Abstract
Background
Percutaneous cannulation is now accepted as the first-line strategy for extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) in adults. However, previous studies comparing percutaneous cannulation to surgical cannulation have been limited by small sample size and single-center settings. This study aimed to compare in-hospital outcomes in cardiac arrest (CA) patients who received femoro-femoral ECPR with percutaneous vs surgical cannulation.
Methods
Adults with refractory CA treated with percutaneous (percutaneous group) or surgical (surgical group) femoro-femoral ECPR between January 2008 and December 2019 were extracted from the international Extracorporeal Life Support Organization registry. The primary outcome was severe neurological complication. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to assess the association between percutaneous cannulation and in-hospital outcomes.
Results
Among 3575 patients meeting study inclusion, 2749 (77%) underwent percutaneous cannulation. The proportion of patients undergoing percutaneous cannulation increased from 18% to 89% over the study period (p < 0.001 for trend). Severe neurological complication (13% vs 19%; p < 0.001) occurred less frequently in the percutaneous group compared to the surgical group. In adjusted analyses, percutaneous cannulation was independently associated with lower rate of severe neurological complication (odds ratio [OR] 0.62; 95% CI 0.46–0.83; p = 0.002), similar rates of in-hospital mortality (OR 0.93; 95% CI 0.73–1.17; p = 0.522), limb ischemia (OR 0.84; 95% CI 0.58–1.20; p = 0.341) and cannulation site bleeding (OR 0.90; 95% CI 0.66–1.22; p = 0.471). The comparison of outcomes provided similar results across different levels of center percutaneous experience or center ECPR volume.
Conclusions
Among adults receiving ECPR, percutaneous cannulation was associated with probable lower rate of severe neurological complication, and similar rates of in-hospital mortality, limb ischemia and cannulation site bleeding.
