The Role of Impella in Cardiogenic Shock in the Post-DanGer Shock Era Open
The microaxial flow pump (mAFP) is a mechanical circulatory support device designed to directly unload the left ventricle, restore cardiac output, and improve systemic perfusion in the setting of cardiogenic shock (CS). CS is a devastating…

Association Between Frailty and Management and Outcomes of Acute Myocardial Infarction Complicated by Cardiogenic Shock Open
A high proportion of hospitalizations for AMI-CS had concomitant frailty. Hospitalizations with AMI-CS and frailty had higher rates of in-hospital morbidity and mortality compared to those without frailty.

Frailty and In-Hospital Outcomes for Management of Cardiogenic Shock without Acute Myocardial Infarction Open
(1) Background: Cardiogenic shock (CS) is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Frailty and cardiovascular diseases are intertwined, commonly sharing risk factors and exhibiting bidirectional relationships. The relationship of frai…

The association of timing of coronary artery bypass grafting for non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction and clinical outcomes in the contemporary United States Open
Background In contrast to the timing of coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention, the optimal timing of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) has not been determined. T…

NSTEMI Decide: Development of a Decision Aid for Older Adults with Non ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction Open
Background Many patients hospitalized with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) are older adults (age ≥75), in whom invasive coronary angiography confers potential benefits but also higher risks than the general population. Our …
