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. Despite advancements in emergency interventions, the optimal treatment approach remains uncertain. Methods A systematic literature review and meta-analysis was performed.

Revisiting nitrates use in pre-shock state of contemporary cardiogenic shock classification

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Patients at each shock stage may behave and present differently with a spectrum of shock severity and adverse outcomes. Shock severity, shock aetiology, and several factors should be integrated in management decision-making. The pre-shock state may comprise a wide range of presentations.

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). Methods and results This nationwide observational cohort study describes all AMICS patients treated with Impella (ABIOMED, Danvers, MA, USA) and/or VA-ECMO in 2020–2021.

Facility-based approach for the management of acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction with cardiogenic shock in a rural medical centre: the Durango model

Open Heart

Introduction Cardiogenic shock (CS) complicates 5%–15% of cases of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) with inpatient mortality greater than 40%. The implementation of standardised protocols may improve clinical outcomes in patients with AMI-CS.

How cardiogenic shock in NSTEMI is different from STEMI?

Dr. S. Venkatesan MD

Cardiogenic shock (CS)is the most feared event following STEMI. Outcome There are differing data about prognosis of CS in STEMI vs NSTEMI. Ironically, in many patients of CS in NSTEMI, the outcome can be worse than STEMI, as there is no single culprit and myocardial salvage does not appear to be a primary issue.

Treatment of Acute Myocardial Infarction and Cardiogenic Shock: Outcomes of the RECOVER III Postapproval Study by Society of Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions Shock Stage

Journal of the American Heart Association

BackgroundThe Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions proposed a staging system (A–E) to predict prognosis in cardiogenic shock. Patients enrolled in the RECOVER III study were assigned a baseline Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions shock stage. P<0.001).ConclusionsIn
