    Abstract:
    PURPOSE: Prognostication of hypoxic-ischaemic brain injury after resuscitation from cardiac arrest is based on a multimodal approach including biomarker assays. Our goal was to assess whether plasma NSE helps to predict day-90 death or poor neurological outcome in patients resuscitated from cardiac arrest in non-shockable rhythm. METHODS: All included patients participated in the randomised multicentre HYPERION trial. Serum blood samples were taken 24, 48, and 72 h after randomisation; pre-treated, aliquoted, and frozen at -80 °C at the study sites; and shipped to a central biology laboratory, where the NSE assays were performed. Primary outcome was neurological status at day 90 assessed by Cerebral Performance Category (1 or 2 versus. 3, 4 or 5). RESULTS: NSE was assayed in 235 assessable blood samples from 101 patients. In patients with good versus poor outcomes, median NSE values at 24, 48, and 72 h were 22.6 [95%CI, 14.6;27.3] ng/mL versus 33.6 [20.5;90.0] ng/mL (p < 0.04), 18.1 [11.7;29.7] ng/mL versus 76.8 [21.5;206.6] ng/mL (p < 0.0029), and 9 [6.1;18.6] ng/mL versus 80.5 [22.9;236.1] ng/mL (p < 0.001), respectively. NSE at 48 and 72 h predicted the neurological outcome with areas under the receiver-operating curve of 0.79 [95%CI, 0.69;0.96] and 0.9 [0.81;0.96], respectively. NSE levels did not differ significantly between the groups managed at 33°C and 37°C (p = 0.59). CONCLUSIONS: Data from a multicentre trial on cardiac arrest with a non-shockable rhythm due to any cause confirm that NSE values at 72 h are associated with 90-day outcome. NSE levels did not differ significantly according to the targeted temperature. REGISTRATION IDENTIFIER: ClinicalTrial NCT02722473.
