Management Patterns and Outcomes of Invasive Mechanical Ventilation in Patients With Cardiogenic Shock.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Approximately one-half of patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) require invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). Much of the data regarding IMV management is extrapolated from other populations, and little is known regarding management and outcomes of patients with CS who require IMV.

Objectives

This study aims to provide data on IMV management in a CS-specific cohort.

Methods

Retrospective study of 104 patients treated for CS requiring IMV at an academic safety net hospital from 2017 to 2023. Indications for IMV, ventilator settings, and medications were obtained. Outcomes included in-hospital mortality, survival to extubation, and reintubation.

Results

Reasons for intubation included ongoing cardiac arrest (37%) and hypoxic respiratory failure (32%).
