Popis: OBJECTIVES Preventing loss of life in patients with type A acute aortic dissection (AAD) who present with cardiopulmonary arrest (CPA) can be extremely difficult. Thus, we investigated the early outcomes in these patients. METHODS Patients with type A AAD who were transported to hospitals belonging to the Tokyo Acute Aortic Super-network between January 2015 and December 2019 were considered for this study. We assessed the early mortality of these patients presenting with CPA and also investigated the differences in outcomes between patients with out-of-hospital and in-hospital CPA. RESULTS A total of 3307 patients with type A AAD were transported, 434 (13.1%) of whom presented with CPA. The overall mortality of patients presenting with CPA was 88.2% (383/434), of which 94.5% (240/254) experienced out-of-hospital CPA and 79.4% (143/180) experienced in-hospital CPA (P CONCLUSIONS Patients with type A AAD presenting with CPA exhibited extremely high rates of death. Patient outcomes following in-hospital CPA tended to be better than those following out-of-hospital CPA; however, this difference was not significantly different. To prevent deaths, aortic surgery, when possible, should be considered in patients with type A AAD who sustained CPA.
