Cardiogenic shock complicates up to 10% of acute myocardial infarctions (AMIs) and is the leading cause of death after AMI. 1 Contemporary cardiogenic shock mortality trends are not well established. In this study, we present the mortality trends in AMICS from 1999 to 2019 based on U.S. national data, with a focus on subgroups of age, sex and race.
