This set of slide was presented during the Kelantan Resuscitation Update 22 Nov 2015 in accordance to the latest ACLS/ILCOR 2015 Guidelines. However, I have emphasized on certain important aspects relevant within the Malaysian context. Nonetheless, in general, there are no major changes for this year 2015

• No language limitation in article selection
• P = Post-ROSC patients
• I = Hyperoxia (PaO2 >300 mmHg)
• C = Non-hyperoxia or Normoxia (60 – 300 mmHg)
• O = In-hospital mortality (primary)

12. Why Too Much Oxygen is Bad?
Cornet AD et al. Critical care. 2013;17(2):313
13. Mechanisms of Injury of Hyperoxia
• Hyperoxia leads to generation of reactive oxygen
species
– This decreases the bioavailability of nitric oxide and
results in vasoconstriction.
• Hyperoxia results in closure of K+ATP channels,
inducing vasoconstriction
– Ischemia ! fall intracellular ATP !induce opening of K+
channels ! hyperpolarization of the vasc sm ms cells !
vasodilation
– In hyperoxia ! the closure of K+ channels !
vasoconstriction.
www.PresentationPro.com
14. Mechanisms of Injury of Hyperoxia
• Hyperoxia induce vasoconstriction by acting directly
on L-type Ca2+ channels
• Hyperoxia increases releases of angiotensin II
– AT II promotes endothelin-1 release ! vasoconstriction.
• Hyperoxia increases 20-hydroxyeicosatetraeonic
acid (20-HETE)
– 20-HETE is an arachidonic acid metabolite and a potent
vasoconstrictor

16. Oxygen Use During Cardiac Arrest
• Observational study
• 145 OHCA
• PaO2 level and CPR outcomes
• Results:
– PaO2 <61 mmHg: 18.8% survival to hosp adm
– PaO2 61 – 300 mmHg: 50.6% survival to hosp adm
– PaO2 > 300 mmHg: 83.3% survival to hosp adm
– No statistical difference in overall neurologic survival
Spindelboeck W, Schindler O, Moser A et al. Increasing arterial oxygen partial pressure during
cardiopulmonary resuscitation is associated with improved rates of hospital admission.
Resuscitation. 2013;84(6):770-5.
17. Authors’ Conclusion
www.PresentationPro.com
We describe a significantly increased rate
of hospital admission associated with
increasing PaO2. We found that the
previously described potentially harmful
effects of hyperoxia after return of
spontaneous circulation were not
reproduced for PaO2 measured during
CPR.
18. AHA 2015 Guidelines
• When supplementary oxygen is available, it may be
reasonable to use the maximal feasible inspired
oxygen concentration during CPR.
• Evidence for possible detrimental effects of
hyperoxia in the immediate post-cardiac arrest
period should not be extrapolated to CPR context
www.PresentationPro.com
19. AHA 2015 Guidelines
Post-CPR:
• When resources are available to titrate FiO2, it is
reasonable to decrease FiO2 when SaO2 is 100%
provided the SaO2 is maintained at 94% or greater.

* Higher ROSC, higher admission
28. Authors’ Conclusion
“There was no clear advantage of SDA over placebo, HDA,
adrenaline and vasopressin combination, or vasopressin
alone, in survival to discharge or neurological outcomes
after OHCA. There were improvements in rates of survival to
admission and ROSC with HDA over SDA and with SDA over
placebo. Thus, the efficacy of vasopressor use in OHCA
remains unanswered. Future trials are needed to determine
the optimal dose of adrenaline for OHCA.”
*SDA = standard dose adrenaline;
HAD = high dose adrenaline Lin S et al. Resuscitation. 2014;85(6):732-40.
29. AHA 2015 Recommendations
• Standard-dose epinephrine (1 mg every 3 to 5
minutes) may be reasonable for patients in cardiac
arrest (Class IIb, LOE B-R).
• High-dose epinephrine is not recommended for
routine use in cardiac arrest (Class III: No Benefit,
LOE B-R).
30. How early should adrenaline be given?
• IHCA
• N = 25095, non-shockable rhythms.
• Adjusted OR (survival to discharge):
– OR = 1.0 for 1-3 min (reference group)
– OR = 0.91 (95% CI 0.82 to 1.00; P=0.055) for 4-6 min
– OR = 0.74 (95% CI 0.63 to 0.88; P<0.001) for 7-9 min
– OR = 0.63 (95% CI 0.52 to 0.76; P<0.001) for >9 min

administration of epinephrine and outcome after in-hospital cardiac arrest with non
shockable rhythms: retrospective analysis of large in-hospital data registry. BMJ
2014;348:g3028.
31. OHCA setting
• Shockable rhythm:
– Cantrell et al (2013)
• ROSC achiever: shorter scene arrival-to-first adrenaline than
non-ROSC (8.1 vs. 9.8 min, p < 0.01)
• Non-shockable rhythm
– Goto et al (2013), N = 209577
• improved 1-month survival; adrenaline <9 min, EMS-initiated
CPR vs adrenaline >10 min
– Nakahura et al (2012), N = 212228
• improved survival to discharge; adrenaline<10 min, EMS-initiated
CPR vs no adrenaline
– Koscik et al (2013), N = 686
• improved ROSC in adrenaline <10 min, PEA
32. AHA 2015 Recommendations
• For initial non-shockable rhythm: It may be
reasonable to administer adrenaline as soon as
feasible after the onset of cardiac arrest (Class IIb,
LOE C-LD).
• For initial shockable rhyhtm: There is insufficient
evidence to make a recommendation as to the
optimal timing of adrenaline, particularly in relation
to defibrillation

37. Amiodarone vs Placebo (ARREST study)
• Compared to placebo, amiodarone has better
survival to adm (44% vs. 34%, P =0.03); adjusted
OR 1.6 (95% CI: 1.1 to 2.4). No difference in
survival to discharge and survival with good neuro

38. Amiodarone vs Lidocaine (ALIVE)
• Compared to lidocaine, amiodarone has better
survival to adm (22.8% vs. 12%, P =0.009); OR
2.17 (95% CI: 1.21 to 3.83). No difference in
survival to discharge and survival with good neuro

with lidocaine for shock-resistant ventricular fibrillation. N Engl J Med 2002;346(12):
884-90.
40. AHA 2015 Recommendations
• Amiodarone may be considered for VF/pVT that is
unresponsive to CPR, defibrillation, and a
vasopressor therapy (Class IIb, LOE B-R).
• Lidocaine may be considered as an alternative to
amiodarone for VF/pVT that is unresponsive to
CPR, defibrillation, and vasopressor therapy (Class
IIb, LOE C-LD).
www.PresentationPro.com
41. AHA 2015 Recommendations
“…none (of the antiarrhythmics) have yet
been proven to increase long term
survival or survival with good neurologic
outcome. Thus establishing vascular
access to enable drug administration
should not compromise the quality of CPR
or timely defibrillation, which are known to
improve survival.”
42. AHA 2015 Recommendations on
Ultrasound Use
Ultrasound (cardiac or noncardiac )may be
considered during the management of
cardiac arrest, although its usefulness has
not been well established (Class IIb, LOE C-
EO). If a qualified sonographer is present and
use of ultrasound does not interfere with the
standard cardiac arrest treatment protocol,
then ultrasound may be considered as an
adjunct to standard patient evaluation (Class
IIb, LOE C-EO).
44. Why Therapeutic Hypothermia?
1. reduce the cerebral metabolic rate for oxygen
(CMRO2) (6% for q1°C reduction in brain
temperature >28°C)
2. suppression of free radical production in
reperfusion injury
3. suppression of excitatory amino acids release,
and calcium shifts, which can in turn lead to
mitochondrial damage and apoptosis
• Adverse effects: arrhythmias, infection, and
coagulopathy. Nolan JP. et al. Circulation. 2003;108(1):118-21.
45. Historical Perspective
• 2 studies in Feb 2002 NEJM show improved
survival and neurological outcomes with induction
of mild therapeutic hypothermia for survivors of
OHCA
www.PresentationPro.com
46. Historical Perspective
• The Hypothermia after Cardiac Arrest Study Group
study – OHCA with ROSC: 32-34ºC over 24 hours
(n=137) improved functional recovery at discharge
(55% vs 39%; NNT = 6), lower 6-mo mortality rate
vs with normothermic patients (41% vs 55%)
(NNT=7)
• In Bernard et al, 77 OHCA with ROSC: hypothermia
(33°C for 12 hours) vs normothermia: Good neuro
at discharge in 49% of hypothermic patients vs 26%
normothermic

Better

49. Conclusion: Preventing Post-arrest
Hyperthermia?
• “…No significant differences between the two
groups in overall mortality at the end of the trial or
in the composite of poor neurologic function or
death at 180 days.”
• “…..Nevertheless, it is important to acknowledge
that there may be a clinically relevant benefit of
controlling the body temperature at 36°C, instead of
allowing fever to develop in patients who have been
resuscitated after cardiac arrest.”

52. New therapy in cardiac
arrest:
Combo of adrenaline-
vasopressin-steroids?
53. Post-resuscitation as sepsis-like?
• During and after CPR, it has been found that there
are
– activation of blood coagulation
– platelet activation with formation of thromboxane A2 and
– alteration of soluble E-selectin and P-selectin
www.PresentationPro.com
54. Post-resuscitation as sepsis-like?
• Four phases post-resuscitation:
1. First 24 hrs - microcirculatory dysfunction from
multifocal hypoxia leading to rapid release of toxic
enzymes & free radicals into CSF and blood
2. 1 to 3 days - cardiac function & systemic function
improved, but increased intestinal permeability
predisposes to sepsis syndrome and MODS
3. Days later – serious infection, patient declines
rapidly
4. Death
www.PresentationPro.com
57. Vasopressin
• Non-survivors of CPR have lower plasma
vasopressin level compared to those who survived
• Vasopressin acts directly on V1 receptors on
vascular contractile elements
• In cardiac arrest, vasopressin is released as
adjunct vasopressor to adrenaline
www.PresentationPro.com
58. Steroids
• Cardiac arrest – lower cortisol levels during and
after CPR
• ROSC is associated with increased plasma
cytokine elevation, endotoxemia, coagulopathy,
adrenal insufficiency resulting in post-resus shock
• Steroids may be beneficial to improve
hemodynamics and reduce intensity of post-resus
SIRS and MODS
www.PresentationPro.com
60. VSE vs control
• VSE – higher ROSC > 20 min (83.9% vs 65.9%;
OR, 2.98; 95%CI, 1.39-6.40; P = 0.005)
• VSE – higher survival to discharge with good neuro
(CPC score of 1 or 2) (13.9% vs 5.1%; OR, 3.28;
95%CI, 1.17-9.20; P = 0.02).
• Post-resus shock: VSE – higher survival to
discharge with good neuro (21.1% vs 8.2%; OR
3.74; 95% CI 1.20 – 11.62; p = 0.02), improved
hemodynamics; less oran dysfunction
Post-resus shock: sustained post-resus shock >4 hours or required >50% increase of
vasopressor to maintain MAP>70 mmHg post-resus
