Analysis of Sudden Cardiac Arrest during Marathon Races in Japan

Objective: Increased number of runners in Japan has been one reason for increasing the risk of cardiac arrest during marathon races. The purpose of the study was to examine 1) the incidence of cardiac arrest during marathon races held in the past in Japan, 2) the characteristics of runners with cardiac arrest, 3) the effectiveness of public access defibrillation (PAD) use for cardiac arrest cases. Methods: We examined the incidence of the cardiac arrest during marathon races in Japan from the medical records of marathon races that Kokushikan University provided in the past five years. Also, we analyzed cardiac arrests occurred in Japan in the past 15 years between 1999 and 2013. Results: The incidence rate of cardiac arrest was 2.18 per 100,000 participants. As shown in Table 1, the incidence rates were 2.00 per 100,000 participants in full marathon and 2.50 per 100,000 participants in half-marathon. A total of 63 cardiac arrests occurred in the past 15 years, and the number of incidents has been increasing every year. Among 63 cardiac arrest cases, the mean age was 45.3 ± 14.9 years old and 93.7% (59/63 cases) were in males. Eighty-three percentage of cardiac arrest cases applied AED (20/24 cases) were the shockable rhythm. In terms of the survival rate, there was a statistically significant difference between the cases where both bystander CPR and PAD were delivered and the cases where the only bystander CPR took place without PAD (95.0% vs. 47.1%;p Conclusions: Performing PAD on the scene during marathon races could be expected to be higher in the survival rate. Creating a medical support system is needed to handle sudden cardiac arrest rapidly in order to perform early bystander CPR and PAD.

Sudden cardiac arrest in a patient with epilepsy induced by chronic inflammation on the cerebral surface

The present study analyzed a patient with epilepsy due to chronic inflammation on the cerebral surface underwent sudden cardiac arrest. Paradoxical brain discharge, which occurred prior to epileptic seizures, induced a sudden cardiac arrest. However, when the focal brain pressure was relieved, cardiac arrest disappeared. A 27-year-old male patient underwent pre-surgical ram monitoring for 160 hours. During monitoring, secondary tonic-clonic seizures occurred five times. A burst of paradoxical brain discharges occurred at 2-19 seconds （mean 8 seconds） prior to epileptic seizures. After 2-3 seconds, sudden cardiac arrest occurred and lasted for 12-22 seconds （average 16 seconds）. The heart rate subsequently returned to a normal rate. Results revealed arachnoid pachymenia and adhesions, as well as mucus on the focal cerebral surface, combined with poor circulation and increased pressure, lntracranial electrodes were placed using surgical methods. Following removal of the arachnoid adhesions and mucus on the local cerebral surface, paradoxical brain discharge and epileptic seizures occurred three times, but sudden cardiac arrest was not recorded during 150-hour monitoring. Post-surgical histological examination indicated meningitis. Experimental findings suggested that paradoxical brain discharge led to cardiac arrest instead of epileptic seizures; the insult was associated with chronic inflammation on the cerebral surface, which subsequently led to hypertension and poor blood circulation in focal cerebral areas.

Meta-analysis of the success rate of heartbeat recovery in patients with prehospital cardiac arrest in the past 40 years in China

Background:Systematic evaluation of the successful heartbeat recovery rate(HRR)in patients during the platinum ten minutes after cardiac arrest.Methods:The databases of CNKI(January 1979–March 2019),Chongqing VIP(January 1989–March 2019),Wanfang(January 1990–March 2019)and Web of Science(January 1900-May 2020)were searched.To collect the clinical data of patients with cardiac arrest before hospitalization and analyze the cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR)at different times.Literature selection and data extraction were carried out by two researchers independently,and the meta package of R software(version 3.61)was used for analysis.Results:A total of 116 papers met the inclusion criteria,including 37,181 patients.Of these patients,3367 had their heartbeats successfully restored.The results showed a high degree of heterogeneity(χ2=6999.21,P<0.01,I2=97.6%).The meta-analysis was conducted using a random-effects model.The combined effect size was 0.199(0.157–0.250).(1)According to the five CPR groups(International Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Guide 2000,2005,2010,2015 and other versions),the HRR of other versions[0.264(0.176–0.375)]was higher than the International Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation 2005 edition[0.121(0.092–0.158)].(2)The rescue time was divided into the 0 to≤5 min group,the 5 to≤10 min group,the 10 to≤15 min group,and the>15 min group.The HRR were 0.417(0.341–0.496),0.143(0.104–0.193),0.049(0.034–0.069),and 0.022(0.009–0.051),respectively.The HRR was higher in the 0 to≤5 min group than in the 5 to≤10 min group,the 10 to≤15 min group and the>15 min group.There was no difference between the 10 to≤15 min group and the>15 min group.(3)When the groups were stratified with the cutoff of 10 min,the≤10 min group HRR[0.250(0.202–0.306)]was higher than the>10 min group rate[0.041(0.029–0.057)].(4)The HRR of the telephone guidance group was[0.273(0.227–0.325)]lower than that of the 0 to≤5 min group[0.429(0.347–0.516)]but higher than that of the 5 to≤10 min group,the 10 to≤15 min group,and the>15 min group.(5)The HRR of the witness group[0.325(0.216–0.458)]was not different from that of the 0 to≤5 min group,but it was higher than those of the 5 to≤10 min group,the 10 to≤15 min group and the>15 min group.(6)There was no significant difference HRR between the witnessed group,the telephone guidance group and the≤10 min group.Conclusions:(1)The HRR is time-sensitive,and early rescue can improve it.(2)CPR performed within the platinum ten minutes must be executed by the public,and other forces are auxiliary.(3)The concept of peri-cardiac arrest period(PCAP)should be established and improved to guide CPR.

Coronary angiography findings in cardiac arrest patients with non-diagnostic post-resuscitation electrocardiogram:A comparison of shockable and non-shockable initial rhythms

AIM To investigate the impact of coronary artery disease in a cohort of patients resuscitated from cardiac arrest with non-diagnostic electrocardiogram.METHODS From March 2004 to February 2016, 203 consecutive patients resuscitated from in or out-of-hospital sudden cardiac arrest and non-diagnostic post-resuscitation electrocardiogram(defined as ST segment elevation or pre-sumably new left bundle branch block) whounderwent invasive coronary angiogram during hospitalization were included. For purpose of analysis and comparison, patients were classified in two groups: Initial shockable rhythm(ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation; n = 148, 72.9%) and initial non-shockable rhythm(n = 55, 27.1%). Baseline characteristics, coronary angiogram findings including Syntax Score and long-term survival rates were compared. RESULTS Sudden cardiac arrest was witnessed in 95.2% of cases, 66.7% were out-of-hospital patients and 72.4% were male. There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics between groups except for higher mean age(68.1 years vs 61 years, P = 0.001) in the nonshockable rhythm group. Overall 5-year mortality of the resuscitated patients was 37.4%. Patients with non-shockable rhythms had higher mortality(60% vs 29.1%, P < 0.001) and a worst neurological status at hospital discharge based on cerebral performance category score(CPC 1-2: 32.7% vs 53.4%, P = 0.02). Although there were no significant differences in global burden of coronary artery disease defined by Syntax Score(mean Syntax Score: 10.2 vs 10.3, P = 0.96) there was a trend towards a higher incidence of acute coronary lesions in patients with shockable rhythm(29.7% vs 16.4%, P = 0.054). There was also a higher need for ad-hoc percutaneous coronary intervention in this group(21.9% vs 9.1%, P = 0.03). CONCLUSION Initial shockable group of patients had a trend towards higher incidence of acute coronary lesions and higher need of ad-hoc percutaneous intervention vs nonshockable group.

Invasive strategy in patients with resuscitated cardiac arrest and ST elevation myocardial infarction

Coronary artery disease is the most frequent cause of sudden cardiac death. There is general consensus that immediate coronary angiography with percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) should be performed in all conscious and unconscious patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction in post-resuscitation electrocardiogram. In these patients acute coronary thrombotic lesion("ACS" lesion) suitable for PCI is typically present in more than 90%. PCI in these patients is not only feasible and safe but highly effective and there is evidence of improved survival with good neurological outcome. PCI of the culprit lesion is the primary goal while PCI of stable obstructive lesions may be postponed unless post-resuscitation cardiogenic shock is present.
