    BackgroundIt has been insufficiently investigated whether neurological function after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) would differ by 1 °C change in ordered target temperature of 33-36 °C among patients undergoing targeted temperature management (TTM) in the real-world setting.MethodsThis nationwide hospital-based observational study (The Japanese Association for Acute Medicine-OHCA Registry) conducted between June 2014 and December 2015 in Japan included OHCA patients aged ≥18 years who were treated with TTM. The primary outcome was one-month survival with neurologically favorable outcomes defined by cerebral performance category 1 or 2. To investigate the effect of TTM by 1 °C change in ordered target temperature of 33-36 °C on each outcome, random effects logistic regression analyses were performed.ResultsThe final analysis included 738 patients. The proportion of patients with neurologically favorable outcome was 30.4% (7/23), 31.7% (175/552), 28.9% (11/38), and 30.4% (38/125) in the 33 °C, 34 °C, 35 °C, and 36 °C groups, respectively. In the multivariable logistic regression analysis, no group had a higher proportion of neurologically favorable outcome compared with the 34 °C group (vs. 33 °C group, adjusted odds ratio [AOR] 0.90; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.25-3.12, vs. 35 °C group, AOR 1.17; 95% CI 0.44-3.13, vs. 36 °C group, AOR 1.26; 95% CI 0.78-2.02).ConclusionsIn this population, we evaluated the difference in outcomes after adult OHCA patients received TTM by 1 °C change in ordered target temperature of 33-36 °C and demonstrated that there was no statistically significant difference in neurologically favorable outcomes after OHCA irrespective of target temperature.Copyright © 2018 Elsevier B.V.
