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.
Methods: We searched PubMed and EMBASE in July 2024.

Background: The role of pulsatile versus non-pulsatile flow during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is still in debate. This systematic review aimed to comprehensively assess the impact of pulsatile versus non-pulsatile flow on patients' recovery.
Methods: We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases for randomized controlled trials comparing pulsatile and non-pulsatile flow in cardiac surgeries with CPB.

Background: In cases of electrical storm, identifying the etiology is essential, as patients with reversible causes do not benefit from implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD). Given the diversity of pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic management tools available for hemodynamically unstable patients in electrical storm, all must be considered and tailored to each individual patient.
Case Description: This report describes a 36-year-old female without prior cardiac history who presented in ventricular fibrillation (VF) electrical storm.

Postinfarction ventricular septal rupture (PIVSR) is a rare but serious complication of acute myocardial infarction. Determining how to conduct surgical repair safely is critical. We compared the outcomes of Impella and intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) implantation during perioperative mechanical circulatory support management in patients with PIVSR (n = 22).

: In-hospital mortality associated with myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock (MI-CS) remains critically high. A particularly challenging form, mixed shock (MS), combines features of cardiogenic shock (CS) with distributive elements such as vasodilation and reduced vascular resistance. MS is associated with elevated mortality rates and presents unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.
