Objectives: Serum lactate and creatinine levels upon admission in cardiac arrest (CA) patients significantly correlate with acute kidney injury (AKI) post-restoration of autonomic circulation. However, the association between serum lactate/creatinine ratio (LCR) and AKI in this population remains unclear. This study aimed to explore the relationship between LCR at admission and cardiac arrest-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI).

Objective: To evaluate the predictive value of sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) for 28-day mortality in patients with post-cardiac arrest syndrome (PCAS).
Methods: Retrospective analysis of 125 patients with PCAS who were treated in Emergency Intensive Care Unit (EICU) of Wenzhou People's Hospital from July 2016 to July 2021. Clinical data were collected, including age, gender, underlying diseases, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHE II), SOFA score on admission to EICU and 28-day mortality.
