Abstract

Introduction: Despite modern treatment methods, cardiogenic shock mortality complicates acute myocardial infarction (CS-AMI) remains high. Hypothesis: The study of factors affecting CS-AMI outcomes is essential. Methods: Data from the all-comers' National Registry of Coronary Interventions from 2016 to 2020 were evaluated. Of 50,745 patients with AMI (STEMI/NSTEMI) 2,822 patients (5.6%) had initially CS (72.6% men, mean age 67.6 (12) yrs). The study analyzed the predictive value of such traditional cardiovascular risk factors related to the MI (sex, age, previous PCI or CABG, renal failure, localization of MI, time delay to reperfusion), comorbidities (expressed by the Deyo modification of Charlson comorbidity index), the severity of the condition on admission (mechanical ventilation, resuscitation), the extent of coronary artery disease and procedural success (the number of affected vessels, TIMI flow before and after PCI, LM disease), and such untraditional factors as season, weekday and day time. Multivariable analysis was used to identify independent predictors of prognosis in patients with CS-AMI. Results: The 30days mortality was 50.7%. As independent predictors of prognosis were identified age (older 80yrs, OR 4.97;95% CI 3.73-6.61), resuscitation (1.34; 1.07-1.67), mechanical ventilation (1.39;1.10-1.75), 3-vessel disease 1.39;1.12-1.72), left main disease (1.26; 1.01-1.57), and post-procedural TIMI flow lower 3 (1.14; 0.79-1.66). The independent predictive value of the comorbidity index was not confirmed (1.062;0.796-1.417). The numerically higher mortality rate was shown during a) autumn time (54.2%) and winter (51.8%), b) weekend (51.45%) (vs. working week (50.03%)), c) working hours (49.3%) (vs. the after-working hours (47.6%)). The multivariate analysis did not confirm the independent predictive value of these variables. Conclusions: Mortality of CS-AMI patients is significantly and independently influenced by factors confounding their circulatory instability, such as resuscitation and respiratory failure, the extent of coronary disease, and the success of reperfusion therapy. The independent impact of comorbidity and non-traditional factors on the prognosis of these patients has not been confirmed.
