Background: Acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock (AMICS) is frequently preceded by out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), with risk of anoxic brain injury. Neuron-specific enolase (NSE) is central to neuroprognostication; however, concomitant hemolysis can increase NSE independent of neuronal injury due to the presence of NSE in erythrocytes. This consideration is critical in AMICS patients treated with a microaxial flow pump (Impella, Abiomed), where hemolysis is frequent.

The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) have been recognized as predictors of various critical illnesses. Our study aimed to investigate whether the NLR and PLR measured at different timepoints could predict poor neurological outcomes at 6 months. This observational retrospective cohort study included adults who had experienced out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and received targeted temperature management between November 2015 and December 2020.
