AMI Cardiogenic Shock

Procedure

 

Good Outcomes in Cardiogenic Shock Are Associated With:

  • Early shock recognition1
  • Initiation of Impella® support pre-PCI
  • Less use of inotropes and vasopressors
  • Use of right heart catheterization (RHC) to optimize therapy1
  • Timely escalation of care

Unloading Pre-PCI Associated with Improved AMI Cardiogenic Shock Outcome
