ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Limited research has analyzed the association between diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and survival after pediatric cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). This study aimed to explore the association between post-resuscitation diastolic blood pressure and survival in pediatric patients who underwent CPR.
METHOD: This retrospective single-center study included pediatric patients admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit of Asan Medical Center between January 2016 to November 2022. Patients undergoing extracorporeal CPR and those with unavailable data were excluded. The primary endpoint was survival to ICU discharge.
RESULTS: A total of 106 patients were included, with 67 (63.2%) achieving survival to ICU discharge. Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified DBP within 1 h after ROSC as the sole significant variable (p = 0.002, aOR, 1.043; 95% CI, 1.016-1.070). Additionally, DBP within 1 h demonstrated an area under the ROC curve of 0.7 (0.592-0.809) for survival to ICU discharge, along with mean blood pressure within the same timeframe.
CONCLUSION: Our study highlights the importance of DBP within 1-hour post-ROSC as a significant prognostic factor for survival to ICU discharge. However, further validation through further prospective large-scale studies is warranted to confirm the appropriate post-resuscitation DBP of pediatric patients.
