Abstract

In-hospital protocol to produce a Cardiocirculatory Support Team for the cardiogenic shock therapy. Objectives: Cardiogenic shock carries a very high mortality. Veno-Arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) using the PLS MAQUET (Rastatt, Germany) has been adopted as a first line treatment of Cardiogenic shock as a “bridge to decision” strategy. In the study the data coming from our clinical experience has been used to elaborate protocols in order to formulate an Organizational Project Methods: From January 2011 until December 2013 twenty-three ventricular assist devices have been implanted at our institution on patients with Cardiogenic Shock. Among all the patients treated, 6 patients developed cardiac shock after cardiac surgery, 10 developed cardiac shock during interventional cardiology procedures, 5 were patients with cardiac shock coming from the community and 2 patients developed ARDS after cardiac surgery. The Cannulation approach for the ECMO included Femoral Vein, Femoral artery, Axillary artery or internal Jugular Vein. Regarding the Cannulation technique, 12 (52.17%) were performed using a percutaneous approach with Seldiger Technique while 11(47.82%) were performed directly with surgical approach. Additional Intra-Aortic Balloon Pump devices were used in 10 patients (43.48%). Results: The mean Age of the patients was 63.2 yrs (Range 29-88). Twenty-two were male patients and one was female. Mean duration of the treatment was 3.34 days (Range 1-27 days). Thirteen patients were successfully weaned from ECMO (56.2%). After a follow-up period of up to 3 years the mortality at 30 days, 8 month, 12 month and 24 month were respectively 100%(13), 84.62% (11), 23.07% (3) and 7.69% (1). Ten patients (43.48%) died during ECMO secondary to multi-organ failure.
