A 53-year-old male with chest pain complicated with cardiogenic shock was presented to the emergency department. The electrocardiogram showed features of acute myocardial infarction due to left main coronary artery oc...
Introduction: Functional integrity of the hypothalamic pituitary axis is disrupted during severe infection or stress. The observed blunted response to corticotropin was interpreted as impaired secretory reserve of the...
BACKGROUND Cardiogenic shock (CS) secondary to acute myocardial infarction (AMI) complicates management of the condition, and often leads to poor prognosis. Prompt and accurate monitoring of cardiovascular and accompa...
INTRODUCTION The intra-aortic balloon pump(IABP)is commonly used as a cardiac assist device in various clinical situations,including cardiogenic shock,mechanical complications of acute myocardial infarction,high risk ...
