چکیده

OBJECTIVE Prior studies suggest adverse associations between out-of-hospital advanced airway management (AAM) and patient outcomes after major trauma. This secondary analysis of data from the Resuscitation Outcomes Consortium Hypertonic Saline Trial evaluated associations between out-of-hospital AAM and outcomes in patients suffering isolated severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) or haemorrhagic shock. METHODS This multicentre study included adults with severe TBI (GCS ≤8) or haemorrhagic shock (SBP ≤70 mm Hg, or (SBP 71-90 mm Hg and heart rate ≥108 bpm)). We compared patients receiving out-of-hospital AAM with those receiving emergency department AAM. We evaluated the associations between airway strategy and patient outcomes (28-day mortality, and 6-month poor neurologic or functional outcome) and airway strategy, adjusting for confounders. Analysis was stratified by (1) patients with isolated severe TBI and (2) patients with haemorrhagic shock with or without severe TBI. RESULTS Of 2135 patients, we studied 1116 TBI and 528 shock; excluding 491 who died in the field, did not receive AAM or had missing data. In the shock cohort, out-of-hospital AAM was associated with increased 28-day mortality (adjusted OR 5.14; 95% CI 2.42 to 10.90). In TBI, out-of-hospital AAM showed a tendency towards increased 28-day mortality (adjusted OR 1.57; 95% CI 0.93 to 2.64) and 6-month poor functional outcome (1.63; 1.00 to 2.68), but these differences were not statistically significant. Out-of-hospital AAM was associated with poorer 6-month TBI neurologic outcome (1.80; 1.09 to 2.96). CONCLUSIONS Out-of-hospital AAM was associated with increased mortality after haemorrhagic shock. The adverse association between out-of-hospital AAM and injury outcome is most pronounced in patients with haemorrhagic shock.

Cotreatment with Furosemide and Hypertonic Saline Decreases Serum Neutrophil Gelatinase-associated Lipocalin (NGAL) and Serum Creatinine Concentrations in Traumatic Brain Injury: A Randomized, Single-Blind Clinical Trial

Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs both after traumatic brain injury (TBI) and after hypertonic saline administration; furosemide may be useful in preventing AKI indirectly. Serum neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (sNGAL) is superior to serum creatinine (sCr) in diagnosing early AKI. We compared the administration of hypertonic saline plus furosemide (HTS+F) versus hypertonic saline (HTS...

Regulatory challenges for the resuscitation outcomes consortium.

Resuscitation research is challenging but vital because few effective therapies exist for a number of life-threatening conditions. Cardiovascular disease has been a leading cause of death and morbidity in the United States. Although estimates vary, the American Heart Association estimates 150 000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests each year in the United States,1 with little improvement in surviva...

Background and Objective: Traumatic brain injury is one of the main causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide and the second leading cause of death in Iran. About half of patients with traumatic brain injury have hemoglobin of less than 9 g/dL during the first week of admission. With regard to the secondary damage to brain tissues caused by anemia and blood transfusion complications, we decid...

Comment on Grmec et al.: A treatment protocol including vasopressin and hydroxyethyl starch solution is associated with increased rate of return of spontaneous circulation in blunt trauma patients with pulseless electrical activity

Dear Editor, The study by Grmec et al. is encouraging given the very high mortality of trauma victims who experience out-ofhospital pulseless electrical activity (PEA) arrest [1, 2]. In the treatment group there were three interventions: vasopressin, hypertonic saline and hydroxyethyl starch (hypertonic hydroxyethyl starch in the study). However, caution is to be advocated in the use of hydroxy...
