Purpose: Invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) is widely used in patients with cardiogenic shock following acute myocardial infarction (AMICS), but evidence to guide practice remains sparse. We sought to evaluate trends in the rate of IMV utilization, applied settings, and short term-outcome of a contemporary cohort of AMICS patients treated with IMV according to out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) at admission.
Methods: Consecutive AMICS patients receiving IMV in an intensive care unit (ICU) at two tertiary centres between 2010 and 2017. Data were analysed in relation to OHCA.
Results: A total of 1274 mechanically ventilated AMICS patients were identified, 682 (54%) with OHCA. Frequency of IMV increased during the study period, primarily due to higher occurrence of OHCA admissions. Among 566 patients with complete ventilator data, positive-end-expiratory pressure, inspired oxygen fraction, and minute ventilation during the initial 24 h in ICU were monitored. No differences were observed between 30-day survivors and non-survivors with OHCA. In non-OHCA, these ventilator requirements were significantly higher among 30-day non-survivors (P for all<0.05), accompanied by a lower PaO2/FiO2 ratio (median 143 vs. 230, P < 0.001) and higher arterial lactate levels (median 3.5 vs. 1.5 mmol/L, P < 0.001) than survivors. Physiologically normal PaO2 and pCO2 levels were achieved in all patients irrespective of 30-day survival and OHCA status.
Conclusion: In the present contemporary cohort of AMICS patients, physiologically normal blood gas values were achieved both in OHCA and non-OHCA in the early phase of admission. However, increased demand of ventilatory support was associated with poorer survival only in non-OHCA patients.

Background: Despite the high mortality of cardiogenic shock after acute myocardial infarction (AMI-CS), the comparative efficacy and safety of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) in patients with AMI-CS is unknown. This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of various MCS with initial medical therapy for AMI-CS patients.

Data regarding cardiogenic shock (CS) from safety-net hospitals serving socioeconomically-disadvantaged patients are limited. In addition, little is known regarding long-term outcomes and management of heart failure-related CS (HF-CS), a population potentially especially vulnerable to adverse social determinants of health (SDOH). A single-center retrospective cohort study of patients with Stage C, D, or E CS at a public safety-net hospital between 2017-2023 was performed.

However, information on the characteristics of non-responders is limited. This study evaluated the risk factors associated with 30-day mortality in a cohort of patients with AMICS, on IABP support.

Despite concerted efforts to rapidly identify patients with cardiogenic shock complicating acute myocardial infarction (AMI-CS) and provide timely revascularization, early mortality remains stubbornly high. While artificially augmenting systemic flow through the use of temporary mechanical circulatory support (tMCS) devices would be expected to reduce the rate of progression to multi-organ dysfunction and thereby enhance survival, reliable evidence for benefit has remained elusive with lingering questions regarding the appropriate selection of both patients and devices, as well as the timing of device implantation relative to other critical interventions. Further complicating matters are the resource-intensive multidisciplinary systems of care that must be brought to bear in this complex patient population.

Acute myocardial infarction-related cardiogenic shock (AMI-CS) is a severe, life-threatening condition characterised by inadequate tissue perfusion due to the heart's inability to pump blood effectively. The pathophysiology of AMI-CS usually arises from the sudden loss of myocardial contractility, leading to a decrease in cardiac output and systemic hypoperfusion. In approximately 90% of AMI-CS cases, the left ventricle is the primary site of dysfunction.
