Introduction Cardiogenic shock (CS) is a low cardiac output state leading to life-threatening end-organ hypoperfusion and hypoxia.1 One of the most common causes of CS is acute myocardial infarction (AMI) often caused by an acute compromise in epicardial coronary artery blood flow, resulting in myocardial tissue damage and cardiac output reduction.2 Microcirculatory hypoperfusion and reduced tissue oxygen delivery represent the most prominent steps in the pathophysiological cascade of CS and...
Further, serial biomarker measurement in HF management has received growing interest for outcome prediction. 15 , 16 However, most authors assessed biomarkers only on admission and pointed out rare time points to re‐measure, for example, prior to discharge. 7 Indeed, little is known about the exact trajectory of biomarkers during an episode of decompensation, and there has not been a comparison of the prognostic performance of serial measurements.
