NCT01374867

Brief Summary

The aim of CardShock Study is to recognise significant prognostic factors in order to detect patients with increased mortality risk to which one could possibly direct more intensive treatments. The study will provide clinical, functional and invasive haemodynamic measures with systematic serial sampling and evaluation. In addition, the knowledge on the pathophysiology of cardiogenic shock is increased.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • All-cause mortality

    during follow-up additional analyses will be performed after ICU/CCU and total hospital stay,and at 90 and 180 days, In patients with impanted cardioverter defibrillator firing for fatal VTach or VFib is recorded

    participants will be followed for 1 year

  • Major cardiac interventions and implantation of devices

    Heart transplant, CABG, valve surgery, PCI etc and implantation of devices LVADs, CRT, ICD etc are recorded during follow-up.

    1 year

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Quality of life

    1-year

Hospitals

You may qualify if:

  • Cardiogenic shock with hypotension or severe low output syndrome within 6 hours from identification of it Clinical findings of cardiogenic shock: acute heart failure and
  • Hypotension (systolic blood pressure under 90mmHg despite adequate fluid challenge) over 30 min time
  • OR a need for vasopressor treatment (eg dopamine or norepinephrine) to maintain systolic blood pressure \> 90mmHg
  • AND signs of hypoperfusion (either altered mental status, cool periphery, oliguria (\< 0.5ml/kg/h for last six hours), or blood lactate \> 2 mmol/l)
  • Age \> 18 years
  • Written informed consent by patient or a close person or a relative if the patient is unable to give the consent on admission according to local regulations.

You may not qualify if:

  • Postoperative patients
  • Haemodynamically significant ongoing arrhythmia . (However, e.g. patient resuscitated from serious arrhythmia can be included if the arrhythmia is not ongoing at the time of detection of shock)
