Survival and neurological outcome after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest treated with and without mechanical circulatory support.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

The aim of this study was to describe the survival and neurological outcome in patients with OHCA treated with and without mechanical circulatory support (MCS).

Methods

This was a retrospective observational cohort study on patients with OHCA admitted to Aarhus University Hospital, Denmark, between January 2015 and December 2019. Kaplan-Meier estimates were used to evaluate 30-day and 30-180-day survival. Cox regression analysis was used to assess the association between covariates and one-year mortality.

Results

Among 1,015 patients admitted, 698 achieved return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) before admission, 101 patients with refractory OHCA received mechanical circulatory support (MCS) and the remaining 216 patients with refractory OHCA did not receive MCS
