Abstract

In this article, we investigated whether non-neurologic multiorgan dysfunction syndrome (MODS) following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) predicts poor 12-month survival. We conducted a secondary data analysis of therapeutic hypothermia after pediatric cardiac arrest out-of-hospital randomized trial involving children who remained unconscious and intubated after OHCA (n = 237). Associations between MODS and 12-month outcomes were assessed using multivariable logistic regression. Non-neurologic MODS was present in 95% of patients and sensitive (97%; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 93–99%) for 12-month survival but had poor specificity (10%; 95% CI: 4–21%). Development of non-neurologic MODS is not helpful to predict long-term neurologic outcome or survival after OHCA.
