Effect of Cardiogenic Shock Hospital Volume on Mortality in Patients With Cardiogenic Shock

Abstract: BackgroundCardiogenic shock (CS) is associated with significant morbidity, and mortality rates approach 40% to 60%. Treatment for CS requires an aggressive, sophisticated, complex, goal‐oriented, therapeutic regimen focused on early revascularization and adjunctive supportive therapies, suggesting that hospitals with greater CS volume may provide better care. The association between CS hospital volume and inpatient mortality for CS is unclear.Methods and ResultsWe used the Nationwide Inpatient Sample to examin… Show more

“…Mortality was 37%, 39.3%, 40.7%, and 42% in hospitals that treated ≥107, 59 to 106, 28 to 58, and <27 cases per year (P<0.05). 122 Of note, large-volume sites were more likely to be academic, located in urban areas, and serve as referral hubs. Reasons underpinning this finding have not been clearly elucidated, although we hypothesize that patients treated at high-volume hospitals may be more likely to receive evidence-based care and prompt revascularization by high-volume operators and that high-volume hospitals may include a multidisciplinary team who more frequently implements MCS and cares for patients with multisystem organ failure.…”

“…These possibilities warrant further inquiry, particularly given that recent work has shown that center volume of patients with cardiogenic shock is associated with improved patient outcomes. 29 It is important to consider wider contextual issues regarding clinical practice and policy in understanding the results we have established in this study. The United Kingdom has accommodated current international guidance with national recommendations that discourage low-volume centers with consistently <400 PCI cases per annum and encourage regular practice with a minimum annual operator activity of >75 cases per year.…”

“…Such hospitals are therefore better served partnering with larger institutions as part of a 'spoke and hub' model. [104][105][106][107][108] After Action Reviews Our cardiogenic shock team conducts novel cross-discipline meetings with clinical and non-clinical staff and leaders with 100 % case review. Data related to each shock patient (i.e.…”

“…Looking forward, in our region and across the US, new networks of partnered multidisciplinary care ought to emerge on a large scale to establish linked regional systems of community hospitals and large centralised centres of excellence emphasising rapid triage, immediate transport and expedited door-to-support for patients with CS, emulating the highly successful military and civilian trauma systems and the cardiovascular communities historical successes in early revascularisation for acute ST-elevation MI. 1,[104][105][106][107][108] Locally, having focused on our 'hub' medical centre ( Figure 5) in 2017, we are currently expanding our protocol and process to our linked 'spoke' hospitals (both internal and external to our health system) in 2018.…”
