Optimization of Hybrid Hemodynamics from Mechanical Support Devices in Cardiogenic Shock
… of multiple hemodynamic metrics that define the shock and MCS-supported states and a framework by which to appreciate MCS with adjunctive pharmacologic and mixed mechanical modalities. Indeed, optimum support was defined by the balance of these metrics which can best be reduced to matching of …

Hypothermia as an adjunctive therapy in Acute Myocardial Infarction and Cardiogenic Shock
… Finally, the effects of hypothermia in cardiogenic shock were investigated. MATERIAL and METHODS: For paper I-III, an experimental closed chest porcine model was used. Ischemia was induced by occlusion of the LAD using a PCI-balloon. Different hypothermia protocols using cold saline, …

Cardiogenic shock; focus on ventilatory strategies, the elderly, and biomarker-based risk stratification
Cardiogenic shock (CS) is the most severe form of acute heart failure (HF) characterized by hypotension and systemic hypoperfusion caused by cardiac dysfunction. Prolonged hypotension provokes neurohumoral compensatory mechanisms and systemic inflammatory responses, leading to organ injury followed …

Outcomes of patients transferred to the University of Michigan health system on a short-term ventricular assist device for cardiogenic shock
… used to temporarily support a patient who is in cardiogenic shock. These VADs are effective in sustaining a patient’s life until he or she can been transferred to a tertiary cardiac center such as the University of Michigan Health System. The researcher examined patients’ clinical status at the …

Cardioprotective treatment strategies
… (paper IV), and on systemic t-PA release in cardiogenic shock (paper V) were also studied. An experimental porcine ischemia/reperfusion model was used. Infarct size (IS), microvascular obstruction and area at risk (AAR) were measured with ex-vivo MRI and SPECT. ADC-1004 treatment (paper I) …

Outcomes after Apheresis in patients with underlying Heart Failure: A Propensity Matched National Cohort Analysis
… accident, major bleeding, sudden cardiac arrest, cardiogenic shock, mechanical circulatory support, mechanical ventilation, calcium abnormalities, fluid and electrolyte disturbances, coagulation abnormalities, and severe sepsis. Results: Apheresis in patients with HF had a higher percentage of …

A Novel Trajectory Vector Approach for Characterizing Dynamic Changes in the Performance-Load Representation of Cardiac State
… relationship for application in the context of cardiogenic shock. The performance-load relationship is an expansion on the Frank-Starling mechanism that allows traditional metrics of preload to be correlated with afterload, combining both types of load into a more comprehensive general cardiac …

Mechanical circulatory support in patients with severe heart failure
… emergency treatment of patients in refractory cardiogenic shock. Fifty-two patients with cardiogenic shock were included in the study and were split into two groups: those without previous surgery (n=19), and those treated after surgery (n=33). We noted a fairly good survival rate (63%) in the …

Control and monitoring of an intra-aortic balloon pump for cardiac assist
… by a description of the causes and results of cardiogenic shock is given. A survey of the achievements of other researchers in this field is included. The design of a system for controlling and monitoring the Intra-Aortic Balloon Pump is described. A narrow band-pass filter is used to reduce …

Leveraging Right and Left Ventricular Coupling for Optimization of Mechanical Circulatory Support
… have the potential for profound impact on cardiogenic shock patients. They enable volume propulsion and pressure gradient generation first by unloading and later by decoupling native cardio-vascular interactions, which reduces cardiac load and energy consumption while increasing organ …

Evaluation der Ergebnisse von Notfall-Bypass-Operationen der Klinik für Thorax-, Herz- und Gefäßchirurgie der Universität Aachen im Zeitraum von August 2001 bis April 2006
… All in all 9 patients (16%) were in the state of cardiogenic shock, 4 of them (7%) were supported by intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation. 13 patients (23%) were operated immediately after PCI failure. The most frequent preoperative risk factors were arterial hypertension (86%), myocardial …

The prognostic value of electrocardiography to predict inpatient mortality in patients with acute pulmonary embolism: a retrospective cohort analysis
… predictors of haemodynamic decompensation, cardiogenic shock, and even mortality. This study aims to assess the prognostic value of electrocardiography in predicting inpatient mortality in patients with acute pulmonary embolism, as diagnosed with computed tomography pulmonary angiogram. …

The effect of alcohol intoxication on haemodynamic physiology of acute cardiac tamponade
… is also thought to have a detrimental effect in shock states. However, most research has concentrated on haemorrhagic shock, whereas in cardiac tamponade, the pathophysiology of shock is very different. Although some studies have mentioned alcohol as a negative factor in patients with cardiac …

TRANSCORONARY COOLING AND DILUTION FOR CARDIOPROTECTION DURING REVASCULARISATION FOR ST-SEGMENT ELEVATION MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION: THE STEMI-COOL PILOT STUDY.
… care (SOC) pPCI or pPCI with TCCD. Patients in cardiogenic shock or resuscitated after cardiac arrest were also included. Up to 750 mL of room temperature normal saline (NS) was infused through the guiding catheter in the culprit vessel using a pressure bag, starting before crossing the …

Die Bedeutung von Endocannabinoiden im kardiogenen Schock und bei der Entwicklung der chronischen Herzinsuffizienz
Es konnte gezeigt werden, dass die in Monozyten und in Thrombozyten produzierten Cannabinoide Anandamid und 2-Arachidonylglycerol zur Blutdruckernierdrigung nach akutem Myokradinfarkt der Ratte beitragen. Durch CB1-Rezeptor-Blockade wurde der Abfall des arteriellen Mitteldruckes verhindert, aber …
