2025 and Cardiogenic Shock - Cardiovascular Update

Survivorship After Cardiogenic Shock

Circulation

JANUARY 20, 2025

Circulation, Volume 151, Issue 3 , Page 257-271, January 21, 2025. Advances in critical care therapies for patients with cardiogenic shock (CS), including temporary mechanical circulatory support and multidisciplinary shock teams, have led to improved survival to hospital discharge, ranging from 60% to 70%.

Unresponsive and Acidotic: OMI? Acute, subacute, or reperfused? What is the rhythm? Why RV dysfunction? Can CT scan help?

Assessment : Cardiology thought this was cardiogenic shock from RV dysfunction. Smith Comment: the RV was very ischemic on the CT scan and dysfunctional on echo, and this does explain the shock. Probable anterior and anterolateral wall hypokinesis. Right ventricular enlargement. Decreased right ventricular systolic performance.

A 2017 trial named CULPRIT SHOCK found that in patients with cardiogenic shock, a strategy of culprit vessel PCI only was associated with better outcomes than immediate multivessel PCI. After CULPRIT SHOCK, many shied away from multivessel PCI in the acute setting. In fact, in this elegant study by Heitner et al.

Pulmonary edema, with tachycardia and OMI on the ECG -- what is going on?

MARCH 3, 2025

Whenever there is tachycardia, I am skeptical of OMI unless it has led to severely compromised ejection fracction with cardiogenic shock. However, there is also significant tachycardia , with heart rate of 116, and known hypoxia. Or I suspect that there is OMI simultaneous with another pathology.

1) as far as I can tell, there is very little data on amiodarone for this indication 2) amiodarone has beta blockade effects which could be deleterious in a patient with large anterior MI with pulmonary edema and at risk for cardiogenic shock (and she did go into shock. I focus my comment on expanding as to why this is so.

The ST Elevation is NOT typical. It is ofen downsloping This one is also a wide complex tachycardia.

Anyone who has seen and studied OMI patients knows that this patient with proximal LAD pattern, with super high risk ischemic RBBB, and tachycardia, is in cardiogenic shock until proven otherwise. This pattern has very high mortality. The Emergency Physician contacted the Cardiologist immediately asking for cath lab activation.
