About
Cardiogenic shock (CC) is one of the major challenges of current cardiology. Despite the difficulty of establishing a strict and consensual definition, it is accepted that the CC clinically corresponds to persistent hypotension (systolic blood pressure 90 mmHg for at least 30 minutes or need for vasopressor support) associated with signs of visceral hypoperfusion (confusion, mottling, oliguria, hyperlactatemia), and hemodynamic with a lowered heart index ( 1.8 L/min/m2) despite appropriate or high filling pressures. This definition of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) masks however the great variability of hemodynamic tables grouped under the term of CC and severity levels, also variable.However, it was suggested that the etiology of CC influenced both its hemodynamic profile and therefore its therapeutic management but also its prognosis in the medium and long term.
Full description
CC diagnosis remains difficult to carry on admission and is sometimes delayed. Therefore, we would like to compare hemodynamic data from patients with CC status to those admitted for acute heart failure (ICA) to determine if a hemodynamic variable at entry would facilitate the diagnosis of CC.
