Escalation strategies, management, and outcomes of acute myocardial infarction‐cardiogenic shock patients receiving percutaneous left ventricular support
Abstract:BackgroundThere are limited national‐level data on the contemporary practices of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) use in acute myocardial infarction‐cardiogenic shock (AMI‐CS).MethodsWe utilized the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project‐National/Nationwide Inpatient Sample data (2005–2017) to identify adult admissions (>18 years) with AMI‐CS.
