- Brief Summary
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is a public health problem for which overall survival is below 10%. Post-cardiac arrest syndrome is the principal cause of death in intensive care units (ICU), due to refractory shock or brain injuries secondary to anoxia. Brain anoxia is responsible for severe neurological sequelae that may be aggravated by cerebral hypoperfusion during the first few hours after the return of spontaneous circulation. Current recommendations are to ensure that arterial blood pressure is sufficient for the perfusion of organs, but no minimum threshold mean arterial pressure (MAP) has been defined. In practice, most teams target a MAP of at least 65 mmHg. Several observational studies have shown a correlation between MAP and neurological prognosis, patients with a higher initial MAP having a better outcome. Recent pilot studies have demonstrated the feasibility of increasing the target MAP after cardiac arrest, but conflicting results have been obtained concerning patient prognosis. These findings may be explained by changes to the autoregulation of the brain after cardiac arrest, with a shift of the curve towards the right, or its abolition. Cerebral blood flow is dependent on MAP, and a target MAP of 65 mmHg for these patients may result in insufficient brain perfusion. Conversely, a too high MAP might cause brain lesions due to vasogenic edema, hemorrhagic complications or excess perfusion in conditions of diminished brain metabolism. An interventional study is required to evaluate the effect of increasing MAP on neurofunctional outcome after cardiac arrest. Given the data available for brain autoregulation, the correlation between MAP and prognosis, and the risks theoretically associated with a higher MAP, investigator plans to compare a standard threshold of MAP (≥ 65 mmHg) with a high threshold of MAP (≥ 90 mmHg). Investigator hypothesizes that a high MAP within the first 24 hours after cardiac arrest will improve neurofunctional outcome.

Group Intervention Description standard MAP threshold Maintain MAP ≥ 65 mmHg Norepinephrine will be titrated to maintain MAP ≥ 65 mmHg. This target MAP will be maintained for 24 hours after randomization through the perfusion of norepinephrine at an appropriate flow rate. From 24 hours after inclusion until ICU discharge, a MAP ≥ 65 mmHg will be targeted high MAP threshold Maintain MAP ≥ 90 mmHg Norepinephrine will be titrated to maintain MAP ≥ 90 mmHg. This threshold will be maintained for the 24 hours following inclusion by the perfusion of norepinephrine at an appropriate dose. From 24 hours after inclusion until ICU discharge, a MAP ≥ 65 mmHg will be targeted
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Proportion of patients with a good neurofunctional outcome 180 days after inclusion 180 days after inclusion Good neurofunctional outcome will be defined by a modified Rankin scale (mRS) of 0 to 3.This score is a global evaluation scale for disability, with seven levels (0 = no symptoms; 6 = patient dead).This score will be measured by psychologist who will be blinded to the randomization arm.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Proportion of patients alive at Intensive Care Unit discharge, at hospital discharge, at day 28 (D28) and six months (D180) after inclusion From Intensive Care Unit admission to Intensive Care Unit discharge (up to 3 weeks), from hospital admission to hospital discharge (up to 12 weeks), 28 days and 180 days after inclusion Proportion of patients alive at Intensive Care Unit discharge, at hospital discharge, at day 28 (D28) and six months (D180) after inclusion
Proportion of patients alive at Intensive Care Unit discharge with good neurofunctionnal outcome From Intensive Care Unit admission to Intensive Care Unit discharge (up to 3 weeks) Good neurofunctional outcome will be defined by a modified Rankin scale (mRS) of 0 to 3.This score is a global evaluation scale for disability, with seven levels (0 = no symptoms; 6 = patient dead
Quality of life six months after inclusion 6 months after inclusion Quality of life is measured by EuroQol-5D-5L. It's a measure of health-related quality of life and comprises 5 dimensions (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression). EuroQol-5D-5L could be administered by telephone
Evaluation of Clinical Frailty at six months after inclusion Six months after inclusion Clinical Frailty is measured by the Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS). It summarizes the overall level of fitness or frailty of a patient with a score from 1 (very fit) to 9 (terminally ill)
Number of ICU-free days at Day 28 Day 28 Number of ICU-free days is calculated from the number of days alive outside the ICU by Day 28
Number of ventilator-free days, number of catecholamine-free days and number of renal replacement therapy-free days at day 28 28 days after inclusion Number of ventilator-free days, number of catecholamine-free days and number of renal replacement therapy-free days is calculated from the number of days alive without invasive mechanical ventilation, catecholamine infusion or renal replacement therapy by Day 28
Proportion of patients with acute kidney injury stage 3 and need for renal replacement therapy (RRT) within Intensive Care Unit stay and persistant need for RRT at Intensive Care Unit discharge From Intensive Care Unit admission to Intensive Care Unit discharge (up to 3 weeks) Acute kidney injury stage 3 is defined by at least one of the following criteria: serum creatinine concentration of more than 4 mg/dl (354 µmol/liter) or greater than 3 times the baseline creatinine level, anuria (urine output of 100 ml/day or less) for more than 12 hours, oliguria (urine output below 0.3 ml/kg/h or below 500 ml/day) for more than 24 hours;
