Abstract Details

Cognitive Outcomes of Patients Undergoing Therapeutic Hypothermia after Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest
Critical Care/Emergency Neurology/Trauma
S07 - (-)

Most studies of comatose survivors of cardiac arrest focus on mortality or functional outcome based on physical limitations. We aimed to study the long-term cognitive abilities of patients surviving out-of-hospital cardiac arrest who were treated with therapeutic hypothermia (TH).
Consecutive survivors of cardiac arrest who underwent TH from June 2006-May 2011 were prospectively identified. We reviewed the medical records and recorded the results of brain imaging, serum neuron-specific enolase (NSE) measurements, and electroencephalograms. We assessed cognitive domains using the Telephone Interview for Cognitive Status (TICS-m). An education-adjusted score ? 32 was considered normal.
Of 133 total patients, 77 (58%) were alive at a mean follow-up of 21 months (range 2-59 months). We interviewed 56 patients (73% of those alive). Median age was 67 years (range 24-88 years). Fifty-one patients (91%) were living independently. Median TICS-m score was 33 (range 16-41). Thirty-three (60%) were considered cognitively normal and 22 (40%) were cognitively impaired. The time-to-assessment did not differ among the cognitive outcomes (p=0.557). Eighteen patients were not working at the time of their cardiac arrest (17 were retired and 1 was unemployed). Of the 38 patients who were working up to the time of the cardiac arrest, 30 (79%) returned to work. Cognitive outcome was not associated with age, time to return of spontaneous circulation, brain atrophy, leukoaraiosis, or NSE level.
The majority of patients treated with TH after cardiac arrest had preserved cognitive function and were able to return to work.
