Temporal trends in incidence, causes, use of mechanical circulatory support and mortality in cardiogenic shock

Benedikt Schrage et al.

Summary: This nationwide study in Germany from 2005 to 2017 revealed an increasing incidence of cardiogenic shock, with acute myocardial infarction being the most common cause initially but decreasing in proportion over time. Although there was a shift towards using novel mechanical circulatory support devices, mortality remained high for cardiogenic shock despite these advancements.

Utilization of Medical Codes for Hypotension in Shock Patients: A Retrospective Analysis

Charles Hunley et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the utilization of hypotension diagnosis codes in known hypotensive patients with different types of shock and years, showing that patients with hypovolemic shock were most likely to receive a hypotension code, while septic shock cases had the lowest rate. Additionally, there was a fluctuation in the proportion of patients with hypotension codes between 2011 and 2017.

Fifteen-Year Trends in Incidence of Cardiogenic Shock Hospitalization and In-Hospital Mortality in the United States

Mohammed Osman et al.

Summary: The hospitalization rate attributed to cardiogenic shock tripled between 2004 and 2018, while there was a slow decline in in-hospital mortality associated with cardiogenic shock during the same period. Consistent reductions in mortality rates were observed across different demographics and hospital characteristics, indicating an overall positive trend in patient outcomes.
