Age-related outcomes in patients with cardiogenic shock stratified by etiology.

ABSTRACT:

Background

As a result of improved and novel treatment strategies, the spectrum of patients with cardiovascular disease is consistently changing. Overall, those patients are typically older and characterized by increased burden with comorbidities. Limited data on the prognostic impact of age in cardiogenic shock (CS) is available. Therefore, this study investigates the prognostic impact of age in patients with CS.

Methods

From 2019 to 2021, consecutive patients with CS of any cause were included. The prognostic value of age (i.e., 60-80 years and > 80 years) was investigated for 30-day all-cause mortality. Spearman's correlations, Kaplan-Meier analyses, as well as multivariable Cox proportional regression analyses were performed for statistics. Subsequent risk assessment was
