Cardiogenic Shock Management: A Framework for Individualized Microaxial Flow Pump Support.

Abstract excerpt

Cardiogenic shock (CS) is a highly heterogeneous syndrome with persistently high mortality despite advances in therapies, including temporary mechanical circulatory support. The disparate results of trials on temporary mechanical circulatory support in CS suggest that improved strategies, including better patient selection, are needed in the context of CS heterogeneity. Notably, a microaxial flow pump device has...
