Association of cumulative oxygen and carbon dioxide levels with neurologic outcome after pediatric cardiac arrest resuscitation: A multicenter cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

We aimed to (1) determine the association between cumulative PaO₂ and PaCO₂ exposure 24 h post-return of circulation and survival with favorable neurologic outcome. And (2) to assess adherence to American Heart Association post-cardiac arrest care treatment goals (PaO₂ 75-100 mmHg and PaCO₂ 35-45 mmHg).

Design and setting

Prospectively collected data were analysed from five Pediatric Resuscitation Quality collaborative sites supplemented with retrospective PaO₂ and PaCO₂ data.

Patients

Children aged 1 day-17 years with return of circulation after cardiac arrest, admitted 2019-2022, with ≥ 4 arterial blood gasses spanning at least 12 h within 24 h post-return of ciculation, were eligible. Conge
