Objective
: Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a new technology for monitoring of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The use
of NIRS has advantages to monitoring cerebral oxygenation in the cardiac arrest patients. In this prospective study, the efficacy of the
NIRS device on the determination of ROSC or futility of CPR was investigated in pediatric out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients in
the emergency department.
Methods
: All the out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients who admitted to our pediatric emergency department were included in this
prospective study. All patients were monitored via NIRS besides standard monitoring during CPR. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation
was performed accordingly Pediatric Advanced Life Support 2010 guideline.
Results
: 10 patients were included to this study. The median (IQR) age of patients was 40.0 (14.0-88.2) months. Three (30%) of 10
patients had been achieved sustained ROSC. Abruptly increments in cerebral regional oxygen saturation (CrSO
2
) were observed in
all these three patients. Minimum values of the CrSO
2
were significantly higher and the percentages of the median times under the
30% of CrSO
2
were significantly lower in the ROSC group (p=0.02, p=0.02).
Conclusions
: Our study indicated that low CrSO
2
value can be a predictive factor for futility of CPR. Additionally, abruptly increment
of CrSO
2
during CPR can be an indicator for ROSC but on-going high level of CrSO
2
values should be maintain for sustained ROSC.
