Key result
Cardiogenic shock complicating ACS is linked to ~66% in-hospital mortality in Yemeni patients.
Why the study?
Nationwide data on ACS were lacking in Yemen, and the prognostic importance and impact of cardiogenic shock on patient outcomes needed to be characterized.
Observational (n=1,054)
Yes
In Yemeni patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome, cardiogenic shock is a frequent complication associated with extremely high in-hospital mortality, highlighting the urgent need for improved primary PCI access and heart failure management.
High mortality with cardiogenic shock in Yemeni ACS warrants attention; leaves open optimal strategies in similar settings.

Munibari et al. (2023) conducted an observational in Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) (n=1,054). Cardiogenic shock vs. ACS without cardiogenic shock was evaluated on All-cause in-hospital mortality (p=<0.001). Cardiogenic shock complicating acute coronary syndrome in Yemeni patients was associated with a significantly higher in-hospital mortality rate of 66.2% compared to 4.8% in patients without it.
