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.
