Postresuscitation pleth variability index-guided hemodynamic management of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest survivors: A randomised controlled trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background and purpose

Hypotension and shock after return of spontaneous circulation is harmful. Goal-directed post-resuscitation care aims at maintaining adequate perfusion pressure, but evidence.on strategies to achieve this goal is limited. This study aimed to compare outcomes of pleth variability index (PVi) supported hemodynamic management during early hospital admission with those of standard hemodynamic management.

Methods and trial design

From March 2019 to August 2023, all mechanically ventilated patients adults admitted alive after a non-traumatic out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) to the emergency department of Saint-Pierre University Hospital in Brussels, were screened for inclusion in this prospective, parallel, randomised, single-blind study. We enrolled pat
