2. Definition
Serious condition that occurs when heart cannot pump enough
blood and oxygen to the brain, kidneys, and other vital organs.
low cardiac output, end-organ hypoperfusion and hypoxia
Hypotension refractory to volume resuscitation
end-organ hypoperfusion requiring pharmacological or mechanical
intervention
AMI with LV dysfunction is the most frequent cause
In-hospital mortality high(27-51%)

4. Epidemiology
Jones TL, et al. Open Heart 2019;6:e000960
AMI with LV failure 60-80% of
cardiogenic shock(CS).
Higher incidences of CS are observed
in women, Asian/Pacific Islanders, and
patients >75 years.
Survivors of MI‐associated CS have an
18.6% risk of 30‐day readmission after
discharge, with a median time of
10 days.
5. Epidemiology
The initial cardiac insult may stem
from various etiologies
- AMI-CS is typically associated with >40%
loss of left ventricular (LV) myocardium
- Mechanical complications may also
precipitate AMI-CS
- CS may additionally occur in patients
with heart failure
- Post-cardiotomy CS complicates 0.1% to
0.5% of cardiac surgeries
JACC: heart failure.2020:879-91
7. In the setting of CS, classic ACS symptoms and signs are combined
with altered mental status, hypotension, arrhythmia, diminished
pulses, dyspnea, peripheral edema, jugular venous distention, and
orthopnea
Clinical presentation and physical examination
8. Cool extremities and signs of pul. Congestion: cold & wet
Euvolemic(previous MI or CKD): dry & cold
Systemic inflammatory response system or sepsis with MI: wet &warm
Clinical presentation and physical examination
9. Cardiogenic shock classification
Catheter Cardiovasc Interv. 2019;94:29–37
• Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions(SCAI) clinical expert
consensus statement on the classification of cardiogenic shock
• The(A) modifier is applied to describe patients who have had a cardiac arrest
irrespective of duration.
18. Stabilization and resuscitation strategy
• Continuous renal replacement therapy
CRRT: stage 2 kidney injury as defined by elevated serum creatinine (≥2 x baseline) and urine output
<0.5 mL/ kg per hour for ≥12 hours
• Hemodynamic monitoring
BP, arterial line, continuous pulse oximetry, temperature, respiratory rate, urinary output monitoring
Mixed venous oxygen saturation (SvO2)
- measured from a sample of blood from the central venous system, ideally from the distal port of a
pulmonary artery catheter
- low SvO2: reduced CO, anemia, hypoxemia, or increased oxygen consumption
Echocardiography and catheterization are used together to assess the hemodynamic response to
intervention
Pulmonary artery catheter (PAC)
- precise measurements of fluid states, central venous oxygen saturation, response to therapy, and
indicates the effectiveness of ventricular support
20. MCS(Mechanical circulatory support) devices
• In CS, end diastolic and systolic
volumes increase, stroke volume
decreases, and end systolic
pressure decreases reflecting the
overall reduction in LV contractility
and output.
• MCS devices alter hemodynamics
in an attempt to restore CO and
normalise perfusion pressures
• IABP(intra‐aortic balloon pump)
• Axial flow pumps(Impella)
• Left atrial-to-femoral arterial ventricular
assist devices(Tandem heart)
• ECMO(venous‐arterial extracorporeal
membrane oxygenation )
21.
22. MCS devices(Mechanical circulatory support)
• IABP
IABP decrease myocardial oxygen consumption, increase coronary artery
perfusion, decrease afterload and modestly increase cardiac output (0.8–1L/min)
Patients with CS with post AMI mechanical complication
It can be considered in select patients with profound CS when other MCS
devices are not available, are contraindicated, or cannot be placed
• ECMO
Drainage of venous blood, passing it through an oxygenator and returning
the oxygenated blood to systemic circulation using a centrifugal pump
Performed centrally by cannulation of the right atrium and aorta or peripherally with cannulation of
the femoral artery and vein
V-A ECMO may be the preferred temporary MCS option when there is poor oxygenation that is not
expected to rapidly improve with an alternative temporary MCS device or during CPR
23. • Coronary angiography
The most important investigation in
patients diagnosed with CS is coronary
angiography
Identify the precise location of the lesion
that precipitated CS
• PCI strategy
Coronary reperfusion is an essential
therapeutic intervention for patients with
ACS complicated by CS
• Heart transplantation
Cardiac transplantation, particularly for
patients requiring biventricular MCS, often
represents the only hope for meaningful,
long-term recovery.
Stabilization and resuscitation strategy
24. • Critically ill patients are at risk of developing
complications such as ventilator-associated
pneumonia, delirium, ICU-acquired weakness,
central line–associated bloodstream infection,
stress ulcers, and venous thromboembolism
• These complications are associated with an
increased risk of morbidity, mortality, and length
of stay
