Despite an increase in the incidence and haemodynamic severity of cardiogenic shock complicating acute myocardial infarction in Denmark from 2012 to 2017, survival rates remained unchanged.
Rising AMICS incidence with worsening severity but stable survival warrants monitoring; leaves open whether new strategies can improve outcomes.
The incidence rate of AMICS increased in the Danish population between 2012 and 2017. Fewer patients with STEMI developed CS, and haemodynamic severity of CS increased during the study period; however, survival rates remained unchanged.
