AI Article Synopsis
- ECPR has enabled previously ineligible patients with refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) from acute myocardial infarction (AMI) to undergo primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
- A study examined 671 patients over five years, finding that 37% of them had refractory cardiac arrest despite ECPR, with about 65% achieving return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) post-PCI and 21% surviving to discharge.
- Key factors influencing survival included having prehospital ROSC, quicker ECPR initiation, and achieving a high TIMI flow grade after the procedure.
Article Abstract
Background: Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) has allowed patients with refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) due to acute myocardial infarction (AMI) to receive primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI); they were previously ineligible.
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to clarify the characteristics and outcomes of patients with OHCA secondary to AMI who underwent primary PCI during refractory cardiac arrest despite ECPR.
Methods: Patients with AMI and OHCA aged ≥18 years who underwent PCI with ECPR in 2013 to 2018 were identified from a multicenter ECPR registry in Japan. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. We also assessed possible predictors of survival to discharge using mixed effects logistic regression to account for group differences among facilities.
Results: Among 671 patients with AMI and OHCA who underwent PCI with ECPR from 30 institutions, 251 (37%) patients had refractory cardiac arrest despite ECPR initiation and subsequently underwent primary PCI. Following coronary reperfusion, 64.9% (163/251) of patients achieved the sustained return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), 21.1% (53/251) survived, and 10.4% (26/251) had favorable neurological status at hospital discharge. Multivariable analysis revealed that intermittent prehospital ROSC (OR: 5.22; 95% CI: 1.54-17.79), shorter time to ECPR initiation (OR: 0.89; 95% CI: 0.82-0.98), and postprocedural TIMI flow grade 3 (OR: 5.08; 95% CI: 1.50-17.22) are significantly associated with survival to hospital discharge.
Conclusions: Among patients with AMI and refractory OHCA treated with ECPR, one-third did not have sustained ROSC prior to PCI. Of those, two-thirds achieved sustained ROSC following reperfusion and one-fifth survived to discharge.

Background: A subset of patients with mitral valve prolapse (MVP), a highly heritable condition, experience sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) or sudden cardiac death (SCD). However, the inheritance of phenotypic imaging features of arrhythmic MVP remains unknown.
Methods: We recruited 23 MVP probands, including 9 with SCA/SCD and 14 with frequent/complex ventricular ectopy.
The guide extension-facilitated ostial stenting (GEST) technique uses a guide extension catheter (GEC) to improve stent delivery during primary coronary angioplasty (PCI). GECs are used for stent delivery into the coronary arteries of patients with difficult anatomy due to tortuosity, calcification, or chronic total occlusion (CTO) vessels. Stent and balloon placement has become challenging in patients with increasing lesion complexity due to tortuosity, vessel morphology, length of the lesion, and respiratory movements.

Objectives: In the general hospital wards, machine learning (ML)-based early warning systems (EWSs) can identify patients at risk of deterioration to facilitate rescue interventions. We assess subpopulation performance of a ML-based EWS on medical and surgical adult patients admitted to general hospital wards.
Materials And Methods: We assessed the scores of an EWS integrated into the electronic health record and calculated every 15 minutes to predict a composite adverse event (AE): all-cause mortality, transfer to intensive care, cardiac arrest, or rapid response team evaluation.

Background: Targeted temperature management (TTM) is considered a beneficial treatment for improving outcomes in patients with OHCA due to acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The comparative benefits of hypothermic TTM (32-34°C) versus normothermic TTM (35-36°C) are unclear. This study compares these TTM strategies in improving neurological outcomes and survival rates in OHCA patients with ACS.
