Do emergency teams (ETs) consider the underlying causes of in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) during advanced life support (ALS)? In a 4.5-year prospective observational study, an aetiology study group examined 302 episodes of IHCA. The purpose was to investigate the causes and cause-related survival and to evaluate whether these causes were recognised by the ETs.
In 258 (85%) episodes, the cause of IHCA was reliably determined. The cause was correctly recognised by the ET in 198 of 302 episodes (66%). In the majority of episodes, cardiac causes (156, 60%) or hypoxic causes (51, 20%) were present. The cause-related survival was 30% for cardiac aetiology and 37% for hypoxic aetiology. The initial cardiac rhythm was pulseless electrical activity (PEA) in 144 episodes (48%) followed by asystole in 70 episodes (23%) and combined ventricular fibrillation/ventricular tachycardia (VF/VT) in 83 episodes (27%). Seventy-one patients (25%) survived to hospital discharge. The median delay to cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) was 1min (inter-quartile range 0-1min).
Various cardiac and hypoxic aetiologies dominated. In two-thirds of IHCA episodes, the underlying cause was correctly identified by the ET, i.e. according to the findings of the aetiology study group.
在高级生命支持(ALS)期间,急救团队(ETs)是否会考虑院内心脏骤停(IHCA)的潜在病因?在一项为期4.5年的前瞻性观察研究中,一个病因研究小组对302例IHCA事件进行了检查。目的是调查病因及与病因相关的生存率,并评估这些病因是否被急救团队识别。
在258例(85%)事件中,IHCA的病因得以可靠确定。急救团队在302例事件中的198例(66%)中正确识别了病因。在大多数事件中,存在心脏病因(156例,60%)或缺氧病因(51例,20%)。心脏病因的病因相关生存率为30%,缺氧病因的为37%。初始心律为无脉电活动(PEA)的有144例(48%),其次是心搏停止70例(23%),心室颤动/室性心动过速(VF/VT)合并83例(27%)。71名患者(25%)存活至出院。心肺复苏(CPR)的中位延迟时间为1分钟(四分位间距0 - 1分钟)。
各种心脏和缺氧病因占主导。在三分之二的IHCA事件中,急救团队正确识别了潜在病因,即根据病因研究小组的调查结果。
