How cardiogenic shock in NSTEMI is different from STEMI?

Dr. S. Venkatesan MD

Cardiogenic shock (CS)is the most feared event following STEMI. A subset of NSTEMI precipitated by acute severe HT and flash pulmonary edema has excellent prognosis if BP is reduced promptly. Non-STEMI vs. STEMI Cardiogenic Shock: Clinical Profile and Long-Term Outcomes. Global ST depression (AVR.V1 Reference 1.Martínez

male, 67% acute myocardial infarction, 33% acute decompensated heart failure), 45 (41.3%), 33 (30.3%), and 31 (28.4%) were in SCAI Shock Stages C, D, and E, respectively. A suggestive trend of improving 30day survival was observed (56.8%, 63.9%, and 72.2%

Hemodynamic Characteristics and Prognostic Implication of Modified Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions Shock Classification in Comatose Patients With Out‐of‐Hospital Cardiac Arrest

Journal of the American Heart Association

BackgroundCardiogenic shock complicating acute myocardial infarction is associated with a high mortality rate. Cardiogenic shock after outofhospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) can be due to transient myocardial stunning but also reflect the increasing severity of ongoing heart failure. as SCAI class D, and 38.5%

Chest Pain and Inferior ST Elevation.

Dr. Smith's ECG Blog

I have always said that tachycardia should argue against acute MI unless there is cardiogenic shock or 2 simultaneous pathologies. The goal of the present analysis was to examine whether the presence of tachycardia identified patients unlikely to have type 1 myocardial infarction. Clin Cardiol 22:334-344, 1999 ).

Transfer to Hub Hospitals and Outcomes in Cardiogenic Shock

Circulation: Heart Failure

BACKGROUND:There are limited large-scale data on the outcomes of patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) transferred to hub centers. During the hospitalization, they had higher rates of renal failure, pulmonary artery catheter use, and mechanical circulatory support use. Circulation: Heart Failure, Ahead of Print.

Assessment was severe sudden cardiogenic shock. and the patient was converted to veno-venous (V-V) ECMO due to persistent pulmonary insufficiency. In normal times, the most common use of cTni is in diagnosing, or ruling out, acute myocardial infarction (AMI, a subcategory of acute myocardial injury.
