Treatment of Hypothermic Cardiac Arrest in the Pediatric Drowning Victim, a Case Report, and Systematic Review

Abstract: Objectives: Drowning is the second leading cause of death in children.Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has become the criterion standard therapy to resuscitate the hypothermic drowning victim in cardiac arrest. We present our own experience treating 5 children with hypothermic cardiac arrest in conjunction with a systematic review to analyze clinical features predictive of survival.Methods: Our search resulted in 55 articles. Inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) younger than 18 years, (2) ECMO the… Show more

“…Patient data were reported on 1973 patients. Patient demographics were incomplete with regards to gender in eleven papers [19,20,[25][26][27][31][32][33][34][35]. Data presented included 1093 (55.4%) males and 545 (27.6%) females and were similarly incomplete with regards to age groups in seven papers [10,16,31,32,34,36,37], with a minimum of 675 (34.5%) children included.…”

“…The findings from the 6 new papers identified in this update 359b , 368 , 370 , 375 , 376 , 383 are consistent with the 2015 treatment recommendation. The previously identified limitations of this review (exclusion of factors after the victim is rescued, for example, bystander CPR 383 , 384 , 385 ; specialist interventions, such as the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation 386 , 387 , 388 , 389 , 390 , 391 , 392 , 393 ; and the lack of prospective validation of submersion duration as a clinical decision rule) persist. Similarly, continued reports of rare survival after prolonged (more than 30 minutes) submersion 387 , 392 , 394 highlight the need for case-by-case decisions that balance risk and potential for benefit.…”
