Abstract 203: Exploratory Study Of The Time Course Of Post-arrest Neurologic Injury In A Porcine Model Of Pediatric Cardiac Arrest

IntroductionIn preclinical models, hemodynamic-directed CPR (HD-CPR) mitigates post-arrest neurofunctional impairment and cerebral mitochondrial dysfunction. We aimed to explore the temporal evolution of markers of neurologic injury over five days following cardiac arrest treated with HD-CPR. Method...

Description
Summary:IntroductionIn preclinical models, hemodynamic-directed CPR (HD-CPR) mitigates post-arrest neurofunctional impairment and cerebral mitochondrial dysfunction. We aimed to explore the temporal evolution of markers of neurologic injury over five days following cardiac arrest treated with HD-CPR. MethodsPigs (1-month-old) underwent 7min asphyxia, induction of ventricular fibrillation, 10-20min of HD-CPR (goal SBP 90 mmHg, coronary perfusion pressure 20mmHg), randomization to post-ROSC survival duration (24, 48, 72, 96, 120h; n=3 per group) with standardized post-resuscitation care. Plasma neurofilament light (NFL) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) were collected at 0, 6, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120h and compared by mixed effects analysis. At terminal endpoints, cerebral cortical tissue was assessed formitochondrial electron transport system function; citrate synthase quantification (mitochondrial mass); immunoblot quantification of mitochondrial dynamic proteins (Opa-1, MFN-2, DRP-1, FIS-1); ELISA for 4-HNE and protein carbonyls (oxidative injury); and neuropathologic examination for IBA-1 (microglial activation) and GFAP (reactive astrocytes), all compared via ANOVA. ResultsAll animals had swine cerebral performance category score of 1 (grossly normal) by 24h after injury. Plasma NFL was significantly elevated at 24, 48, 72, 96 (p
