Cardiogenic shock complicating acute myocardial infarction continues to have poor in-hospital and long-term survival, with no improvement in incidence or prognosis over time.
Persistent poor survival in AMI cardiogenic shock warrants clinical vigilance; leaves open the need for novel interventions in prospective trials.
The results of this observational, community-wide study suggest that neither the incidence nor the prognosis of cardiogenic shock resulting from acute myocardial infarction has improved over time. Both in-hospital and long-term survival remain poor for patients with this complication.
