Clinical use and impact of mechanical circulatory support for myocardial infarction-related cardiogenic shock in the Netherlands: a registry-based propensity-matched analysis

Open Heart

Background Despite limited beneficial evidence, mechanical circulatory support (MCS) is commonly used in patients with acute myocardial infarction-related cardiogenic shock (AMI-CS). In this Dutch registry, we investigated MCS usage, associated patient characteristics and clinical outcomes.

Abstract 4145617: Racial Disparities in Management and Outcomes of Acute Myocardial Infarction and Non-Acute Myocardial Infarction Related Cardiogenic Shock: An Analysis of the National Inpatient Sample Database

Circulation

There is limited understanding of race differences in the management and outcomes of CS.Methods:We queried the US National Inpatient Sample database (years 2016-2021) for CS hospitalizations in adults and categorized them by presence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) on admission.
