Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
The therapy of infarct related cardiogenic shock should primarily focus on fastest possible revascularization. In addition, rapid restoration of sufficient organ perfusion pressure is recommended for the prevention of a multi-organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS). This can be achieved by mechanical circulatory assist devices as well as individual catecholamine therapy. Since assist devices require specially trained physicians, their use is limited to specialized cardiac care centers. However, future technologies such as portable heart-lung-machines may help to further improve transfer to specialized centers and therapy of shock patients. |
