The Current Status and Clinical OUTcomes of Cardiogenic Shock Patients And the Role of Specialist in Cardiovascular Critical Care Unit
In the case of cardiogenic shock, the early mortality rate is the highest compared to other types of shock, but it is characterized by a good prognosis and quality of life after recovery, so monitoring the treatment progress is very important to identify the patient's prognosis. However, there are few studies specifically reported on hemodynamic monitoring and prognosis of cardiogenic shock. In addition, as mechanical circulatory support devices are in the spotlight, studies on their effects and safety are starting, but studies on cardiogenic shock are often limited to patients with myocardial infarction.
This study is a prospective and retrospective cohort observational study, we aim to identify factors that can improve prognosis, including various drug treatments, diagnostic techniques, and mechanical circulatory support device by investigating the treatment status and clinical outcomes of patients with cardiogenic shock hospitalized in cardiovascular critical care unit. In addition, the purpose of this study is to investigate the association between the prognosis of patients with cardiogenic shock and the presence of a specialist resident during regular work hours to clarify the role and necessity of a resident specialist in the cardiovascular intensive care unit.
Furthermore, by predicting and treating the clinical course of patients with cardiogenic shock at an early stage, the aim is to reduce the mortality rate and improve the patients' ability to perform daily activities.
Inclusion Criteria:
(prospective)
Patients over 19-year-old
Patients who are hospitalized in the cardiovascular critical care unit for cardiogenic shock or reduced blood pressure due to other causes.
2-1) In the event that the systolic blood pressure is less than 90mmHg for at least 30 minutes despite fluid treatment, or the use of vasopressor drug is required to maintain systolic blood pressure more than 90mmHg.
2-2) patients have at least one of the symptoms of peripheral tissue hypoperfusion (cold skin, urineoutput < 30cc/ hour, decreased consciousness, lactate > 2.0mmol/l) or pulmonary edema.
