In-Hospital Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation of Patients With Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection: A Population-Based Cohort Study of Epidemiology and Outcomes

摘要

Background:Marked improvements were realized in both short-term and long-term outcomes of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients following the introduction of combination antiretroviral therapy. However, the contemporary population-level patterns of in-hospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and the outcomes of HIV-infected patients were not systematically examined.Methods:We used the Texas Inpatient Public Use Data File to identify hospitalizations aged ≥ 18 years with and without HIV during 2009 - 2014, and those in each group who have undergone in-hospital CPR. Short-term survival (defined as absence of hospital mortality or discharge to hospice) following in-hospital CPR was examined. Multivariate logistic regression modeling was used to assess the prognostic impact of HIV infection following in-hospital CPR and predictors of short-term survival among HIV hospitalizations.Results:In-hospital CPR was reported in 437 and 54,135 hospitalizations with and without HIV, respectively. The rates of in-hospital CPR (per 1,000 hospitalizations) were 4.4 and 4.1 among hospitalizations with and without HIV, respectively (P = 0.1659). The corresponding rates of in-hospital CPR among decedents were 11% and 11.8%, respectively (P = 0.1531). Crude short-term survival following in-hospital CPR among hospitalizations with and without HIV was 19% and 26.8%, respectively (P = 0.0003). The corresponding adjusted short-term survival between 2009 and 2014 rose from 14.2% to 27% (P = 0.0009 for trend) and from 25.5% to 28% (P 0.0001 for trend). HIV infection was associated with lower odds of short-term survival following in-hospital CPR (adjusted odds ratio (aOR): 0.50, 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 0.39 - 0.65). Select comorbid conditions (congestive heart failure, aOR: 2.03, 95% CI: 1.20 - 2.46; cerebrovascular disease, aOR: 2.08, 95% CI: 1.15 - 3.75; and diabetes, aOR: 1.53, 95% CI 1.31 - 4.71) were the only independent predictors of short-term survival following in-hospital CPR among HIV hospitalizations.Conclusions:The rates of in-hospital CPR were similar among hospitalizations with and without HIV infection, with similar level of selectivity among decedents. Although HIV infection was associated with lower short-term survival following in-hospital CPR for the whole cohort, a dramatic improvement was observed during the study period among affected patients, with short-term survival rates becoming near-similar to those without HIV. Further studies are needed to identify modifiable factors to further improve the outcomes following in-hospital CPR among patients with HIV infection.Copyright 2020, Oud.
