuscitation principles, and intensive post-resuscitation hospital care have improved survival. However, cognitive and functional impairment after cardiac arrest remain areas of concern. Research focus has shifted beyond prognostication in the immediate post-arrest period to identification of mechanisms for long-term brain injury and implementation of promising protocols to reduce neuronal injury. These include therapeutic temperature management (TTM), as well as pharmacologic and psychological interventions which also improve overall neurological function. Comprehensive assessment of cognitive function post-arrest is hampered by heterogeneous measures among studies. However, the domains of attention, long-term memory, spatial memory, and executive function appear to be affected. As more patients survive cardiac arrest for longer periods of time, there needs to be a greater focus on interventions that can enhance cognitive and psychosocial function post-arrest.

Of these, 1/3 died within 30 months of the arrest. Of those who survived, long-term survival was positively correlated with lower CPC scores and less worsening in activities of daily living from before the arrest to hospital discharge. Most frequently, long-term survival in this cohort was associated with less deterioration in functional status and activities of daily living.CrossRefPubMed

This is a randomized controlled trial of 110 comatose patients assigned to receive either hypothermia alone or hypothermia with xenon. The primary outcome was cerebral white matter damage by fractional anisotropy from diffusion tensor MRI between 36 - 52 hours after cardiac arrest. Secondary endpoints were neurologic outcome (mRS) and mortality. Although xenon showed benefit over hypothermia alone in terms of less white matter damage, there was not a statistically significant difference in mRS or mortality at 6 months.CrossRefPubMed
