Background Acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock (AMI‐CS) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices increase systemic blood pressure end organ perfusion while reducing cardiac filling pressures. Methods Results The National Cardiogenic Shock Initiative (NCT03677180) a single‐arm, multicenter study. purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility effectiveness utilizing early MCS Impella in patients...
Acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock (AMICS) is associated with high mortality. Patients ≥75 years old represent an increasing proportion of those who present AMICS and are at risk for adverse outcomes.The National Cardiogenic Shock Initiative includes patients treated using a standard protocol early invasive hemodynamic monitoring, mechanical circulatory support (MCS), percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We evaluated the outcomes based on their age group,...
