Background Venoarterial (VA) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) application in
postcardiotomy shock (PCS) and non-PCS is increasing. VA-ECMO plays a critical role in …

Objective Elevated blood lactate levels are strongly associated with mortality in patients with
cardiogenic shock. Recent evidence suggests that the degree and rate at which blood …

Purpose ECMO support is an ultimate ratio therapy for patients in refractory cardiogenic
shock and is linked to high mortality. We assessed the dynamic characteristics of lactate …

Background To evaluate the prognostic value of peak serum lactate and lactate clearance at
several time points in cardiogenic shock treated with temporary mechanical circulatory …

Background The mortality of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction
(STEMI) and refractory cardiogenic shock (RCS) is high. Extracorporeal membrane …

The objective of this study is to establish reliable markers for mortality in children with
refractory cardiogenic shock who underwent extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. A …

Purpose Evaluate optic nerve sheath and pial diameters (ONSD, ONPD) via sonography
and computed tomography (CT) after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (CA) and to compare …

Background Refractory cardiac arrest resistant to conventional cardiopulmonary
resuscitation (C-CPR) has a poor outcome. Although previous reports showed that …

Background Accurate prediction of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) is very
important for the management of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients. We aimed to …
