Endovascular aortic occlusion improves return of spontaneous circulation after longer periods of cardiopulmonary resuscitation: A translational study in pigs.
Resuscitation plus. 2024 June
INTRODUCTION: Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) has emerged as an adjunct to CPR for nontraumatic cardiac arrest (NTCA). This translational study investigated the impact of varying low-flow duration (15- vs 30-mins) on REBOA's hemodynamic performance and ability to achieve return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) in a porcine model.
METHODS: Thirty-two pigs were anesthetized and placed into ventricular fibrillation. All animals received a 4-min no-flow period before CPR was initiated. Animals were randomized into four groups: 15- vs 30-minutes of CPR; REBOA vs. no-REBOA. After completion of 15- or 30-minute low-flow, ACLS was initiated and REBOA was inflated in experimental animals.
RESULTS: In the 15-mins groups, there were no differences in the rates of ROSC between REBOA (4/8, 50%) and control (4/8, 50%; p = 0.99). However, in the 30-min groups, the REBOA animals had a significantly higher rate of ROSC (6/8, 75%) compared to control (1/8, 12.5%; p = 0.04). In the 7-mins after REBOA deployment in the 30-min animals there was a statistically significant difference in coronary perfusion pressure (REBOA 42.1 mmHg, control 3.6 mmHg, p = 0.038). Importantly, 5/6 animals that obtained ROSC in the 30-min group with REBOA re-arrested at least once, with 3/6 maintaining ROSC until study completion.
CONCLUSION: In our porcine model of NTCA, REBOA preferentially improved hemodynamics and ROSC after a 30-mins period of low-flow CPR. REBOA may be a viable strategy to improve ROSC after prolonged downtime, however, more hemodynamic support will be required to maintain ROSC.
