Francesco Romeo (2012) conducted a case report in ST-elevation myocardial infarction with refractory cardiogenic shock. Impella LP 2.5 and intra-aortic balloon pump was evaluated. Combined use of Impella LP 2.5 and intra-aortic balloon pump was successfully employed in ST-elevation myocardial infarction with refractory cardiogenic shock.
