Abstract

Cardiogenic shock remains a leading cause of early cardiac death. The mortality rate of cardiogenic shock as a complication of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) exceeds 80%. Large multicenter studies disclose an incidence of 5 to 15% of all instances of AMI admitted to the hospital [15]. Cardiogenic shock is in evidence at the time of hospital admission in only minority of patients. Approximately 90% of patients develop shock during the in hospital stay [5].
