PRospective REgistry of PAtients in REfractory cardiogenic shock-The PREPARE CardShock registry.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

Cardiogenic shock (CS) is a hemodynamically complex multisystem syndrome associated with persistently high morbidity and mortality. As CS is characterized by progressive failure to provide adequate systemic perfusion, supporting end-organ perfusion using mechanical circulatory support (MCS) seems intriguing. Since most patients with CS present in the catheterization laboratory, percutaneously implantable systems have the widest adoption in the field. We evaluated feasibility, outcomes, and complications after the introduction of a full-percutaneous program for both the Impella CP device and venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenator (VA-ECMO).

Methods

PREPARE CardShock (PRospective REgistry of PAtients in REfractory cardiogenic shock) is a prospective single-center
