The Association between Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation Profiles and Neurologic Outcome in Patients with In-Hospital Cardiac Arrest.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The relationship between disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) profiles and survival or neurological outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients is well known. In contrast, the relationship between DIC profiles and neurological outcomes in patients with in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) remains unclear. This study sought to examine the correlation between DIC profiles and neurological outcomes in IHCA patients.

Methods

A retrospective observational study was conducted on comatose adult IHCA patients treated with targeted temperature management between January 2017 and December 2022. DIC profiles were used to calculate the DIC score, and were measured immediately after the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). The primary endpoint was a po
