Abstract 338: Relationship Between Post-arrest Care Cardiac Index and Clinical Outcomes in Comatose Survivors of Out-of-hospital Cardiac Arrest: Insights From the CAPITAL-RETURN Trial
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Introduction: Comatose survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) have decreased cardiac index (CI) following return of spontaneous circulation. Although reversible, a reduced CI can contribute to cerebral hypoperfusion and impaired neurologic outcomes. We sought to examine the relationship between CI and clinical outcomes following OHCA. Methods: CAPITAL-RETURN was a prospective study examining hemodynamics in comatose survivors of OHCA undergoing targeted temperature management. Between August 2016 and December 2017, comatose survivors of OHCA with an initial shockable rhythm underwent continuous, blinded monitoring of CI using bioimpedance (Cheetah Medical, Portland, OR, USA) for 96 hours after intensive care unit (ICU) admission. In the present study, we examined the association between CI and the composite of death or severe neurologic dysfunction at 6 months (primary outcome) using logistic regression. Severe neurologic dysfunction was defined as a modified Rankin Scale score ≥4. We excluded patients who died or had withdrawal of advanced life support within 72 hours of ICU admission. Results: In 53 patients in this analysis (mean age 59±13 years, downtime 24±13 minutes, STEMI 35%), the rate of the primary outcome was 25%. The mean CI was lower in patients with (3.0±0.5 L/min/m 2 ) versus without (3.3±0.5 L/min/m 2 ) the primary outcome (p=0.018). A higher mean CI during the first 96 hours of ICU admission was associated with lower rates of the primary outcome (OR 0.85 per 0.1L/min/m 2 increase in CI; p=0.025). This association persisted after adjusting for age and downtime (OR 0.78 per 0.1L/min/m2 increase in CI; p=0.014). Cardiac index was similar in patients with versus without the primary outcome at the end of the 96-hour monitoring period (Figure). Conclusion: In comatose survivors of OHCA with an initial shockable rhythm, a higher CI during the first 96 hours of ICU admission is associated with lower rates of death or severe neurologic dysfunction.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
