• Abstract:

  Cardiogenic shock (CS), one of the most serious cardiovascular emergencies, is characterized by a critical drop in cardiac output and tissue hypoperfusion, resulting in progressive organ dysfunction and high mortality rates. Mainly associated with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), CS is the leading cause of hospital death in patients with this condition. This study aims to investigate the management of CS in the context of AMI, focusing on early revascularization strategies and their effects on clinical outcomes. Recent evidence on the effectiveness of interventions such as percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) was analyzed, in addition to the challenges in choosing the appropriate therapeutic approach. The need for well-defined protocols to improve survival and reduce complications is highlighted, with an emphasis on personalizing treatment according to patient characteristics.
