Lung injury in myocardial infarction-associated cardiogenic shock supported by venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: a scoping review.

ABSTRACT:

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.

Methods

We searched literature from January 1st, 2010, to December 31st, 2023, using MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Web of Science databases on February 27th, 2024. The search strategy was split into two ma
