Comparison of Scores for Early Brain Damage Assessment at Intensive Care Unit Admission After Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest (AfterROSC1)

September 6, 2023 updated by: AfterROSC
Even in patients with successful return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), outcome after cardiac arrest remains poor. The overall in-hospital survival rate widely varies both worldwide and across communities, from 1 to 4 folds according to circumstances of arrest and post-resuscitation interventions. Several studies have already shown that early interventions performed after ROSC, such as treatment of the cause, targeted temperature management, optimal hemodynamic management and extra-corporeal life support in selected patients, could improve the outcome in post-cardiac arrest patients. However, the decision process regarding the allocation of these resources, in parallel with the management of patients' proxies, remains a complex challenge for physicians facing these situations. Consequently, several prediction models and scores have been developed in order to stratify the risk of unfavorable outcome and to discriminate the best candidates for post-resuscitation interventions. Overall, several scores exist, but external validation are lacking and direct comparisons are needed to assess relative interest of scoring systems. Indeed, establishing the optimal scoring system is crucial, for optimal treatment allocation and appropriate information to relatives.

Study Population

This is an observational, prospective, multicentric prognostic study. The study period is 1 year, and we plan to include 597 patients in 21 ICUs in France.

For all patients included, medical history, clinical data, paraclinical results and outcome (at hospital discharge and at 3 months, including modified Rankin score) will be prospectively collected by local investigator, according to an electronical CRF.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

- All adult patients, major, admitted to intensive care after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest and comatose (defined by Glasgow score ≤ 8) on admission.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • cardiac arrest occurring intra-hospital,
  • minor patient,
  • major patient under guardianship,
  • protected persons,
  • prior inclusion in the study
