(1) : Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) in myocardial infarction-associated cardiogenic shock is subject to debate. This analysis aims to elucidate the impact of MCS's timing on patient outcomes, based on data from the PREPARE CS registry. (2) : The PREPARE CS prospective registry includes patients who experienced cardiogenic shock (SCAI classes C-E) and were subsequently referred for cardiac catheterization.

Article Synopsis
  • The ECLS-SHOCK trial showed that using VA-ECMO in patients with cardiogenic shock did not significantly affect overall mortality or secondary outcomes, despite high in-hospital death rates.
  • In a comparison of real-world CS patients in the PREPARE CS registry, only 38% qualified under the ECLS-SHOCK criteria, indicating a limited application of trial findings.
  • Patients who met these eligibility criteria had a 30-day mortality rate of 57%, which is higher than the 48.4% seen in the ECLS-SHOCK trial, suggesting that real-world outcomes may vary due to patient diversity.
