The recent widespread availability and use of mechanical circulatory support is transforming
the management and outcomes of cardiogenic shock (CS). Clinical decision-making …

Objectives The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between obtaining
hemodynamic data from early pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) placement and outcomes in …

Purpose To investigate the impact of pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) monitoring on survival
of cardiogenic shock (CS), in the light of the controversies in available evidence. Materials …

Cardiogenic shock is associated with significant morbidity and mortality, and clinicians have
increasingly used short-term mechanical circulatory support (MCS) over the last 15 years to …

Background: Cardiogenic shock (CS) is the most life-threatening manifestation of acute
heart failure. Its complexity and high in-hospital mortality may justify the need for invasive …

Cardiogenic shock (CS) remains a major cause of in-hospital mortality in the setting of acute
myocardial infarction. CS begins as a hemodynamic problem with impaired cardiac output …

Cardiogenic shock (CS) is associated with hemodynamic compromise and end-organ
hypoperfusion due to a primary cardiac etiology. In addition to vasoactive medications …

Background: Cardiogenic shock (CS) is a multifactorial, hemodynamically complex
syndrome associated with high mortality. Despite advances in reperfusion and mechanical …

Cardiogenic shock is a life-threatening condition that occurs in response to reduced cardiac
output in the presence of adequate intravascular volume and results in tissue hypoxia …

Background A central element in the management of cardiogenic shock (CS) comprises
mechanical circulatory support (MCS) systems to maintain cardiac output (CO). This study …
