    • Background It has been suggested that target temperature management (TTM) increases the probability of infectious complications after cardiac arrest. We aimed to compare the incidence of pneumonia, severe sepsis and septic shock after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in patients with two target temperatures and to describe changes in biomarkers and possible mortality associated with these infectious complications. Methods Post-hoc analysis of the TTM-trial which randomized patients resuscitated from OHCA to a target temperature of 33 °C or 36 °C. Prospective data on infectious complications were recorded daily during the ICU-stay. Pneumonia, severe sepsis and septic shock were considered infectious complications. Procalcitonin (PCT) and C-reactive-protein (CRP) levels were measured at 24 h, 48 h and 72 h after cardiac arrest. Results There were 939 patients in the modified intention-to-treat population. Five-hundred patients (53%) developed pneumonia, severe sepsis or septic shock which was associated with mortality in multivariate analysis (Hazard ratio [HR] 1.39; 95%CI 1.13–1.70; p = 0.001). There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of infectious complications between temperature groups (sub-distribution hazard ratio [SHR] 0.88; 95%CI 0.75–1.03; p = 0.12). PCT and CRP were significantly higher for patients with infections at all times (p < 0.001), but there was considerable overlap. Conclusions Patients who develop pneumonia, severe sepsis or septic shock after OHCA might have an increased mortality. A target temperature of 33 °C after OHCA was not associated with an increased risk of infectious complications compared to a target temperature of 36 °C. PCT and CRP are of limited value for diagnosing infectious complications after cardiac arrest.

  • Serum GFAP and UCH-L1 for the prediction of neurological outcome in comatose cardiac arrest patients
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: Resuscitation. - : Elsevier BV. - 0300-9572. ; 154, s. 61-68
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Objective: Neurological outcome prediction is crucial early after cardiac arrest. Serum biomarkers released from brain cells after hypoxic-ischaemic injury may aid in outcome prediction. The only serum biomarker presently recommended in the European Resuscitation Council prognostication guidelines is neuron-specific enolase (NSE), but NSE has limitations. In this study, we therefore analyzed the outcome predictive accuracy of the serum biomarkers glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase-L1 (UCH-L1) in patients after cardiac arrest. Methods: Serum GFAP and UCH-L1 were collected at 24, 48 and 72 h after cardiac arrest. The primary outcome was neurological function at 6-month follow-up assessed by the cerebral performance category scale (CPC), dichotomized into good (CPC1-2) and poor (CPC3-5). Prognostic accuracies were tested with receiver-operating characteristics by calculating the area under the receiver-operating curve (AUROC) and compared to the AUROC of NSE. Results: 717 patients were included in the study. GFAP and UCH-L1 discriminated between good and poor neurological outcome at all time-points when used alone (AUROC GFAP 0.88–0.89; UCH-L1 0.85–0.87) or in combination (AUROC 0.90–0.91). The combined model was superior to GFAP and UCH-L1 separately and NSE (AUROC 0.75–0.85) at all time-points. At specificities ≥95%, the combined model predicted poor outcome with a higher sensitivity than NSE at 24 h and with similar sensitivities at 48 and 72 h. Conclusion: GFAP and UCH-L1 predicted poor neurological outcome with high accuracy. Their combination may be of special interest for early prognostication after cardiac arrest where it performed significantly better than the currently recommended biomarker NSE.

  • Association Between EEG Patterns and Serum Neurofilament Light After Cardiac Arrest: A Post Hoc Analysis of the TTM Trial.
  • 2022

    • Electroencephalography (EEG) is widely used for prediction of neurological outcome after cardiac arrest. To better understand the relationship between EEG and neuronal injury, we explore the association between EEG and neurofilament light (NFL) as a marker of neuroaxonal injury. We evaluate whether highly malignant EEG patterns are reflected by high NFL levels. Additionally, we explore the association of EEG backgrounds and EEG discharges with NFL.Post-hoc analysis of the Target Temperature Management after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (TTM)-trial. Routine EEGs were prospectively performed after the temperature intervention ≥36 hours post-arrest. Patients who awoke or died prior to 36 hours post-arrest were excluded. EEG-experts blinded to clinical information classified EEG background, amount of discharges and highly malignant EEG patterns according to the standardized American Clinical Neurophysiology Society terminology. Prospectively collected serum samples were analyzed for NFL after trial completion. The highest available concentration at 48 or 72-hours post-arrest was used.262/939 patients with EEG and NFL data were included. Patients with highly malignant EEG patterns had 2.9 times higher NFL levels than patients with malignant patterns and NFL levels were 13 times higher in patients with malignant patterns than those with benign patterns (95% CI: 1.4-6.1 and 6.5-26.2 respectively, effect size 0.47, p<0.001). Both background and the amount of discharges were independently strongly associated with NFL levels (p<0.001). The EEG background had a stronger association with NFL levels than EEG discharges (R2=0.30 and R2=0.10, respectively). NFL levels in patients with a continuous background were lower than for any other background (95% CI for discontinuous, burst-suppression and suppression, respectively: 2.26-18.06, 3.91-41.71 and 5.74-41.74, effect size 0.30 and p<0.001 for all). NFL levels did not differ between suppression and burst-suppression. Superimposed discharges were only associated with higher NFL levels if the EEG background was continuous.Benign, malignant, and highly malignant EEG patterns reflect the extent of brain injury as measured by NFL in serum. The extent of brain injury is more strongly related to the EEG background than superimposed discharges. Combining EEG and NFL may be useful to better identify patients misclassified by single methods.clinicaltrials.gov, NCT01020916.

  • Hypothermic versus Normothermic Temperature Control after Cardiac Arrest
  • 2022
  • Ingår i: NEJM Evidence. - 2766-5526. ; 1:11, s. 1-13
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • BACKGROUNDThe evidence for temperature control for comatose survivors of cardiac arrest is inconclusive. Controversy exists as to whether the effects of hypothermia differ per the circumstances of the cardiac arrest or patient characteristics.METHODSAn individual patient data meta-analysis of the Targeted Temperature Management at 33°C versus 36°C after Cardiac Arrest (TTM) and Hypothermia versus Normothermia after Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest (TTM2) trials was conducted. The intervention was hypothermia at 33°C and the comparator was normothermia. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality at 6 months. Secondary outcomes included poor functional outcome (modified Rankin scale score of 4 to 6) at 6 months. Predefined subgroups based on the design variables in the original trials were tested for interaction with the intervention as follows: age (older or younger than the median), sex (female or male), initial cardiac rhythm (shockable or nonshockable), time to return of spontaneous circulation (above or below the median), and circulatory shock on admission (presence or absence).RESULTSThe primary analyses included 2800 patients, with 1403 assigned to hypothermia and 1397 to normothermia. Death occurred for 691 of 1398 participants (49.4%) in the hypothermia group and 666 of 1391 participants (47.9%) in the normothermia group (relative risk with hypothermia, 1.03; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.96 to 1.11; P=0.41). A poor functional outcome occurred for 733 of 1350 participants (54.3%) in the hypothermia group and 718 of 1330 participants (54.0%) in the normothermia group (relative risk with hypothermia, 1.01; 95% CI, 0.94 to 1.08; P=0.88). Outcomes were consistent in the predefined subgroups.CONCLUSIONSHypothermia at 33°C did not decrease 6-month mortality compared with normothermia after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.

  • Prognostic significance of clinical seizures after cardiac arrest and target temperature management
  • 2017
  • Ingår i: Resuscitation. - : Elsevier BV. - 0300-9572. ; 114, s. 146-151

    • Aim: Clinical seizures are common after cardiac arrest and predictive of a poor neurological outcome. Seizures may be myoclonic, tonic-clonic or a combination of seizure types. This study reports the incidence and prognostic significance of clinical seizures in the target temperature management (TTM) after cardiac arrest trial. Our hypotheses were that seizures are associated with a poor prognosis and that the incidence of seizures is not affected by the target temperature. Methods: Post-hoc analysis of reported clinical seizures during day 1-7 in the TTM-trial including their treatment, EEG-findings, and long-term neurological outcome. The trial randomised 939 comatose survivors to TTM at 33. °C or 36. °C with strict criteria for withdrawal of life-sustaining therapies. Sensitivity, specificity and false positive rate for poor outcome were reported for different types of seizures. Results: Clinical seizures were registered in 268 patients (29%), similarly distributed in both intervention arms. Early and late seizures were equally predictive of poor outcome. Myoclonic seizures were the most common (240 patients, 26%) and the most predictive of a poor outcome (sensitivity 36.1%, false positive rate 4.3%). Two patients with status myoclonus regained consciousness, one with a good neurological outcome, generating a false positive rate of poor outcome of 0.2% (95%CI 0.0-1.0). Conclusion: Clinical seizures are common after cardiac arrest and indicate poor outcome with limited specificity. Prolonged seizures are a very grave sign but occasional patients may have a good outcome. The level of the target temperature does not affect the prevalence or prognostic significance of seizures.

  • Time to awakening after cardiac arrest and the association with target temperature management
  • 2018
  • Ingår i: Resuscitation. - : Elsevier BV. - 0300-9572. ; 126, s. 166-171
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Aim: Target temperature management (TTM) at 32-36 °C is recommended in unconscious survivors of cardiac arrest. This study reports awakening in the TTM-trial. Our predefined hypotheses were that time until awakening correlates with long-term neurological outcome and is not affected by level of TTM. Methods: Post-hoc analysis of time until awakening after cardiac arrest, its association with long-term (180-days) neurological outcome and predictors of late awakening (day 5 or later. ). The trial randomized 939 comatose survivors to TTM at 33 °C or 36 °C with strict criteria for withdrawal of life-sustaining therapies. Administered sedation in the treatment groups was compared. Awakening was defined as a Glasgow Coma Scale motor score 6. Results: 496 patients had registered day of awakening in the ICU, another 43 awoke after ICU discharge. Good neurological outcome was more common in early (275/308, 89%) vs late awakening (142/188, 76%), p < 0.001. Awakening occurred later in TTM33 than in TTM36 (p = 0.002) with no difference in neurological outcome, or cumulative doses of sedative drugs at 12, 24 or 48 h. TTM33 (p = 0.006), clinical seizures (p = 0.004), and lower GCS-M on admission (p = 0.03) were independent predictors of late awakening. Conclusion: Late awakening is common and often has a good neurological outcome. Time to awakening was longer in TTM33 than in TTM36, this difference could not be attributed to differences in sedative drugs administered during the first 48 h.

  • Performance of a guideline-recommended algorithm for prognostication of poor neurological outcome after cardiac arrest
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: Intensive Care Medicine. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 0342-4642 .- 1432-1238. ; 46:10, s. 1852-62

    • © 2020, The Author(s). Purpose: To assess the performance of a 4-step algorithm for neurological prognostication after cardiac arrest recommended by the European Resuscitation Council (ERC) and the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM). Methods: Retrospective descriptive analysis with data from the Target Temperature Management (TTM) Trial. Associations between predicted and actual neurological outcome were investigated for each step of the algorithm with results from clinical neurological examinations, neuroradiology (CT or MRI), neurophysiology (EEG and SSEP) and serum neuron-specific enolase. Patients examined with Glasgow Coma Scale Motor Score (GCS-M) on day 4 (72–96h) post-arrest and available 6-month outcome were included. Poor outcome was defined as Cerebral Performance Category 3–5. Variations of the ERC/ESICM algorithm were explored within the same cohort. Results: The ERC/ESICM algorithm identified poor outcome patients with 38.7% sensitivity (95% CI 33.1–44.7) and 100% specificity (95% CI 98.8–100) in a cohort of 585 patients. An alternative cut-off for serum neuron-specific enolase, an alternative EEG-classification and variations of the GCS-M had minor effects on the sensitivity without causing false positive predictions. The highest overall sensitivity, 42.5% (95% CI 36.7–48.5), was achieved when prognosticating patients irrespective of GCS-M score, with 100% specificity (95% CI 98.8–100) remaining. Conclusion: The ERC/ESICM algorithm and all exploratory multimodal variations thereof investigated in this study predicted poor outcome without false positive predictions and with sensitivities 34.6–42.5%. Our results should be validated prospectively, preferably in patients where withdrawal of life-sustaining therapy is uncommon to exclude any confounding from self-fulfilling prophecies.

  • Electroencephalography (EEG) for neurological prognostication after cardiac arrest and targeted temperature management; rationale and study design
  • 2014
  • Ingår i: BMC Neurology. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 1471-2377. ; 14
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background: Electroencephalography (EEG) is widely used to assess neurological prognosis in patients who are comatose after cardiac arrest, but its value is limited by varying definitions of pathological patterns and by inter-rater variability. The American Clinical Neurophysiology Society (ACNS) has recently proposed a standardized EEG-terminology for critical care to address these limitations. In the Target Temperature Management (TTM) trial, a large international trial on temperature management after cardiac arrest, EEG-examinations were part of the prospective study design. The main objective of this study is to evaluate EEG-data from the TTM-trial and to identify malignant EEG-patterns reliably predicting a poor neurological outcome. Methods/Design: In the TTM-trial, 399 post cardiac arrest patients who remained comatose after rewarming underwent a routine EEG. The presence of clinical seizures, use of sedatives and antiepileptic drugs during the EEG-registration were prospectively documented. After the end of the trial, the EEGs were retrieved to form a central EEG-database. The EEG-data will be analysed using the ACNS EEG terminology. We designed an electronic case record form (eCRF). Four EEG-specialists from different countries, blinded to patient outcome, will independently classify the EEGs and report through the eCRF. We will describe the prognostic values of pre-specified EEG patterns to predict poor as well as good outcome. We hypothesise three patterns to always be associated with a poor outcome (suppressed background without discharges, suppressed background with continuous periodic discharges and burst-suppression). Inter- and intra-rater variability and whether sedation or level of temperature affects the prognostic values will also be analyzed. Discussion: A well-defined terminology for interpreting post cardiac arrest EEGs is critical for the use of EEG as a prognostic tool. The results of this study may help to validate the ACNS terminology for assessing post cardiac arrest EEGs and identify patterns that could reliably predict outcome.

  • Interrater agreement of EEG interpretation in comatose post cardiac arrest patients
  • 2015
  • Ingår i: Clinical Neurophysiology. - : Elsevier BV. - 1388-2457. ; 126:8, s. 171-171

    • Question: What is the interrater agreement of EEG interpretation in adult comatose post cardiac arrest patients using the American Clinical Neurophysiology Society (ACNS) standardized critical care EEG terminology? Methods: The EEG-data were obtained from patients included in the Target Temperature Management trial (TTM), an international, multicenter, clinical trial of temperature management in comatose cardiac arrest patients [N Engl J Med 2013]. In the TTM trial a routine EEG was performed in patients still comatose 12-36. h after rewarming.For this study, one EEG-specialist (IR) chose 20 EEGs, covering important aspects of the ACNS EEG terminology. Four EEG-specialists with different nationalities (Sweden: EW, Denmark: TWK, The Netherlands: AFvR and Switzerland: AOR) acquired the ACNS EEG terminology [J Clin Neurophys 2013;30:1-27] and studied a web-based training-module. The four EEG-specialists subsequently interpreted (blinded to patients' identity) the 20 EEGs, reporting the findings according to the ACNS EEG terminology. Percent agreement and Fleiss kappa values for every category in the terminology were calculated. Percent agreement was defined as the proportion of the 20 EEGs in which all interpreters reported identical findings. Results: There was 65% agreement on whether a rhythmic or periodic pattern was present or not (Kappa 0.44). If a rhythmic or periodic pattern was present there was 93% agreement on which type of pattern (periodic discharges, rhythmic delta activity, rhythmic spike-and-wave/polyspike-and-wave/sharp-and-slow-wave) (Kappa 0.65). Conclusions: Using the ACNS EEG terminology in adult comatose post cardiac arrest patients there was moderate agreement on the presence and type of periodic and rhythmic patterns.
