OBJECTIVES: A significant proportion of the population has a patent foramen ovale (PFO). The intracardiac pressure during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) may differ from that of normal circulation, which may result in a right-to-left shunt in the presence of a PFO. In this study, transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) was conducted to evaluate whether CPR carried out in patients after cardiac arrest causes right-to-left shunt.
DESIGN: A retrospective observational study.
SETTING: One academic medical center from January 2017 to April 2020.
PATIENTS: Patients older than 20 years who suffered from nontraumatic out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and underwent intra-arrest TEE.
MEASUREMENT AND MAIN RESULTS: Patients who had microbubbles resulting from fluid injection in the right atrium, as indicated on TEE imaging, were included in the analysis. The presence of right-to-left shunt was defined as the appearance of microbubbles in the systemic circulation, including the left atrium, left ventricle, or aorta. A total of 97 patients were included in the final analysis. A right-to-left shunt was observed in 21 patients (21.6%), and no shunt was found in 76 patients (78.4%). The degree of the right-to-left shunt, determined by the number of microbubbles, was mild in 11 patients (52.4%), moderate in eight (38.0%), and severe in two (9.6%). Multivariate analysis showed that no factors were associated with the presence of right-to-left shunt during CPR.
CONCLUSIONS: Right-to-left shunts can be appreciated during CPR in patients who experience OHCA. Further studies are needed to verify its clinical significance.
