Predictors of Outcomes in Myocardial Infarction and Cardiogenic Shock

Deepak Acharya. Cardiol Rev. 2018 Sep/Oct.

Abstract

Myocardial infarction (MI) complicated by cardiogenic shock (MI-CS) is a major cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Predictors of outcomes in MI-CS include clinical, laboratory, radiologic variables, and management strategies. This article reviews the existing literature on short- and long-term predictors and risk stratification in MI complicated by CS.
