1) Cardiopulmonary arrest and cardiogenic shock frequently result in severe acidemia because of the presence of both metabolic and respiratory acidosis.

2) Cardiogenic shock and sudden death have also been attributed to myocardial bridging.

3) Cardiogenic and obstructive shock: Cardiogenic shock is a relative or absolute reduction in cardiac output due to a primary cardiac disorder.

4) Methods : The clinical data of 42 AMIwith cardiogenic shock treated by IABP were retrospectively studied.

5) Cardiogenic shock: a failure in reperfusion. Time for a strategic change?

6) Windecker: cardiogenic shock is still a very malignant disease characterized by a high incidence of mortality.

7) My question is what are the predictors of clinical outcome after percutaneous treatment for cardiogenic shock?
