Cardiogenic shock (CGS) results in inadequate end organ perfusion and is associated with high mortality. For patients presenting with CGS following myocardial infarction (MI), reported rates of mortality range between 55% and 80% despite aggressive pharmacological therapy and use of the intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP). Patients with CGS due to ventricular septal defect (VSD) or ventricular… View more
