Background: Acute lung injury and acute respiratory failure are frequent complications of cardiogenic shock and are associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Even with increased use of temporary mechanical circulatory support, such as venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO), acute lung injury related to cardiogenic shock continues to have a determinantal effect on patient outcomes.
Objectives: To summarize potential mechanisms of acute lung injury described in patients with cardiogenic shock supported by VA-ECMO and determine current knowledge gaps.

Acute Heart Failure (AHF) is a leading cause of death and represents the most frequent cause of unplanned hospital admission in patients older than 65 years. Since the past decade, several randomized clinical trials have highlighted the importance and pivotal role of certain therapeutics, including decongestion by the combination of loop diuretics, the need for rapid goal-directed medical therapies implementation before discharge, risk stratification, and early follow-up after discharge therapies. Cardiogenic shock, defined as sustained hypotension with tissue hypoperfusion due to low cardiac output and congestion, is the most severe form of AHF and mainly occurs after acute myocardial infarction, which can progress to multiple organ failure.
