    AbstractCurrent guidelines suggest the maintenance of systolic blood pressure (SBP) at >90 mmHg and mean arterial pressure (MAP) at >65 mmHg in postcardiac arrest patients. There remains a lack of clarity regarding optimal values and timing of blood pressure parameters associated with the improvement of neurologic outcome. We investigated the association of time-weighted average (TWA) blood pressure parameters with favorable neurological outcome (FO) in postcardiac arrest patients. This was a registry-based observational study with consecutive adult out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) survivors who were treated using targeted temperature management (TTM). During 72 hours of TTM period, we abstracted hemodynamic parameters such as SBP, diastolic blood pressure, pulse rate (PR), and MAP. Shock index (SI; PR/SBP) and modified shock index (MSI; PR/MAP) were calculated from each measured hemodynamics. Logistic regression was performed to assess the associations between TWA blood pressure parameters and FO, defined as cerebral performance category 1 or 2 at hospital discharge. Among the 173 patients (median age: 58 years; 64% male), 51 (29.3%) had FO in this study. MAP, SI, and MSI at 6 hours after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) showed considerable differences in patients with FO (MAP: 89.1 ± 14.7 vs. 83.6 ± 15.8 mmHg, p = 0.033, SI: 0.7 ± 0.2 vs. 0.9 ± 0.9, p = 0.002, MSI: 1.0 ± 0.3 vs. 1.2 ± 0.3, p ≤ 0.001). Among them, MSI, especially at 6 hours, had the highest area under the curve for prediction of FO (0.685; 95% confidence interval: 0.597-0.772, p < 0.001). Also, MSI <1.0 had a sensitivity of 64.7%, a specificity of 64.2% to predict FO. In comatose survivors of OHCA with TTM, MSI at 6 hours after ROSC had the highest prognostic value for neurologic outcome among blood pressure parameters.
