Abstract

Abstract : Objective: To describe neurobehavioral outcomes and investigate factors associated with survival and survival with good neurobehavioral outcome 1 year after in-hospital cardiac arrest for children who received extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Design: Secondary analysis of the Therapeutic Hypothermia after Pediatric Cardiac Arrest In-Hospital trial. Setting: Thirty-seven PICUs in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. Patients: Children ( n = 147) resuscitated with extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation following in-hospital cardiac arrest. Interventions: Neurobehavioral status was assessed using the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, Second Edition, at prearrest baseline and 12 months postarrest. Norms for Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, Second Edition, are 100 (mean) ± 15 (SD). Higher scores indicate better functioning. Outcomes included 12-month survival, 12-month survival with Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, Second Edition, decreased by less than or equal to 15 points from baseline, and 12-month survival with Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, Second Edition, greater than or equal to 70. Measurements and Main Results: Of 147 children receiving extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation, 125 (85.0%) had a preexisting cardiac condition, 75 (51.0%) were postcardiac surgery, and 84 (57.1%) were less than 1 year old. Duration of chest compressions was greater than 30 minutes for 114 (77.5%). Sixty-one (41.5%) survived to 12 months, 32 (22.1%) survived to 12 months with Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, Second Edition, decreased by less than or equal to 15 points from baseline, and 39 (30.5%) survived to 12 months with Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, Second Edition, greater than or equal to 70. On multivariable analyses, open-chest cardiac massage was independently associated with greater 12-month survival with Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, Second Edition, decreased by less than or equal to 15 points and greater 12-month survival with Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, Second Edition, greater than or equal to 70. Higher minimum postarrest lactate and preexisting gastrointestinal conditions were independently associated with lower 12-month survival with Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, Second Edition, decreased by less than or equal to 15 points and lower 12-month survival with Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, Second Edition, greater than or equal to 70. Conclusions: About one third of children survived with good neurobehavioral outcome 1 year after receiving extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation for in-hospital arrest. Open-chest cardiac massage and minimum postarrest lactate were associated with survival with good neurobehavioral outcome at 1 year. Abstract : Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text.
