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.

Emergency interventions for cardiogenic shock due to decompensated aortic stenosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Open Heart

Background Cardiogenic shock (CS) induced by severe aortic stenosis (AS) is a life-threatening condition with high mortality. In-hospital mortality pooled estimated rates were 11% for eTAVI (CI 0.06 - 0.18) and for eBAV 40% (CI 0.28 - 0.54). Methods A systematic literature review and meta-analysis was performed.

Case Report: Fatal atrioesophageal fistula following atrial fibrillation ablation—critical reflections on prevention

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

This case report describes a unique instance of a patient developing AEF following AF ablation, accompanied by ischemic stroke and myocardial infarction. Upon admission, physical examination and laboratory tests revealed vital signs within abnormal ranges and indicators suggesting inflammation and potential myocardial injury.

Impella and venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in cardiogenic shock complicating acute myocardial infarction

European Journal of Heart Failure

Impella and venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) in patients with acute myocardial infarction-related cardiogenic shock (AMICS). Impella patients were older (34% vs. 13% >75 years, p  < 0.001) and less frequently presented after an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (18% vs. 40%, p  < 0.001).

Early Utilization of Mechanical Circulatory Support in Acute Myocardial Infarction Complicated by Cardiogenic Shock: The National Cardiogenic Shock Initiative

Journal of the American Heart Association

BackgroundAcute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock (AMI‐CS) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The primary end point was in‐hospital mortality. Survival rates to hospital discharge were high. A total of 406 patients were enrolled at 80 sites between 2016 and 2020.

Prediction of In?Hospital Mortality for Ischemic Cardiogenic Shock Requiring Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

Journal of the American Heart Association

BackgroundClinical outcome of ischemic cardiogenic shock (CS) requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is highly variable, necessitating appropriate assessment of prognosis. Fifteen parameters were selected to assess in‐hospital mortality. RegistrationURL:[link] Unique identifier: NCT02985008.

Evidence for Mechanical Circulatory Support in Cardiogenic Shock

JAMA Cardiology

In a seminal case series published in 1967, Killip and Kimball reported 81% in-hospital mortality for patients presenting with acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock (AMI-CS).
