Prognosis of Cardiogenic Shock with and Without Acute Myocardial Infarction: Results from a Prospective, Monocentric Registry

The study investigates the prognostic impact of cardiogenic shock (CS) stratified by the presence or absence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Intensive care unit (ICU) related mortality in CS patients remains unacceptably high despite improvement concerning the treatment of CS patients. Consecutive patients with CS from 2019 to 2021 were included monocentrically. The prognostic impact of CS related to AMI was compared to patients without AMI-related CS. The primary endpoint was 30-day all-cause mortality. Statistical analyses included Kaplan–Meier analyses, multivariable Cox proportional regression analyses and propensity score matching. 273 CS patients were included (AMI-related CS: 49
