Background: Cardiogenic shock occurring in the setting of advanced heart failure (HF-CS) is increasingly common. However, recent studies have focused almost exclusively on acute myocardial infarction-related CS. We sought to define clinical, hemodynamic, metabolic, and treatment parameters associated with clinical outcomes among patients with HF-CS, using data from the Cardiogenic Shock Working Group registry.

Background: Although PACs are used to guide CS management decisions, evidence supporting their optimal use in CS is lacking.
Methods: The Cardiogenic Shock Working Group (CSWG) collected retrospective data in CS patients from 8 tertiary care institutions from 2016 to 2019.
Article Synopsis
- The study evaluates the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions (SCAI) stages to determine their effectiveness in predicting in-hospital mortality for patients with cardiogenic shock (CS).
- Out of 1414 patients, those with myocardial infarction had a significantly higher mortality rate (41%) compared to those with heart failure (26%).
- The research indicates that increasing SCAI stages correspond with higher mortality risks, and elevated biventricular filling pressures indicate severe hemodynamic congestion, suggesting better management strategies may be needed for high-risk CS patients.
