Abstract

PURPOSE
The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between coronary angiography (CAG) with or without percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and the survival outcome of patients successfully resuscitated from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
METHODS
We used the Cardiac Arrest Pursuit Trial with Unique Registration and Epidemiological Surveillance database, which is out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) cohort of 27 emergency departments in Korea, between February 2014 and January 2015. The inclusion criteria were all OHCA patients who receive cardiopulmonary resuscitation in an emergency department and return of spontaneous circulation. Univariable analysis and multivariable logistic regression analysis were conducted to assess the associations between CAG and outcomes (favorable neurological outcome and survival-to-discharge). Moreover, similar analysis was conducted between PCI and no-PCI subgroups within the CAG group.
RESULTS
Of the 1,616 patients, 707 patients were return of spontaneous circulation. The number of patients who conducted CAG was 204 (28.9%) and the number of patients who conducted PCI was 75 (10.6%). In OHCA patients, the CAG group had a more significant good survival discharge outcome with an odds ratio (OR) of 4.61 (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.64-8.05) and good neurologic outcomes with an OR of 7.82 (95% CI, 4.37-14.00). In CAG patients, the PCI group had no significant relationship with survival discharge with an OR of 0.99 (95% CI, 0.36-2.70) and with neurologic outcomes with an OR of 1.15 (95% CI, 0.46-2.88) compared with no PCI group.
CONCLUSION
In OHCA patients, the CAG group had a more significant good prognosis (survival discharge rate and good neurologic outcomes) compared with the no-CAG group. In CAG patients, the PCI group had no significant association with good prognosis compared with the no-PCI group.
