Most resuscitated victims of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest who survive to hospital expire due to the postresuscitation syndrome. This syndrome is characterized by a sepsis-like proinflammatory state. The objective of this investigation was to determine whether a relationship exists between the rise of tumor necrosis factor (TNF), a proinflammatory cytokine, following return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), and early postarrest survival in a clinically relevant animal model of spontaneous ventricular fibrillation (VF). Mixed-breed Yorkshire swine (n=20), weighing 39 +/- 5kg, were anesthetized and catheters placed in the right atrium and left ventricle/ascending aorta for continuous pressure monitoring. VF was induced by occluding the left anterior descending coronary artery with an angioplasty balloon. After 7min of untreated VF, advanced life support resuscitation attempts were made for up to 20min. Animals achieving ROSC were monitored for 3h and fluid and pressor support was administered as needed. TNF levels were measured before VF and at 0, 15, and 30min after ROSC using quantitative sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Twelve (60%) animals experienced early death, expiring during the 3 hour postarrest period (9 pulseless electrical activity, 2 VF, and 1 asystole). The TNF level at 15min post-ROSC was significantly associated with death within the first 3h post-ROSC with a univariate odds ratio of 1.4 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.05-2.2, P=0.01]. Using a cutoff TNF level of 525pg/mL at 15min post-ROSC had 100% negative predictive value (95% CI 0%-37%) and 67% positive predictive value (95% CI 35%-90%) for early death with a hazard ratio of 6.6 (95% CI 1.9-23.5). TNF increases shortly after ROSC and is predictive of early death. Early identification of resuscitated victims at greatest risk for hemodynamic collapse and recurrent arrest might facilitate the use of early hospital-based interventions to decrease the likelihood of a poor outcome.
